Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: President Donald Trump has made a very bold move. He
- 0:03Speaker 1: has paused to plan US military strikes on Iran for
- 0:07Speaker 1: five days, and he's making it crystal clear. This is
- 0:11Speaker 1: Iran's window. This is their chance to make a deal
- 0:16Speaker 1: or face the consequences. Now, over the weekend, something major shifted.
- 0:21Speaker 1: According to President Trump, there has been what he called
- 0:25Speaker 1: very good and productive conversations with Iran, and he doubled down,
- 0:30Speaker 1: saying the US Iran already have major points of agreement.
- 0:36Speaker 2: Yes, that is good news.
- 0:38Speaker 1: After weeks of escalating conflict, after strikes and threats and
- 0:42Speaker 1: global tension, we are now potentially within days of an
- 0:46Speaker 1: actual deal, and Trump is giving diplomacy yet again another
- 0:51Speaker 1: chance to succeed. The President asked about this on the
- 0:56Speaker 1: tarmac and Palm Beach this morning, and here's what he said.
- 1:01Speaker 3: If these talks go well, when you reach a ceasefire
- 1:04Speaker 3: with Iran, do you believe Israel would abide by that agreement.
- 1:08Speaker 4: I think Israel will be very happy with what we have.
- 1:12Speaker 4: We just spoke to Israel a little while ago. I
- 1:16Speaker 4: think they'll be very happy. This will be peace for Israel,
- 1:19Speaker 4: long term, piece, guaranteed piece. If this happens and you know,
- 1:23Speaker 4: I can't guarantee it, but I think it's going to
- 1:26Speaker 4: And my.
- 1:27Speaker 2: Life is a deal. That's all I do is deals,
- 1:29Speaker 2: my whole life.
- 1:30Speaker 4: I think this is something that's going to happen, and
- 1:32Speaker 4: why wouldn't it happen? So tomorrow morning, sometime their time,
- 1:38Speaker 4: we were expected to blow up their largest electric generating
- 1:43Speaker 4: plants that costs over ten billion dollars to build, so
- 1:48Speaker 4: very good one there was no dearth of.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Money and.
- 1:52Speaker 4: One shot it's gone, it collapses. Why would they want that?
- 1:58Speaker 4: So they call? I didn't call. They called. They want
- 2:02Speaker 4: to make a deal, and we are very willing to
- 2:05Speaker 4: make a deal. It's got to be a good deal,
- 2:07Speaker 4: and it's got to be no more wars, no more
- 2:09Speaker 4: nuclear weapons. They're not going to have nuclear weapons anymore.
- 2:12Speaker 4: They're agreeing to that. Any of that stuff is no deal.
- 2:17Speaker 1: Any of that stuff, there is no deal. Now, this
- 2:21Speaker 1: is not open ended diplomacy. That's when the President made
- 2:24Speaker 1: clear this is classic Trump's strategy, pressure, leverage and results.
- 2:30Speaker 1: He's delayed the strike on Ram's energy infrastructure, given negotiators
- 2:34Speaker 1: five days to finalize the terms, and made it clear
- 2:38Speaker 1: that military options are still on the table.
- 2:42Speaker 5: Now.

- 4:06Speaker 1: after THE us And israel put massive pressure On iran's.
- 4:10Speaker 1: Leadership their, military their, economy and Now iran is at the,
- 4:15Speaker 1: table whether they admit it publicly or. Not, now What
- 4:20Speaker 1: trump demands in the deal is also. Important let's talk
- 4:24Speaker 1: about actually what is, required because that is obviously. Key
- 4:28Speaker 1: The United states position Under President trump is firm and
- 4:32Speaker 1: non negotiable on core. Issues Number, one no nuclear weapons Period,
- 4:39Speaker 1: iran The president, says must fully abandon any path to
- 4:44Speaker 1: a nuclear. Weapon this includes limits on uranium enrichment as
- 4:49Speaker 1: well as. Inspections this has Been trump's redline from day.
- 4:54Speaker 1: One iran cannot have a nuclear. Weapon Number two in
- 4:59Speaker 1: the de missile program, Restrictions iran must scale back its
- 5:05Speaker 1: ballistic missile. Capabilities The president said that is also a non,
- 5:10Speaker 1: negotiable especially missiles that THREATEN us allies and are. Forces Number,
- 5:17Speaker 1: three The White house said they have to in support
- 5:20Speaker 1: for terror. Groups that is something That iran loves to.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Do The president, said no more backing Of, hesblat no
- 5:29Speaker 1: more backing Of, hamas and no more backing of The houthi.
- 5:33Speaker 1: Rebels this is about shutting Down iran's influence across The
- 5:38Speaker 1: Middle east when it comes to funneling, money, training, aiding
- 5:42Speaker 1: and supporting terrorist. Organizations The president also said they must
- 5:48Speaker 1: reopen the global energy flow that is known as The
- 5:53Speaker 1: strait Of, hormuz And iran must reopen the strait. Immediately
- 5:58Speaker 1: it's a critical oil route that has been disrupted and
- 6:01Speaker 1: shut down and held hostage By. Iran now that's huge
- 6:05Speaker 1: because global energy markets have been. Shaken you've seen it
- 6:09Speaker 1: at the price of the. Pump oil prices of, surge
- 6:12Speaker 1: And trump's move depause strikes actually sent markets soaring and
- 6:17Speaker 1: oil prices dropping. Immediately, Now trump's message again To iran was,
- 6:22Speaker 1: simple it's, this make the deal and avoid. Destruction don't
- 6:28Speaker 1: and the consequences are coming. Earlier by the, way he
- 6:32Speaker 1: Warned iran that failed to reach a deal would lead
- 6:34Speaker 1: to really bad.
- 6:36Speaker 2: Things that's not. Vague that's a.
- 6:38Speaker 1: Clear, message backed by real military power and already Pounding
- 6:44Speaker 1: iran and making it clear we will not stop until
- 6:48Speaker 1: we have. Success so here's where we. Are the conflict
- 6:52Speaker 1: has already killed thousands of, people threatened global oil, supply
- 6:56Speaker 1: disrupted markets nationwide or i should say, worldwide and The
- 7:01Speaker 1: strait Of, ormuz one of the most critical shipping lanes On,
- 7:04Speaker 1: earth has been at risk of shutting down. Entirely so
- 7:08Speaker 1: now for the first time the president is announcing we
- 7:11Speaker 1: have real opening for a. Deal there are major points
- 7:15Speaker 1: already of agreement already in, place and there's a deadline
- 7:20Speaker 1: forcing the. Action President trump's strategy piece through, strength is.
- 7:25Speaker 1: Clear this is why so many are saying that he's
- 7:28Speaker 1: doing exactly in many ways What Ronald reagan. Did no
- 7:32Speaker 1: weakness and no endless. Negotiations pressure, first diplomacy, second and results.
- 7:40Speaker 1: Fast trump applied overwhelming pressure militarily and now economic. Pressure
- 7:46Speaker 1: iran is being forced into a choice that's not. Accidental
- 7:51Speaker 1: that is literally The trump doctrine or The trump. Strategy,
- 7:55Speaker 1: now let's be honest about one. Thing iran is publicly
- 7:59Speaker 1: denying the. Talks that is not. Surprising iran is also
- 8:04Speaker 1: doing the complete oppice of that behind the, scenes and
- 8:07Speaker 1: part of it could be to hold their country. Together
- 8:10Speaker 1: multirole reports confirm conversations are happening through intermediaries and negotiators
- 8:16Speaker 1: are engaging and agreeing on points of a. Deal, progress
- 8:21Speaker 1: they say is being made at a rapid, pace and
- 8:24Speaker 1: that's how diplomacy often works at this. Level one other
- 8:28Speaker 1: important point that also needs to be made clear is
- 8:31Speaker 1: there are many around the world that are actually supporting
- 8:33Speaker 1: the president.
- 8:34Speaker 2: And how he's Handling. IRAN a great example of.
- 8:37Speaker 1: That as A Nato Secretary, general he went into full
- 8:41Speaker 1: praise mode On Fox News sunday For President trump's war Against.
- 8:46Speaker 1: Iran listen carefully to the words the NATO's Secretary general
- 8:50Speaker 1: said about the president's.
- 8:51Speaker 2: Strategy, yeah can you give us any more concrete direction on?
- 8:55Speaker 4: That?
- 8:56Speaker 5: Logistically will they be sending, ships will they be sending air,
- 8:59Speaker 5: support will they be sending people in? Personnel, well let
- 9:03Speaker 5: me first of all say THAT i know there's a
- 9:04Speaker 5: lot of debate in THE us and The europe where
- 9:07Speaker 5: this campaign of the president Against iran was, necessary and.
- 9:11Speaker 2: Let me tell you it. Is it is crucial.
- 9:14Speaker 5: That the president at THE us is doing this and
- 9:16Speaker 5: to take out the nucle capability and the Bastic mishar,
- 9:19Speaker 5: capability because this is posing a. Threat it is an
- 9:22Speaker 5: existential threat To, israel it is a threat to the,
- 9:24Speaker 5: region it is a threat To, europe to the whole,
- 9:27Speaker 5: world and so it is really crucial that THE us
- 9:30Speaker 5: is doing. This AND i hope that people understand that,
- 9:33Speaker 5: argument even if they're doubting whether it was necessary or,
- 9:36Speaker 5: not it is necessary and a command to president's leadership on.
- 9:38Speaker 1: This that is THE Nato Secretary general who just said
- 9:43Speaker 1: that about the. President so here is the big. Takeaway
- 9:47Speaker 1: The president has paused the military. Strikes he has opened
- 9:51Speaker 1: the door to a real. Deal he said a hard
- 9:54Speaker 1: five day deadline and made THE us demands crystal. Clear
- 10:00Speaker 1: so the ball now is In iran's. Court make the
- 10:03Speaker 1: deal or face what comes. Next now this is one
- 10:07Speaker 1: of those moments that can reshape the, world and right
- 10:10Speaker 1: now we are just days away from fighting. Out Does
- 10:14Speaker 1: iran choose some sort of peace or does this escalate even.
- 10:19Speaker 1: Further The president of The United states Of america clearly
- 10:23Speaker 1: giving diplomacy another, chance and If iran chooses to go
- 10:27Speaker 1: in the other, DIRECTION i think it's very clear The
- 10:30Speaker 1: president is willing to. Act crime In. America it is,
- 10:36Speaker 1: dropping and it's not happening by. Accident it's happening because
- 10:40Speaker 1: for the first time in, years there is a president
- 10:43Speaker 1: in The White house who made one thing clear from day.
- 10:46Speaker 2: One we're going to go back to.
- 10:49Speaker 1: Policing we are going to enforce the laws that we
- 10:53Speaker 1: have on the, books and we're going to take our
- 10:56Speaker 1: streets back so that All americans can feel. Safe, now
- 11:00Speaker 1: let's talk, facts because the numbers are truly incredible and
- 11:04Speaker 1: they don't. Lie across the, country major cities are reporting
- 11:08Speaker 1: double digit drops and violent crime in many liberal metro,
- 11:13Speaker 1: Areas homicides are down significantly from their recent, peaks property
- 11:19Speaker 1: crime stabilizing after years of spikes in some. Cities we're
- 11:23Speaker 1: seeing murder rates down ten to twenty percent year over.
- 11:28Speaker 1: Year shootings are declining as targeted enforcement is ramped up
- 11:32Speaker 1: Under trump's, leadership and law enforcement officials are pointing to
- 11:36Speaker 1: some very specific things that are allowing for all this to.
- 11:40Speaker 1: Happen number, one a shift in federal posture that all
- 11:46Speaker 1: because of the. President also a shift in priorities from
- 11:50Speaker 1: federal law, enforcement and then the biggest, part a shift
- 11:55Speaker 1: in leadership from The White house all the way. Down,
- 11:58Speaker 1: now let's be, honest the sitdn't started a. Vacuum for,
- 12:02Speaker 1: years we were told police should be cut, back enforcement
- 12:06Speaker 1: should be, reduced and criminals should be given more leniency
- 12:09Speaker 1: and more, second, third, fourth, fifth and six chances what
- 12:13Speaker 1: happened under The democrats. Plan crime, surged cities became less,
- 12:19Speaker 1: safe communities paid the, price And americans lost their. Lives
- 12:24Speaker 1: Then President trump came in and flipped the. Script from day,
- 12:27Speaker 1: one The trump administration said we will always back The.
- 12:31Speaker 1: Blue that wasn't just a, slogan it literally became their.
- 12:35Speaker 1: Policy federal support for local police departments has. Increased prosecutors
- 12:40Speaker 1: were encouraged to pursue violent offenders, aggressively and repeat offenders
- 12:45Speaker 1: were targeted instead of being. Released and just as, important
- 12:49Speaker 1: police morales started going back up in this. Country when
- 12:53Speaker 1: officers know The White house had their, back they got
- 12:56Speaker 1: to do their jobs more efficiently and knew it. Now
- 13:01Speaker 1: targeting the worst offenders was also part of the. Plan
- 13:04Speaker 1: it was another major, shift going after the most dangerous criminals,
- 13:08Speaker 1: first violent repeat, offenders gang, members drug, traffickers illegal immigrants
- 13:15Speaker 1: with hardcore criminal. Records that is WHERE ice operations and
- 13:19Speaker 1: federal partnerships came into. Play instead of ignoring the, problem
- 13:24Speaker 1: the administration leaned in arresting thousands of high risk, individuals
- 13:29Speaker 1: removing threats from, communities sending a message that lawlessness will
- 13:33Speaker 1: not be. Tolerated, Now trump's message had always been simple
- 13:38Speaker 1: law and.
- 13:38Speaker 2: Order he ran on, it And.
- 13:40Speaker 1: President trump has been consistent saying we will not allow
- 13:44Speaker 1: our cities to be taken over by. Crime and he's
- 13:47Speaker 1: emphasized that safety is not, political it's fundamental to a great,
- 13:51Speaker 1: country saying Every american deserves to live in a safe,
- 13:56Speaker 1: community and that message is clearly resonating with Many americans
- 14:00Speaker 1: who are living in really high crime. Neighborhoods to law,
- 14:05Speaker 1: enforcement The president, said, HEY i got.
- 14:07Speaker 2: You do your. Job we support.
- 14:09Speaker 1: You and to the, criminals The president, said the rules
- 14:12Speaker 1: are being enforced, again so get ready because we're coming for.

- 16:14Speaker 1: where he highlighted high levels of crime in the city
- 16:17Speaker 1: of the. Year he returned to The Oval. Office here's
- 16:20Speaker 1: part of what The president had to.
- 16:21Speaker 4: Say but for years prior to our, Involvement memphis had
- 16:25Speaker 4: become known for something, else being the murder capital of THE.
- 16:29Speaker 4: Usa then not a good. Title it was averaging far

- 16:36Speaker 4: higher Than, Columbia Mexico, city Or baghdad in the YEAR
- 16:40Speaker 4: i shouldn't be saying, this, say because but here's a good.
- 16:43Speaker 4: News it's been, fixed all. RIGHT i hate to say

- 16:58Speaker 4: rapes in seven thousand and six Under burghleys and Armed Romni.
- 17:02Speaker 4: Roberts AND i, mean it was and getting. Worse this
- 17:06Speaker 4: catastrophe was a result of years of local, politicians, judges
- 17:11Speaker 4: and prosecutors decided with violent criminals over law abiding citizens.
- 17:17Speaker 2: Over law abiding.
- 17:18Speaker 1: Citizens it was an average far more than one murder per,
- 17:22Speaker 1: day that is what the people Of memphis were dealing,
- 17:25Speaker 1: with with a crime rate higher Than, Columbia Mexico, city
- 17:30Speaker 1: or Even. Baghdad that's something that the media never wanted
- 17:35Speaker 1: you to. Know he said crime levels were the products
- 17:38Speaker 1: of years of local, politicians, judges and prosecutors who sided
- 17:43Speaker 1: with the violent criminals over the law abiding. Citizens fox
- 17:48Speaker 1: Thirteen memphis report On march eighteenth that overall crime in
- 17:52Speaker 1: the city is down forty three percent compared to the
- 17:56Speaker 1: same period in twenty twenty, five Before trump instituted the Task. Force,
- 18:02Speaker 1: meanwhile The White house shared Figures monday underscoring the stark
- 18:06Speaker 1: drop in specific crime. Categories motor vehicle thefts down sixty seven,

- 18:35Speaker 1: heels of his immediate success in dealing with crime In,
- 18:40Speaker 1: washington D. C On september, fifteenth he signed a memo
- 18:44Speaker 1: establishing The Memphis Task. Force and what, Happened, well it's truly.
- 18:49Speaker 1: Incredible the numbers don't. Lie here's what The president had
- 18:53Speaker 1: to say from The Oval office when he started this
- 18:56Speaker 1: back In September, today.
- 18:58Speaker 6: At the request Of Governor Bill lee Of, tennessee who's
- 19:02Speaker 6: standing with. Us as you, Know i'm signing a presidential
- 19:06Speaker 6: memorandum to establish The Memphis Safe Task. Force and it's
- 19:11Speaker 6: very important because of the crime that's going on not
- 19:14Speaker 6: only In, memphis in many cities that we're going to
- 19:16Speaker 6: take care of all of them step by, step just
- 19:19Speaker 6: like we did IN.
- 19:19Speaker 3: Dc we have virtually no crime IN dc right, now
- 19:23Speaker 3: and we're going to keep it that. Way so our nation's,
- 19:25Speaker 3: capital we're going to keep it that, way or we're
- 19:27Speaker 3: going to federalize it if we had, to but we
- 19:28Speaker 3: don't have to anymore because it's in such great. Share
- 19:32Speaker 3: this task force will be a replica of our extraordinarily
- 19:35Speaker 3: successful efforts, here and you'll see it's a lot of
- 19:39Speaker 3: the same. Thing although the numbers here are really.
- 19:42Speaker 6: Something they're really.
- 19:43Speaker 4: Bad.
- 19:43Speaker 6: Now we did SEND fbi in about four months ago
- 19:46Speaker 6: to work and it brought some of the numbers down
- 19:49Speaker 6: and they did a great, job and we're sending in
- 19:51Speaker 6: the big.
- 19:52Speaker 5: Force.
- 19:52Speaker 1: Now you got to ask yourself this, question why would
- 19:56Speaker 1: The President United states Of america do something like this
- 19:58Speaker 1: in liberal. Cities it's because he truly believes that Every
- 20:02Speaker 1: american has the right to be. Safe he, said it's
- 20:06Speaker 1: very important because the crime that's going on not only In,
- 20:09Speaker 1: memphis in many, cities and we're going to take care
- 20:12Speaker 1: of all of them step by, step just like we
- 20:14Speaker 1: did IN. Dc trump said all of this as he
- 20:17Speaker 1: was standing by The governor Of, Tennessee Bill, Lee Senator Marsha,
- 20:21Speaker 1: blackburn And Bill.
- 20:22Speaker 2: Haggerty making it clear that we are moving.
- 20:24Speaker 1: Forward we have virtually no crime IN dc right, now
- 20:28Speaker 1: The president reminded the, country and we're going to keep
- 20:31Speaker 1: it that.
- 20:31Speaker 2: Way he, added it's our nation's.
- 20:34Speaker 1: Capital we're going to keep it that, way or we're
- 20:37Speaker 1: going to federalize it if we had, to but we
- 20:40Speaker 1: don't have to anymore because it's in such great shape.
- 20:45Speaker 2: Now if you're An american.
- 20:46Speaker 1: And it doesn't matter where you live right, now you
- 20:49Speaker 1: should be proud of The President United states Of america
- 20:51Speaker 1: pulling this off so quickly from a meeting in The
- 20:55Speaker 1: Oval office In september to massive reductions in crime Come.
- 21:01Speaker 2: March that is truly.
- 21:03Speaker 1: Historic usually this is something politicians say take years or
- 21:09Speaker 1: multiple election. Cycles The president's doing it in a matter of.
- 21:13Speaker 1: Months why because The president said to law, enforcement we
- 21:19Speaker 1: have your, back do your. Job and The president also
- 21:25Speaker 1: made it clear we're not. Leaving we're going to continue
- 21:28Speaker 1: to be involved In memphis and other, cities and there
- 21:31Speaker 1: are more cities that we're going to be targeting. Soon
- 21:34Speaker 1: So democrats can say all they want to that they
- 21:38Speaker 1: Hate President, trump but The american, people it's pretty clear
- 21:42Speaker 1: they're happy with what The president's doing right. Now for,
- 21:47Speaker 1: Weeks americans have been dealing with a travel. Nightmare we're
- 21:51Speaker 1: talking about, two, three four and even five hour wait
- 21:55Speaker 1: times at, airports four hour, lines and international hubs Like
- 22:00Speaker 1: houston and entire terminals completely backed up with people outside
- 22:05Speaker 1: waiting for, hours families missing, flights loved ones missing, funerals
- 22:10Speaker 1: and unable to reach family dealing with medical. Emergencies at
- 22:15Speaker 1: one point this weekend At Bush's, airport line stretched more
- 22:19Speaker 1: than four. Hours only a fraction of the checkpoints were even.
- 22:23Speaker 1: Open and the, question obviously is. Why Because democrats In
- 22:28Speaker 1: washington are holding The department Of home In security funding
- 22:32Speaker 1: hostage even though you paid your. Taxes that is leaving
- 22:37Speaker 1: THE tsa agents working without, pay calling out in massive,
- 22:42Speaker 1: numbers and just flat out quitting because they've got to
- 22:46Speaker 1: find another job where they can depend on the paycheck
- 22:49Speaker 1: actually showing.
- 22:50Speaker 2: Up in, fact we.
- 22:52Speaker 1: Now know that more than three, thousand four HUNDRED tsa
- 22:56Speaker 1: agents have called out, nationwide and well over four hundred
- 23:00Speaker 1: agents have already turned in their resignation saying they've moved.
- 23:04Speaker 2: On, now that's not a small.
- 23:06Speaker 1: Problem that's a system breakdown in real, time all done
- 23:10Speaker 1: by design by The democrats to continue to Hold america,
- 23:14Speaker 1: hostage which brings us To President Donald. Trump he just
- 23:19Speaker 1: Told republicans In congress to refuse ANY dhs deal with
- 23:25Speaker 1: The democrats without voter id and citizenship being. Attached that's playing.
- 23:33Speaker 1: Hardball The, president speaking In, memphis tennesseee it how to
- 23:37Speaker 1: Make america safe. Again event he had this to say
- 23:41Speaker 1: to The american people about what they're experiencing at the.
- 23:44Speaker 2: Airports so if.
- 23:46Speaker 4: Disruptions at major airports nationwide last, Weekend i'm again demanding
- 23:51Speaker 4: The democrats In congress immediately and their disgraceful shut down
- 23:55Speaker 4: of The department Of Homeland security and restore the full
- 23:58Speaker 4: funding for airport security and THE.
- 24:01Speaker 2: Tsa they are holding.
- 24:03Speaker 4: It up because they want to take care of the
- 24:06Speaker 4: legal immigrants coming into our. Country they want to take
- 24:10Speaker 4: care of criminals that are in sanctuary. Cities they want
- 24:14Speaker 4: to take care of transgender for, everybody literally the mutilization
- 24:19Speaker 4: of our, children men in women's. Sports but what they
- 24:23Speaker 4: don't want to do is give us anything to do
- 24:25Speaker 4: with citizenship for voting or VOTER. Id can you imagine
- 24:32Speaker 4: we're the only country that doesn't do voter. Ida every
- 24:34Speaker 4: country does VOTER.
- 24:35Speaker 2: Id you, know.
- 24:38Speaker 4: Brought to my attention today that we're the only country
- 24:42Speaker 4: that does mail in. Voting male in voting means mail and.
- 24:46Speaker 4: CHEATING i call it mail and, cheating and we got
- 24:49Speaker 4: to do something about it. All and it's part of homeland.
- 24:51Speaker 4: Security And i'm suggesting strongly to The Republican party don't
- 24:56Speaker 4: make any deal on. Anything the most important thing can
- 25:00Speaker 4: have is what's called The Save America. Act don't make
- 25:03Speaker 4: any deal in anything unless you include VOTER.
- 25:07Speaker 2: Id and you have to.
- 25:09Speaker 4: Be a citizen to. Vote you have to show citizenship to,
- 25:12Speaker 4: vote very easy to. Do it's very insulting when they
- 25:15Speaker 4: say people can't do it because they don't know how
- 25:17Speaker 4: to do. It anybody that can't do, IT i think it's.
- 25:20Speaker 2: A very insulting thing to.
- 25:21Speaker 4: Say The democrats are fully to blame with the.
- 25:25Speaker 1: Struggle as he said, There democrats are fully to blame
- 25:30Speaker 1: for what we're witnessing right now. Now President trump also
- 25:33Speaker 1: ORDERED ice agents deployed the major airports across the, country
- 25:38Speaker 1: and the message from his administration was crystal. Clear President
- 25:43Speaker 1: trump is using every tool available to Help american, travelers
- 25:48Speaker 1: while politicians are Arguing trump is putting people on the,
- 25:52Speaker 1: ground and what IS ice doing and why does it? Matter, well,
- 25:56Speaker 1: no let's be very clear about, that because the media
- 25:59Speaker 1: will not explain it honestly to you at. ALL ice
- 26:03Speaker 1: agents are not REPLACING. Tsa they are managing, crowds checking,
- 26:09Speaker 1: IDs controlling, lines and securing. Exits and that matters because
- 26:16Speaker 1: it frees up THE tsa agents who are still showing
- 26:20Speaker 1: up without pay to focus on, screening which is the real.
- 26:24Speaker 1: Bottleneck this is about, Efficiency this is about stabilizing a crisis.
- 26:30Speaker 1: Fast The president understands how important air travel is to our.
- 26:35Speaker 1: Economy The democrats are holding billions of dollars each and
- 26:40Speaker 1: every hour hostage when it comes to work that is
- 26:43Speaker 1: not being, done meetings that are not taking, place and
- 26:47Speaker 1: people that cannot, travel all because of The Democratic party
- 26:51Speaker 1: putting illegal immigrants, first and the fact that they want
- 26:55Speaker 1: to Hold americans. Hostage, now this is where it's getting,
- 26:59Speaker 1: interesting and this is what the headlines won't emphasize. Enough
- 27:04Speaker 1: after days of total, chaos airports Like, Houston, Minneapolis, chicago
- 27:09Speaker 1: and others are already seeing weight times drop significantly in some,
- 27:13Speaker 1: terminals from hours down to minutes in certain. Checkpoints that's
- 27:18Speaker 1: not an. Accident that's what happens when leadership shows. Up
- 27:23Speaker 1: but let's be, honest this is still a real. Crisis
- 27:26Speaker 1: this is a bandid and now it's going to get
- 27:29Speaker 1: even worse As democrats are doing everything they can to
- 27:33Speaker 1: try to make the problem go back to hours and
- 27:36Speaker 1: hours of wait. Times i'm not going to sugarcoat this
- 27:39Speaker 1: because you deserve the. Truth this is not fixed yet at.
- 27:43Speaker 1: All across the. Country some airports are still seeing multi hour.
- 27:48Speaker 1: Delays absentee rates are hitting forty plus percent in some.
- 27:53Speaker 1: Locations staffing is still stretched very.
- 27:56Speaker 2: Thin and here's the key.
- 27:58Speaker 1: Difference Before President trump got involved WITH, ice it was
- 28:02Speaker 1: chaos and no. Response, now at least there's a, plan
- 28:07Speaker 1: action and early. Results trump is calling out the real,
- 28:11Speaker 1: problem And President trump is not mincing words about who caused.
- 28:15Speaker 1: This he said it, directly, saying, Quote democrats are endangering
- 28:20Speaker 1: THE usa by holding back the money for THE. Tsa
- 28:25Speaker 1: that is the. Fight this isn't just about airport. Lines
- 28:29Speaker 1: this is ABOUT dhs. Funding it's now about The Save,
- 28:33Speaker 1: Act it's about border, security it's about election. Integrity And
- 28:38Speaker 1: trump is saying we are not going back to business as.
- 28:41Speaker 1: Usual we are not funding the system without fixing. It
- 28:46Speaker 1: this is true leadership under. Pressure and let me translate
- 28:49Speaker 1: it for the liberals this. Way when the system started,
- 28:53Speaker 1: breaking when The americans were stuck in, lines WHEN tsa
- 28:57Speaker 1: agents were, Overwhelmed trump didn't wait for. Permission he moved
- 29:02Speaker 1: resources immediately when they were already FUNDING ice, agents and
- 29:07Speaker 1: they put them where the crisis was. Happening that is
- 29:10Speaker 1: the decisive leadership that so Many americans voted. For so
- 29:15Speaker 1: here's the bottom line right, Now, yes this crisis is very.
- 29:19Speaker 1: Real yes it was caused by a funding fight In.
- 29:23Speaker 1: Washington but also The trump administration is actively. RESPONDING ice
- 29:29Speaker 1: deployment is already helping relieve the. Pressure and this is
- 29:32Speaker 1: the first real step towards stabilizing a system that clearly
- 29:36Speaker 1: was out of. Control and the message from The White
- 29:39Speaker 1: house couldn't be. Clear they say, this we will use
- 29:43Speaker 1: every tool we have to Protect americans and keep this country.
- 29:47Speaker 1: Moving and what are The democrats. Saying they're not, talking
- 29:52Speaker 1: they're not trying to work on a. Deal they wanted
- 29:55Speaker 1: this to, happen and more, importantly they wanted to hold
- 29:58Speaker 1: you hostage in a line for hours on.
- 30:01Speaker 2: In as The.
- 30:02Speaker 1: President said earlier today as he was getting On Air Force,
- 30:05Speaker 1: one he made it, clear THE tsa agents are heroes
- 30:09Speaker 1: and something has to be done.
- 30:11Speaker 2: Differently. Er no longer you.
- 30:13Speaker 3: Had a ten thousand dollar.
- 30:14Speaker 2: Bonus, sorry last year you gave a ten thousand dollar
- 30:17Speaker 2: bonus THE usa workers who kept showing up the work
- 30:19Speaker 2: during the.
- 30:20Speaker 3: Touchdowns will you do that?
- 30:21Speaker 2: Again, well it could.
- 30:21Speaker 4: Happen it's. Amazing there's such people that are, really really
- 30:26Speaker 4: loyal and great and it's not easy for. Them and
- 30:29Speaker 4: this is all caused by The. Democrats, said just so you,
- 30:33Speaker 4: know all this money was, approved everything was.
- 30:35Speaker 2: Approved this is. Done The democrats.
- 30:38Speaker 4: Went in and they want to have radical left lunatics

- 30:43Speaker 4: they want to have murderers come into our. Country they
- 30:46Speaker 4: want to have open borders And we're not letting it.
- 30:48Speaker 2: Happen that's what this is all.
- 30:50Speaker 4: About they don't want VOTER, id they don't want proof of,
- 30:53Speaker 4: citizenship they don't want mail in. Ballots they're so. Corrupt
- 30:59Speaker 4: what they. Want the only thing they want is mail in.

- 31:24Speaker 1: THE tsa agents that are showing up that have been
- 31:26Speaker 1: harmed by The, democrats they're heroes and it could happen.
