Part Of The Problem
Waltz is Lying
You know, Laura, I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but of all the people out there, somehow this guy who has lied about the president, who has lied to Gold Star families, lied to their attorneys and gone to Russia hoax, gone to just all kinds of lengths. to lie and smear the president of the United States, and he's the one that somehow gets on somebody's contact and then gets sucked into this group.
Part Of The Problem
Waltz is Lying
We have people. We have people. No, look, this was this is a great group. The president has a great team. This is not your team.
Part Of The Problem
Waltz is Lying
No, no, no. These were principals and a couple and a couple of staff that were coordinating, as you saw, having a policy discussion as we went forward. And then just in the days before, what was an incredible strike.
Part Of The Problem
Waltz is Lying
Not only did we take out people that the Biden team never could, that we took out headquarters, missile caches, and actually one of the leaders of the Houthi organization, we've since taken out several since. And And that's what they don't want to talk about. They don't want to talk about the success here. They don't want to talk about the hostages getting released.
Part Of The Problem
Waltz is Lying
They don't want to talk about the Black Sea ceasefire that we just put in place today as the president ends the largest land war in Europe or the border or the fact that Panama just kicked China out of the canal and success after success after success. All right, let's pause it again. It's embarrassing.
Part Of The Problem
Waltz is Lying
I take responsibility. I built the group. But look, that's the part that we have to figure out. And that's the part that we were embarrassing, yes. But Pete and I are veterans. We know these operations. He has been an excellent Secretary of Defense. And this was an operation that, I mean, it amazes me.
Part Of The Problem
Waltz is Lying
I guess the Democrats were fine to leave all the sea lanes shut down, were fine to have destroyers fired on dozens of times by this terrorist group, and fine to have Iran keep supplying them missiles. That was OK. The president takes decisive action. And now we're seeing some real success in taking down their air defenses, opening the sea lanes, taking out their leadership.
Part Of The Problem
Waltz is Lying
lied about Russia, lied about Gold Star families, lied about even as last, what, year, in terms of the president paying for the family of a Gold Star family that he absolutely did. I mean, lie after lie after lie.
Part Of The Problem
Waltz is Lying
I mean- Yeah, but you're lying right now. We care about the mainstream media.
Part Of The Problem
Waltz is Lying
What I care about is staying focused on mission, accomplishing the president's agenda, getting these things done, cleaning up the Biden messes from Afghanistan to Ukraine to the Houthis to the border to China all over South America to the Arctic where we're completely exposed to NATO that's not paying up. And the president has had success after success.
Part Of The Problem
Waltz is Lying
We made a mistake. We're moving forward, and we're going to continue to knock it out of the park for this president. Look at what he's gotten done in under two months. And I didn't even get going on the economy, on trade, or all of those other pieces.
Part Of The Problem
Waltz is Lying
Look, I mean, I would prefer, certainly as the president was saying today, if we could all sit in a steel-line-led room and have all of these conversations, I certainly want our deliberations to stay confidential. This was an encrypted app that the CIA had on sitting there as John Ratcliffe was confirmed and walked into the building from the prior administration. It's on other agency apps.
Part Of The Problem
Waltz is Lying
And so, no, of course I don't want it all out there. because these were conversations back and forth that you should be able to have. All right, let's just leave it there.

I mean, I don't mean to be pedantic here, but how did the number... Have you ever had somebody's contact that shows their name and then you have somebody else's number there?

Trump 2.0's Biggest Scandal Yet
Right. You've got somebody else's number on someone else's contact. So, of course, I didn't see this loser in the group. It looked like someone else. Now, whether he did it deliberately or it happened in some other technical mean is something we're trying to figure out.

Is Trump's Honeymoon Over?
Who does he think is more responsible for the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Putin or Zelenskyy? Well, look, his goal, Peter, is to bring this war to an end, period. Some of the rhetoric coming out of Kyiv, frankly, and insults to President Trump were unacceptable. Who's to say?

No idea. Wouldn't know him if I bumped into him, if I saw him in a police lineup. Do now. Knew him by reputation about lying about the president over and over again. What I can tell you for certain... Certainly wasn't reaching out or talking to him at all.

We're going to get to the bottom of it. We have I just talked to Elon on the way here. We've got the best technical minds looking at how this happened. But I can tell you, I can tell you for 100 percent. I don't know this guy. I know him by his horrible reputation, and he really is the bottom scum of journalists. And I know him in the sense that he hates the president, but I don't text him.

We need a leader that can deal with us, eventually deal with the Russians, and end this war. And if it becomes apparent that President Zelensky's either personal motivations or political motivations are divergent from ending the fighting in his country, then I think we have a real issue on our hands.

President Trump is determined to move very quickly. We just had a head of state phone call, the first in years. And here we are less than a week later at the highest level of the U.S. and Russian government. And we expect to continue to drive that pace.
