00:00Thank you, Caroline. Two questions, one on TSA, one on Iran. On TSA, for ordinary Americans watching the briefing, how
00:08long until everything goes back to normal at airports after the President's action? And then on Iran, on the time
00:15frame, President Trump initially said about four weeks. Secretary of State Rubio on Friday reportedly said it might be another
00:21two to four. Is two to four the current ballpark that the administration is thinking?
00:25Secretary of State, with respect to the timeline, again, the President, Commander-in-Chief, the Pentagon has always stated four
00:31to six weeks estimated timeline for Operation Epic Fury. We're on day 30 today. So again, you do the math
00:38on how much longer we, the Pentagon needs to fully achieve the objectives of Operation Epic Fury, which I will
00:44reiterate, destroy the Iranian Navy, destroy their ballistic missiles, dismantle their missile and drone production infrastructure, significantly weaken their proxies,
00:55throughout the course of this operation, and then, of course, preventing Iran from ever obtaining a nuclear weapon. To your
01:01first question, Stephen, about TSA and airports, nothing will be truly normal again until Democrats do the right thing to
01:07fund this agency fully. Again, the President has stepped in in the meantime to do what's right to end this
01:14crisis that we've had at air travel and at airports across the country in the meantime.
01:19But again, Congress needs to come back. Democrats need to fund the Department of Homeland Security so we can formally
01:24and fully get these great employees paid long into the future.
