WEBVTT 00:00.039 --> 00:03.869 From 1789 until 1947 our nation won 00:03.869 --> 00:06.091 some of its greatest military victories 00:06.679 --> 00:08.790 under the direction of a Secretary of 00:08.790 --> 00:11.199 War operating within a department of 00:11.199 --> 00:13.520 war . Today with this executive order , 00:13.560 --> 00:15.640 you will authorize the current 00:15.640 --> 00:17.696 Secretary of Defense and the current 00:17.696 --> 00:19.696 Department of Defense to once again 00:19.696 --> 00:22.129 once again embrace this great lineage 00:22.129 --> 00:24.280 and once again be named the Secretary 00:24.280 --> 00:26.224 of War and the Department of War . 00:28.090 --> 00:30.329 So this is something we thought long 00:30.329 --> 00:32.329 and hard about . We've been talking 00:32.329 --> 00:34.385 about it for months . Pete and I and 00:34.819 --> 00:37.450 Dan , Dan came into the fall , by the 00:37.450 --> 00:39.959 way , a great general . He headed up 00:39.959 --> 00:42.700 the I wouldn't call it an attack . I'd 00:42.700 --> 00:45.259 almost almost call that one , maybe 00:45.259 --> 00:47.426 even more than an attack . What he did 00:47.426 --> 00:49.592 with , uh , Iran , you saw the success 00:49.592 --> 00:52.009 of that operation was perfect . In fact , 00:52.060 --> 00:54.900 we have this was sent to me by the 00:54.900 --> 00:56.567 great company that makes that 00:56.567 --> 00:58.979 particular B-2 bomber , and it was 00:58.979 --> 01:01.090 flawless . It was actually flawless . 01:01.090 --> 01:03.312 They flew for 37 hours back and forth , 01:03.520 --> 01:06.180 and it wasn't a bolt that was out of 01:06.180 --> 01:08.124 condition . There wasn't an engine 01:08.124 --> 01:10.347 failure . There was no problem . It was 01:10.347 --> 01:13.139 a perfect attack and it knocked out any 01:13.470 --> 01:16.900 possible nuclear capability for Iran , 01:16.949 --> 01:19.029 which nobody wanted to see and we 01:19.029 --> 01:22.269 weren't going to put up with . So great 01:22.269 --> 01:24.213 job , Dan , and we've been talking 01:24.213 --> 01:26.269 about this Department of War . So we 01:26.269 --> 01:28.325 won the First World War , we won the 01:28.325 --> 01:31.029 Second World War , we won everything 01:31.029 --> 01:33.140 before that and in between , and then 01:33.140 --> 01:35.196 we decided to go woke and we changed 01:35.196 --> 01:37.362 the name to Department of Defense , so 01:37.362 --> 01:39.529 we're going to Department of War . And 01:39.529 --> 01:42.510 uh I'd like to ask our Secretary of War 01:43.400 --> 01:45.720 to say a few words . Pete Hanks said I 01:45.720 --> 01:48.053 think it's a much more appropriate name , 01:48.053 --> 01:50.220 especially in light of where the world 01:50.220 --> 01:52.319 is right now . We have the strongest 01:52.319 --> 01:54.319 military in the world . We have the 01:54.319 --> 01:56.375 greatest equipment in the world . We 01:56.375 --> 01:58.319 have the greatest manufacturers of 01:58.319 --> 02:00.375 equipment by far . There's nobody to 02:00.375 --> 02:02.597 even compete and you see that with this 02:02.597 --> 02:04.620 and so many other things . Uh , the 02:04.620 --> 02:06.731 patriots are the best . Every element 02:06.731 --> 02:08.842 of the military , we make the best by 02:08.842 --> 02:10.953 far . Uh , so Peter , I'd like to ask 02:10.953 --> 02:13.770 you and maybe Dan , Dan Raisinga to say 02:13.770 --> 02:15.992 a few words , please , Mr . President , 02:15.992 --> 02:18.300 thank you . Uh , after winning a war 02:18.300 --> 02:21.740 for independence in 1789 , George 02:21.740 --> 02:23.970 Washington . Established the War 02:23.970 --> 02:26.360 Department and Henry Knox was his first 02:26.649 --> 02:29.720 Secretary of War and this country won 02:29.720 --> 02:31.831 every major war after that to include 02:31.831 --> 02:33.831 World War 1 and World War 2 , total 02:33.831 --> 02:36.109 victory , Mr . President , as you said . 02:36.109 --> 02:38.869 Then 150 years after that . We changed 02:38.869 --> 02:41.110 the name after World War II from the 02:41.110 --> 02:43.277 Department of War to the Department of 02:43.277 --> 02:45.509 Defense in 1947 , and as you pointed 02:45.509 --> 02:47.731 out , Mr . President , we haven't won a 02:47.731 --> 02:49.731 major war since , and that's not to 02:49.731 --> 02:51.787 disparage our war fighters , whether 02:51.787 --> 02:54.009 it's the Korean War , the Vietnam War , 02:54.009 --> 02:55.676 or our generation of Iraq and 02:55.676 --> 02:57.842 Afghanistan . That's to recognize that 02:57.842 --> 02:59.787 this name change is not just about 02:59.787 --> 03:03.440 renaming , it's about restoring . Words 03:03.440 --> 03:05.440 matter . It's restoring , as you've 03:05.440 --> 03:07.218 guided us to , Mr . President , 03:07.218 --> 03:09.710 restoring the warrior ethos , restoring 03:09.710 --> 03:12.630 victory and clarity as an end state , 03:13.039 --> 03:16.119 restoring intentionality to the use of 03:16.119 --> 03:18.789 force . So at your direction , Mr . 03:18.800 --> 03:21.022 President , the War Department is going 03:21.022 --> 03:22.911 to fight decisively , not endless 03:22.911 --> 03:25.220 conflicts . It's going to fight to win , 03:25.360 --> 03:27.839 not not to lose . We're going to go on 03:27.839 --> 03:30.960 offense , not just on defense , maximum 03:30.960 --> 03:34.570 lethality . Not tepid legality , 03:34.919 --> 03:37.520 violent effect , not politically 03:37.520 --> 03:39.409 correct . We're going to raise up 03:39.409 --> 03:42.039 warriors , not just defenders . So this 03:42.039 --> 03:44.710 war department , Mr . President , just 03:44.710 --> 03:46.766 like America is back . Thank you for 03:46.766 --> 03:48.710 your leadership and your clarity . 03:48.710 --> 03:50.766 We're going to set the tone for this 03:50.766 --> 03:53.000 country , America first , peace through 03:53.000 --> 03:55.600 strength brought to you by the War 03:55.600 --> 03:57.600 Department . We're back . Thank you 03:57.600 --> 03:59.544 very much , very well stated , and 03:59.544 --> 04:01.669 really it has to do with winning . We 04:01.669 --> 04:03.725 should have won every war . We could 04:03.725 --> 04:05.947 have won every war , but we , we really 04:05.947 --> 04:08.339 chose to be a very politically correct 04:08.339 --> 04:12.309 or wokey , and uh we just fight 04:12.309 --> 04:15.979 forever and then we , you know , win , 04:16.350 --> 04:18.461 we wouldn't lose really we just fight 04:18.461 --> 04:21.260 to sort of tie we never wanted to win . 04:22.218 --> 04:24.274 Wars that every one of them we would 04:24.274 --> 04:26.385 have won easily with just a couple of 04:26.385 --> 04:28.440 little changes or a couple of little 04:28.440 --> 04:30.440 edicts , you know , I was told that 04:30.440 --> 04:33.098 ISIS would take 5 years to win and Dan 04:33.098 --> 04:35.690 Kane . When I told him how long would 04:35.690 --> 04:37.690 it take , he said , I think about 4 04:37.690 --> 04:39.912 weeks , sir . I said , What do you mean 04:39.912 --> 04:41.912 4 weeks ? I was told 5 years by the 04:41.912 --> 04:43.912 people in Washington , you know who 04:43.912 --> 04:46.134 they were 5 years . I said you can't do 04:46.134 --> 04:49.079 it in 4 weeks . I actually flew to Iraq 04:49.570 --> 04:51.792 to meet with him and I met him at a big 04:51.792 --> 04:53.903 air base and remember that famous day 04:53.903 --> 04:55.959 it turned out to be a famous day for 04:55.959 --> 04:58.181 our country because you're now the head 04:58.181 --> 05:00.403 of the Joint Chiefs of Staff , which is 05:00.403 --> 05:02.626 the biggest deal . And he is because he 05:02.626 --> 05:04.514 did things that everybody said he 05:04.514 --> 05:06.737 couldn't do , so they said it was gonna 05:06.737 --> 05:08.792 be 5 years and he knocked him out in 05:08.792 --> 05:11.600 about 4 weeks total , 100% . We took 05:11.600 --> 05:15.489 over and ISIS was gone . And uh 05:15.959 --> 05:18.181 pretty amazing , but we never fought to 05:18.181 --> 05:20.399 win and now we uh if we have to fight 05:20.399 --> 05:23.070 it all , you know , we solved 7 wars . 05:23.480 --> 05:25.424 We have the one that I thought was 05:25.424 --> 05:27.591 going to be probably one of the easier 05:27.591 --> 05:29.647 ones and that's with President Putin 05:29.647 --> 05:32.049 and Ukraine , and that turned out to be 05:32.049 --> 05:34.327 one that's a little bit more difficult , 05:34.327 --> 05:36.549 but the 7 are done . They were supposed 05:36.549 --> 05:38.716 to be much more difficult to solve . I 05:38.716 --> 05:40.827 solved every one of them and uh we're 05:40.827 --> 05:42.938 going to get the other one done too , 05:42.938 --> 05:42.670 but it turned out to be a little bit 05:42.670 --> 05:45.540 more difficult than I thought . And uh 05:45.540 --> 05:47.707 you get done or they'll be held to pay 05:47.859 --> 05:50.026 but because they're losing 6 to 7 , it 05:50.026 --> 05:52.137 used to be 5 , I used to tell you 5 , 05:52.137 --> 05:55.899 now it's almost 7 , I guess 7000 people 05:55.899 --> 05:59.690 last week , 7,813 people , 05:59.940 --> 06:01.829 young soldiers died , Russian and 06:01.829 --> 06:04.051 Ukrainian , not American soldiers , but 06:04.051 --> 06:06.162 it's a shame and it's just , uh , you 06:06.162 --> 06:08.218 know , the human lives and I want to 06:08.218 --> 06:11.029 see it stop . But General Keynes done a 06:11.029 --> 06:14.269 fantastic job and again defeated ISIS 06:14.269 --> 06:16.940 which they said would take a long time 06:17.350 --> 06:19.461 and it didn't take a long time at all 06:19.461 --> 06:21.739 and did other things that people said 06:22.130 --> 06:24.186 really couldn't happen . We have the 06:24.186 --> 06:26.241 greatest equipment in the world . We 06:26.241 --> 06:28.574 have the greatest soldiers in the world . 06:28.574 --> 06:30.908 Dan , say a few words , sir . Thank you , 06:30.908 --> 06:33.100 Mr . President . It's a true honor for 06:33.100 --> 06:36.489 me today to represent the incredible 06:36.489 --> 06:39.510 men and women of America's joint force 06:39.980 --> 06:43.540 today and every day , the 2.8 million 06:43.540 --> 06:46.660 servicemen and women stand ready to 06:46.660 --> 06:48.980 fulfill our sacred duty to protect 06:48.980 --> 06:52.260 America at home and abroad . As the 06:52.260 --> 06:54.427 president said , America's military is 06:54.427 --> 06:57.049 the single most powerful fighting force 06:57.049 --> 06:59.739 in the world . The mission you and the 06:59.739 --> 07:02.179 secretary have given us is clear and 07:02.179 --> 07:04.820 unambiguous to deliver peace through 07:04.820 --> 07:07.839 overwhelming strength . And I remind 07:07.839 --> 07:10.061 everyone that the US military can reach 07:10.061 --> 07:13.839 any adversary at the time and place of 07:13.839 --> 07:16.630 our choosing . Service to this nation 07:16.630 --> 07:18.760 is an incredible gift , and we're 07:18.760 --> 07:21.320 grateful and honored every day to do so . 07:21.480 --> 07:23.758 Thank you , Mr . President . Thank you , 07:23.758 --> 07:25.980 and it's an honor to sign this , and we 07:25.980 --> 07:27.369 will do that right now . 07:36.640 --> 07:38.584 I think that's a big one . I'll be 07:38.584 --> 07:39.640 honest , I think . 07:48.679 --> 07:51.640 That's a big one . Do you have any 07:51.640 --> 07:53.862 questions on this subject ? We're going 07:53.862 --> 07:56.084 to be discussing the G20 in a couple of 07:56.084 --> 07:58.251 minutes , but yes , please . What gave 07:58.251 --> 08:00.362 you the idea for this rebrand and the 08:00.362 --> 08:02.584 question for the newly minted Secretary 08:02.584 --> 08:04.807 of War . What message does this send to 08:04.807 --> 08:06.862 our enemies , to our allies , to the 08:06.862 --> 08:09.084 American people , and again , what gave 08:09.084 --> 08:11.196 you the idea for this rebrand at this 08:11.196 --> 08:13.251 moment in history , sir ? I think it 08:13.251 --> 08:15.473 sends a message of victory . I think it 08:15.473 --> 08:17.579 sends a message of strength . We're 08:17.579 --> 08:19.746 very strong . We're much stronger than 08:19.746 --> 08:22.079 anyone would really understand , uh , 08:22.109 --> 08:24.276 and again , you know , having , having 08:24.276 --> 08:26.387 the great equipment , we have just so 08:26.387 --> 08:28.553 much better . You look at all of the , 08:28.553 --> 08:31.820 uh , just any of it , submarines as an 08:31.820 --> 08:33.709 example . We're 20 years ahead of 08:33.709 --> 08:35.876 anyone else . Nobody even compares and 08:35.876 --> 08:37.931 I let a lot of this . Happened in my 08:37.931 --> 08:39.876 first term , you know , we totally 08:39.876 --> 08:41.987 rebuilt our military . Then of course 08:41.987 --> 08:44.209 you had that catastrophe in Afghanistan 08:44.219 --> 08:45.997 where they gave up a lot of the 08:45.997 --> 08:47.979 equipment , but a relatively small 08:47.979 --> 08:50.419 amount , but a lot . It was a lot in 08:50.419 --> 08:52.530 Afghanistan . I think it was the most 08:52.739 --> 08:54.517 general I'd say it was the most 08:54.517 --> 08:56.683 embarrassing day in the history of our 08:56.683 --> 08:58.795 country , the way that happened , the 08:58.795 --> 09:00.850 way they went to the wrong airport . 09:00.850 --> 09:02.961 They should have gone to Bagram , not 09:02.961 --> 09:04.906 the local little airport with no . 09:04.906 --> 09:06.961 Security with tight quarters , etc . 09:07.020 --> 09:09.242 you know what happened . I think it was 09:09.242 --> 09:11.242 the most embarrassing moment in the 09:11.242 --> 09:13.464 history of our country , frankly , that 09:13.464 --> 09:13.419 was under the Biden administration . It 09:13.419 --> 09:16.140 was terrible and we were gonna be 09:16.140 --> 09:18.084 leaving , but we were leaving with 09:18.084 --> 09:20.140 strength and dignity . We were gonna 09:20.140 --> 09:22.140 keep Bagram . Because Bagram is one 09:22.140 --> 09:24.549 hour away from where China makes its 09:24.549 --> 09:26.660 nuclear weapons . We're going to have 09:26.660 --> 09:28.882 that all to ourselves , a big beautiful 09:28.882 --> 09:30.993 place built many years ago from money 09:30.993 --> 09:33.216 that today would be the equivalent of , 09:33.216 --> 09:35.160 you know , many , many billions of 09:35.160 --> 09:37.271 dollars . You couldn't build it . The 09:37.271 --> 09:39.271 longest runways , the most powerful 09:39.271 --> 09:41.510 runways in terms of load capacity , and 09:41.510 --> 09:43.969 we just walked away from it , so stupid , 09:44.469 --> 09:46.789 and they were fools . The people were 09:46.789 --> 09:49.320 fools . Now we're . We have the 09:49.320 --> 09:51.320 strongest military and I think that 09:51.320 --> 09:53.098 indicates we have the strongest 09:53.098 --> 09:55.264 military and you know we had it and we 09:55.264 --> 09:57.960 won World War 1 . We won World War 2 we 09:57.960 --> 10:00.071 won everything before and as I said , 10:00.071 --> 10:03.640 we won everything in between and we 10:03.640 --> 10:06.520 were very strong but we never fought to 10:06.520 --> 10:09.219 win . We just didn't fight to win . Uh , 10:09.239 --> 10:11.461 we didn't lose anything , but we didn't 10:11.461 --> 10:13.628 fight to win . We could have won every 10:13.628 --> 10:15.683 one of those wars quickly , but they 10:15.683 --> 10:17.919 went . A route that I think was 10:17.919 --> 10:20.559 probably uh politically correct but not 10:20.559 --> 10:23.119 correct for our nation . So I think the 10:23.119 --> 10:26.210 Department of War sends a signal . Yeah , 10:26.219 --> 10:28.559 please you alluded to this a little 10:28.559 --> 10:30.503 while ago , but you said that this 10:30.503 --> 10:32.670 rename is a quote a good reflection of 10:32.670 --> 10:35.000 where the world is at right now . How 10:35.000 --> 10:37.167 do you square naming it the department 10:37.167 --> 10:39.333 of war when you've been pursuing peace 10:39.630 --> 10:41.963 in so many different parts of the world ? 10:41.963 --> 10:43.797 Well , I think I've gotten peace 10:43.797 --> 10:43.679 because of the fact that we're strong . 10:44.179 --> 10:46.346 If we weren't strong , those 7 deals I 10:46.346 --> 10:48.619 told you about , the 7 wars , a 10:48.619 --> 10:50.952 majority of them wouldn't have happened . 10:51.099 --> 10:53.820 They happen for two reasons trade and 10:53.820 --> 10:55.653 our strength . Those are the two 10:55.653 --> 10:58.580 reasons , and probably strength may be 10:58.580 --> 11:01.409 more important than trade . So if we , 11:01.419 --> 11:03.475 I was very proud of all those wars , 11:03.475 --> 11:05.641 wars that could not be settled , and I 11:05.641 --> 11:07.863 settled all of them , and we'll get the 11:07.863 --> 11:09.919 other one settled also . That'll get 11:09.919 --> 11:12.030 settled . But without the strength we 11:12.030 --> 11:11.559 wouldn't have settled any of them . 11:17.210 --> 11:19.377 I don't know , but we're going to find 11:19.377 --> 11:21.488 out , but I'm not sure they have to . 11:21.488 --> 11:23.766 We're signing an executive order today , 11:24.049 --> 11:26.049 but we're going to find out . We're 11:26.049 --> 11:28.160 going to see if they do , we're going 11:28.160 --> 11:30.216 with it and we're going with it very 11:30.216 --> 11:32.216 strongly . There's a question as to 11:32.216 --> 11:34.438 whether or not they have to , but We'll 11:34.438 --> 11:36.493 put it before Congress . Do you know 11:36.493 --> 11:38.493 how much this rebrand will actually 11:38.493 --> 11:40.827 cost ? And are there any concerns about , 11:40.827 --> 11:40.494 you know , the Pentagon's mission and 11:40.494 --> 11:43.325 cutting back on spending . We know how 11:43.325 --> 11:45.547 to rebrand without having to go crazy . 11:45.547 --> 11:47.769 We don't have to re-carve a mountain or 11:47.769 --> 11:50.103 anything . We're gonna be doing it , uh , 11:50.103 --> 11:52.325 not in the most expensive . We're gonna 11:52.375 --> 11:54.375 start changing the stationary as it 11:54.375 --> 11:56.486 comes through and lots of things like 11:56.486 --> 11:58.819 that . We're not going to be doing . Uh , 11:58.819 --> 12:00.986 things like have been done in the past 12:00.986 --> 12:02.986 when they changed the name of forts 12:02.986 --> 12:02.130 that shouldn't have been changed . 12:02.210 --> 12:04.210 Those names of the forts should not 12:04.210 --> 12:06.266 have been changed , at least for the 12:06.266 --> 12:08.609 most part , uh , and as you know , many 12:08.609 --> 12:10.442 of them have been changed back . 12:13.700 --> 12:15.789 Community said we want our name back 12:16.390 --> 12:18.830 like Fort Bragg as an example . The 12:18.830 --> 12:20.950 people in that community wanted that 12:20.950 --> 12:22.950 name back . They refused to call it 12:23.190 --> 12:25.659 anything else but Fort Bragg , so , uh , 12:25.669 --> 12:27.780 we're not gonna be spending very much 12:27.780 --> 12:28.780 money on that . 12:36.289 --> 12:38.456 Yes you spoke with earlier this week , 12:38.456 --> 12:36.479 did you preview this for them and did 12:36.479 --> 12:38.535 you say ? This is nothing to do with 12:38.535 --> 12:40.368 anybody but the United States of 12:40.368 --> 12:42.535 America , the people of America . This 12:42.535 --> 12:44.869 is who I talked to about changing a 12:44.869 --> 12:47.036 name . This is a very important change 12:47.036 --> 12:50.890 because it's uh . It's an attitude And 12:50.940 --> 12:53.162 we know how to win . We've been winning 12:53.162 --> 12:55.273 and we're gonna win like you've never 12:55.273 --> 12:57.329 seen . When these factories start to 12:57.329 --> 12:59.440 open up that are being built all over 12:59.440 --> 12:59.099 the country . You're gonna see things 12:59.099 --> 13:01.330 happen in this country that nobody 13:01.900 --> 13:05.239 expects . We have over $17 trillion in 13:05.239 --> 13:07.461 investment coming into the country . We 13:07.461 --> 13:09.406 never did anything . Even remotely 13:09.406 --> 13:11.572 close to that , we've never , no other 13:11.572 --> 13:13.770 country has either , by the way , so 13:13.770 --> 13:15.770 you're going to see things that are 13:15.770 --> 13:17.937 pretty amazing , but it's really about 13:17.937 --> 13:21.770 winning . Well , 13:21.849 --> 13:23.905 we'll work it out . We'll we'll help 13:23.905 --> 13:26.127 them , we want to save a lot of lives , 13:26.127 --> 13:28.127 so we'll do something with that . I 13:28.127 --> 13:28.049 think people expect that we'll help 13:28.049 --> 13:31.849 them . Europe will be first in by 13:31.849 --> 13:33.960 far , and they want to be first , and 13:33.960 --> 13:36.071 they want , they want to see it end . 13:36.071 --> 13:38.182 Europe wants to see it end . Uh , and 13:38.182 --> 13:40.293 it'll end . It'll end , uh , all of a 13:40.293 --> 13:42.405 sudden it's gonna come together . You 13:42.405 --> 13:44.516 watch , yeah , did you want something 13:44.516 --> 13:43.260 right ? 13:48.659 --> 13:50.603 Yeah , behind you , please . Yes , 13:50.603 --> 13:52.659 decisive offensive action to protect 13:52.659 --> 13:54.659 American values . Strikes in on the 13:54.659 --> 13:56.548 strikes this past Tuesday and the 13:56.548 --> 13:58.437 positively ID trend to Iraq narco 13:58.437 --> 14:00.215 terrorists . Is that gonna be a 14:00.215 --> 14:02.326 critical function of the department ? 14:02.326 --> 14:04.548 It depends on the individual instance , 14:04.548 --> 14:06.659 you know , we don't want drugs coming 14:06.659 --> 14:08.715 in from Venezuela or anybody else or 14:08.715 --> 14:10.881 any place else , and we'll be tough on 14:10.881 --> 14:12.659 that and we don't want uh human 14:12.659 --> 14:14.603 trafficking . We don't want to see 14:14.603 --> 14:16.770 people coming in where they open their 14:16.770 --> 14:18.770 prisons from all over the world and 14:18.770 --> 14:20.715 they dump their prisoners into our 14:20.715 --> 14:22.937 country , which is what they did in the 14:22.937 --> 14:24.992 Biden administration where they took 14:24.992 --> 14:28.549 insane asylums and . Uh , places that 14:28.549 --> 14:30.327 held people that were seriously 14:30.327 --> 14:32.438 mentally ill , mentally incompetent , 14:32.750 --> 14:34.806 mentally dangerous , and they dumped 14:34.806 --> 14:37.229 those people into our country and we're 14:37.229 --> 14:39.929 trying to get them out now . Uh , what 14:39.929 --> 14:42.040 they've done , what the Democrats and 14:42.040 --> 14:44.590 Biden have done to this country will go 14:44.590 --> 14:47.950 down in infamy . What they have done to 14:47.950 --> 14:50.429 our country and especially that , you 14:50.429 --> 14:52.651 know , they created the worst inflation 14:52.651 --> 14:55.140 we've ever had . That's nothing 14:55.140 --> 14:57.340 compared to what they did with the 14:57.340 --> 14:59.451 people in our country right now , and 14:59.451 --> 15:01.451 we're getting them out and it's not 15:01.451 --> 15:03.562 easy when you have the liberal judges 15:03.562 --> 15:05.940 destroying our country , but we've won 15:05.940 --> 15:08.107 them all , we've won it all ultimately 15:08.107 --> 15:10.700 won it all hard process . It should be 15:10.700 --> 15:12.756 easier . We know who it is . We know 15:12.756 --> 15:14.922 exactly who we're looking for . We had 15:14.922 --> 15:17.340 11,000 murderers dropped into our 15:17.340 --> 15:19.396 country . We've gotten a lot of them 15:19.396 --> 15:21.590 out . Uh , or in some cases they're so 15:21.590 --> 15:23.757 dangerous we're afraid to get them out 15:23.757 --> 15:26.140 because they'd come back in . But for 15:26.140 --> 15:29.940 the last 120 days 0 15:29.940 --> 15:32.051 people came in . Can you imagine this 15:32.051 --> 15:34.369 is me speaking , but these are uh 15:35.289 --> 15:37.340 figures developed by , they say a 15:37.340 --> 15:39.820 pretty liberal group of people . They 15:39.820 --> 15:42.020 admit that 0 people came into our 15:42.020 --> 15:44.140 country . Think of that , uh , a year 15:44.140 --> 15:46.084 ago it was millions of people were 15:46.084 --> 15:48.196 coming in , millions they were coming 15:48.196 --> 15:50.900 in , uh , you could look at them and 15:50.900 --> 15:54.340 you could say big trouble . And that's 15:54.340 --> 15:56.562 what we have in our country , but we're 15:56.562 --> 15:58.784 getting them out and despite that we're 15:58.784 --> 16:00.673 doing really well . Yeah , yeah , 16:04.739 --> 16:06.683 well , the recruitment is the most 16:06.683 --> 16:09.489 exciting thing . So , uh , when I was 16:09.489 --> 16:11.711 campaigning for the office numbers were 16:11.711 --> 16:13.933 coming out that the recruitment numbers 16:13.933 --> 16:16.100 generally you could speak to it better 16:16.100 --> 16:18.322 than anybody , the recruitment into the 16:18.322 --> 16:20.545 military , all branches of the military 16:20.545 --> 16:20.530 and police and firemen and everything 16:20.530 --> 16:22.830 else . Anything having to do with like 16:22.830 --> 16:25.460 a public service , the numbers were 16:25.460 --> 16:28.530 horrible , record setting bad . And now 16:28.530 --> 16:30.530 they're record setting good . We're 16:30.530 --> 16:32.586 setting every record every month for 16:32.586 --> 16:34.808 recruitment . We're we're packed in the 16:34.808 --> 16:36.808 Army , Navy , Air Force , Marines , 16:36.808 --> 16:40.090 Coast Guard , my beautiful , uh , 16:40.820 --> 16:43.510 I love Space Command . I love space . I 16:43.510 --> 16:45.979 see Space Command , but Space Force has 16:45.979 --> 16:48.559 been , uh , we've got a waiting list of 16:48.559 --> 16:50.979 people wanting to go in , uh , a year 16:50.979 --> 16:53.257 ago , especially a year and a half ago , 16:53.257 --> 16:55.423 you know , when I took the lead in the 16:55.423 --> 16:57.312 polls , which was very early . It 16:57.312 --> 16:59.423 really helped with the recruiting and 16:59.423 --> 17:01.590 when I won from November 5th on , it's 17:01.590 --> 17:03.869 been amazing and over the last 4 or 5 17:03.869 --> 17:06.390 months it's been , we're just packed it 17:06.390 --> 17:08.557 was very hard to get police officers . 17:08.557 --> 17:10.660 Now the departments are loaded up . 17:10.829 --> 17:12.940 Everyone wants to be a policeman or a 17:12.940 --> 17:14.996 woman . So it's been a great thing , 17:14.996 --> 17:16.996 General . Do you want to talk about 17:16.996 --> 17:19.162 that , sir , as you said , serving our 17:19.162 --> 17:21.218 nation is an incredible gift that we 17:21.218 --> 17:23.329 give and the reward on that gift pays 17:23.329 --> 17:25.551 back exponentially year over year , and 17:25.551 --> 17:27.773 I think the young people of America are 17:27.773 --> 17:29.829 seeing the importance of service and 17:30.109 --> 17:31.942 whether it's in any of our armed 17:31.942 --> 17:34.165 services or in local police , fire , or 17:34.165 --> 17:36.719 rescue service is an important thing 17:36.719 --> 17:39.449 that I personally encourage and I know 17:39.449 --> 17:41.449 everyone else in government service 17:41.449 --> 17:43.116 sees that same reward . On on 17:43.116 --> 17:45.569 recruitment . I was down at Fort 17:45.569 --> 17:47.729 Benning , the newly properly renamed 17:47.729 --> 17:49.507 Fort Benning yesterday watching 17:49.930 --> 17:52.010 watching Army basic training and 17:52.010 --> 17:53.954 they're they're so full they can't 17:53.954 --> 17:56.010 barely handle the throughput . It is 17:56.010 --> 17:58.288 truly historic across all the services , 17:58.288 --> 18:00.510 as you said , it's been a surge in into 18:00.510 --> 18:02.399 the , I was gonna say the Defense 18:02.399 --> 18:04.399 Department , but I will say the War 18:04.399 --> 18:06.566 Department . And that you might almost 18:06.566 --> 18:08.510 call it a vibe shift , an attitude 18:08.510 --> 18:10.621 shift , a feeling that the country is 18:10.621 --> 18:12.843 back , that service is back , and there 18:12.843 --> 18:15.066 were military families last year , Mr . 18:15.066 --> 18:14.189 President , that said , I don't know if 18:14.189 --> 18:16.245 I can recommend . I mean , I wrote a 18:16.245 --> 18:18.300 book on this . I don't know if I can 18:18.300 --> 18:20.633 recommend service to my son or daughter , 18:20.633 --> 18:22.911 given what's been done to our military . 18:22.911 --> 18:22.630 You heard it over and over and over 18:22.630 --> 18:24.574 again . And I hear from those same 18:24.574 --> 18:26.797 military families right now , sir , and 18:26.797 --> 18:29.019 they're saying , I recommend to my kids 18:29.019 --> 18:31.019 that they go into this department , 18:31.019 --> 18:33.130 this Pentagon under this commander in 18:33.130 --> 18:35.241 chief who they know you'll have their 18:35.241 --> 18:37.408 back and they want to serve . So it is 18:37.408 --> 18:39.074 historic and it's the biggest 18:39.074 --> 18:41.186 reflection of how motivated Americans 18:41.186 --> 18:43.186 are by your leadership , you know , 18:43.186 --> 18:45.186 really nothing . More than spirit , 18:45.186 --> 18:47.130 love for the country , I guess the 18:47.130 --> 18:49.241 spirit corps , as they say , you have 18:49.510 --> 18:51.788 more of that than we've had maybe ever , 18:51.788 --> 18:54.829 frankly , but , uh , to see it turn 18:55.500 --> 18:57.611 over a period of less than a year , I 18:57.611 --> 18:59.833 would say , but to see it turn , nobody 18:59.833 --> 19:01.778 wanted to go into the military now 19:01.778 --> 19:04.111 everybody wants to go into the military . 19:04.111 --> 19:06.222 Jennifer , there's some new reporting 19:06.222 --> 19:09.089 on this Navy SEAL incident in 2019 . 19:09.420 --> 19:11.531 Can you say if the administration has 19:11.531 --> 19:13.364 engaged with North Korea on that 19:13.364 --> 19:16.859 incident since it happened I don't know 19:16.859 --> 19:18.939 anything about it . I'd have to , I 19:18.939 --> 19:21.050 could look , but I know nothing about 19:21.050 --> 19:23.400 it . I don't know anything about it . 19:23.520 --> 19:25.687 You , I'm hearing it now for the first 19:25.687 --> 19:27.742 time . OK , great . And then now the 19:27.742 --> 19:30.040 Hyundai incident in Georgia the arrest 19:30.040 --> 19:33.109 of construction workers at the plant . 19:33.380 --> 19:35.213 Have you heard any feedback from 19:35.213 --> 19:37.213 Hyundai ? I just heard about that a 19:37.213 --> 19:39.547 little while before the news conference , 19:39.547 --> 19:42.560 and I would say that they were illegal 19:42.560 --> 19:45.930 aliens . And I was just doing its job , 19:46.500 --> 19:48.611 but I know nothing about the instance 19:48.611 --> 19:50.556 that happened a little while ago . 19:50.556 --> 19:52.611 There has been some pushback on that 19:52.611 --> 19:54.722 though from South Korea and of course 19:54.722 --> 19:56.722 you know they pledged to invest $10 19:56.722 --> 20:00.099 billion in the US here last week . Well , 20:00.150 --> 20:02.206 they have the right to sell cars and 20:02.206 --> 20:04.428 things in our country , you know , it's 20:04.428 --> 20:06.428 not like a one-sided deal . Are you 20:06.428 --> 20:08.428 concerned at all about , you know , 20:08.428 --> 20:10.539 your immigration agenda clashing with 20:10.539 --> 20:12.650 these economic goals . Well , we want 20:12.650 --> 20:14.761 to get along with other countries and 20:14.761 --> 20:16.483 we want to have a great stable 20:16.483 --> 20:18.520 workforce , and we had , as I 20:18.520 --> 20:21.119 understand it , a lot of illegal aliens , 20:21.530 --> 20:24.530 some not the best of people , but we 20:24.530 --> 20:26.530 had a lot of illegal aliens working 20:26.530 --> 20:28.474 there so you know , look , they're 20:28.474 --> 20:28.449 doing their job . That's what they have 20:28.449 --> 20:30.393 to do . These are people that came 20:30.393 --> 20:32.560 through with Biden . They came through 20:32.560 --> 20:34.838 illegally . They came into our country , 20:34.838 --> 20:36.893 so we have to do our job in Congress 20:36.893 --> 20:35.540 with 20:35.540 --> 20:41.760 proposing 20:41.760 --> 20:44.000 and passing a crime bill . What are 20:44.000 --> 20:46.167 some things that you would really like 20:46.167 --> 20:48.389 to see that , I think one of the things 20:48.389 --> 20:50.444 is the cash . bail , it's killing it 20:50.444 --> 20:52.667 when that came out originally when that 20:52.667 --> 20:54.778 came out the first time , that's when 20:54.778 --> 20:56.778 you saw the real big crime start to 20:56.778 --> 20:58.655 happen , cashless bail . What a 20:58.655 --> 21:01.045 disaster that is . You murder somebody , 21:01.094 --> 21:03.205 you don't have to put up bail and you 21:03.205 --> 21:05.205 go out in the street and you murder 21:05.205 --> 21:07.372 somebody else . That's what's happened 21:07.372 --> 21:09.483 happened so often , and that's one of 21:09.483 --> 21:11.427 the things and other of the things 21:11.427 --> 21:13.594 you're reading about , you know , it's 21:13.594 --> 21:15.538 just standard , but just a certain 21:15.538 --> 21:17.594 toughness . I , I have to say one of 21:17.594 --> 21:19.483 the . Elements of fascination for 21:19.483 --> 21:21.705 people over the last period of time has 21:21.705 --> 21:23.816 been what's happened to DC , so we've 21:23.816 --> 21:26.770 gone from one of the most dangerous 21:26.770 --> 21:29.300 cities in our country to a what they 21:29.300 --> 21:32.010 call a safe city . It's a totally safe 21:32.420 --> 21:35.180 city . In fact , I set up dinner in 21:35.180 --> 21:37.979 Washington DC next week . I wouldn't 21:37.979 --> 21:40.201 have done that , to be honest . I would 21:40.201 --> 21:42.312 have had an obligation not to do it . 21:43.290 --> 21:45.449 Before I came into office or even at 21:45.449 --> 21:47.849 the very beginning when things were so 21:47.849 --> 21:49.849 corrupt and so dangerous out on the 21:49.849 --> 21:52.930 streets , so Washington DC has had 21:52.930 --> 21:55.410 virtually no crime . We even have a 21:55.410 --> 21:57.354 mayor that's admitting to it , and 21:57.354 --> 21:59.760 she's a , you know , liberal Democrat , 21:59.829 --> 22:02.719 in all fairness . She's a person that 22:03.130 --> 22:05.089 hasn't gotten exactly along with 22:05.089 --> 22:07.719 Republicans over the years . And she 22:07.719 --> 22:09.997 said she's never seen anything like it , 22:09.997 --> 22:12.349 so Washington DC is a totally safe city . 22:12.599 --> 22:15.920 We have virtually no crime . It's gone 22:15.920 --> 22:19.160 from the most unsafe city in the United 22:19.160 --> 22:22.239 States , almost just about to one of 22:22.239 --> 22:24.295 the safest cities , maybe the safest 22:24.295 --> 22:26.350 city in the United States . That's a 22:26.350 --> 22:29.280 tremendous compliment to . Our military 22:29.280 --> 22:31.336 and what we did the National Guard's 22:31.336 --> 22:35.089 done a fantastic job . House Speaker 22:35.089 --> 22:37.089 Daniel Perez was at the White House 22:37.089 --> 22:38.978 yesterday as part of a leadership 22:38.978 --> 22:38.089 summit . 22:46.449 --> 22:48.616 I didn't , we didn't talk about that , 22:48.616 --> 22:50.671 but he's done a fantastic job . He's 22:50.671 --> 22:53.005 respected all over the country , really . 22:53.005 --> 22:55.060 He's a leader . And he's done just a 22:55.060 --> 22:56.949 fantastic job . We didn't discuss 22:57.239 --> 22:59.461 anything having to do with his future . 22:59.461 --> 23:01.517 I'm sure he'd be very good at that . 23:01.599 --> 23:04.439 Alligator Alcatraz , a major ruling 23:04.439 --> 23:08.199 appeals court to close it and open for 23:08.199 --> 23:10.709 now , your reaction . I think they've 23:10.709 --> 23:12.820 done a fantastic job in building it . 23:12.820 --> 23:14.987 The governor and everybody else that's 23:14.987 --> 23:17.520 been involved . It's an incredible 23:17.520 --> 23:21.000 facility . It's housing people for a 23:21.000 --> 23:23.111 very short period of time before they 23:23.111 --> 23:25.222 get brought back to their countries . 23:25.800 --> 23:28.079 As you know , we focus on criminals 23:28.079 --> 23:30.190 before we focus on anybody else , and 23:30.190 --> 23:32.739 we're taking thousands and thousands of 23:32.739 --> 23:34.795 criminals out every month out of our 23:34.795 --> 23:37.719 country , some of them murderers , and 23:37.719 --> 23:39.941 I think Florida has done a great job by 23:39.941 --> 23:41.663 building it and . Whether it's 23:41.663 --> 23:43.886 Alligator Alcatraz or anything else you 23:43.886 --> 23:45.775 want to call it , I was there . I 23:45.775 --> 23:48.390 visited with the governor , with other 23:48.390 --> 23:51.020 people , I guess , uh , Nicky was there . 23:51.390 --> 23:53.589 Tom Holman's been there a lot , a lot 23:53.589 --> 23:55.700 of people have been there from it's , 23:55.700 --> 23:58.033 it's an amazing facility for what it is . 23:58.033 --> 24:00.256 It's not a hotel , it's not supposed to 24:00.256 --> 24:02.367 be a hotel , but they've done a great 24:02.367 --> 24:04.478 job with it , and I'm very happy with 24:04.478 --> 24:07.719 the judge's decision . Venezuela . On 24:07.719 --> 24:10.310 the US strike Venezuelan drug cartel , 24:10.520 --> 24:12.979 the Maduro regime is pushing back the 24:12.979 --> 24:15.329 US sees regime change through military 24:15.329 --> 24:17.440 threat , your reaction to those words 24:17.440 --> 24:19.551 and also would you like to see regime 24:19.551 --> 24:21.773 change ? Well , we're not talking about 24:21.773 --> 24:23.773 that , but we are talking about the 24:23.773 --> 24:26.410 fact that you had an election which was 24:27.079 --> 24:29.190 a very strange election , to put it , 24:29.319 --> 24:31.541 I'm being very nice when I say that . I 24:31.541 --> 24:34.949 can only say that . Billions of dollars 24:34.949 --> 24:37.060 of drugs are pouring into our country 24:37.060 --> 24:39.390 from Venezuela . The prisons of 24:39.390 --> 24:41.446 Venezuela have been opened up to our 24:41.446 --> 24:43.779 country . They've taken their prisoners , 24:43.779 --> 24:45.668 the worst prisoners , murderers , 24:45.668 --> 24:47.890 trendiaragua , the worst prisoners that 24:47.890 --> 24:50.310 you can ever imagine are now happily 24:50.310 --> 24:52.588 living in the United States of America . 24:52.589 --> 24:55.510 Now many of them we've gotten out . Not 24:55.510 --> 24:57.510 easy to get them out because of the 24:57.510 --> 24:59.677 liberal system that we're working with 24:59.677 --> 25:01.954 in many cases , not in all cases , but , 25:01.954 --> 25:05.670 uh , millions and millions of dollars 25:05.670 --> 25:08.469 and billions of dollars of drugs are 25:08.469 --> 25:10.469 pouring out of Venezuela and other 25:10.469 --> 25:13.430 countries . Look , China , what they're 25:13.430 --> 25:16.140 doing with fentanyl is a terrible thing . 25:16.469 --> 25:18.525 It comes through Canada and it comes 25:18.525 --> 25:21.750 through Mexico , but , uh , a lot of 25:21.750 --> 25:23.528 it's coming through Venezuela . 25:23.528 --> 25:26.020 Venezuela has been . A very bad actor 25:26.300 --> 25:28.510 and we understand that and when you 25:28.510 --> 25:30.621 look at that boat , you look at the , 25:30.621 --> 25:32.959 you see the bags of whatever it is that 25:32.959 --> 25:35.270 those bags were , you know , those bags 25:35.270 --> 25:37.603 represent hundreds of thousands of dead . 25:37.859 --> 25:39.959 People in the United States , that's 25:39.959 --> 25:41.181 what they represent . 25:44.640 --> 25:46.529 I'm going to talk about that in a 25:46.529 --> 25:48.807 minute . We have our great people here , 25:48.807 --> 25:50.918 so I'll talk about that in a minute . 25:50.918 --> 25:50.719 Let's talk about this . We'll give a 25:50.719 --> 25:52.941 couple of them because these two people 25:52.941 --> 25:55.052 want to get to work on the Department 25:55.052 --> 25:57.330 of War , so let's keep them first . Mr . 25:57.330 --> 25:59.219 President , the DOJ is reportedly 25:59.219 --> 26:01.441 considering a ban on transgender people 26:01.441 --> 26:03.435 owning guns after the Minneapolis 26:03.435 --> 26:05.602 shooting . Do you think are we talking 26:05.602 --> 26:08.234 in the military ? OK , I thought you 26:08.234 --> 26:10.290 were talking about in the military . 26:11.714 --> 26:13.714 I'll refer to that then differently 26:13.714 --> 26:15.881 because it's not a military question . 26:15.881 --> 26:17.770 I'll be able to pass on that very 26:17.770 --> 26:19.936 nicely unless you'd like to talk about 26:19.936 --> 26:22.158 it . Pete doesn't want any part of that 26:22.158 --> 26:20.709 question . 26:28.560 --> 26:30.560 Yes , for losing India to China . I 26:30.560 --> 26:30.410 don't think we have , you know , I , 26:30.579 --> 26:32.849 I've been very disappointed that India 26:32.849 --> 26:36.369 would be buying so much oil , as you 26:36.369 --> 26:40.369 know , from Russia , and uh I let them 26:40.369 --> 26:42.480 know that we put a very big tariff on 26:42.480 --> 26:44.959 India , 50% tariff , very high tariff . 26:45.699 --> 26:48.880 Uh , I get along very well with Modi , 26:48.890 --> 26:51.057 as you know , he's great . He was here 26:51.057 --> 26:53.168 a couple of months ago . In fact , we 26:53.168 --> 26:55.334 went to the Rose Garden and it was the 26:55.334 --> 26:58.560 grass was so soaking wet . It was so 26:59.609 --> 27:01.665 such a terrible place to have a news 27:01.665 --> 27:03.831 conference . I said , well , let's use 27:03.831 --> 27:06.053 a beautiful white stone . Emblematic of 27:06.053 --> 27:08.109 the White House , and it's been very 27:08.109 --> 27:09.998 well received , but we had a news 27:09.998 --> 27:12.660 conference in the on the grass . That 27:12.660 --> 27:14.716 was my last news conference I had on 27:14.716 --> 27:16.827 the grass because everybody sunk in . 27:16.827 --> 27:18.938 You probably sunk in . Every reporter 27:18.938 --> 27:21.049 out there , they ruined their shoes . 27:21.049 --> 27:22.938 We made that change . It's been a 27:22.938 --> 27:22.859 really well received change . Yeah , 27:22.979 --> 27:25.257 please go ahead . F-35s in Puerto Rico . 27:25.257 --> 27:28.979 You've sent naval vessels in the 27:28.979 --> 27:31.312 Caribbean . You're concerned about drug . 27:32.489 --> 27:33.878 How do you describe this 27:38.280 --> 27:40.447 this situation ? Well , I just say get 27:40.447 --> 27:40.280 strong . We're strong on drugs . We 27:40.280 --> 27:42.560 don't want drugs killing our people . I 27:42.560 --> 27:44.616 believe we lost 300,000 , you know , 27:44.616 --> 27:46.504 they always say 95 or 100,000 . I 27:46.504 --> 27:48.727 believe they've been saying that for 20 27:48.727 --> 27:50.616 years . I believe we lost 300,000 27:50.616 --> 27:52.838 people last year . I know families that 27:52.838 --> 27:54.893 lost their son . Those families will 27:54.893 --> 27:56.893 never be the same . I know a family 27:56.893 --> 27:59.171 lost a daughter , a beautiful daughter . 27:59.171 --> 28:00.893 In fact , it was like she took 28:00.893 --> 28:03.004 something that she thought was like a 28:03.004 --> 28:04.949 minor deal and it turned out to be 28:04.949 --> 28:07.530 riddled out with fentanyl , uh , the 28:07.530 --> 28:09.969 size of the head of a pin and you're 28:09.969 --> 28:12.550 dead . And uh now we're , we're 28:12.550 --> 28:14.772 stopping the drugs . We're gonna save a 28:14.772 --> 28:16.939 lot of people . Look , uh whether it's 28:16.939 --> 28:18.939 100,000 , but it's not , it's 300 , 28:18.939 --> 28:21.069 350,000 people died last year from 28:21.069 --> 28:23.125 drugs . And we're not gonna let that 28:23.125 --> 28:25.402 happen to this country . Think of that . 28:25.402 --> 28:27.513 Think if you're in a war and you lose 28:27.513 --> 28:29.625 300,000 , we'll lose 600,000 in the , 28:29.625 --> 28:32.369 uh , pretty much between Gettysburg and 28:32.369 --> 28:34.800 all of that and the Civil War , we lost 28:34.800 --> 28:37.770 what 600,000 , so we're losing half of 28:37.770 --> 28:39.826 that every year to drugs . We're not 28:39.826 --> 28:41.992 gonna do it . We're not gonna allow it 28:41.992 --> 28:44.159 to happen . You think of the wars . If 28:44.159 --> 28:47.770 we lost 600,000 people in a war , but 28:47.770 --> 28:51.010 we , we lose that every two years , 28:51.170 --> 28:54.729 more than that . So it's 300 to 350,000 28:54.729 --> 28:57.010 people , and when I see boats coming in 28:57.010 --> 28:59.689 like loaded up the other day with all 28:59.689 --> 29:01.633 sorts of drugs , probably fentanyl 29:01.633 --> 29:03.890 mostly , but all sorts of drugs , and 29:03.890 --> 29:05.890 we're going to take them out and if 29:05.890 --> 29:08.689 people want to . Uh , have fun going on 29:08.689 --> 29:10.911 the high seas or the low seas , they're 29:10.911 --> 29:13.133 gonna be in trouble . I will tell you , 29:13.133 --> 29:16.150 boat traffic is substantially down . In 29:16.150 --> 29:18.317 the area that happened and they called 29:18.317 --> 29:20.539 it the runway . It's a runway to it's a 29:20.539 --> 29:23.430 runway to the United States , and boat 29:23.430 --> 29:25.541 traffic is very substantially down on 29:25.541 --> 29:27.597 the runway . You can imagine why . I 29:27.597 --> 29:29.819 think anybody that saw that is going to 29:29.819 --> 29:31.819 say I'll take a pass . I don't even 29:31.819 --> 29:34.041 know about fishing , but they may say , 29:34.041 --> 29:36.152 I'm not getting on the boat . I'm not 29:36.152 --> 29:39.650 going to take a chance . Well , I would 29:39.650 --> 29:41.706 say they're going to be in trouble . 29:41.706 --> 29:43.706 We'll let them know about that . We 29:43.706 --> 29:45.594 heard that happen , but it wasn't 29:45.594 --> 29:47.817 really over , not like they described , 29:47.930 --> 29:50.097 but I would say , General , if they do 29:50.097 --> 29:51.986 that , you have a choice of doing 29:51.986 --> 29:54.290 anything you want . If they fly in a 29:54.290 --> 29:56.401 dangerous position , I would say that 29:56.401 --> 29:58.930 you can , uh , you or your captains can 29:58.930 --> 30:01.097 make the decision as to what they want 30:01.097 --> 30:00.770 to do . 30:05.579 --> 30:09.569 Well , I don't want to talk about that , 30:09.589 --> 30:12.540 but if they do put us in a dangerous 30:12.540 --> 30:14.762 position , they'll be shut down . Thank 30:14.762 --> 30:16.818 you very much , everybody . So we're 30:16.818 --> 30:18.762 going to now cover the G20 and I'm 30:18.762 --> 30:20.818 going to let these people go back to 30:20.818 --> 30:22.873 the Department of War and figure out 30:22.873 --> 30:25.040 how to maintain peace . OK , thank you 30:25.040 --> 30:27.569 very much . Congratulations . Thank you .
