I've been on the phones all day. We're not in Florida, obviously, but I've been on the phones
00:00:03.800
all day, whether it's with Iranians, those who are in the higher-ups in the Iranian community,
00:00:10.480
whether it's the top journalist who has tens of millions of people that watch him every day in
00:00:16.400
Iran. He is the guy in Iran that everybody watches to see what the conditions are there,
00:00:21.440
or it's people that are involved here politically. I've been speaking to a lot of different people
00:00:25.320
last 24, 48 hours to see what's going to be happening with a lot of questions that maybe
00:00:29.300
many of you guys may be asking, but I'll pause. Brandon, I'll go to you. What are you thinking
00:00:34.420
with all these things? Because you've had certain positions, and you've been able to say as a guy
00:00:38.560
that you got your bachelor's degree in national security, you got your master's in national
00:00:42.760
security. This is all you study. This is all you look at. You read every book, everything on there.
00:00:47.920
What's your thoughts on this? Yeah, so we literally couldn't be any more involved in the thing than we
00:00:53.040
are right now. For anybody who was saying like, oh, will the U.S. get involved? Will we not get involved?
00:00:56.360
We're 100% involved right now. And to do what they wanted to do, we needed U.S. involvement
00:01:01.340
because, I mean, I don't know how much you guys know about these B-52 bombers, these planes
00:01:06.060
specifically, but they're insane. So these things cost like $2 billion to build them. They're the
00:01:10.380
most expensive plane in the world, and they're the only ones that could carry these bunker buster
00:01:15.400
bombs. So these things weigh like 30,000 pounds, and these are the only planes in the world that could
00:01:19.700
carry them. So there's only 30 of these bombs that exist in the world, and then there's only 20 of
00:01:24.100
these planes that exist in the world. So today it started leaking out that these planes were moving
00:01:28.480
from Missouri, from an Air Force base in Missouri to Guam. And then in that span of time, they went
00:01:33.120
from Guam to Iran. Three to six of those planes dropped about two bombs on each of these nuclear
00:01:40.960
bases in Iran. So you needed two of them because these bombs only penetrated 60 meters down into the
00:01:47.840
ground, and the average nuclear site was like 80 to 90 meters in the ground. So it was unclear if
00:01:53.280
they were going to be able to do it, but it seems like they hit it first.
00:01:55.880
Brandon, but this is the question. This is the question, because we talked about this,
00:01:58.400
me and you. Did they fully penetrate all the way down 90 meters that they needed to do,
00:02:03.240
or did they just penetrate 60 meters? Do we have that report yet? Have that been released to us
00:02:08.660
No, I don't see that being confirmed anywhere. Trump said successful mission, but I don't see
00:02:14.020
it being reported anywhere that it's definitely a success that they definitely took it out. But
00:02:17.940
it's believed that they hit each of them twice. And that's why there are three to six planes in it,
00:02:23.360
because each plane could carry up to two of these bombs. And then, so if there were three to six
00:02:26.960
planes, three sites hit, then, you know, two bombs could have hit each site. So two bombs would be
00:02:31.400
enough. One bomb, probably not. But I think it's like, you know, Trump's, a lot of people say that
00:02:36.820
Trump modeled the art of the deal after the art of war. And the quote from the art of war says,
00:02:42.720
let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night. And when you move, fall like a thunderbolt. So
00:02:46.720
that's one thing that I do like about Trump when he does warfare. He, like his plans are smooth and
00:02:51.140
fast and you don't see them coming. So if we're going to be in war, then I'd like it to happen
00:02:55.200
that way rather than a long drawn out Iraq, Iraq type of way. Yeah. I mean, as you're looking at
00:03:01.180
this here, there is one Rob with the lady. This was not the one, it's another one that's from
00:03:06.240
Esfahan that I sent you earlier. I don't know if you have it or not. If you don't have it,
00:03:09.980
it's in our notes. I know this is last minute, so I don't expect you to have it
00:03:13.580
right off the bat. You know, the team was so instrumental of getting some of this stuff
00:03:17.740
to be done. And by the way, there's riots right now going on in New York. Did you see that right
00:03:24.520
there, Rob? I don't know if you've seen that one. You know, and if you can do me a favor
00:03:29.340
and show this, people are taking advantage of this situation. Please verify this before you show it.
00:03:35.760
But to me, if you notice what Trump said in his speech, something you don't hear often
00:03:41.500
for him to say, you could tell as a leader, you know what I felt?
00:03:53.300
You could tell he's grappling with this decision. You could tell because if you go watch the two
00:04:00.400
minute speech he just gave that we reacted to, watch the last 30 seconds. Rob, if you can go
00:04:06.760
back, I don't know if that's out there for us to just watch the last 30 seconds. Look how he finishes
00:04:11.380
the last 30 seconds and what he says. It's not the typical way Trump finishes talks. Look who he
00:04:17.500
thanked. Why did he say that? Go to the last 30 seconds. Go back a little bit more and go back.
00:04:23.060
Okay, play from right there if you could. Watch this. In a matter of minutes, there's no military
00:04:29.040
in the world that could have done what we did tonight. Watch his body language. There has never
00:04:33.640
been a military that could do what took place just a little while ago. Tomorrow, General Cain,
00:04:40.380
Secretary of Defense, will have a press conference at 8 a.m. at the Pentagon. And I want to just thank
00:04:48.040
everybody and in particular, God, I want to just say we love you, God. Go back five seconds, Rob.
00:04:57.020
I've never heard his voice crack like that. Listen, everybody listen. Don't move and just listen. Go
00:05:03.300
ahead, Rob. We'll have a press conference at 8 a.m. at the Pentagon. And I want to just thank
00:05:09.200
everybody and in particular, God, I want to just say we love you, God, and we love our great military.
00:05:17.360
Protect them. God bless the Middle East. God bless Israel. And God bless America. Thank you very much.
00:05:25.760
That's exactly how a leader needs to react when you make a decision like this.
00:05:29.520
You know why? Let me tell you why when you make a decision like that, you're grappling with it.
00:05:35.880
You know you don't have 100% support. You know this could potentially break the party that you want.
00:05:41.280
You know this is going to be complicated. You don't know for a fact if this is going to work out or not.
00:05:45.620
Nobody does. This could be a big risk. Vinny, I'm going to come to you in a second.
00:05:50.340
This could be a big risk. However, his voice is cracking. How often does the president ask for God's
00:05:57.160
help at the end? Not often. Why? Because the moment you go to God is because the only thing you have
00:06:04.960
left is what? Faith at this point. You're sitting there saying, I think we make the right decision,
00:06:10.780
God. I think we did the right thing. We need you from here on. We've never heard the president talk
00:06:18.240
like this. And that's exactly whether you're happy with him or not, whether you're part of the camp
00:06:22.060
that wants him to be impeached and on X and all this stuff, whether you're part of the camp that's
00:06:26.240
like, I'm never Trump because I didn't vote for war. Whoever you are, I don't care whether you can't
00:06:32.140
stand this guy. Your name is Keith Olbermann. I don't care who you are. That's exactly how a president
00:06:37.180
needs to react when they're going through a decision like this. And you know he's having
00:06:43.480
the talks. He knows the criticism is coming. There's a reason why he only won two or three
00:06:47.680
minutes. He doesn't want to take any questions. Can you imagine how much sleep they've been getting?
00:06:52.180
I'm willing to bet the last four nights. These guys haven't slept. None of those guys have slept
00:06:56.480
the last four nights. It's been nonstop. Hey, what are we doing? What are we doing? What are we doing?
00:07:00.320
What are we doing? Keeping it low. So, Vinny, your thoughts on this. What are you thinking with this?
00:07:03.820
Um, well, I mean, yeah, that was a very, very interesting. I've never, I've never heard like
00:07:10.740
once in a while I've heard Trump bring up God, but that moment that pause, you know, God bless the
00:07:15.960
Middle East, God bless Israel. And then God bless America. Um, when he tweeted the, his tweet, he said,
00:07:22.320
we have completed our successful attack. The moment I saw we Pat, I was like, Hmm, we America,
00:07:28.800
let me look it up. According to the international law, specifically the UN charter using
00:07:33.740
military force against another sovereign state, especially preemptively constitutes an act of
00:07:38.860
aggression, which is a legal basis for war that we, everybody means we are at war. Okay. And I,
00:07:46.300
me and Pat, Pat, we spoke about this before and you were like, you know, what's, what's on your mind?
00:07:49.620
What are you thinking of? I'm, I'm not one of those people guys. I voted for Trump. I've been,
00:07:54.120
I've been with Trump since 2016 when it wasn't cool, when it wasn't the dancing, when it was just,
00:07:59.300
I knew he loved America. I knew the mission. I knew what he wanted to do with all the Hillary
00:08:04.080
claim with everything. Then he got, then he was in, we had Russia collusion, no new wars,
00:08:09.140
Biden and them came in, by the way, gave Iran and unfroze $6 billion. So if anybody wants to know
00:08:15.560
why we're in the situation that we're in besides Israel, besides everything, the last administration,
00:08:20.680
not only open the border, which I'm going to get into right now, they, they unleashed $6 billion
00:08:25.780
to freaking Iran, a country that says death to America. Okay. And the one thing, the only thing
00:08:31.760
I fear right now, Pat, the one thing that really hit me and I got like a real, like nauseous feeling
00:08:37.520
is those 20 million people that are in here that are in this country right now. Um, which one of
00:08:45.380
them is going to do something and, and blow something up with Tom Holman said, uh, Pat, about
00:08:50.360
doing something horrible. That's going to be worse than nine 11 when it happens. And when it happens,
00:08:56.400
who is going to be behind it? Cause I guarantee you to what made me say, let's go and bomb the
00:09:02.200
shit out of Iraq. Even though it was a lie was nine 11 that made us go, you know what? Let's go and
00:09:06.860
kill everybody. Okay. So now that's 60 40 split Pat. Mind you, I still support Trump no matter
00:09:12.980
what. I'm not happy. You know, everybody's always like, Oh, you guys are your jumping ship. No,
00:09:17.680
no. I can be disappointed in a decision because as a veteran, I don't want war, but list this
00:09:23.680
situation, this situation, if something does freaking happen, who is it going to be? Who's
00:09:28.540
going to be behind it? And who are they going to blame? Because the only way to get that 40%
00:09:33.320
to join that 60 is something bad happens here. And they point Iran, Iran, Iran, Iran. Then that 40%
00:09:40.400
is going to join the 60%. And then it's all over another, another Iraq, another Afghanistan.
00:09:46.200
Yeah. So look, a very valid concern of what you have here in regards to what could happen
00:09:52.660
with this in the States. And I see that USA hat fires me up. I know this is a phase of fear,
00:10:01.440
porn, scared. I don't know what to do. All this other stuff. This is when leaders rise up. This
00:10:07.080
is when leaders rise up and believe the future looks bright. It's okay for us to believe,
00:10:10.860
be a little bit paranoid. It's okay for us to be a little bit concerned. We ought to be. It's okay
00:10:15.160
for us to be worried about our kids, our safety, our family, all of that stuff. That's what leaders
00:10:19.160
do. It's our job. The burden comes with it. But no matter how much burden you got, you just saw that
00:10:25.020
man right there, what he did. This is why we love the future looks bright brand. Rob, can you go to
00:10:31.600
vtmerch.com, show those hats right there, USA? I love when I see these future looks bright USA hats.
00:10:37.720
Go to vtmerch.com, folks. This is the time to represent this. We want to have a million people
00:10:44.120

00:10:48.340
We want more people to support this when they're out there, to say, I'm proud. I am proud to be
00:10:53.660
American. I am proud. I am proud to be able to represent that. If that's you, go to vtmerch.com.
