Transcript

00:00Good news conference with the Secretary of Defense and the Chairman, mostly with Chairman Cain.

00:06And he talks about the development of the weapon that was used to go after, particularly the underground site at Fordow, but also in the Tons.

00:14And people had studied the target for 15 years, developed the weapons precisely to do what they wanted to do.

00:22And it seemed, from all indications, that everything worked as advertised.

00:26So I think the three sites that we hit are pretty well destroyed as much as you can in one pass.

00:35Now, people might remember, prior to the United States bombing these nuclear sites in Iran, there had been an exchange of activity between Israel and Iran.

00:44Iran would strike Israel, Israel would strike Iran.

00:48Why was the United States uniquely positioned to launch this strike?

00:54What could we do that Israel couldn't?

00:57Well, and as I said, particularly the site at Fordow, so Iran has been working on nuclear weapons for over two decades.

01:06They supposedly stopped their program in 2003.

01:10Well, at that point, they already had done an awful lot towards having a nuclear weapon.

01:15And so the only thing that they still required or lacked was enriched uranium for a bomb, and that's what they were working on.

01:21And so they, years ago, felt that their facilities for enriching uranium, which were mostly above ground, were too vulnerable.

01:32Too vulnerable to the kind of attacks that Israel could conduct and did conduct early in June.

01:37And so they built these underground facilities, one at Natanz, and then, in particular, one at Fordow, which was way underground, built under a mountain.

01:48And Israel just didn't have any weapons that could reach that underground facility.

01:54And we did.

01:55We had the massive ordnance penetrator, the GBU-57, which is a precision weapon, 30,000 pounds.

02:02It's about as big as an SUV in length and almost half as wide as one.

02:08And so we put six of these down two holes that completely took out the areas, the cascades, where they're enriching uranium underground, I believe.

02:20How close were they to actually being able to detonate something?

02:25That's a really good question, Tom.

02:29You have to remember that nuclear weapons were invented by the United States back in World War II.

02:34And we started that program in 1942.

02:37And three years later, we dropped two bombs.

02:40And the only thing that kept us from dropping more bombs more rapidly was the fizzle material that we were producing, the enriched uranium or plutonium.

02:50So you can go back to 2011.

02:54The U.N.'s nuclear watchdog, the IAEA, was already saying they have everything they need to make a bomb.

03:00They just need more fizzle material.

03:02And so they were producing that.

03:03And as you mentioned the history of this, it's important to remember, next month, only a couple of weeks from now, we're coming up on the 80th anniversary of Hiroshima, August 6th.

03:13In all of those years, nuclear deterrence, year to year, has become a bigger issue because of this technology that other countries want.

03:22Was Iran the one country that was most likely to use this technology if they actually ever did develop the ability to develop one of these weapons to its full capability?

03:33I think you can make a case for that.

03:35They've talked about wiping out Israel.

03:37Israel's a small country.

03:38Some people would say it's a one-bomb or two-bomb country.

03:41If you take out Haifa or Tel Aviv, the modern state of Israel wouldn't exist any longer.

03:46And so I think you could make the case that Israel felt it was an existential threat.

03:53And lots of evidence suggests that when countries get nuclear weapons, they feel emboldened.

03:57And, Colonel, we only have about 15 seconds.

03:59But by executing this mission successfully on Iran, does it send a message to other actors within the world some of this is coming your way if you go too far with this stuff?

04:08I think it definitely does reverse some of the expectation or belief that the U.S. lacks the will to follow through on some of its deterrent threats.

04:17All right.

04:18Retired Colonel Mark Buckman is a professor of security studies at the National War College here in Washington, D.C.

04:25We thank you so much for your insight and analysis to this.

04:28We'll continue to talk about this as we move forward.

04:30I want to thank you as well for joining us here on Sunday morning.

04:33Reminder, coming up at 9 a.m., it's Fox News Sunday with Shannon Bream.

04:36We're going to move over to Fox Local on our streaming app.

04:39We will see you there and see you back here next week on The Hill.

04:46And thank you there to our partners at Fox 5 in D.C., their On The Hill program, where they tackle some of the biggest stories of the week.

08:14I'm right back.

08:16I'm right back.

08:28It's just one thing.

08:29We're right back.

08:31It's good.

08:32You're right.

08:35You know what's going on?

08:38Are we right back.

08:39This is just something we're missing.

08:40We're going to control.

08:42We're right back.

08:44Invest this money, about a, you know, billion dollars into this project.

08:48You've looked at this.

08:50Will D.C. get a return on this money?

08:52Well, what I will say, Tom, first, thanks for having me.

08:55What I'd say is that D.C. has a history of doing this right.

08:59And doing this, I mean, investing in professional sports venues as a way to build communities.

09:04So we've done it downtown with the Capital One Arena.

09:07If you go back 25 years, that transformed downtown.

09:09If you look at my neighborhood where I work, Nationals Ballpark, Audi Field, those two have been major investments to turn and transform that neighborhood.

09:17We also did it in Ward 8 with the Entertainment Sports Arena.

09:20I think we had the opportunity to do the same at RFK.

09:23One of the myths about this has been that D.C. is going to build a stadium, you know, give a billion dollars to help build the stadium.

09:30That's not really where the money is going, right?

09:32Like, this billion dollars is not for the stadium.

09:35The commanders are building the stadium.

09:37What is this billion dollars going to primarily for infrastructure?

09:41Yeah, I mean, that's been the history.

09:43The city's invested in the infrastructure to allow these neighborhoods to develop.

09:47In our neighborhood, it was the expansion of the metro system by putting another station stop right there at Half Street to make it easy to walk in,

09:54to build infrastructure on the riverfront, to connect that area.

09:58Improvements on bridges, the Frederick Douglass Bridge, which we all see and love, was an important part of that.

10:02So at RFK, the same investment is going to be made in terms of streetscapes, access to those stations, and I know parking is a big part of the investment as well.

10:10And I think if people don't think this is important, look at what happened when, oh my God, they announced a couple of years ago that maybe the Capitals and the Wizards might move to Virginia.

10:21And, you know, a flurry of activity went to save the arena because of the economic impact it would have on Gallery Place in Chinatown as well, too.

10:31Are stadiums and these enclosed stadiums in particular magnets for economic development and housing?

10:39We know people want to go to them, but do they stay there, live there, work there, spend their dollars?

10:45What I'll say is nothing that happens in a city happens by accident, right?

10:49So I think that not every stadium is the same, so certainly that same investment in another city might not produce the same outcomes.

10:55But what we've seen in the city, we've been really smart about making sure we pair that investment in the infrastructure to support a stadium

11:00with investments in housing, commercial attraction, and really public realm investments to kind of create places, doing placemaking.

11:09We've gotten that right more times than not in the city.

11:11And the fact that this is going to have housing as a component of it, that's a little bit different than we see in some other cities

11:18when they go and they build a sports stadium.

11:20Look at Philadelphia.

11:21Nothing against the Eagles, you know who we root for, but you go to the stadiums in Philadelphia, it's a parking lot and it's a building.

11:29Exactly. Same thing with the New York Giants and the Jets as well, too.

11:33It's a parking lot and a building. That's not what the commander's talking about here, are they?

11:38No, I don't think so. I mean, again, if you look, the plans that were laid out for the Southeast

11:42before the stadium had office development, residential development, and you had the stadium that was going to be tucked within it,

11:49almost like a European model of development. That's really what I think we've gotten right more times than not.

11:54I hope to see the same thing in RFK.

11:56When the letter came in this past week from Congress, the chairman of the House Oversight Committee,

12:03he said that the intent of the transfer of the control of the site to Washington, D.C. was for this stadium.

12:11If the council were not to vote on this by this August research and this project gets delayed,

12:18could that stifle other development at that site?

12:22Charles Allen, who's a council member who's been a staunch critic of this deal, says,

12:26well, we can do all of this anyway. We don't need a stadium. Is that necessarily true?

12:31Well, you know what? I'm not going to step into spaces I'm not supposed to step in.

12:35I am sure that there's a...

12:37But you're an... I'll help you with this.

12:39Okay.

12:39You're an economic development guy.

12:40Okay.

12:41This stadium's supposed to be a magnet for all this other stuff.

12:44Does all this other stuff happen if it doesn't have a stadium?

12:47Good question.

12:48No, I think that what you have in the city is you do have the potential for all of this development to happen.

12:54What we saw at Nats Park is that the stadium was a catalyst,

12:57that it accentuated and accelerated that to happen.

13:00So I think that you're going to play a little bit of both.

13:02We can have that development.

13:04The stadium itself is going to really catalyze it in a way that's special,

13:07and we've seen that before in the city.

13:08Mechamon, I mean, joining us live this morning, we thank you so much for your insight and analysis and all this.

13:12All right, Tom.

13:12I don't think we're done yet.

13:13Thanks, Tom.

13:14As we continue this Sunday morning, we're going to look at an impact that has been kind of some debate.

13:22What did the United States do?

13:23What did it accomplish in bombing nuclear facilities in Iran?

13:27And what is the larger threat of nuclear deterrence around the world?

13:30We'll be right back after this.

13:31It's Fox 5's on the Hill coming at you live.

13:36And thank you once again there.

13:37Fox 5's on the Hill programming, tackling some of the biggest political headlines and many other stories from this week.

13:55You

14:25Let's go.

14:55Township, play now.

15:25Township, play now.

15:56We're taking a live look on this Sunday over at the Nashville International Airport.

16:02That's where earlier this week, Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, she was in town to discuss some changes being made to TSA security lines.

16:10Let's watch.

16:11I want to thank Steve and his team and everybody for what they do to secure our country and the work that they do with the Transportation Security Administration

16:24to make sure that everyone who travels on our airlines and in our airways fly with peace and with knowing that they can do so securely.

16:34We are focused on making sure that we are putting in and implementing new measures that will streamline hospitality for families that travel,

16:43for military members that travel, and some new policies that we're implementing as well.

16:46Last month here at this airport, the National International Airport, in honor of America's 250th birthday, implemented a new lane through our security checkpoints that's called the Honor Lane.

16:59And what that Honor Lane does is that it implements a new policy that we're going to be putting across the country at all TSA security check lanes that honors our military men and women.

17:09We recently announced that this program called Serve with Honor and Travel with Ease will be utilized at airports, starting with those that are closest to our military installations,

17:21where it will allow uniformed officers, uniformed military members to have their own lane that they can go through for expedited processing and ease of travel.

17:30Right now, we have dedicated lanes and front-of-line privileges at 11 different airports, including here at Nashville.

17:37Second, as a tribute to those who have lost loved ones in the line of duty, we are also honoring Gold Star families,

17:44and we're doing that by giving them pre-check enrollment free of charge.

17:48We want everybody to know that we are extremely grateful for their service to our country and recognize the sacrifice that their families have made.

17:55One of the things I consistently feel is our responsibility to keep reminding people,

18:00and especially as we're recruiting new military members and people to serve in positions,

18:04is that we will convince them to come forward and to continue to serve as long as we show them

18:11that we are willing to respect the service of our veterans, respect those families who have lost loved ones.

18:17And one of the ways that TSA can do that is by honoring these Gold Star families

18:21and by giving them their pre-check enrollment free of charge.

18:25The third thing that we are implementing that impacts our military personnel is that we're going to offer each of them

18:31a $25 pre-check enrollment discount for military spouses.

18:36So if military spouses want to go through the pre-check process,

18:39they will get a discount on the cost of that when they sign up.

18:43And to make it even easier, one of the things that we are pre-deploying is mobile units.

18:48For some of the individuals who go out there and help enroll people into TSA pre-enrollment,

18:53we're going to send them out to bases and military installations across the country

18:58so that they don't have to travel to an airport, they don't have to travel far from home

19:02in order to sign up and to get the benefits that come with a pre-check process.

19:08These tokens of gratitude are just a small amount of what we can do in this country

19:14to honor those who serve in our military, but also them and their families and recognize their sacrifice.

19:19Those benefits are already in effect today, so I'd encourage all of our military members,

19:24all of those Gold Star families, to take advantage of them as soon as possible.

19:29For more information that individuals may want to have on our program called

19:33Serve with Honor, Travel with Ease, just go to tsa.gov and you'll get all the information that you need.

19:39The Trump administration is working very hard to make sure that we're not only maintaining

19:44and implementing and enhancing all of our security protocols, but that we're also making travel more enjoyable,

19:51that our time in our airports and security checkpoints can be filled with hospitality

19:55and serving people and to get them through in a timely manner and much more efficient as well.

20:01Just last week, we made a big announcement that I think a lot of folks were really excited about

20:06was that we put on pause the taking off of your shoes at our security checkpoints.

20:15Ending the shoes-off policy will decrease our passenger wait times through our security checkpoints,

20:20and it'll make sure that it is a more pleasant and efficient process for everybody.

20:25Finally, as someone who is a mother and a grandmother,

20:29I recognize that traveling with little kiddos at times can be difficult or at least cumbersome

20:35and time-consuming.

20:38So one of the policies that we are changing and implementing as well

20:41is that we want to announce that for all families, we'll be implementing a program that is called Families on the Fly.

20:48This means that when families come into our airports and enter our TSA security checkpoints,

20:53they will have dedicated lanes specific for families.

20:56There will be expanded areas that will give them the benefit of recognizing that they have children with them

21:03and will help make sure that we have the ability to take care of them and their families

21:07as they go through this expedited process with their kiddos.

21:10And we also recognize that these family lanes are ones that will be specifically implemented first

21:17around large areas where people travel with their kids quite often.

21:21We started, I believe, with a pilot project at the Orlando Airport because of Disney World being so close.

21:27We're excited to continue to offer these benefits through TSA to help individuals make sure that they are having the security

21:35when they travel through our airlines and through our airways,

21:39but that also we're making it much more of a pleasant experience for them as well.

21:43This will include, we're also going to make sure that we're giving families a $15 discount when they enroll in TSA pre-check as well.

21:53We're going to be reducing also some of the invasive pat-downs that individuals have seen with children,

22:00and so we'll be focusing on making sure that that activity is as limited as it possibly can be,

22:08recognizing that when people are traveling with their children many times, that has been invasive in their privacy.

22:15TSA has been working with many national family organizations

22:18and with other families and groups to help organize these implementation of policy changes,

22:24and we're going to continue to do that to make sure we're looking at our screening processes,

22:28keeping our standards high, but making and accommodating.

22:31We're one of the busiest summers and falls in the country's history.

22:36We're also recognizing that we've got even more travelers that are hitting the airways in the future.

22:41With not just the World Cup coming next year,

22:45which will bring us 22 million international visitors that will come into this country,

22:50we also have the Olympics coming up.

22:52We'll be celebrating America's 250th birthday as well next year,

22:57so streamlining these processes is incredibly important for us

23:00to make sure that we can accommodate the increased traffic that we've seen

23:04and continue to do even better into the future.

23:07One of the things that I would note for all of you is that we have seen

23:10our seven busiest travel days in history just since the beginning of this calendar year.

23:17So more and more people are traveling by air,

23:20and we're determined to make sure that we're keeping our technology investments,

23:24our training for our TSOs and our TSA employees to the highest level

23:29so that people can streamline their processes going forward.

23:33We're making sure that every policy that we have is a common-sense policy

23:37that serves people and keeps us safe.

23:40With that, I just want to say thank you for being here,

23:42and also God bless all of our military members and the folks who live in this country,

23:47and may they all be safe as they go out and they do their work

23:50and continue to defend our country.

23:51With that, I'll open it up to any questions that you may have.

23:54Yes, sir.

23:56Yes.

24:01So I haven't read the Dignity Act yet,

24:18although I have talked to the Congresswoman about it.

24:20I know that she's looking forward to having some debate on this in Congress with the House and the Senate.

24:25You know, what I do and what ICE does every single day is go out and enforce the law.

24:30What we do and what President Trump has directed us to do

24:33is to make sure that we're upholding federal law

24:35and that we are making sure that it applies equally to everybody.

24:38No longer will the law apply to some people and not to others.

24:42Illegal criminals in this country are not going to get priority over American citizens.

24:47So I'm incredibly proud of our ICE officers that they're out there every day

24:50making sure that we're getting murderers, rapists, pedophiles off of our streets

24:55and getting them out of our country.

24:57We'll continue to look at what Congress brings forward.

25:01Remember that if people don't like the law, they can change it.

25:05They just need to have Congress do that.

25:06What we do is that we implement and we uphold the law.

25:10Yes.

25:14Yes.

25:19I don't have any more details that I can share with you.

25:22I do want to introduce a couple of people that I have behind me.

25:25I have with me Hobb McNeil and Adam Stahl, who are the leadership team at TSA,

25:30and they are the ones that have been deep involved in these security procedures

25:34that we undertake every day and checkpoints and making sure that they're effective.

25:38And then also looking at some of the policies we have today

25:41as to how we can add technology to streamline some of the processes

25:46and maybe remove some of the requirements that we do have today.

25:49So as we implement new technologies at checkpoints,

25:52that may be one of those procedures that we can evaluate

25:56and not require for passengers anymore.

25:58And remember, every single thing that happens at a checkpoint today is being evaluated,

26:03and we're very excited to partner with a lot of private companies

26:05to bring us the technology we need to streamline this experience.

26:09Yes, sir.

26:19We have a layered security process right now that we did not have,

26:23I would say, five to seven years ago.

26:25And the technology and scanners of either luggage or individuals

26:29and the exit lanes as well streamlines it, makes it go a lot faster.

26:33Every time you have more and more agents out here that are required to do more hands-on,

26:38it slows things down for those passengers.

26:40So we are currently talking to many different companies

26:44about what they can do to streamline their processes

26:47as far as combining the screening process

26:49so that individuals can walk into a checkpoint

26:51and not have to take off their shoes.

26:54The next ones that we will be evaluating is what it requires for the liquids,

26:58for removing electronics, all of those.

27:00My goal would be that someday someone could walk into an airport,

27:03walk through a scanner, and go right to their airplane.

27:07That's the goal, and that's the challenge I put in front of TSA and these companies,

27:10and I'm hopeful that we'll continue to be able to make good announcements like this.

27:13I've noticed that, too.

27:32Yes, we're streamlining our training and our management as well.

27:36And one thing I'll remind some folks is we've got some airports in this country

27:40that also have private companies that do the screening, TSA contracts with them.

27:45But we do think it needs to be consistent, and we are working to do that

27:49and to make sure that every passenger, when they walk in,

27:52that they know exactly what's expected of them so that it can go faster

27:55and be much more streamlined so it's more efficient.

27:59My last question.

28:00Sure.

28:01Well, one of the things that we're excited about is with the bill that just passed

28:12that had resources in it, President Trump's big, beautiful bill,

28:15had resources for TSA that will have the ability to invest in that technology.

28:19So we have hundreds and hundreds of airports across the country.

28:23So it's a big investment, but I'm also looking for a private-public partnership

28:27in a way that will be really accountable to taxpayers and take our dollars even farther

28:32to make sure we get the best technology,

28:34but also negotiating that contract for the constant upgrades that are necessary

28:38when you implement that kind of opportunity and machines like you see in front of us.

28:43When we go to the next level, it's going to be something that we'll need to continuously stay on top of

28:49so that we can stay on top of the threats that are out there as well.

28:52Yes, ma'am.

28:57Okay.

29:03Yeah.

29:11Mm-hmm.

29:15Yeah, what I would say to them is to go home.

29:18They still have the opportunity to self-deport, to go back to their country.

29:23Right now we're buying plane tickets for people to go back to their home countries.

29:26And also when they land, we give them $1,000.

29:30And then they get the opportunity to come back the right way.

29:34That is still the very best option for everybody who's in this country illegally.

29:38And that would be my hope is what they would do.

29:39I've actually gone to, I think it's 10 different countries already,

29:44and talked to those countries about supporting their citizens when they come back home.

29:47Many countries in Latin America have instituted already programs that when individuals come

29:53back home, they will give them loans for houses.
