00:00And the Congo will be doing a beat settlement, probably coming in on Monday or Tuesday.

00:06We're going to be signing it up, and we've stopped a very vicious war.

00:11So that was an honor for me to be involved.

00:13I want to thank J.D. Vanson for a great job, and also our Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, has done a fantastic job.

00:24So Rwanda, a long-term war with the Congo, a very bloody war.

00:27They're all bloody, but this was a really bloody one.

00:30He's going to be making peace with Congo, and they can get on to making trade deals with the United States and other places,

00:38and have a much more normal form of life.

00:41We're very honored by that.

00:44As you know, we did a very great job with India and Pakistan.

00:48And we had India in.

00:50It looks like we're going to be making a trade deal with India.

00:53And we had Pakistan in.

00:54It looks like we're going to be making a trade deal with Pakistan.

00:57And it's a beautiful thing to watch.

01:00Serbia, Kosovo, likewise.

01:02They've been fighting for years.

01:03And as you know, we brought that one to a conclusion.

01:06And now we have a couple of big ones.

01:10We have Russia, Ukraine, which is making a little bit of progress.

01:14And we have Israel.

01:15And nobody really knows what that one is all about.

01:19We're going to find out pretty soon, I guess.

01:20The Iranian foreign, Mr. President, the Iranian foreign minister this afternoon said if the U.S. is serious about negotiations, that you would call up Israel and request that they stop their airstrikes.

01:32Will you make that request?

01:33Well, I think it's very hard to make that request right now.

01:36If somebody's winning, it's a little bit harder to do than if somebody's losing.

01:41But we're ready, willing, and able.

01:43And we've been speaking to Iran.

01:45And we'll see what happens.

01:46What was the thought process behind two-week time changes?

01:51Just a time to see whether or not people come to their senses.

01:55Mr. President, did the Europeans help at all in talking with Iranians?

02:00No, they didn't help.

02:01No.

02:01President, Iran doesn't want to speak to Europe.

02:04They want to speak to us.

02:05Europe is not going to be able to help in this.

02:0820 years ago, you were skeptical of a Republican administration that attacked a Middle East country on the idea of questionable intelligence of weapons of mass destruction.

02:17How is this moment different with Iran?

02:19Well, there were no weapons of mass destruction.

02:21I never thought there were.

02:23And that was somewhat pre-nuclear.

02:25You know, there was a nuclear age, but nothing like it is today.

02:30And it looked like I'm right about the material that they've gathered already.

02:35It's a tremendous amount of material.

02:37And I think within a matter of weeks or certainly within a matter of months, they were going to be able to have a nuclear weapon.

02:42We can't let that happen.

02:44I was very much opposed to Iraq.

02:47I said it loud and clear, but I was a civilian.

02:50But I guess I got a lot of publicity.

02:52But I was very much opposed to the Iraq war.

02:55And I actually did say, don't go in, don't go in, don't go in.

02:59But I said, if you're going to go in, keep the oil.

03:02But they didn't do that.

03:03What intelligence do you have that Iran is building a nuclear weapon?

03:06Your intelligence community has said they have no evidence that they are at this point.

03:09Well, then my intelligence community is wrong.

03:12Who in the intelligence community said that?

03:14Your director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard.

03:17She's wrong.

03:18Mr. President, are the Chinese in any way helping Iran at this moment?

03:22We're hearing reports of mysterious planes landing in Iran from China.

03:26They say that they're there to take people out.

03:30But I can't tell you about that.

03:32I get along very well with China.

03:34Get along very well with President Xi.

03:36I like him.

03:37He likes me.

03:38We have a very good relationship.

03:40We'll see what happens.

03:41Because I can't imagine them getting involved.

03:43Is there a decision that you need to make on Iran, whether to strike militarily?

03:47Is this the biggest decision you'll have to make as president?

03:51Well, I can't tell you that.

03:52I have to see what happens.

03:54I can't really say that.

03:56It depends what the decision is.

03:58But I wouldn't really be able to tell you that now.

04:01I'll tell you in about a year from now.

04:02Maybe five years or ten years from now.

04:05We'll never know about decisions.

04:06Would you report a ceasefire while the negotiations happen with Iran?

04:11I might, depending on the circumstances.

04:13Would you?

04:14Former Congressman Matt Gaetz.

04:15It's very hard to stop.

04:16I will say this.

04:18It's very hard to stop.

04:19When you look at it, Israel's doing well in terms of war.

04:24And I think you would say that Iran is doing less well.

04:28It's a little bit hard to get somebody to stop.

04:31Sir, Liam Prosper, what's your right?

04:32Former Congressman Matt Gaetz threw out an interesting idea suggesting that

04:36So, unfortunately, we do have to cut off the Q&A

04:40because it is about time for us to head off the air for the evening.

04:43I'm Austin Westfall.

04:44We thank you all for watching along with us on your Friday night.

04:48We do come back on the air tomorrow morning at 8 a.m. Eastern time.

04:51For now, what I'm going to do is send it to a commercial break.

04:53On the other side of that, you will see our overnight playlist.

04:56Have a good night.

04:56Have a good weekend.

04:57Have a good weekend.

05:06Have a good weekend.

05:36Have a good weekend.

06:06Have a good weekend.

06:36Have a good weekend.

07:06Rear Admiral Mark Montgomery.

07:08Mark, thanks so much for being with us here on Live Now from Fox.

07:12Thank you for having me.

07:13Pretty strong statements there from the president calling Tulsi Gabbard wrong in this situation.

07:18What did you make of those comments?

07:20Well, remember, he was responding to how someone characterized Tulsi Gabbard's comments, and they weren't put in a time perspective.

07:28So they were comments from, as you showed properly, from three months ago.

07:32Look, those comments were probably wrong.

07:36I think reasonably Israel has demonstrated to the United States now that the program was much farther along than that brief in March.

07:44In fairness to Gabbard, in fairness to Gabbard, those three months is a lot of time, and also her remarks sometimes reflect the consensus of the intelligence community.

07:55Sometimes they don't.

07:56Sometimes they're sculpted after the intelligence community is done with them, so we don't know.

08:01But certainly, he's saying something very clearly, something I agree with, that the Iranian program was reasonably close to being able to sprint to a bomb, and it was appropriate action to take to destroy the elements of this.

08:18And I think the Israelis have done a pretty good job setting this back months, if not years, at this point.

08:25And so as we're talking about some of what's happening there in the Middle East, particularly as it pertains to Iran's nuclear program, we know that there were meetings held today in Europe.

08:35There were meetings between some of those leaders talking about how to move forward.

08:40We heard, though, afterward from some of those European officials that not much headway had been made with those meetings with Iran.

08:46What are your thoughts on that?

08:48How is it going to come to a place where there can be a conversation that is fruitful?

08:55Well, in this case, again, I happen to agree with President Trump that the Iranians are not going to achieve what they need talking to the Europeans.

09:04That is not where we're at anymore.

09:06That might have been where we were at six months or a year ago, that if the Europeans had put in a harder push on the Iranians, maybe we could have gotten ourselves in a better position.

09:14That didn't happen.

09:15So now we're at this point where Israel is inflicting serious damage on the Iranian ballistic missile and nuclear weapons programs.

09:24And Iran is looking for a better deal.

09:27They're going to need to get that from President Trump, who will need to coordinate with Prime Minister Netanyahu in that decision-making process.

09:36So not surprised they didn't get much from Europe like the president.

09:40I'd say that was a conversation destined for, you know, if not for failure, then at least for boredom.

09:49And so as President Trump just also said, he mentioned two weeks when he was asked about a timeline of what he's going to do with Iran.

09:55When you heard that, what direction do you think that means that we should be looking out for in the next few weeks?

10:00So here I was disappointed.

10:03He made it sound here like he's given them two weeks.

10:06Look, I understand part of this time, you know, the United States is taking advantage of it to complete the mandatory evacuation of dependents,

10:13family members from Bahrain and other overseas facilities where we have some dependents in the Middle East.

10:19I assume we're also shuttling in increased missile defense capabilities to defend our troops in Iraq and in the Gulf states that are there from a potential Iranian counterstrike.

10:34But in the end, I believe the president needs to make the decision to bomb Fordow.

10:39I think this is the only way to significantly set back the Iranian nuclear program, that Israel does not have the capacity to do this in the way we do with a B-2 and a massive ordnance penetrator.

10:52I'm not arguing for a comprehensive air campaign like Israel is conducting.

10:57This is a very specific attack on a specific system that will allow the president to then turn to Prime Minister Netanyahu and say,

11:04you did what you needed to do for 10 days, I've done the one thing you couldn't do.

11:09It's time to get back to the table with the Iranians and get to some kind of agreement to move forward.

11:16And you're just now bringing up Fordow, the fuel enrichment plant, which is believed to be about half a mile underneath the mountain.

11:22So we've talked about with some of our weapons experts as well, what the capabilities are that Israel currently has.

11:28You said that Israel doesn't have the ability to strike there with those bunker buster bombs that could be sent there to the area.

11:36What else is there to do then at this point?

11:39Or why does Israel have the confidence, as Netanyahu said, that they can impact that facility?

11:46So I probably split that into two things.

11:47Destroy in the way that we think is necessary for the complete setback of the program and impact the facility, that very specific language that was used, they can impact the facility.

11:58Their 2,000 or 5,000 pound bombs can do a lot of damage to Fordow.

12:04They can knock out auxiliary systems, backup generator systems.

12:08They can hit the entrances.

12:09They can make it difficult to work there.

12:13They can set back individual small programs there.

12:16Much as they've done in Isfahan, Natanz, and elsewhere with very specific strikes on the uranium conversion, the development, the low-level 5% factories, and where the Iranians do a lot of the work before it gets to Fordow.

12:36I just think that the only thing that can absolutely, I think, kind of set, you know, destroy the facility is the massive ordnance penetrator.

12:46And it may not do it, but I think it's the one weapon that could, the Israelis could do a lot of damage to that facility.

12:52I'm not even talking about a risky human intervention as well that they could undertake in addition to Air Force assets.

12:59So, from my perspective, we really want to use this U.S. weapon if we can, and I think this is the right way to do it.

13:08And I think it actually gets this to an endgame, right?

13:11That kind of strike could be the final strike of this, at least of this stage, this phase of the campaign.

13:19What would the fallout be from that, from if this bunker buster was to be used?

13:24What would things look like inside of that facility?

13:27What would be left there?

13:28Would there be anything left?

13:30Well, that was a great turn of words with fallout.

13:32I thought you might go one way on that, you went the other.

13:34I'll answer both, and I'll say the fallout from destroying it would be that, you know, when you collapse this, you would destroy the centrifuges that are there.

13:43I think there's probably about 3,000 that spin up from 5% to weapons grade.

13:49Uranium.

13:50So, you know, that's a pretty big, that's a pretty big strike.

13:53There's some support, there's some unique support elements in there as well that are bunkered underground as well that would be very hard to replace.

14:01So, I think it would do years worth of damage to the program, to the Iranian program.

14:07Now, look, killing of the scientists, the destructions at Natanz and Esfahan, they've done significant damage, maybe even years worth, but this would be on top of that.

14:15But in terms of the other kind of fallout, I think that there's been enough studying of this.

14:20There have been other attacks in the past.

14:23We would certainly have sniffer RC-135 aircraft that sniff the air and look for release of contamination.

14:28But I don't think we believe that's going to be a significant issue here.

14:32And so, of course, when you're having these nuclear discussions, you have to talk about what happens afterwards as you pertain to that fallout.

14:39Let's also talk about the fallout that comes between nations as well.

14:43So, international relations as we're moving forward, is it going to be important for the U.S. and Israel to continue to work closely?

14:51What could happen long term with this relationship if President Trump usurps Netanyahu and gets involved if that's not what he's asking for?

15:00Yeah.

15:01So, there's two ways I'd look at this.

15:02One, there's the broad relationships of, like, the Gulf Cooperation Council and the Europeans with the Israelis.

15:08And while there was an initial, like, you know, throat clearing by all of them when Israel started this, it has not been followed up by a lot of complaining from those capitals.

15:18I think they all understood how far along Iran was or began to understand how far along they were and understood that this was an existential issue for Israel.

15:27So, probably what's foremost in their thoughts are how fast can we get this over with?

15:32You know, Israel, do what you need to do and let's get this over with.

15:35So, in terms of the U.S. and Israel, look, in the end, these are U.S. supplied or U.S. sold F-35s and F-15s, U.S. supplied and sold munitions.

15:48Israel needs the United States.

15:50Israel is a small nation of 9 million people.

15:53They cannot go this alone.

15:54I know on occasion they say things like that, but the reality is they need munitions from the United States.

16:00They need air defense support from the United States.

16:02There's currently a THAAD battery in Israel providing medium-range ballistic missile defense.

16:07There are several Aegis-class destroyers off the coast of Israel providing ballistic missile defense.

16:13They need access to our munitions.

16:15They need access to our aircraft production lines.

16:19They need access to our air defense systems.

16:23So, Israel cannot go without us.

16:24So, I would come back at, in the end, Netanyahu will have to bend to Trump's will.

16:30But right now, he's convinced President Trump of the value of the campaign he's conducting.

16:35I think he's gotten very close to convincing President Trump to launch his own strikes on B2 strikes on Fordow.

16:41That has not happened, and I think the president's backing off slightly.

16:45But that's where Netanyahu's been over the last 10 days.

16:47It'll be interesting to continue to watch as these developments come in.

16:51Again, we've just been speaking with retired Rear Admiral Mark Montgomery with the FDD.

16:55Any final thoughts, anything else we should be really paying attention to in the next few days?

17:01Well, I would definitely watch U.S. movement of forces, not just the offensive forces, but the defensive forces.

17:08I would, you know, listen to President Trump.

17:11He is the decider now.

17:12The, you know, and so he will make this decision on the, on the use of the B2 using the massive ordinance penetrators.

17:22And I would not listen too much to Iranian talks in Europe.

17:26All right.

17:26So, we'll continue to keep our eyes there on the White House as well as they're in Israel and in the Middle East, looking at that live look in Jerusalem.

17:34We appreciate you for joining us here on Live Now from Fox, as always.

17:38Thank you for having me, Cristina.

17:40Thank you for having me, Cristina.

18:08Thank you for having me.

18:38Thank you for having me.

19:08Thank you for having me.

19:38And welcome back everyone to Live Now from Fox. We do want to take you out

19:48to Detroit, Michigan. Secretary Noem hosting an immigration roundtable. Let's listen in.

19:55Sadly, we need closer ties and more seriousness from our Canadian neighbors

19:59with regard to border security. Many of you may have seen a 60 Minutes episode interview a number

20:07of months ago where a cartel member was interviewed about human trafficking and drug trafficking

20:12and across our northern border. And he stated explicitly that he himself brings over 30 kilos

20:18of fentanyl per month by himself. Now, our largest land border in the entire world is our northern

20:26border. And if this man can bring in 30 kilos by himself, exactly what that means is a lethal dose

20:32of fentanyl is five to seven grains of salt. That's 0.42 milligrams. Him bringing in 30 kilos

20:38is enough to kill up to 90,000 Americans. That's one person in one month. That's serious. That's a

20:46crisis. And the people up here that you see here today are a part of solving the crisis. And in

20:51one case, Ms. Morin's case, the consequences if we fail. We have a vital opportunity to secure our

20:59border. And no one is doing a better job than President Donald J. Trump. Yes.

21:10President Trump set out to secure our border. And just by including every means available tariffs

21:16to negotiate resulted in getting Mexico to search 10,000 troops up to our southern border

21:23at their own expense. And now border apprehensions on the southern border have plummeted. So President

21:30Trump kept his promise. He secured our southern border and got Mexico to pay for it. Now, next,

21:36we need to secure our northern border. And we need a less than laissez-faire approach from our Canadian

21:41neighbors. We need them to take our border security as seriously as they want us to take their sovereignty.

21:46We need to use every tool at our disposal. And President Trump is using that. It is absolutely

21:52appropriate to use tariffs as a negotiation because the USMCA, the US-Mexico-Canadian agreement,

22:00needs to be more than just economic. But it needs to be the security of our nation. The first line of

22:06defense for our nation is not our border. It's the last. And we need our very good friends and partners

22:11in Canada to take this as seriously as we do. Someone who takes this extremely seriously is our

22:16secretary. This, this, I'm not going to say it would be reductive to say that you are the most

22:22successful woman in politics. A business leader.

22:29A business leader, a rancher, a former representative in Congress, and a governor. This woman leads

22:37through crises like no one else. Certainly we could have used somebody who champions the Second

22:41Amendment, someone who champions women's sports and girls' sports, but someone who won the Governor's

22:47Cup twice because of the economic impact that she made in South Dakota. This is a leader, and now she

22:53is the secretary leading our homeland security, and we are so pleased to have her here today.

23:00So, Madam Secretary, among your many accomplishments, I know that you are a mother, and if you can believe it,

23:05a grandmother, and I understand that this is probably, this is probably what animates your

23:12service to this nation. Ma'am, thank you so much for being here, for replying to our pleas to come

23:17to take our northern border seriously, and it's our honor to partner with you to help make sure that

23:22we secure our border and make America great again. Thank you.

23:24My goodness. Well, thank you. Thank you.

23:29Well, it's my honor and pleasure to be here, and thank you. I'm going to take you everywhere with me now

23:33to introduce me at everything I go to, but I've had a fantastic day up here in Michigan and spending

23:40time with a lot of the different components under the Department of Homeland Security that work to

23:44secure our northern border, but also to address a lot of the biggest challenges that we are dealing

23:48with right now, and we're dealing with it as a failure of the Biden administration and how

23:53tragically they destroyed the security of the families that live in this country, and we aren't just

23:59seeing it at the southern border. We're seeing it in every single state, and I said it a thousand

24:03times if I said it once, that every state became a border state because of what they allowed

24:09to come into this country, and we have to, and families like this dear family have had to deal

24:14with the consequences of what they did, and thank God for President Trump. Thank God for President

24:19Trump. They came in as a strong leader, so. And I would also say, you know, thank you to consistent

24:29voices and champions and people who put policy into place and never stopped the fight in Congress

24:35like Congressman James. I mean, every day continuing to message why we needed a change in the White

24:41House and why we needed someone to lead this country like him was extremely powerful, extremely

24:47powerful for him to continue to lead and to be bold on behalf of the people. I want to thank

24:53Building America's Future for hosting this event, for talking about the importance of having this

25:00conversation. You know, you all know that President Trump, when he campaigned for office

25:06for his second term, he talked about the fact that immigration and the border crisis was his number

25:12one priority. And that he knew that that if we weren't a country of rule of law, if we did not

25:19enforce our borders, then we were no nation at all. And he talked about it all the time. And people

25:23overwhelmingly supported him because he recognized that no one in this country should be treated better

25:29than anyone else. That citizens should be treated less than people who were here illegally

25:34committing criminal acts against them and their families. And that we were going to once again be a

25:39country that was back on its foundation, the foundation that our creators gave us as the

25:43greatest experiment in humankind was this nation of a constitution built on freedom and liberty,

25:50but it also was built on law, and that it would be upheld and applied equally in the scales of justice

25:55would be applied equally. So that is exactly what he did. And in fact, you know, my background was not

26:00to be in politics at all. My dream was to farm and ranch with my dad, who was a cowboy. So he was tough.

26:08And I loved him. And he was my best friend. And I thought I'd spend the rest of my life running

26:13our businesses and our ranch and farm with him until he died in an accident when I was in college.

26:19And that's when I ended up getting involved in government and politics. Because we had the

26:24federal government telling us we owed them taxes, because my dad died. So I just started showing up

26:29at meetings. And my life changed. And I will tell you, this is what I want all of you who are here today

26:35to recognize. Is it showing up matters? Showing up matters. There may be

26:40there may be something that you learn here today that you're able to go out and tell

26:48five other people or 10 other people that completely changes their perspective on this nation,

26:53or on our president or what he's doing or why he's doing what he's doing. And so I would ask that as we

26:59have this conversation, that you be thinking about not only what you can learn here today,

27:04but also what you can leave here today, going out and talking to people that are across this country

27:10that really need to understand why we're working so hard in this country to make sure that we have

27:15safety and security and a strong economy, and why we need the homeland to be the place where the

27:22American dream can still continue, it can still happen. So I'm excited about the folks that will be

27:26sharing with us today. A couple of things when the president asked me, you know, after he won the

27:31election, Christy, what, what would you like to do? I know that people have suggested you to be the

27:36Secretary of Agriculture or the Secretary of Interior, you know, what position would you most be

27:41interested in? And I said, sir, I would like to be your Secretary of Homeland Security. And he said,

27:46really? Why? You know, he said they that's a really hard job. And it's a mess because this

27:54Mayorkas guy screwed it all up. And, you know, we've got I said, sir, because it's your number

27:59one priority. And I want to work on your number one priority, because I think you're going to have

28:03to have somebody who's actually tough enough to do it, but also can go out there and talk to the

28:08American people about why it's important. And someone who's a wife and a mother and a grandmother

28:13that recognizes that their families out there that are suffering, that need this fixed, but also that

28:20as we go through making sure that we're cleaning up a lot of the criminals and the bad actors in

28:25our country and getting the drugs and the human trafficking gone, that can communicate that in a

28:30way that shows that we're preparing a better country for our kids and for our grandkids. And he

28:35entrusted me with it. And I get up every day, hoping I'm doing it fast enough for him been fast enough

28:42for families like the Morin family that just has so suffered. And here, as people have talked,

28:48and I've asked, visited with people across the country, they've talked about the fact that they

28:54see so many resources going to the southern border, they get concerned that we're forgetting about the

28:58northern border. And I will assure you that that is not happening under this administration,

29:03that while we have ensured that that the different responsibilities that I have under homeland

29:08security are deployed and that the border is secure. In fact, we have broken the record for the lowest

29:15illegal alien encounters at the southern border for two months in a row in the history of the nation.

29:26We've deployed more resources there. We've got Border Patrol there, ICE there. We've also got lots of

29:32federal partners, ATF, DEA, the FBI, they're all helping us with that. The military and National Guard

29:38folks as well. The Coast Guard, we repositioned the fleet. Most people don't know that the Department of

29:43Homeland Security has a responsibility for the Coast Guard. And so we have repositioned the fleet as

29:49well. But we did all of that without pulling any resources from the northern border. In fact,

29:54we've strengthened our security here as well, recognizing that we're only as safe as our most

30:00vulnerable section of our border. And our border isn't just on land, that it also is in our maritime

30:05borders. And that we need to be ensuring that as we seal and secure areas where criminals may want to

30:10cross, they will find new areas to where they will traffic and where they will bring in the drugs

30:16that are killing our children. In fact, under the last three years of the Biden administration,

30:20we saw over 1000% increase in illegal encounters at the northern border under those last three years

30:28of the Biden administration, just because of the open borders policy that they embraced. In fact,

30:33we saw so many Chinese nationals crossing up here. We've seen so many people from other countries that

30:39weren't necessarily the typical Central Americans that you hear about talked about on the news so

30:44often. And we saw now since we have secured the southern border, the TDA, the MS-13, the cartels

30:51bringing their drugs and coming across this northern border as well. And so it's very important for folks

30:57to realize that as we're encountering them, that we're not we're not we're not letting down our guard

31:04here at the northern border as well. And that we're strengthening not just what we do at our ports of

31:09entry to scan shipping containers, trucks, cars, passengers, people and pedestrians that may cross,

31:15but also what we're doing out on the waters and on your Great Lakes and what we're doing to make

31:19sure that we're stopping and doing interdictions going forward. The one thing I will tell you is

31:24that the former Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, was a train wreck. He was a train wreck and he

31:29was hard to work with for. I worked with him previously and in trying to build relationships

31:35with Canada so that we knew who was crossing our border, asking them to take back their citizens

31:41that were illegal here in this country. He was very hard to work with. He talked about to President

31:47Trump about setting up a fentanyl czar so we could deal with the drug issue, but wasn't willing to share

31:54criminal background information on individuals with us, wasn't willing to allow us access to some

31:59of their data systems that would tell us really who was trafficking a lot of the drugs, the cocaine,

32:05the fentanyl that was killing our children. And we are really hopeful that this new leader,

32:12Prime Minister Carney, will be a different individual, a different individual who will work

32:16closely with the Trump administration to give us the security and the information and the

32:20partnerships that we need. We need that every country has a responsibility to take back their

32:26citizens. Every country has a responsibility to take back the people that are their citizens that

32:31are in our country illegally. But they also should want to work with us on vetting who is coming into

32:37our countries and who is crossing our borders. When we do trade and when we do do data information

32:45sharing, we become closer in relationships and that's what we're hoping we get to see. You saw President

32:51Trump be pretty strong on Canada lately. I was thankful that he did that. I was thankful he

32:56did that because it really brought them to the table and making sure that they weren't just out

33:00there talking about this great relationship and not really participating with us. Now we have

33:06the opportunity for a better partnership going forward. The one thing I do want to talk about

33:11today that I hope we get the chance to, and then I'm going to pass it on to the congressman so our

33:16other panelists can talk, is this big, beautiful bill the president keeps talking about.

33:21It is incredibly important. I will tell you that we have a 500 percent increase in violence against

33:28our law enforcement officers in this country right now. We knew that it was going to be tough to get

33:32cartels and terrorists out of our country, and President Trump has already removed thousands of

33:37them. But as we do this operation, they're not going to go without a fight. And I will tell you,

33:43I've got many on my staff that get death threats every single day. I will tell you the ICE officers that are

33:48out there. The CBP officers, as they work with sheriffs, other folks in other states, highway

33:55patrol officers, they're receiving more death threats and aggression. You've seen on the news some of the

34:01riots and violence. A lot of this is professionalized, funded by socialists, by communists, by dangerous

34:10criminals to create this kind of disturbance in our cities to try to scare us off from really bringing

34:15public safety. And we will not. We will stand strong. But I will tell you,

34:20this big, beautiful bill that's coming, that President Trump keeps calling a big, beautiful bill

34:31and wants us all to call it a big, beautiful bill, it is extremely important to fund the operation that

34:37we need to get these criminals out of our country. We need to be able to have the resources for our law

34:43enforcement to have backup, to build the infrastructure at the wall that we need, to be

34:48able to go out there and have the officers that we need to do the work that needs to be done to

34:52restore law and order. So as you're talking to your senators, please implore to them about the fact

34:58that these resources are incredibly important to fix the damage that was done by the Biden

35:02administration to make our communities safe again. I'm so looking forward to the discussion and the

35:07conversation. And I may jump in and ask a few questions once in a while, too. And I just want to

35:12thank you for bringing the beautiful young lady in the front row. I'm so excited to see you here.

35:17What is your name? Annabeth? Nice to see you. Thank you for coming. Annabeth is here. And are you

35:23the youngest one here? How old are you? You're 10? That's fantastic. I think I want to be your best

35:29friend. So I want to meet you afterwards. Okay? Okay, good. All right. With that, I'll turn it back

35:38over to you, Congressman, and we can continue. Well, we all know that Annabeth is among the most

35:42patriotic in Livingston County, and that has been proven. Another person who's patriotic in Livingston

35:47County is Sheriff Mike Murphy. Sheriff Mike Murphy is a true leader.

35:58We'll take a two-minute break. Don't worry, you won't miss anything. We'll take you right back out

36:03to this roundtable. We'll be back in two minutes.

36:06We'll be back in two minutes.

36:36We'll be back in two minutes.
