00:00great to see this morning ambassador so obviously um you know for years we've grown accustomed to
00:05hearing um you know death to america and uh the the interest that iran has in taking out uh
00:13u.s leaders what is new this is happening logged and loaded trump threatens iran with missiles if
00:20they try to kill him kill trump yeah you about this death threat to president trump that we heard
00:28from the israelis first of the threat is real oh my god not some theoretical idea remember in march we
00:38had an irgc um coordinated uh operative that was convicted in the united states and he's matt
00:47u.s ambassador to nato okay let's listen to him president trump in spite of this in spite of two
00:53previous attempts on his life is showing strength not fear and you know by saying you know we are
01:00going to bomb you into oblivion i think that sets the the tone very damn bro wallester journal says
01:07israel wants of iranian lot to kill trump they literally wanted to kill trump correctly and you
01:15know really admire his personal courage to go out there every single day and uh do the job of the
01:21american president and i you know kudos to him yeah to that point i want to play a clip of
01:26protesters
01:27chanting death to america at the khamenei's uh funeral the clip is from iranj okay
01:47protestors at khamenei's funeral chant the death to america death to israel obviously uh this has been a
01:56a long-term goal of iran but it does kind of make me wonder whether the degree to which iranian
02:03officials have miscalculated this president obviously the president is you know it's the
02:08summer before an election he would like to wrap this thing up they're playing games in the straight
02:13and president trump is striking back um that's why they have it killed trump banner seen at khamenei's
02:20funeral you see this is do you think that they have miscalculated uh his willingness to carry out
02:27this fight despite the fact that we have elections coming up yeah i think they have but at the same
02:33time he's demonstrating peace through strength in action you know by returning fire not only a
02:39little bit by 90 strikes to military targets after the not only 90 170 total right now the numbers have
02:47increased attacks uh to shipping in the strait it really demonstrates i think the united states is
02:54serious about this and obviously iran is trying to come back to the table and negotiate it but you
03:00know this is where president trump continues to hold all the cards in this situation and will continue
03:06whatever is happening trump threatens iran with missiles okay okay come from a position of strength yeah
03:13uh turning to nato here's president trump talking about the progress that's been made on nato defense
03:19spending particularly among european countries watch okay they're making great progress some have truly
03:26answered the call and others are making big changes and will be answering the call trump is talking about
03:32european countries we take it in over a trillion dollars a year toward defense and that's a tremendous amount of
03:41money it's a big up they were two percent they were actually at one percent i got him to two
03:46percent then i
03:47wanted to get him to five oh wow and uh we got up to five from secures defense investment from
03:54nato allies last time
03:57okay when president trump first started this effort to try to get countries to pay up more for their own
04:03defense democrats here in this in the u.s and then also uh some of our allies in europe attacked
04:09him for
04:10warning to why only this man is wearing white suits that's why that's what this man is showing trump
04:15trump look he's white soos everybody's flag is white undermine and destroy nato now you have the nato
04:23secretary general talking about this influx of money calling it the trump trillion uh in terms of the
04:30funding that is going to help boost defense there um how do how do you see all of this yes
04:36please well
04:37charlie the trump okay man the trump effect nato allies investment jump okay since 2025 20 percent
04:44on spending increase and 120 billion dollars on total spending okay fact as it relates to our allies is
04:52real and it's measurable uh we saw 150 billion dollars almost spent on hardware on real capabilities with
05:01more capable allies meaning stronger nato and it means that uh we can continue to turn over the
05:08conventional defense here in europe to our that's what happening in europe they have defense and
05:13everybody is doing all those things you get that all right allies and that's frees up the american
05:20military to focus on other threats that we face globally as you know and you know president trump it
05:27continues to lead uh this alliance and it's having real impacts and the also the other good news is
05:34the a lot of this money is being spent in the u.s yes the money is being expanded in
05:40u.s there as well
05:41that's why it's a big one on u.s defense industry and supports u.s jobs so this is a
05:47win-win and president
