• 0:30
  Speaker 2: I got about seven minutes here, with which Larry Little
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: departure from the next. We did Creig Carton before Rich.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: We'll do the other WAA and Legend Joe Boningo after.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: But I want to get to Iran. My daughter Ava
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: is still in Tel Aviv this morning. She's there till Tuesday,
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: and I'm supposed to be going to Israel a week
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: from today for a nice trip. But you know what
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: happens as soon as the US hits Iran, they usually
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: strike back at Israel. They haven't yet the last day
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: or so, Brain I guess was Jordan Kuwait.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: Let me get to Rich Lowry. Rich, good morning, buddy,
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: How are you good? How are you I'm okay.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not throwing my daughter's an issue right
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: now with what's been going on here. But the president said.
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: One next thing, yeah, any one thing that I'm not
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: an NBA guy, so I just watched at the end.
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: But something that annoyed me the TV broadcast they didn't
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: even mention that on an abbi is I you say
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: his name, OG's block of the potential layup like at
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: ten seconds, which was almost as huge a play.
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: No, we got it.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: We got the Breen call on that. Well, I'm going
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: to play it after you're done, but it was a
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: bonehead played by the arrowin box. When you've got possession
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: of the basketball and the lead, you hold onto the
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: ball and get fouled.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: You don't take a shot, but.
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: You had the layup and it's the most important block
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: in the NBA Finals since Lebron James and that y.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah. No, he did it on both ends of the court.
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: They didn't even replay it in the TV broadcast.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: That's weird. You know, we've got the audio here this morning.
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: But he did.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: He blocked a shot on defense and then he got
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: the game winning tipping on an offense. So both sides
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: of the court og up things.
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: Seconds in the NBA Finals in a very long time.
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: Probably so, Yeah, probably so.
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: But getting back to Ron for a second, Trump is
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: threatening them again and hearing some people say this could
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: be back to four or five hundred strikes a day.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: We hit twenty different spots in Iran last night. But
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: I'm going to speak on behalf of a lot of Americans,
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: and no one loves Trump more than me, which you
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: know that I adore the guy. I love them, but
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: this is getting silly, and you know his threats, they're
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: less and less meaningful. To be honest, if he's going
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: to do it, just do it. Do you think this
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: is it? This is the time.
• 2:33
  Speaker 4: I think it's not it until he really thinks there's
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: absolutely no alternative. Clearly he doesn't want to start a
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: major fighting again. He's desperate for a deal, But the
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: problem is the Iranians realize that. So that's why he
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: might need to resort to a big bombing campaign again.
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: But he really really doesn't want to do it.
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: Yes, Bud, whether he wants to do it or not,
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: they're not going to do a deal.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: And if they do a deal, they're never going to
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: comply to comply if doing Yeah.
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: I think the deal they're gonna want money. I think
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: it's it's not just reopening the Straight, you know. In
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: my mind's I'm like, okay, at this point, I'll just
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: take a trade of the blockade for reopening the Straight.
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: But I don't think they're gonna do it, you know.
• 3:11
  Speaker 4: I think they're gonna say, we get sanctions relief and
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: we'll reopen the Straight and toll the Straight. So my
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: guess is it's it's a terrible deal that's on the table.
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: You probably can't even believe in it. Right the original ceasefire,
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: they're supposed to reopen this trade and they didn't do it.
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: So we're in a I think it's a real uncomfortable
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: spot for the President, who would prefer to move on,
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: but is in this stuck in this middle space.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: Stuck is that word I've been using for the better
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: part of a month. You just used it too, And
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: can't give them money They've proven in the past, you know,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Obama did it and Biden did it, and all that
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: money went to the terot proxies comas Rispola.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: The jutis, you know, so you can't give these people
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: money for the straight.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: You could just kind of walk away, say we're not
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: giving you sanctions relief, we're not giving you a palace
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: of cash. We destroyed a bunch of stuff, and maybe
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: we'll see you a couple of years later if we
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: got to do it again. But it's really hard for
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: Trump to walk away if they have control of the straight.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: How terrifying was it for you to watch Graham Platner
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: celebrate a couple of nights ago.
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: Well, it's probably very good for Republican chances to hold
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: the Senate. I kind of gave him pretty good odds
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: of beating Susan Collins when all it was was the
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: Reddit stuff and the tattoo, all of which are terrible
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: and show the guys to poisonous toad. But the sex
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: thing and the abusive relationships with girlfriends, when you get
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: into that kind of stuff, there's more where that came from.
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: So I expect other shoes to drop. He's obviously lying
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: about the women, he's lying about the sex thing, and
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: he's lying about the tattoo. He knew what the tattoo
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: was from day one. He thought it was cool and tough,
• 4:44
  Speaker 4: and one of his girlfriends, who knows nothing of former girlfriends,
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: knows nothing about military affairs with telling her girlfriends, you know,
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: like a year ago. Oh it's a totin Cough told me.
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: Obviously he knew that the guy is the worst, and
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: he's twisted. There's something really sick about him. We've had
• 5:00
  Speaker 4: unfaithful Senate candidates before, unimpressive senate candidates before. This is
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: a guy you want to have nothing to do with.
• 5:05
  Speaker 4: Just saying that he would rape someone who broke into
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: his house to establish dominance. That's like kind of a
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: bad Quinton Tarantino movie.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: And yet all these Democrats endorse him. You got you
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: get this more on Corey Booker, who again was just
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: shweating Bib Natanyau yesterday called Bbe a horrible person, which
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: is ridiculous. Okay, you may disagree with some of the politics.
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: Let me say it again, folks, Israel is not committing genocide,
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: you stupid pass throuds.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: They're not.
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Okay, So you got Corey Booker calling bb Notatanelle a
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: horrible person. But yet Graham plattin or he's a good guy.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: You want to explain that one to me.
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and they didn't have to nominate him. They were
• 5:43
  Speaker 4: defending him. On all this stuff when they could have
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: nominated someone else, you know, two weeks before the primary, right,
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: but they felt they had no alternative because the other
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: candidate had effectually dropped out Janet Mills. Yeah, and they'll
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: they'll twist themselves into it.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: Well, Barney loved them too, Trump, Berniey loved them too.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: Sanders loved this guy too. He's another life. Were you
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: surprised to see what ended up happening with Nancy Mace
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: and that governor run. She gets blown out by Evett,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: who Trump endorsed. Anyway, that whole Nancy May story pretty
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: wild in South Carolina.
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean she was all over the map because
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: originally she was a huge never Trumper, right, he made
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: me look mild by comparison, and then then she became
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: you know, ultra maga and then she went went the
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: Marjorie Taylor Green route with the Epstein's thing. And I
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: think we're the only two people in the United States
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: who think that the Epstein thing was idiotic from the beginning.
• 6:31
  Speaker 4: And you never should release the file. And in South Carolina,
• 6:34
  Speaker 4: if you're if you're not with Trump, Trump's not with you,
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: you know you're you're going to be in a very
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: bad space. So you know, I like her. I know
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: you've had her on a lot, but kind of kind
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: of predictable.
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: What happened, Yeah, Lindsay Graham did get the win. Now
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: they're talking. I did see something yesterday. You you went
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: on Box News talking about potential twenty twenty eight Republican
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: candidates for president.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: Then you know J. D.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: Bantz obviously in Marco Rubio, but he had a some
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: other names in there, like Ted Cruz, and he edited
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: in Glenn Younkin. And he seems to think that Ron
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: DeSantis is going to run again.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: I think all those guys want to run again. I
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: think Ted, if there's any opening, absolutely will run again.
• 7:13
  Speaker 4: Yunkin you know what else is he doing? No offense,
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: But I think there's a chance he'll run. And certainly
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: DeSantis has a taste in his mouth as well. I
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: think if you just parachute DeSantis in the presidency, he'd
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: be a fantastic president. He's in a great governor. He's
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: a substantive guy, he's smart, takes no bs. But you know,
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: the people skills are a little lacking, and that's just
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: something you can't get around in politics. So I still
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: heavily favored JD.
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, me too.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: Rich are amazing as always, and know you got to
• 7:41
