00:00:00.000Vice President JD Vance is undeniably a talented politician.
00:00:03.000Yesterday, he went on The View to pitch his new book, and he showed why it's always pretty funny when a dude with a 130 plus IQ has conversations publicly with people who barely crack triple digits.
00:00:14.000But we'll also get to the rest of Vice President Vance's day, defending an Iran deal that looks increasingly not great, appearing with Megyn Kelly to make overtures to Tucker Carlson, and prepping for a photo op on Friday with, you know, a mass murderer from Iran.
00:03:30.000The reality is they've shifted around some of the displays, but it's not as though they are taking black heroes out of museums or anything like that.
00:03:37.000And that is why when he asks her a simple question, like, what are you talking about?
00:04:28.000And again, you know, your argument is fundamentally whoopee.
00:04:31.000You're saying that we don't strike the right balance.
00:04:33.000I disagree with you about how we apply that, but nobody, hopefully, is saying we're not allowed to have a border.
00:04:39.000What I'm saying is that in order for us to actually enforce the law, you can't set a standard that says you're not allowed to deport anyone unless they've committed a violent crime.
00:04:49.000You've got to enforce the law equally.
00:04:52.000Again, this is where Vance did his best when he is explaining in moderate and calm fashion.
00:04:59.000I mean, he did this with Tim Walz, and again, he's doing it there with Whoopi Goldberg.
00:05:02.000And he is calling her on the fact that essentially she's arguing for zero borders at all.
00:05:06.000And then he went on the offensive with the ladies of the view, and he went after Joe Biden's open border policies.
00:05:14.000The majority of people that ICE is rounding up and taking out of their homes from their families, they're separating families, they're using children as bait.
00:05:31.000Do we know that during the last administration, we had tens of thousands of children who were sex trafficked by the cartels, who were brought into our country in profoundly dangerous and predatory conditions?
00:06:18.000There is no evidence that Maduro was releasing people from insane asylums or jails like Fidel Castro did do.
00:06:25.000This was made up, and we just can't accept it without pushing back.
00:06:29.000But Anna, we know that there were people who were released from prisons who were encouraged to come into the United States.
00:06:33.000Mr. Vice President, it wasn't where it was like a purposeful release, open up the jails, open up the insane asylums, and let people flood Florida.
00:06:42.000If you go, it may not have been like Marielle, but if you go back to the caravans that were happening in 22, 23, we know that those things were funded.
00:06:50.000They were in some ways supported by the government.
00:06:52.000So I don't know how you define support or not support, but if people are encouraged to come into our country after having spent time in prison by their own governments, I think that's a problem.
00:07:04.000Now, the ladies of the view thought they had vans.
00:07:07.000By quoting old things that he had said about President Trump way back when, 2015, 2016.
00:07:12.000And Vance made the obvious point that you can change your mind when you realize you're wrong.
00:07:17.000It's been well covered that I was a critic of Donald Trump back in 2015 and 2016.
00:07:21.000Now, obviously, I'm sitting here as the Vice President of the United States in the Trump administration.
00:07:26.000Well, Joy, a little humility, actually.
00:07:29.000I think that when you make predictions and those predictions turn out to be false, you got to ask yourself, well, what made me wrong about that?
00:07:35.000What did I not understand or not appreciate?
00:07:38.000For example, I said that Donald Trump's economic policies would not lead to wage growth.
00:07:45.000That was actually a major, major thing.
00:07:47.000I said that we couldn't bring back any of those factory jobs because I kind of had given in to this idea that those jobs were disappearing.
00:07:53.000But actually, Donald Trump, you saw a manufacturing boom during that administration.
00:07:58.000So there's a certain point where you say, you know, I made predictions about this.
00:09:14.000Now, I have video of my father as a child with his dad when my grandfather was young.
00:09:19.000My father cherishes these kinds of memories.
00:09:22.000This Father's Day, give your family something that actually lasts.
00:09:25.000Join over 1.5 million families who have trusted Legacy Box with their memories and don't wait because the longer you do, the more you risk losing.
00:09:41.000We all know what it's like, especially I know what that's like.
00:09:44.000Honestly, the fix turned out to be pretty simple.
00:09:46.000I was sleeping on the wrong mattress for years, and now I sleep on a Helix Sleep mattress.
00:09:51.000I just got to tell you a Helix Sleep mattress means that you're going to sleep more soundly, you're going to stay asleep for longer, you don't wake up with the back pain.
00:11:12.000We could judge the comments that were being made about the deal.
00:11:16.000We could talk about the media reports.
00:11:17.000But on June 12, the vice president said, You can't, you're not allowed.
00:11:21.000You should stop paying attention to quote unquote unconfirmed media reports or to the things the Iranians are saying on their social media posts.
00:11:29.000Apparently, we should believe what IRGC is pledging to the United States.
00:11:33.000In terms of nuclear development or opening the straight, but we shouldn't believe what they say in social media, but fine.
00:11:40.000So the vice president was making the case that until we see the text, we shouldn't judge.
00:11:44.000Well, now the text is pretty obviously out.
00:11:47.000JD Vance said that they'd not yet released the text because of diplomatic sensitivities in the Muslim world.
00:11:52.000Well, that's weird because you know who actually has released the text Al Arabiya, which is a Saudi outlet, Murs, which is an Iranian outlet.
00:12:00.000It seems like the administration is the party that is very, very reluctant to release the text.
00:12:05.000So here he was literally yesterday saying that the reason that the text hasn't been released yet, he doesn't really know.
00:12:15.000The reason why we haven't released it yet is there are some delicate diplomatic things going on where the Iranians, and not just the Iranians, but some of our mediators, the Pakistanis and the Qataris, have asked us to sequence this in the right way.
00:12:28.000I don't, frankly, fully understand it, but there are sensitivities that exist in the Arab and Muslim world that we're trying to be responsive to.
00:12:36.000Fundamentally, does it really matter if the deal comes out on Wednesday versus Friday?
00:12:49.000Yes, it actually does matter quite an awful lot because there is a public photo op scheduled between the vice president of the United States and a mass murdering terror leader named Mohammed Khalibaf on Friday in Switzerland.
00:12:59.000So, JD Vance appears on Megyn Kelly's podcast.
00:13:01.000Remember, as we'll get to, Megyn Kelly is a person who has said that the Israelis manipulated the administration into war, who has laughed along to the proposition that the Republican Party is a bunch of Israel loving pedophiles.
00:13:13.000This is where the vice president chose to retail the argument.
00:13:16.000So, the vice president says that actually the only reason that people would oppose the deal is because they want endless conflict.
00:13:29.000I think that fundamentally, if you look at what they're proposing, they're proposing an endless conflict.
00:13:36.000They want this to go on until every bomb has been dropped or until every Iranian is dead.
00:13:42.000That is not what the president of the United States wants.
00:13:44.000What he said is I set about this to end their nuclear program, to eliminate their ability to threaten their neighbors and project power, and to fundamentally.
00:13:54.000Make sure that no future child would have to deal with a terrorist regime with an atomic bomb.
00:14:00.000That's why the president set out to do this.
00:14:03.000He feels, and he's right, that he's accomplished that goal, and now we can get to the negotiation to see what are the other benefits that we can get from this, and frankly, what are the benefits the Iranians could get from this if they behave.
00:14:14.000I just don't think that people who are criticizing this, one, they're not actually dealing with the reality of what's in it, and number two, they don't have an alternative.
00:14:24.000If your alternative is just to drop bombs without any clear goal, Or any clear American interest implicated, then you're not making the wise decisions on behalf of the American people.
00:14:37.000Well, an entire field of straw man is now burning because this is what we colloquially call a lie.
00:14:46.000An endless conflict would be, say, a 47 year conflict with an intransigent, radical Islamist enemy that wants to destroy America.
00:14:54.000Some of us have been calling for the president to end this war quickly, like from the beginning.
00:14:59.000I've been saying for literally months that instead of signing on to a useless ceasefire, we ought to take or bomb Kharga Island, open the straits with operations like Project Freedom, which the president announced and then unannounced, and then leave Overwatch to our allies like Israel and the UAE.
00:15:30.000Hundreds of billions of dollars in unfrozen funds into a terror supporting and nuclear weapons seeking sworn enemy of the United States in an attempt to get them to open up a strait that was open before the war started.
00:15:43.000If that's the deal, and we'll get to whether that's the deal in a second, that would guarantee chaos and war for at least a generation.
00:15:50.000And again, the vice president is now burning straw men.
00:15:52.000He is making the identical case to the case that Barack Obama made in 2015, which is either buy my crap deal or you want endless war.
00:16:01.000It was a lie then, it is a lie now, it is not true.
00:16:04.000And if you're relegated to lying about your opposition in order to sell a bad deal, that means the deal is even worse than what you are pitching.
00:16:11.000So, in the end, the only good argument that the American people should accept is that this is a good deal.
00:16:18.000So, the vice president, again, the architect of these negotiations and the front man and the point man for them, is making the case that actually the deal is awesome and we got what we came for.
00:16:27.000I think this is what is fundamentally different from Trump's foreign policy compared to.
00:16:34.000You know, Barack Obama's or George W. Bush's is we will empower people on the ground who yearn to breathe free, but we're not going to force them to do what, you know, we're not going to force them to elect their own government.
00:16:48.000What we're going to do is pursue our best interests.
00:16:50.000And what did the United States want out of this?
00:16:52.000We wanted an Iran that didn't have a nuclear weapon.
00:16:55.000We wanted an Iran that had a conventional military that was not able to threaten its allies in the region.
00:17:50.000And if there are differences from the text that has been released, perhaps they should explain what those differences are.
00:17:55.000Because again, I'm not going to buy the idea that the Iranian government doesn't want the text released because they are afraid of what their own population is going to do.
00:18:04.000But somehow you have no obligation to the American people to release the text on a deal that supposedly ends a war and creates a ground shifting new model in the Middle East.
