00:00used or destroyed and very unsuccessfully used because we have been able for the most part to
00:07shoot them all down what incredible technology the patriots have been unbelievable and other things
00:14and the laser technology that we have now is incredible it's coming out pretty soon
00:19we're literally lasers will do the work of at a lot less cost do the work of what the patriots
00:26are doing or what other things are doing the situation was very quickly approaching the point
00:32of no return and the united states found it intolerable in my opinion based on what steve
00:39and jared and pete and others were telling me marco so involved that i thought that they were going to
00:45attack us i thought they would if we didn't do this at the time we did it i think they
00:50had in
00:50mind to attack us and if you notice they did something which was very foolish very stupid i
00:55would say they attacked their neighbors and their neighbors were largely neutral missiles t lambs
01:04from the uss stout a ddg-55 destroyer fireballs erupted over healthy controlled regions as fa-18
01:14fighter jets ripped through the skies pounding enemy positions in western yemen the u.s strikes are part
01:23of operation poseidon archer a campaign to eliminate houthi threats to red sea shipping lanes and cripple
01:31their military power fighting iran i i'm not i can't speak to their reasoning on most anything obviously
01:39but um uh it's uh president trump has an approach uh that he is committed to because he wants a
01:45result
01:46uh and uh we are seeing some of those results now and uh we will continue to see more uh
01:52certainly the
01:53uh the houthis are seeing the results of of what we are committed to do to uh make sure that
01:59things
02:00change in this planet uh and uh i i have no doubt iran is september 11 terrorist attacks with a
02:06clear mission
02:07to keep our country safe secure and free the department's work includes counterterrorism
02:12operations disaster recovery physical and cyber protection of critical infrastructure and
02:18immigration enforcement the stakes for the success of the department of homeland security could not be
02:25higher and that's also why granite staters and americans of all stripes have been deeply concerned
02:31about what they've seen from the department of homeland security under this administration people have
02:38been rightfully outraged about the lawlessness from the department's leadership which has not only
02:44resulted in the death of two american citizens but has also led to the hollowing out of agencies like
02:51fema so to senator mullen and my colleagues what happens here in this room today is not nearly as
03:01important as what happens at our border on our strait of hormones and he's not happy with their response
03:10we defend all these countries and then do you have any mind sweepers and they say well would it be
03:19possible for us not to get involved i've been saying it for a long time this is the greatest thing
03:24to come
03:24out of this we spend trillions and trillions of dollars on nato to defend other countries
03:31and i always said but if it ever comes time to defend us they're not going to be there
03:36many of them would not be there and we're going to have to start thinking more wisely in this country
03:45sources tell cnn that u.s officials spent the weekend trying to rally support from foreign allies
03:50hoping that they could announce a coalition soon but today almost in the same breath of calling for help
03:57trump is insisting that he doesn't need anyone else to get the job done
04:02i don't day 18 of the war president trump has upended traditional diplomacy once again lashing out
04:08at america's nato allies saying we no longer need or desire their assistance and we never did over the
04:15past few days the president has been piling pressure on countries to show more support for america's war
04:21efforts but to trump's disbelief his calls have largely been met with reluctance or outright refusal
04:27despite the fact that we helped them so much we have thousands of soldiers in different countries
04:33all over the world and uh they don't want to help us which is amazing i mean amazing i think
04:40nato's
04:41making a very foolish mistake and i i've long said that you know i wonder whether or not nato would
04:47ever
04:47be there for us so this is a this was a great test because we don't need them but they
04:52should have
04:52been there let's speak to chief presenter katrina perry who is at the white house between the people
