00:00United States of America is not engaging with both sides equally in this war to bring it to
00:04an end. Secretary Rubio and Special Envoy Winkoff and the president himself, that they are favoring
00:09one side over the other. I have watched as the president and his team have worked around the
00:15clock overnight with both sides on endless phone calls. Think about what happened with Israel and
00:20Gaza. There were a lot of doubters and we got the hostages out and this president secured a peace
00:25deal. I saw a lot of misinformation and rumors and allegations against people in this building,
00:30endless meetings to try to bring this war to a close and any suggestion otherwise is a complete
00:35misunderstanding of the facts. People who are pushing their own agenda or maybe people who don't
00:40want to see this war come to an end. I don't know. Maybe they're profiting off of it. As for where we
00:45are, I spoke with Secretary Rubio at length. I spoke with the president as well. Everybody inside feels
00:50optimistic about what happened and transpired yesterday in Geneva. Secretary Rubio, Special
00:55Envoy Winkoff, the whole team really worked through the points of that 28-point peace plan
01:01that the United States authored with input from both sides, the Russians and the Ukrainians.
01:06And ultimately, the vast majority of these points have been agreed upon. The Ukrainians have worked on
01:11language with us together. And you heard that from their delegation directly yesterday. So we feel as
01:17though we're in a very good place. Of course, we have to make sure that all of these points are
01:22agreed to. And then, of course, we're going to have to make sure the other party in this war,
01:25the Russians, agree to them as well. But I think the president deserves a great deal of credit for
01:29the amount of energy and effort he's put into trying to bring these two sides to an end of this
01:34war. He wants to see this killing stop. As for any deadlines, he wants to see this end as soon as
01:39possible. The idea that the United States of America is not engaging with both sides equally in this war
01:45to bring it to an end is a complete and total fallacy. And I saw a lot of misinformation and
01:50rumors and allegations against people in this building, such as Secretary Rubio and Special
01:55Envoy Winkoff and the president himself, that they are favoring one side over the other.
02:00That could not be further from the truth. I have watched as the president and his team
02:04have worked around the clock overnight with both sides on endless phone calls, endless meetings to
02:10try to bring this war to a close. And any suggestion otherwise is a complete misunderstanding of the
02:16facts. It's coming from people who have no idea what they're talking about or people who are pushing
02:20their own agenda or maybe people who don't want to see this war come to an end. I don't know.
02:25Maybe they're profiting off of it. Maybe they benefit from it in some way. But nobody in this building
02:29benefits from war. We want to see this war come to an end. And that's what the president and his team
02:33are proudly working to do. And I think the critics should just take a step back and think about what
02:38happened with Israel and Gaza. There were a lot of doubters and we got the hostages out. And this
02:42president secured a peace deal that still exists and is ongoing today. So everyone should just
02:47respect the work this administration is doing and watch the process unfold.
