The Strait of Hormuz is a strategic waterway between the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Persian Gulf that is home to 90% of Iran's oil exports. It's a key supply route for the country's crude oil and natural gas. President Trump has threatened to strike Iranian oil facilities and facilities in the Strait if they try to block it.

00:00:00.000 out here in 2026, you are president. Are you thinking about taking Karg Island where 90%
00:00:05.860 of the Iranian oil goes through? And what do you think about, do you remember
00:00:09.820 that interview and that, that, uh, school of thought? Yeah, but Brian, I can't answer a
00:00:16.680 question like that. You should, and you should ask it. You shouldn't be even asking it. Uh,
00:00:21.240 it's one of so many different things. It's not high on the list, but it's one of so many
00:00:26.240 different things and i can change my mind in seconds but you know for you to ask a question
00:00:31.400 who would answer a question like that i mean you're asking me a question carg island okay
00:00:36.620 everything who would ask a question like that and what fool would answer it okay let's say i was
00:00:42.500 going to do it or let's say i wasn't going to do it what would i tell you oh yes brian i'm thinking
00:00:46.800 about doing it let me uh let me let you know what time and when it'll take place it's not
00:00:52.420 You know, it's sort of a foolish question.
00:00:54.360 A little surprising for you because you're a smart man.
00:00:56.900 I am, but you were just pretty amazing that you thought about it in 1988.
00:00:59.960 Moments ago, at my direction, the United States Central Command executed one of the most powerful bombing raids in the history of the Middle East
00:01:07.100 and totally obliterated every military target in Iran's crown jewel, Karg Island.
00:01:12.760 He continues,
00:01:13.280 Our weapons are the most powerful and sophisticated that the world has ever known,
00:01:17.220 But for reasons of decency, I've chosen not to wipe out the oil infrastructure on the island.
00:01:22.960 The president then adds, however, should Iran or anyone else do anything to interfere with the free and safe passage of ships through the Strait of Hormuz?
00:01:30.560 I will immediately reconsider this decision.
00:01:33.900 Now, Karg Island is where most of Iran's oil exports flow.
00:01:37.160 It has gone untouched until now.
00:01:38.940 Also, we should point out today, we learned that some 2,500 Marines and sailors are headed into the region.
00:01:44.220 And though we don't yet know what this Marine Expeditionary Unit's mission is or may be,
00:01:49.500 they are traditionally used for large-scale evacuations as well as amphibious assaults.
00:01:54.280 The president, as you know, has neither ruled out ground combat,
00:01:58.420 or hasn't ruled it in or out, I should say.
00:02:01.180 What Trump says that military targets were struck,
00:02:04.860 but why not effectively try to take over the island to control the oil coming out of there?
00:02:10.480 If he had done that, it would have been a major escalation.
00:02:14.220 Ninety percent of Iran's oil experts go through this one tiny island.
00:02:18.040 It's about five miles long, about 20 miles out into the Persian Gulf.
00:02:22.220 And so this is a Trump pressure tactic.
00:02:24.960 This is, you know, I'm going to strike all the military targets on this island, but I'm not going to all these refineries and other things like that.
00:02:30.840 I think he's just trying to, again, pressure the Iranian regime, which the administration seems to think is going to work.
00:02:37.980 You know, more bombs and more pressure and they're just going to cave.
00:02:41.020 I don't I don't think this strike will force them to cave, but that's why it's significant that he did not take out all that oil infrastructure.
00:02:48.300 And then most importantly, if he took out all the oil infrastructure, that would drive up oil prices.
00:02:53.600 What do you see tomorrow? What do you see the next day? They're going to be hit so hard.
00:02:57.760 They're going to be hit. They can talk all they want. But, you know, let's see what they do.
00:03:02.200 So they're going to maybe do something having to do with the straits. I don't know.
00:03:06.600 But they're being hit so hard. It'll take them 20 years to rebuild.
00:03:10.220 They have a very professional military. People are going to do their jobs. They're going to do them very professionally. I think there has to be some question about where is this all leading? What was the plan? What is the strategy? And we've heard a number of different versions of that. I think it's helpful for the military to have a clear objective, a clear mission.
00:03:27.980 Julian described the situation in the Straits very accurately.
00:03:30.780 It's a very tough problem.
00:03:32.160 It's a problem we've been looking at, I've been looking at in scenarios for 20 or 30 years now.
00:03:37.020 It's going to take a large force.
00:03:38.660 I think our military people, our professionals understand that.
00:03:41.560 And you're probably going to have to have a significant ground force,
00:03:43.720 and you're probably going to have to stay there for a while.
00:03:45.200 And you're going to take a lot of casualties doing that.
00:03:47.720 That's what it would take to get a determiner on to a position where we could assure shipping,
00:03:53.180 yet it was safe to go through the Straits.
00:03:54.820 And that's not where we are now.
00:03:56.080 and I don't see a clear path to get there anytime soon. This is a good time to declare victory and
00:04:00.680 get out, and that is clearly what the markets would like to see. You are seeing, however,
00:04:06.120 a faction of people, I'd say largely but not exclusively in the Republican Party, who want
00:04:11.360 to escalate the war and are calling for things like ground troops or regime change, or they
00:04:19.660 simply want the pounding of Iran to just keep going on and on. I saw an op-ed in the Wall Street
00:04:24.420 journal to that effect that we shouldn't try and find an off ramp. We should just keep going with
00:04:28.660 this. And I just want to lay out, I think, some of the risks of what an escalatory approach could
00:04:36.020 entail. So first of all, we're all seeing that the Straits of Ormuz are closed right now. We don't
00:04:42.320 want that to persist longer than it has to. But there are actually worse outcomes than that.
00:04:48.820 So if the Iranians get hit, if their oil and gas infrastructure gets hit, they've already
00:04:54.960 said they're going to engage in tit-for-tat retaliation against the Gulf states.
00:04:58.940 And we saw there was recently the Iranians blew up this giant oil depot in Oman.
00:05:04.800 You saw some of those images.
00:05:06.620 They could continue to target the oil and gas infrastructure across the Gulf states.
00:05:12.240 And if that happens, it won't really matter if the straits get reopened because you won't
00:05:16.540 be able to restart oil and gas production in the Middle East. So that would be, I think,
00:05:21.020 a much worse outcome that could result from escalation. Furthermore, there's an even worse,
00:05:26.920 I think, scenario from there, which is the region is very dependent on desalination plants.
00:05:33.100 I think something like 70% of Riyadh gets their water from desalination. I think it's something
00:05:37.900 like 100 million people on the Arabian Peninsula that get their water from desal. I mean, it's
00:05:43.180 basically a desert, right? And those desal plants are soft targets. You already saw there was,
00:05:48.720 I think there was one desal plant in Iran that got hit. And then it caused Iran again,
00:05:52.820 tit for tat to hit a desal plant. I think it was in Kuwait. I could be off about that.
00:05:57.860 But in any event, if you see that type of destruction continue, you could literally
00:06:02.600 render the Gulf almost uninhabitable. I mean, you're just not going to have enough water for
00:06:07.680 hundred million people. And human beings just cannot survive very long without water. So that
00:06:13.080 would be a truly catastrophic scenario. And we're talking about destroying the Gulf States
00:06:19.160 economically, and then also from a humanitarian perspective. So I think we have to take things
00:06:23.960 like this into account when you hear people preaching for or advocating for escalation.
00:06:28.760 You also have to, I think, consider the impacts on Israel. I mean, it's hard to know exactly
00:06:33.720 how much damage Israel is taking right now. There's a social media blackout. But what you're
00:06:39.480 starting to hear trickle out is that Israel is getting hit harder than they've ever been hit
00:06:43.420 before in their history. And we're only two weeks into this. If this war continues for weeks or
00:06:47.980 months, then Israel could just be destroyed or very large parts of it. Now, I think Israel is
00:06:55.460 a harder target than the Gulf states. Their infrastructure is more hardened. Also, they're
00:07:00.020 further away. The Gulf states are vulnerable to drones and short-range missiles, whereas
00:07:05.340 Israel is mainly vulnerable to long-range missiles. Nonetheless, at some point, their
00:07:10.700 air defenses could become exhausted if it hasn't happened already, and Israel could get seriously
00:07:16.060 destroyed. And then you have to worry about Israel escalating the war by contemplating using a
00:07:21.020 nuclear weapon, which would truly be catastrophic. So there's a lot of scenarios here, a lot of
00:07:27.880 really frightening scenarios about where escalation could lead. And even though the United States is
00:07:34.920 a much more powerful country than Iran, they essentially have a dead man's switch over the
00:07:40.640 economic fate of the Gulf states and even potentially beyond that, you know, the habitability
00:07:46.660 of some of these countries. We are learning new details about yesterday's attack on the
00:07:51.340 Michigan synagogue. Sources tell CNN that the assailant had previously been flagged in U.S.
00:07:55.880 government databases for connections with the terror group Hezbollah.
00:08:00.120 I'm joined now by CNN's chief law enforcement and intelligence analyst, John Miller.
00:08:04.500 So, John, what was the extent of the suspect's ties to Hezbollah?
00:08:08.940 Well, the federal government said they had nothing to tie him to Hezbollah, but he was
00:08:13.760 tied through communications, telephone records, and other things to members of Hezbollah.
00:08:19.480 And this came up when he came back from a trip to Lebanon in 2019.
00:08:23.060 He was flagged by the system because of that note, and Customs and Border Protection people, we are told, by law enforcement sources, went through his phone and found those Hezbollah members' names in his contact list.
00:08:36.700 We also now know that his brothers and nephews were killed in an Israeli strike against Hezbollah targets just days ago in Lebanon.
00:08:47.360 So that really kind of points us to a probable motive for this attack.
00:08:53.480 There's a few things we need to do.
00:08:54.920 One, we need to make sure the border remains closed.
00:08:57.620 The deportations need to continue, regardless of the Democrat whining about it.
00:09:02.400 They don't think that a sovereign country should ever be able to tell people who can come and who should have to leave.
00:09:08.360 We should not relent on that.
00:09:10.240 And then also we need to reform our legal immigration system, Laura.
00:09:13.200 A lot of these people have come in legally.
00:09:14.980 A lot of American workers have been displaced by foreign workers.
00:09:18.400 A lot of American students have been displaced by these visa mills at universities and tax breaks that companies get after the fact.
00:09:25.240 So we've got a lot of work to do, but we clearly have laws right now that need to be enforced.
00:09:29.680 Federal law enforcement can't enforce those.
00:09:31.760 And I just want to point out one thing.
00:09:33.040 The insanity of the sanctuary jurisdictions that they defend, it literally means that this monster that stabbed the woman in Virginia to death,
00:09:42.380 who has 30 priors and a legal immigrant,
00:09:45.640 that governor will not tell federal law enforcement or ICE
00:09:49.060 when that person gets released from prison.
00:09:50.920 They will not tell federal law enforcement
00:09:53.200 when rapists and murders are released into our communities.
00:09:55.460 One of the objectives now is to keep gas prices down,
00:09:59.180 to get shipping moving,
00:10:00.340 and the way to do that is to put troops on the ground in Iran?
00:10:04.620 So, it's a good question.
00:10:07.000 I mean, one thing we know about Donald Trump
00:10:09.320 is that he does not like a long conflict, right?
00:10:13.060 We, you know, this is what is so different about this war right here.
00:10:18.020 Venezuela was planned to be a very short in and out operation.
00:10:23.200 He put a strict limit on his bombing of Iran last year.
00:10:29.620 This seems potentially much more open-ended.
00:10:34.300 We're now talking about ground troops.
00:10:36.760 But if we know Donald Trump and everyone in America is an expert on Donald Trump, we know that he is going to probably balk before he really commits to something that's going to be a long-term presence on the ground.
00:10:53.780 So I think it's too early to say that we're going to have a marine operation taking one of the islands in the Straits or doing something.
00:11:03.880 But we have to be asking these questions.
00:11:06.060 We have to try to figure out what their plan is
00:11:08.340 and what the options that people are putting before him are.
00:11:14.480 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.
00:11:19.580 Pray for our enemies, because we're going medieval on these people.
00:11:24.700 I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.
00:11:28.960 The people have had a belly full of it.
00:11:30.860 I know you don't like hearing that.
00:11:32.040 I know you've tried to do everything in the world to stop that,
00:11:34.060 but you're not going to stop it.
00:11:34.920 It's going to happen.
00:11:36.260 And where do people like that go to share the big lie?
00:11:39.660 MAGA Media.
00:11:41.000 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.
00:11:46.400 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?
00:11:50.200 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.
00:11:56.380 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.
00:12:04.920 saturday 14 march year of alert 2026 overnight one of the most intense and i think you can take
00:12:13.640 it that virtually every day and this is why we're doing sunday shows now um to match our saturday
00:12:19.940 show 10 a.m to noon 12 noon eastern daylight time in our traditional morning slot because every day
00:12:26.860 it seems like the the kinetic part of this is ratcheting up the overnight a strategic bombing
00:12:35.640 of karg island to take out the military infrastructure on karg island and not to
00:12:41.480 and to leave untouched or virtually untouched the oil refinery and oil infrastructure capability
00:12:50.240 of the iranian regime ordered yesterday an amphibious ready group out of japan uh the
00:12:58.880 release so they talked about 5 000 but they've only mentioned the uss tripoli 2500 uh marines
00:13:05.680 uh heading to um with support ships and combatants heading to uh heading to the north arabian sea
00:13:13.680 the gulf of oman uh in this uh in this bombing campaign at the same time the israelis
00:13:19.420 uh leaked uh to axios that they were planning the most massive ground invasion for 20 years since
00:13:26.580 2006 into lebanon and that seems to be in the in the planning stages but the kinetic part of this
00:13:32.440 ratcheted up dramatically overnight uh also additional bombing targets in in tehran
00:13:38.160 uh my understanding is israel did get hit again uh last night uh i think you heard right there
00:13:44.460 david sachs david sachs is um is the crypto czar but also the artificial intelligence czar as you
00:13:52.140 know we don't agree with david sachs on many many things but i think um that was a very um you know
00:13:59.980 ripped from the pages of war room walk through the only thing i would say is that i think
00:14:06.700 off-ramps and we were one that discussed off-ramps in the first couple of days of this war
00:14:11.580 You're in it now, and particularly in the Persian Gulf.
00:14:16.480 The center of gravity of this war has shifted to the oil and to the Persian Gulf.
00:14:21.300 We'll have a clip when we get back.
00:14:23.040 As soon as we came on, it looks like UAE, an oil depot, or one of their big refiners, may have been hit just moments ago.
00:14:33.300 Also, reports from Agency Free Press or Agency France Press that 10 ballistic missiles, experimental or just practice ballistic missiles, fired by the North Koreans overnight.
00:14:46.280 We're going to get to all of that.
00:14:48.100 Reagan Reese, the White House correspondent for The Daily Caller, will join us after a short commercial break.

00:16:36.700 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Bannon.
00:16:40.020 okay there is so much going on right now um and we're going to put this all in perspective of
00:16:47.680 this let's say this uh as we have said uh many times over the i guess the last 10 days for
00:16:54.700 i think this is the 14th day of the war i believe it's the 14th day of the war um
00:17:00.320 the center of gravity of this as we've said has shifted to the the gulf uh not just straights
00:17:09.120 her moves but the entire situation of our allies there david sacks talking about desalination and
00:17:15.600 water which this could quickly become more of a water war even than an oil war of the 100 million
00:17:20.880 people you know living in the in the gulf and the other environs um because this regime is in
00:17:28.520 president trump i think said or pete said it the other day there's a bunch of rats cornered well
00:17:33.040 these these are definitely cornered rats and they're very tough hombres and they come from
00:17:38.580 a messianic apocalyptic culture so they're going to fight to the end there i don't think there's
00:17:44.700 much surrender in these guys so you're just going to have to hunker down for it but i just don't
00:17:51.420 think you know oh claiming victory things we could have done could have been possibilities
00:17:56.060 in the first four five six days of this war i just don't think are possibilities now because
00:18:01.020 this situation uh in the gulf and of course you know the dramatic nature of it because of
00:18:08.180 the calling up of the um the amphibious ready group yesterday this bombing and look these
00:18:15.740 things aren't they don't put these together in a couple hours that amphibious ready group is
00:18:20.740 something they've thought through in their planning it's down you go down the you know
00:18:25.840 the list of what you do and here's what we're going to do and maybe we need this now that's
00:18:30.040 when you kick it in also the bombing last night appears have been so lethal and of course our
00:18:36.500 it shows you once again air supremacy or at least you know full-scale you know air dominance
00:18:44.140 over certain elements of uh of iran uh that the military can pull it off with another tremendous
00:18:51.960 expeditionary evolution just like the end of the 12-day war uh but this thing gets more and more
00:18:58.680 complex every day reagan so reagan first off he's the white house correspondent you've also got a
00:19:03.860 great piece of sub stack i'm gonna get to in a moment about the pentagon but how do you i want
00:19:09.840 to give my the raft team and my own production team a hat tip because every day they are curating
00:19:16.440 everything that's going on in the world and curated down to 10 12 13 14 minutes of the best
00:19:23.180 video and are able to juxtapose what things are saying but that takes a team to go through it and
00:19:28.400 these young people are very focused on every minute of what's happening in this war
00:19:33.800 How does one juggle what's happening between the White House, the press briefings, the Pentagon, when you've got so much else going on that President Trump is doing, in addition that we are now fighting a major conflict, ma'am?
00:19:47.420 Yeah, well, this is definitely the main focus.
00:19:50.680 And I think the biggest thing that has happened in President Trump's administration thus far.
00:19:57.140 And so that is where my focus is.
00:19:59.640 and I'm bouncing back and forth between the Pentagon press briefings, the White House press
00:20:03.420 briefings. If the White House has background calls with officials, I'm jumping on those,
00:20:09.000 trying to meet with as many Pentagon sources as I can on the side. You know, I'll admit it,
00:20:14.620 I'm young. This is my first time covering a war. And so there's so much information and there's also
00:20:21.220 so much I don't know. And so what we're trying to do right now is one, ask the questions that
00:20:26.620 our audience wants to know. What do they feel like is unanswered about this war? And then also
00:20:31.420 try to parse through the administration's messaging on the Iranian war. I think it's been
00:20:37.520 hard to follow. I am not completely sure exactly what the objectives are left. What do we still
00:20:47.720 have left to achieve in this war? Why did we strike exactly now? What was the real reasoning
00:20:54.420 there. We've heard several different things. So trying to get answers on that front. And then
00:20:59.440 just on the White House and all the other things that the president's doing, the first press
00:21:04.320 briefing that Caroline Levitt had after the United States struck Iran, everyone asked about Iran.
00:21:11.480 I'd already been into Pentagon press briefings at that point. I was the only one who asked about a
00:21:16.200 domestic issue. We asked about the SAVE Act because that matters to the American people too.
00:21:20.620 They want to see the president talk about domestic issues and care about those things.
00:21:26.200 And so just finding that balance of covering this war that is going to impact people back
00:21:30.800 home, but also highlighting those domestic things that the American people desperately
00:21:35.420 need the president to focus on.
00:21:39.240 No, I think it's, this is why I wanted you on this morning, because like Breitbart, the
00:21:43.660 Daily Caller, I would say is a institution that has supported the president.
00:21:49.600 you've i think had a one-on-one with the president correct me or wrong didn't you i think you did an
00:21:53.660 oval office interview one-on-one with the president shows you the esteem that caroline
00:21:58.640 levitt and the team over there stephen chung hold your reporting and that's why i think it's very
00:22:03.180 fascinating uh to uh the sub stack that you did and i want if we can put the sub stack up here's
00:22:09.900 what i would like to do i want to play a short clip we had the pete hegseth clip from yesterday
00:22:14.720 i is that ready yet okay i need a yes or no okay fine thank you uh so let's go to your sub stack
00:22:22.000 uh ma'am what what is the uh walk me through the sub stack you wrote about mondays you cover in
00:22:27.000 the pentagon on monday yes so as probably most of your viewers know the pentagon shook up their
00:22:35.560 press briefing room they had people sign uh an agreement on covering the pentagon it had a set
00:22:41.340 of rules. There are only a select few of outlets that chose to sign that agreement. And then a lot
00:22:47.300 of people like the mainstream media didn't sign that agreement. We at the Daily Caller, we didn't
00:22:50.900 actually sign that agreement. But we've been working on our relationship with the Pentagon
00:22:55.400 to make sure that we can still be able to get answers at press briefings and cover events and
00:23:00.920 et cetera. And so what this has done is now that there are press briefings being regularly held at
00:23:06.800 the Pentagon. It has put outlets like myself, those who have signed the agreement, Real America's
00:23:12.440 Voice, Lindell TV, et cetera, all in the first two rows of the press briefing. It has put all
00:23:19.740 of the mainstream media outlets, ABC, CBS, you name it, in the back of the room. And so there
00:23:26.540 have been four press briefings, I believe, at the Pentagon. And I have to tell you, Steve,
00:23:31.880 it has been so uncomfortable. I've never experienced anything like this. The mainstream
00:23:36.380 media reporters, they come in and they start loudly complaining and saying, oh, I'm in the
00:23:42.860 back of the room again. Where's my CEO? It's in the back of the room. And they're making all these
00:23:47.900 vocal complaints. And then they will walk around the first two rows where me and my colleagues are
00:23:54.740 sitting. Daily Wire is also one of those outlets, Center Square, One America News. And they will
00:24:01.080 look at each seat in the front and second row. And they're looking for their name. They're all
00:24:05.020 signed seating. And they'll, you know, sigh and kind of huff and puff in our direction when they
00:24:10.560 don't find their seat in the first two rows. There was a comment that was made at the last
00:24:16.340 press briefing on Friday, a mainstream media reporter was remarking how he was excited at that
00:24:22.680 regular media, meaning them got called on more than the new media and outlets like myself. And so
00:24:29.260 I write in the piece, the White House press corps is supposed to be the worst of the worst.
00:24:34.680 I've been a part of it for three years now.
00:24:36.820 I have never experienced anything this uncomfortable and this petty than I have in the Pentagon the last couple of weeks.
00:24:45.580 Because those guys are dug in at the Pentagon.
00:24:47.820 You'll find out that they're dug into that building at their own ways.
00:24:50.920 But if I can make an observation, I think that the new media, and look, you get some softball questions you can tell, or I'm not saying they're planted, but you get some softball questions.
00:25:04.600 from, from some of the new media, but by and large, I am very impressed with the new media
00:25:10.660 people that have come in of some of the sharp questions and really questions asking for real
00:25:16.040 analytics to come out. And I think it's made, I think it's made the, uh, the mainstream media
00:25:23.120 guys even better because they realized that, Hey, there's some sharp young people here and
00:25:26.960 they're asking good questions. So I got to step up for the wall street journal or for the New York
00:25:31.020 times that's my observation i don't know how it feels like in the room but we watch these every
00:25:36.420 day very closely and kind of go through it to curate but i think by and large the new media
00:25:41.140 have come in to like say hey we got something to prove i think the questions have been great
00:25:45.620 by and large and i think it's made the mainstream media i'm not saying less snarky and more to get
00:25:52.760 to the facts of the matter than to give editorial comment your your thoughts on that well definitely
00:25:59.060 First, I'll say I acknowledge some of these reporters that are in the Pentagon press briefing of the mainstream media.
00:26:05.620 They've actually been reporting in two war zones and really have been in the thick of it and they have decades of experience.
00:26:12.200 I don't have that. I know I don't have that.
00:26:15.100 But that doesn't make the questions we've asked in the briefing room any less valid.
00:26:19.720 It's the same way that the White House has brought in new outlets that have a different perspective.
00:26:25.220 There are questions from a different subset of America that need to be asked, that they want to know. And so while I've been in the Pentagon press briefing room, we have asked about what the actual objectives are of this war. What are we really trying to accomplish?
00:26:40.180 if we wanted the names of the U.S. casualties and wanted more details on how they were killed.
00:26:47.200 Those are just two examples of the questions that we're asking. We want to ask more about
00:26:51.400 drone attacks and the Strait of Hormuz and how are you going to secure that?
00:26:57.000 All of these things are, like you said, getting down to the nitty gritty of war. But also talk
00:27:02.940 about the things that the Americans are wondering, is this going to impact them back home? What do
00:27:07.640 they need to be prepared for? And, you know, the other thing I'll say is I think a lot of the
00:27:12.900 new reporters are probably a little bit younger. We adapt more to the social media and stuff like
00:27:19.060 that. And I can imagine that also creates some friction as well, because we're using our phones
00:27:24.660 and using all the different platforms that we have to create content and forcing the legacy
00:27:30.800 media reporters around us to adapt in that way, I think is also causing some friction as well.
00:27:37.640 no it's definitely but i think it's i think friction often like on a movie set friction's
00:27:42.840 actually good it gets more creative look the president still the fundamental way he puts
00:27:48.280 things out besides these phone calls with reporters is put it down on social media
00:27:52.280 reagan hang over a second i want to drill down a little bit on yesterday's press briefing over at
00:27:57.080 the uh i think it was yesterday or thursday kind of all blends together we'll get it up in a second
00:28:02.040 reagan reese is with us she is the white house correspondent for the daily caller also
00:28:07.480 covering some of the pentagon briefings and these young people i think are doing a great job
00:28:12.840 hustling finding information asking tough questions and getting pushback as they should
00:28:19.720 it's creative the creative process of going through and getting to the truth because remember
00:28:25.160 the truth is the first casualty in war short commercial break back in a moment
00:28:32.040 i've got a question for you how do you usually get your medication let me guess you call the
00:28:39.720 doctor away from an appointment to get a prescription sit in a waiting room then you
00:28:43.980 stand around and lie at the pharmacy hoping they actually have what you need that's not convenient
00:28:49.520 that's a system that doesn't work there's a better way and that way is where all family
00:28:56.380 pharmacy comes in they take the hassle out of the process you go online select what you're
00:29:01.800 looking for complete a short medical form and a licensed physician reviews your request if it's

00:29:55.420 Korea is not taking it lightly. Well, earlier in the day, Seoul's northern neighbor fired a round
00:30:00.240 of 10 ballistic missiles towards the East Sea. North Korea's missile launch was an apparent
00:30:05.340 flexing of muscles against the South Korea and U.S. joint military exercise. According to South
00:30:10.760 Koreans and the Japanese militaries, the missiles were launched from North Korea's west coast.
00:30:15.900 now japan estimates that the missiles reached a maximum altitude of 80 kilometers
00:30:25.660 and flew approximately 340 kilometers before landing near the east coast of the korean peninsula
00:30:31.960 and outside tokyo's exclusive economic zone look at the smoke from a fire burning at an oil port
00:30:38.800 at the uae debris from an intercepted drone fell this morning near the strait of hormuz officials
00:30:44.360 say no injuries were reported, though sources say some operations were suspended. And this
00:30:50.060 comes hours after U.S. strikes on Iran's Karg Island. As Oren discussed, Iran has warned that
00:30:55.820 ports and docks in the UAE could be targeted. CNN's Paula Hancox is with us now from the UAE
00:31:02.880 in Abu Dhabi. What do you know? Well, Victor, we've certainly seen the UAE has been singled
00:31:10.080 out for the most amount of missiles and drones over the past two weeks. And now another threat
00:31:15.900 from Iranian officials that it will be targeted even more. This is the latest that we have heard
00:31:22.360 from the spokesperson of the armed forces. It comes after the U.S. attack on Karg Island,
00:31:30.280 even though it was military targets that were taken out. We did hear from the U.S. president
00:31:35.020 saying it could be oil infrastructure next if the Strait of Hormuz is not back to normal.
00:31:41.400 So I'll quote what we heard from this statement, saying,
00:31:44.800 We warned the UAE leadership that the Islamic Republic of Iran views it as its legitimate right to strike the origins of American missile launches,
00:31:54.460 Those concealed in ports, docks and shelters used by U.S. forces under the cover of Emirati cities in defense of its national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
00:32:06.860 Now, it's worth pointing out that the UAE maintains that its defensive posture remains unchanged.
00:32:13.520 We've certainly not heard anything different to that.
00:32:16.740 But Iran feeling that some of these missiles are coming from Emirati territory, despite no confirmation or suggestion that that is, in fact, accurate.
00:32:30.340 OK, and people know MBZ, really the leader of the UAE, is our strongest ally, at least military ally in the region.
00:32:41.000 Also, Scott Best, when we get to this more later,
00:32:43.440 Epoch Times is going to join us.
00:32:45.000 Scott Best and Secretary of Treasury in Paris,
00:32:48.060 even as we speak, negotiating with the Chinese over the trade deal.
00:32:52.340 Looks like the state visit is on.
00:32:53.940 We'll deal more with that.
00:32:55.000 You heard the situation in East Asia with the North Koreans
00:32:59.460 during our joint military exercise with the South Koreans.
00:33:03.280 And the South Korean prime minister didn't get a lot of publicity.
00:33:06.960 actually went and met with the president i think on thursday uh not a really uh an announced uh
00:33:13.340 visit uh reagan reese is going to stick with us and come back in a second we'll deal more with
00:33:18.600 the pentagon and some of the not just messaging but actually the action that's taking place versus
00:33:23.500 the description of the action uh human khalili joins us now from san francisco uh human thank
00:33:30.240 you very much uh we've got some folks talk talk to us about what you're doing it's a fascinating
00:33:34.420 project uh we haven't dealt a lot with the humanitarian side here in the war room we've
00:33:39.720 been very focused on kind of the geopolitics the economics of it all and what's actually happened
00:33:44.880 how this thing's going to play out but you've got a project uh and you're going to be at cpac
00:33:49.560 next week to unfurl it talk to us about your project
00:33:52.500 okay we have to take him off mute
00:34:00.480 take two steve thank you so much for having me yeah hang hang hang on let's let's take it let's
00:34:07.880 yeah let's take it from the top go ahead steve thank you so much for having me it's a real
00:34:13.700 honor to be here um i'm the only artist in the world asked by the state of israel to make murals
00:34:19.060 in support of the women of iran i was born muslim i'm a christian now uh and i was raised in the san
00:34:26.040 francisco bay area i did 17 trips in 21 months and i unveiled 18 woman life freedom murals in the
00:34:34.280 holy land these murals show the world uh that israel is the only country in the middle east
00:34:41.040 that allows a mural with a woman's hair to be shown um all right well i guess we're going to
00:34:47.160 get to the slides right now in iran if a woman shows her hair uh the supreme leader said she's
00:34:54.780 making war on god and when you say the words war on god you are saying you can do anything you want
00:35:01.400 to that woman so obviously shooting him in the head is the most obvious choice but one of the
00:35:07.720 things the islamic regime does is they'll take a gun and they'll shoot out one of the eyes of a
00:35:13.060 woman who shows her hair. This woman here, her name is Gazal, and they shot out her eye. And so
00:35:18.920 I wanted the world to see this, but I'm making art, you know, I'm an artist. So how do I turn
00:35:24.400 this into something beautiful? If you show the next slide here, this is a mural that I made in
00:35:31.560 Natanya. I worked with an artist named Benzie Brofman, who took my design and brought it to
00:35:36.460 life. The bird covering her eye is the hoopoe. It's mentioned in the book of Leviticus to show
00:35:42.440 that, hey, this woman lost an eye. And just to show the world, hey, this is the brutality of
00:35:48.300 the Islamic regime towards its own people. If they're this brutal to their own people,
00:35:53.220 how brutal are they going to be to the rest of the world? If we could go to the next slide.
00:35:59.460 This is President Raisi, the former president of Iran. This man is responsible for killing
00:36:06.060 20,000 of his own people, 20,000, many of them women for showing their hair.
00:36:12.440 His helicopter mysteriously crashed in the Alborz mountains.
00:36:16.820 If we go to the next slide, this is all of the women he killed using their hair to pull
00:36:24.180 down his helicopter.
00:36:25.760 Now, in this design here, there's a Bible verse, Jeremiah 49, 38.
00:36:31.860 In the Bible, there's a theme, and the theme is God says over and over again, I'm going
00:36:37.040 to put my throne in Jerusalem.
00:36:38.400 I'm going to put my throne in Zion.
00:36:40.140 I'm going to put my throne in Israel.
00:36:41.520 but in jeremiah 49 38 god says i'm going to set my throne in elam and destroy her king and
00:36:47.600 officials declares the lord well elam is the ancient name of iran and to fulfill that bible
00:36:53.160 verse i put in the hand of god like god is destroying the kings and officials of iran
00:36:59.520 yeah go to the next slide so hang on hang hang on a second hang on some four more slides let me just
00:37:05.180 i want to make sure the audience that we frame this properly you're actually persian correct
00:37:10.520 i mean you you your family or your mom left uh when the shah fell yeah so uh yeah i was born in
00:37:18.460 iran my mom escaped with one suitcase five thousand dollars three-year-old boy in 1978
00:37:23.720 six months before the shah fell that's exactly right as much as this may you know confront us
00:37:30.500 as westerners is there because right now you have not seen any real uprising i mean one of the one
00:37:37.900 of the um i don't call it bets but one of the premises i think of a lot of the initial military
00:37:44.260 action he just had netanyahu on uh national tv in israel the other day although i don't know if
00:37:51.400 his message resonates in tehran much but he called for an uprising in the streets
00:37:55.660 we haven't seen nearly the uprising we saw uh a couple about a month ago in late january where 20
00:38:02.540 or 30 000 were killed but it is because of the bombing has this become more of a person persian
00:38:08.980 nationalist and that the all of the obviously crimes against the iranian people as you show in
00:38:14.680 your art and particularly against women focus a lot of it on women is that really moving people
00:38:20.760 right now or are they kind of dug in in supporting the regime no so i think one of the things we
00:38:28.380 have to agree upon is in Iran, only the bad guys have guns. And so you have 2 million people with
00:38:34.680 guns holding down 90 million people. This whole idea of the people rising up, it is possible and
00:38:42.340 they can rise up. But the people of Iran need to be armed. If we can show the next slide, let me
00:38:48.860 show you the mural that I just unveiled in Indiana across the street from where the Indianapolis
00:38:54.600 Colts play. If you have that slide ready, this woman's name is Nika Shakurami. She was killed
00:39:00.260 at 15 years old. I just want you to see what she looks like in real life. Now show the mural,
00:39:05.140 the next slide. Here is her holding an AK-47 with a flag behind her. And the flag says President
00:39:12.660 Trump armed the women of Iran. The Americans have armed women in the past. They do it in Syria,
00:39:19.400 right to to hold back isis they they armed the kurdish women there and so it in here you see
00:39:27.320 esters rise up this whole idea of the esters rising up so this whole idea of yes the people
00:39:34.140 can rise up but give them a chance to defend themselves give them some sort of uh weapons
00:39:41.320 because right now it's not a fair fight and i know you said 20 or 30 000 were killed but honestly
00:39:47.420 all of us persians know it's 50 000 plus were killed in three days in iran this is a massacre
00:39:54.320 and the reason is because the bad guys the islamic regime of iran they all have guns and the people
00:40:01.120 don't and they're getting slaughtered for protesting peacefully and what these murals do
00:40:07.360 is they give a voice to the people who have no voice it lets them see that they are not forgotten
00:40:13.600 And I'll go ahead, please. Right. So now, are you calling for now? Is that the purpose of the of the murals is to make sure people understand that there are freedom fighters?
00:40:24.560 There are. Let me say a different way. There are people that adamantly oppose the Islamic theocracy.
00:40:30.820 They've lived under for 47 years and they're prepared to act.
00:40:34.140 uh but you're saying that they need arms that the somehow either the israelis or the americans
00:40:39.320 somehow have to get a massive amount of arms into iran so they can i think that would make a huge
00:40:45.100 at least have somewhat near a fair fight look i'm not pro-war i'm not i'm not a guy who wants
00:40:51.060 america i'm an american i love this country i don't want american troops on the ground either
00:40:55.800 but the only way for for this to be balanced for this to be fair is yeah give the people
00:41:02.540 america's armed people throughout history and so yeah give them a chance give them a chance to
00:41:08.640 fight and defend themselves since this uprising what have the the people done they've burned down
00:41:14.860 mosques they've said we don't want this religion in our country anymore you know and i'm not
00:41:20.200 advocating for war i'm not advocating for death anything like that but all i'm saying is strength
00:41:26.580 through defense let let this be the movement strength through defense give the men and the
00:41:32.760 women a chance to defend themselves put a gun in their hand so that maybe just maybe they themselves
00:41:39.540 can overthrow the islamic regime and i just want to say one last thing any hang on hang on hang on
00:41:46.340 hang on slow down do you see any chance as you know people and cousins and other relatives in
00:41:54.860 in tehran in in persia do you see any chance of us just being able to bomb uh the uh the the
00:42:04.440 revolutionary guard or the mullahs or the ayatollahs although we've obviously pete said
00:42:09.240 we've dramatically injured uh the replacement the sun that's right you see and we got about a minute
00:42:14.360 i'll hold you through the break do you see any possibility of this collapsing unless you have
00:42:19.500 either massive arming of the Iranian people to take their fight on or some sort of ground combat
00:42:25.760 that has to take these guys on mano a mano? I've heard analysts even on your show say this is a
00:42:32.520 battle of attrition. And so it is possible through bombing and blowing up the horrible people at the
00:42:38.900 checkpoints, yes, but it will take a long time. If you arm the people of Iran and you give them a
00:42:44.940 chance to fight back and defend themselves, this could go a lot faster. I don't think America is
00:42:51.340 going to run out of bullets or military power or food or supplies. But I understand from watching
00:42:58.880 your show, Trump likes to have quick wars. He doesn't want anything drawn out. And so, yes,
00:43:05.520 it can happen through bombing and shooting. But us Persians are hoping, let's not kill the patient
00:43:12.900 while we remove the cancer.
00:43:14.580 Let's keep the patient alive
00:43:16.040 and remove the cancer at the same time.
00:43:19.840 Hunat, can you hang on for one second?
00:43:21.300 I know you've got to bounce for the airport.
00:43:22.740 No, I have time.
00:43:23.540 I'd like to hold you through the break.
00:43:24.880 I just want to...
00:43:25.560 Okay, cool.
00:43:26.400 We're going to take a short commercial break.
00:43:27.860 Take your phone out.
00:43:29.520 Now more than ever,
00:43:30.760 you might want to know why gold is a hedge.
00:43:32.760 A lot of talk about...
00:43:34.400 In fact, a report, I think it was in Reuters,
00:43:37.280 that the regime is saying
00:43:39.380 that any oil that passes through the Straits
00:43:41.660 or moves because Scott Besson said they are allowing something has to be has to be paid for
00:43:46.900 in the Chinese currency, not U.S. dollars. Fellow patriots, the Federal Reserve has betrayed
00:43:52.960 America for over a century, printing fiat, inflating away your savings, serving globalist
00:44:00.060 masters. But President Trump is ending it. President Trump is wielding a 112 year old
00:44:07.220 law to reclaim control over the rogue federal reserve he's replacing jerome powell slashing
00:44:13.160 rates and igniting america's re-industrialization this is in theory government-backed industry plus
00:44:20.400 low rates unleashes super cycles history repeats gold's already exploding miners are up 400 percent
00:44:28.780 in the last year what records is calling trump's gift is wealth for american patriots not global
00:44:35.860 handouts now it's america's turn gold to 27 000 in the coming years jim rickerts cia and pentagon
00:44:44.400 veteran says act now go to insider 2026.com that's insider 2026.com to get jim rickerts
00:44:54.300 strategic intelligence newsletter today war room here's your host stephen k man
00:45:02.320 hunan uh kalali is an artist he's going to be at cpac he's going to unfurl
00:45:10.000 uh some of these banners so people can see you get to meet him and see his work
00:45:15.220 here's the question they have been in israel and they've been unfurling there you've been putting
00:45:19.680 up there do the persian people the people in tehran would is that helping your cause of getting
00:45:25.680 the message out to and really get it back to people in tehran particularly women that there
00:45:31.720 are people on your side, or is doing in Israel look like you're collaborating with one of their
00:45:39.620 tormentors, sir? Right. So I tried to get these murals up in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, Lebanon,
00:45:47.960 Afghanistan, Qatar, and they said, absolutely not. You cannot put up a mural with a woman's
00:45:52.860 hair showing. So Israel is the only country that welcomed me. This has nothing to do with
00:45:58.040 collaborating with whoever's terrorizing them. This has to do with letting the people know that
00:46:02.920 they're not forgotten. Their sacrifice is not for nothing. And putting a person's face who's
00:46:08.520 been murdered in Jerusalem or Nazareth or the Sea of Galilee, I mean, it warms their heart.
00:46:16.660 It gives them a hope and a joy that they wouldn't have if that mural wasn't there.
00:46:21.820 The Islamic regime is really upset with these murals.
00:46:26.060 I sent you one last slide.
00:46:27.900 After I did my fourth mural, and I was number 50 or 60 to the game, the Islamic regime unveiled their own mural.
00:46:36.240 And this is in direct response to the murals I made in Israel.
00:46:40.840 And this is a picture of an atomic bomb.
00:46:44.100 And on the atomic bomb, the Islamic regime wrote 400 seconds to Tel Aviv in Hebrew.
00:46:49.560 Now, they hadn't done anything like this until four murals went up in Israel.
00:46:55.760 And so these murals provoke a response out of them.
00:47:00.660 And, you know, look, none of us are want a war.
00:47:04.520 But unless you root out what's happening with the Islamic regime of Iran, they're going to come back and they're going to come back even stronger.
00:47:13.720 And I want to say a sincere thank you to the fine people at Patriot Mobile, especially the COO, Jenny, because she sees what the women of Iran are dealing with and she's empathizing with them.
00:47:27.660 And she's saying we at our company stand with those women.
00:47:31.660 We do not want what's happening there to come here.
00:47:34.780 And none of us Persians do.
00:47:36.500 one of the things you have seen on social media is every Iranian who didn't vote for Trump coming
00:47:43.980 online and saying, thank you, Donald Trump. Thank you for freeing our people. Thank you
00:47:49.780 for killing the Ayatollah. You have more Republican Persians as a result of this,
00:47:55.620 and they are using their platforms to amplify their joy and their thanks of Donald Trump.
00:48:02.240 let me ask you i just want to make sure i got this you went to our great allies uae and qatar
00:48:10.380 and both of those turned you down for putting up any banners that showed women having showing their
00:48:16.440 hair that's exactly right and if you can look if you have access to these places and you say
00:48:22.180 hey i want this kid to put a woman life freedom mural in your country i will do it because my
00:48:27.880 goal right now is college campuses. I want these murals on all the call. I got one up at Rice
00:48:33.540 University. I want it up at Columbia, Harvard, MIT, Penn, Stanford. You know, I want to cover
00:48:41.540 this country. If you if I have access to the federal land and I can get a mural in Dearborn,
00:48:46.820 Michigan, I will go to Dearborn, Michigan and say these are the modern day real life superheroes.
00:48:52.940 These women of Iran who have the guts to show their hair, even though they're going to get
00:48:57.660 their eyes shot out even though they're going to get raped in prison even though they're going to
00:49:01.180 get shot in the head who not where do people go to find out more about your art more about you
00:49:07.220 more about your crusade here to make sure that this is shown all over the world sir yes so i have
00:49:14.000 a website it's human.tv i'm also on instagram it's human tv my name with the television at the end
00:49:22.320 I'll even give you my email tvhooman at outlook.com and like Steve said I will be at um
00:49:30.820 CPAC hopefully right next to his booth with a new banner and uh you know I'm gonna have a camera
00:49:38.860 crew there and I'm gonna interview you fine folks and say what do you think should should we be
00:49:43.540 arming the women of Iran should we give them a chance to defend themselves uh we really want
00:49:50.240 to thank patriot mobile particularly jenny's story for getting the back of this and and making it
00:49:54.660 available to us so really appreciate it human and we look forward to seeing you at cpac in a couple
00:49:58.400 weeks thanks so much steve thank you let's play do we have time let's play the um let's play the
00:50:06.620 i want to play the um clip from pete hegs that i want to bring reagan back in it's like this whole
00:50:13.800 idea of the war widening that's what the press wants to make it look like like it's widening
00:50:17.900 and chaos is ensuing. No, we're actually closing in on grabbing hold of and controlling what
00:50:23.660 objectives we want to achieve and how we want to achieve them. It's called shaping operations and
00:50:28.760 setting the conditions. But when you shape the environment, you don't always tell, I mean,
00:50:33.020 foolish political leaders and foolish military leaders of the past will hang an exact deadline
00:50:37.560 on it. Or here's exactly when we'll do what we're going to do. Or here's how long it's going to take
00:50:41.640 us. And then if you meet that, maybe you meet it. But if you don't, you fail. And if you're far
00:50:46.440 beyond, we know exactly what we're shaping and why. We're sending those signals working across
00:50:50.780 the interagency. The straight-of-horned moves is something we've paid attention to from the
00:50:53.860 beginning. And the American people can rest assured, we will ensure that our interests are
00:50:58.600 advanced, no doubt. Reagan, I'm going to ask you, I know you've got to bounce, but I'm going to ask
00:51:04.880 you to just hold through this next break, too, because it's about a minute away. But in covering
00:51:07.940 it, Pete comes out and says, hey, we're concentrating this and doing it. And then,
00:51:11.840 you know afterwards they announced an amphibious ready group is heading towards uh the middle east
00:51:17.640 probably for some sort of potential combat operations with these fleet marines you have
00:51:21.720 a massive bombing of karg island last night and the israelis announced that they're planning on
00:51:26.380 the biggest uh ground invasion of lebanon since the conflict back in 2006 we got a minute here
00:51:33.660 we'll hold you to the break how do you balance that i don't know if you can and also i think
00:51:39.200 contradicts what the president is saying. The president keeps saying that the war is about to
00:51:43.000 wrap up, that the United States is winning. And one thing I've noticed in all of these Pentagon
00:51:48.360 briefings is that each day, and the president has put these out on Truth Social too, they've said
00:51:54.120 that the war, that they're going to launch the biggest attack that has yet to come in this war
00:51:59.380 on Iran. And that has perplexed me because if we're so close to ending the war, if we've almost
00:52:07.980 reached all of our objectives why is every day an escalation and seems to be getting larger and
00:52:14.620 larger and so uh i don't know how you balance those two things i don't think they they go
00:52:20.620 together i think they contradict hang on for one second i'll hold you through a quick break
00:52:27.180 the second hour is about to start we are absolutely packed you think you got a problem you think the
00:52:33.900 Women of Persia got a problem with the Islamic Republic in Tehran.
00:52:37.880 Well, guess what?
00:52:39.280 I think there's a couple of three big problems in the state of Texas.
00:52:43.900 Julie Pickering is going to be here.
00:52:45.380 We get Jenny Beth Martin.
00:52:46.660 We are going to talk about the Save America Act.
00:52:48.980 As Reagan Reese asked that question, we're going to ask it of the Tea Party leader, Jenny Beth Martin, next in the war room.
00:52:58.260 Do you owe back taxes or you haven't filed your taxes in years?
00:53:03.040 now is the time to resolve your tax matters.
00:53:06.220 With the national conversation around abolishing the income tax,
00:53:11.020 the IRS is fighting back and proving it's here to stay
00:53:14.120 by becoming more aggressive than ever before.
00:53:17.400 They're sending out more collection notices,
00:53:20.080 filing more tax liens, and collecting billions more in recent years.
00:53:25.000 If you owe, the IRS can garnish your wages,
00:53:29.060 levy your bank accounts,
00:53:30.340 seize your retirement and even your home if you owe or haven't filed it's not a question of if
00:53:37.380 the irs will act it's a question of when it will act right now tax network usa is offering a
