00:00:00.000Hello, everybody. I'm John Fawcett with this Great America Show midday update for Wednesday, June 17th.
00:00:04.760Happy Wednesday, folks. President Trump is over at the G7 in Evian, France.
00:00:09.920And boy, is he having a good time speaking this morning to the packed house of folks,
00:00:16.620reiterating that this peace deal that he had signed with Iran,
00:00:21.120which I think we're expecting the ceremonial signing either Thursday or Friday,
00:00:27.100is the start of a new beginning for the Middle East.
00:00:29.600Let's take a listen. As I expressed to the world leaders here this week, it's my hope that the peace agreement will be the beginning of a much larger deal all across the Middle East.
00:00:41.400We're very close. Look at the job we've done in Gaza. Look at Hamas. Hamas has been very silent.
00:00:47.440You haven't read anything about Hamas. We're trying to get them unarmed.
00:00:59.600machine gun in their hands. That's not the easiest thing. But they've they've actually behaved pretty
00:01:05.320well, considering this was not the lifestyle that they were taught to have, but including an end to0.56
00:01:11.020all Iranian aggression. They're not going to be Iranian aggression and an end to war and terror in
00:01:18.480Lebanon. So the Lebanon piece is something we'll have to work on a little bit. It's a very small
00:01:24.400piece of the puzzle actually but it still makes a lot of noise the big deal is the iran deal that's0.97
00:01:31.260where the money is where the power was but they have hezbollah and you got to get that done one
00:01:38.300way or the other would do it i think israel can do a much better job on it uh syria would love to do
00:01:45.300it and now contrary to what the marxist run left mainstream media wants to tell you that president
00:01:50.540Trump is turning over pallets of cash, which of course couldn't be further than the truth.0.62
00:01:54.620That's what Barack Hussein Obama did. You remember he sent over pallets of cash while they
00:01:58.520continued to build and have their nuclear program. President Trump says any money they get is going
00:02:04.360to be merit based. He also says the technical discussions and the removal of stockpiles
00:02:09.540enriched materials is going to begin immediately. Take a listen. They'll work closely with us to
00:02:15.560turn over the so-called enriched material that's
00:02:19.360very deep in the bowels of the earth, very deep.
00:02:23.620Nobody can get it. So it's not important that we do it quickly, but we could
00:02:27.420do it fairly quickly. When we have a chance, we'll do it. But in the meantime, we have cameras on every
00:02:31.500inch of it. Nobody can do it. And if they do, we'll hit them with patriots. That's all.
00:02:36.240And they'll be gone. And they know that.
00:02:39.400Technical discussions on the removal of all stockpiles of enriched materials
00:02:43.340will begin immediately we're going to start that immediately and unlike barack hussein obama who
00:02:50.180sent iran pallets of cash and any relief they receive under this deal they'll have to get based
00:02:56.760on merit and it won't be from us we don't have to give them anything so there you have it folks
00:03:00.920right from the man's mouth uh himself um not what the marxist run media wants to tell you not what
00:03:08.140the Marxist-run Democrats want to make you believe.
00:03:14.220President Trump checkmated the Marxist Dems and Rhinos earlier this morning
00:03:18.200after that G7 summit, announcing that the Senate hearing on Jay Clayton0.90
00:03:22.460to serve as the Director of National Intelligence will be canceled,
00:03:26.280and the Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte
00:03:29.060will remain in place to serve as Acting Director.
00:03:32.040Now, this all comes amid the ongoing debate over the FISA 702,
00:03:35.400which the intelligence community uses for warrantless surveillance as national security threats
00:03:40.580as well as on innocent Americans as we find out over the course of the last few years.
00:03:46.380Quote, the Republicans agreed with the Democrats to remove the very failed and talented William Pulte
00:03:50.860for serving as acting DNI in return for getting FISA approved by the Democrats.
00:03:55.780However, the Republicans moved so fast at the hearings of the great Jay Clayton,
00:03:59.940current U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York,
00:04:02.340that Pulte would be gone before the Democrats would vote on FISA.
00:04:05.400Now the Democrats are saying they will vote against FISA.
00:04:09.380So the Republicans wound up having fulfilled their commitment, but the Democrats broke the deal.0.96
00:04:14.620Trump further slamming the Republicans and the dumb ones for their ridiculous views on the blue slip process for U.S. attorney nominees,0.83
00:04:22.180noting that U.S. attorney nominee Jamie McDonald would be confirmed before Jay Clayton can be removed as U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York and sworn in as DNI.0.98
00:04:31.520You know, it's nice to see that President Trump is getting involved in this process.
00:04:35.080We've never seen presidents before get involved because he understands what's going on.
00:04:39.760He understands the process where I think there's very few presidents before understand it or care to understand it.
00:04:46.280Whereas President Trump is not going to take the BS.
