00:00:06.580The U.S. and Iran have reportedly reached an agreement on a 60-day ceasefire extension,
00:00:11.520of course, pending President Trump's approval.
00:00:13.840As the world watches on, worrying as new clashes between the U.S. and Iran threaten to shatter a failed truce in place,
00:00:20.260hopeful report out today suggests that progress is being made in the negotiations.
00:00:26.660Axios first reporting that the U.S. and Iran negotiators have reached an agreement on a 60-day memorandum of understanding that would extend the current ceasefire and launch negotiations on Iran's nuclear program.
00:00:38.820The deal reportedly needs President Trump's final approval, according to these sources.
00:00:42.880The signing of the MOU would be the most significant diplomatic breakthrough since the war started, but a final agreement that tackles President Trump's nuclear demands would still require further intensive negotiations.
00:00:54.500that is yet to be seen the terms of the deal are mostly agreed upon but still need approval from
00:00:59.900senior leadership on both sides and as i said of course the final determination lands on president
00:01:05.280trump and just how much he wants to tolerate uh after what we saw last night with iran launching
00:01:10.640missiles at kuwait so iran hasn't kept up on their side of the ceasefire so it's uh it's going to be
00:01:17.380a dicey situation just on how much president trump wants to put up with treasury secretary
00:01:22.500Scott Bessett, he was the White House press secretary this afternoon, telling reporters
00:01:27.000that the Treasury Department is in fact making preparations to begin printing $250 bills
00:01:32.840with President Trump's face on them, of course pending approval from Congress. Now this comes
00:01:38.360after the Washington Post claimed the Trump administration is pressuring officials at the
00:01:43.500Treasury Bureau of engraving and printing a design of a $250 bill featuring President Trump's
00:01:49.680portrait. Now, legislation for this that would allow President Trump to appear on a $250 bill
00:01:54.560was introduced in Congress last year to commemorate the nation's 250th anniversary,
00:01:59.400but had never been languished. Still, the Washington Post asserts that U.S. Treasury
00:02:03.780Brandon Beach and advisor Mike Brown are behind the push to put Trump's face on the bill.
00:02:09.180I think it would be rather fun, rather interesting. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessett responded on
00:02:14.840there as they confirming that it is in the works but it is pending congressional approval and boy
00:02:21.260are the Marxist Dems having a total meltdown. Take a listen to Secretary Besant this afternoon.
00:02:26.380When people are struggling to afford gas. You know I don't really understand this Washington
00:02:31.020Post article that who hears from the Post? Yeah terribly written terribly edited because basically
00:02:37.240what it says is that Treasury is following the law and that we've created the bill and that it's
00:02:44.480up to congress but that we follow the bill and it's up to i didn't really understand what the
00:02:48.300story was anyway aren't involved in that two of your political appointees yeah of course but we
00:02:54.300we prepare for everything if it gets passed just like we we were ready six months in advance for
00:02:59.860the one big beautiful bill for tax guidance that so we have to prepare in advance you you can't
00:03:05.700draw something up the day before politically do you think it's a good idea though when people are
00:03:09.300struggling to afford gas and groceries look I think it has I think that it's
00:03:14.100bifurcated that do you think we should have a 250th anniversary the celebration
00:03:20.460but it's not happening anyway it's happening because it's being funded via
00:03:29.260by private citizens by the federal government by state governments by
00:03:32.480municipal governments to celebrate our country and I don't think that there's
00:03:37.620anything untoward about having the president of the United States, the person who was president
00:03:42.080of the United States on the 250th anniversary bill. As I said, it's got the Marxist Dems once0.52
00:03:47.920again in a tail spiral as they cannot contain their anger and their hatred for President Trump.
00:03:54.660I say do it just for the fun of it. A former CIA official with top security clearance has been
00:04:00.280arrested after federal agents raided his Virginia home, seizing nearly 300 gold bars worth more than
00:04:05.980$40 million, along with approximately $2 million in cash and 35 luxury watches, mostly Rolexes.
00:04:13.180The officer, identified as David Rush, who held management positions at the agency,
00:04:17.400now faces charges of criminal theft of public money. Rush allegedly used his position to request
00:04:22.720large amounts of gold and foreign currency, claiming they were for work-related expenses,
00:04:27.780only to allegedly divert and stash them at his Fairfax County residence.
00:04:32.780On May 18th, federal agents searched the home and walked out with massive gold hoards.
00:04:37.160Investigators had early found only a portion of the funds in a storage space near his office.
00:04:42.160Rush had requested the assets between November and March, according to the FBI affidavit.
00:04:47.320CIA's own internal audit couldn't account for the gold, a significant foreign currency,
00:04:52.440promoting CIA Director John Ratcliffe to refer the matter to the FBI for criminal investigation.
00:04:58.560Maybe this fellow was good friends with Senator Bob Menendez,
00:05:01.500or maybe he took a class trip to Fort Knox.
