Winds are whipping up the wildfires today. The devastation stretches for miles. So many have died or lost everything. This couple survived, only because they jumped into a Swimming Pool and stayed there for hours. Their incredible story, as hope flairs amid the ashes. Lets get to it. Announcer Shepard Smith reporting live from the fox newsdesk. Shepard good friday afternoon. President trump announcing he is not signing off on the Iran Nuclear Deal calling it one of the worst and most onesided transactions of all time. He is not, though, pulling the United States out of the agreement at least not yet. That truly is the headline today. The president s decision sends this issue to congress and the president threatened to terminate the agreement if lawmakers do not come up with a solution. During the speech from the white house today, the president condemned iran for actions going back decades. He said its a matter much National Security and his highest obligation is to protect americans. He once again accused iran of violating the spirit. Agreement. President trump while the United States adhere to our commitment under the deal, the Iranian Regime continues to feel conflict fuel conflict, terror, and turmoil throughout the middle east and beyond. Given the regimes murderous past and present we should not take lightly its sinister vision for the future. Shepard under the 2015 Nuclear Deal World powers agreed to lift sanctions in exchange for iran cutting back on its nuclear program. The president s decision today gives congress 60 days to decide whether to reimpose those sanctions. Analysts say that would essentially cause the deal to fall apart. Congress could also do nothing and leave the agreement in place. Rex tillerson says lawmakers should come up with triggers that could lead to new sanctions in the future. The triggers could include irans Ballistic Missile launches or advances in the nuclear program. Of course candidate donald trump promised to rip up the agreement once he took office. He called it the stupidest deal of all time. Today he suggested the damage is done. President trump the saddest part of the deal for the United States is that all of the money was paid up front which is unheard of rather than at the end of the deal when they have shown theyve played by the rules. Whats done is done. Shepard President Trump announcing he puts new sanctions on irans revolutionary guard the most powerful military force. The white house accuses the revolutionary guard of supporting the syrian dictator and backing militant groups in the middle east. Irans president says his country will continue to stick to the Nuclear Agreement but he warned he could change his mind. The chief White House Correspondent john roberts is live on the north lawn. John . Good afternoon. What is important to note, you noted at the beginning, bears repeating this is not taking the United States out of the joint comprehensive plan of action, the Iran Nuclear Deal. It just sets in place the process in congress to come up with some sort of fix for the jcpoa that satisfies the president. To do nothing or to unilaterally impose sanctioning at the end of the 60 day period. The president made it clear he thinks there are serious flaws in the jcpoa and as well he also thinks that Congress Needs to take action on the other things iran is doing. The revolutionary guard as you pointed out, support for bashar al asaf, support for terrorism around the globe and Irans Nuclear missile Ballistic Missile program as well. Heres how the president put it in terms of what he wants for fixes. President trump these include the deals sunset clauses that in just a few years will eliminate key restrictions on Irans Nuclear program. The flaws in the deal also include insufficient enforcement and near total silence on irans missile programs. The president mentioned that some members of congress were already working on this. Indeed they are. Senators corker, cotton and rubio are coming up with a proposal for a fix that would require automatic snapback of u. S. Sanctions if iran goes under a oneyear breakout period and moves closer to a nuclear weapon. Those restrictions would remain in force indefinitely. It would rid the jcpoa of sunset provisions as they apply to sanctions. Year eight in the agreement, the sunset provisions start to kick in. Become fully in effect in yeesh 15. It bolsters the Atomic Energy commissions powers. Nuclear inspectors werent allowed to get in some iranian sites. Would limit irans advanced centrifuge program. The president made it clear if congress doesnt come up with a fix that he likes, this is in the do nothing category, if congress does nothing, the president says he will act. Listen here. President trump i support these initiatives. However, in the event we are not able to reach a solution working with congress and our allies then the agreement will be terminated. It is under continuous review and our participation can be cancelled by me as president at any time. Thats pretty strident threat the president is making. What this does, shep, even if congress were to do nothing and the president werent to cancer the jcpoa, it allows him to tell you is porters who made good on the Campaign Promise to do something about the Iran Nuclear Deal. He can say i tried, congress didnt come through f congress decides to do nothing. Shepard President Trump unravelling the Affordable Care act. He said the government will stop making subsidy payments to insurers immediately. They bring down copays and deductibles for people with low incomes. The white house says it cant keep making these payments because Congress Never authorized the money. The president telling democrats to call him to cut a deal. President trump now, if the democrats were smart, what theyd do is come and negotiate something where people could really get the kind of healthcare that they deserve being citizens of our great country. Shepard democrats say the president has sub tajed obamacare out of spite. Some states attorney general promise to sue the president for ending the subsidy payment. New yorks democratic attorney general says President Trump has threatened to cut off the subsidies to undermine our Healthcare System and force congress to the negotiating table. Thats unacceptable. Our coalition of states stands ready to sue. Analysts say Insurance Companies will still have to give discounts to low Income Companies so they could make up the money by charging higher premiums. Yesterday the president signed an executive order to make cheaper healthcare plans affordable to more americans, available to more americans. Critics say it would offer less coverage which could lead to higher costs for older and sicker people. Back to john roberts at the white house, more details on this. The president tried to do this legislatively and snookered twice by congress and decided to do it piece by piece by executive order. The president tweeting out, obamacare is a broken mess. Piece by piece well begin the process of giving america the great healthcare it deserves. Obamacare is impleasing. Massive payments to the pet Insurance Companies will stop. Dems should call me to fix. A lot of people have said they wont call to fix it, theyll vilify him for doing this. Josh stein, the attorney general of North Carolina sent out a twice, im suing President Trump for his unlawful and reckless decision to stop payments that help onehalf million carolynians afford healthcare insurance. The president insists the subsidy was lining the pockets of the Insurance Companies. I asked him about that on the way out to the helicopter just a little while ago. Listen here. President trump what its going to do is going to be time to negotiate healthcare thats going to be good for everybody. That money is a you be si di for insurance is a subsidy for Insurance Companies. Look at the stocks, going through the roof. From the past. I dont know about today. But the Insurance Companies made a fortune. That money was a subsidy and almost you could say a payoff to Insurance Companies. And what we have to do is come up with great healthcare. I asked the president if doing this and then the executive order which would allow Small Businesses to ban together in Association Health plans, buy Health Insurance across state lines was just a tactic to bring democrats, put pressure on them and bring them to the negotiating table. He said it wasnt a tactic as such. But if thats the net effect he thinks its good. Shepard President Trump became the first sitting president to speak to the values voters summit. That organization vilifies the Lgbt Community and declares gay tobs a danger to children. The southern important ty law Center Designated it a hate group. What happened tr and why did he attend . It seems to be a pretty appreciative crowd in terms of the reaction for President Trump. He was the first, as a candidate he attended the val ohs voters summit last year. Values voters summit. First sitting tonight do it. Its only been around since 2006. George bush never attended, you wouldnt expect barack obama would. President trump did. He said that he was jumping right into the culture war saying he was going to stop cold the attacks of judeochristian values and. This is a group of people that supported him despite the early attacks on his moral character. He wanted to recognize their support for him and the election campaign. Thats where he was today. He said can i skip it next year. Not sure why he asked that question. But was told no you cant skip it, you have to be there. Well see. Shepard john roberts on the north lawn, thank you. Back to the Iran Nuclear Deal. The european foreign poll sill chief says it will remain in place regardless of the president s condition. She said a group of nations signed off on it. While the president has many powers ilg this deal isnt one of them. It is not a bilateral groo ement. It does not agreement. It does not belong to any single country. It is not up to any single country to terminate it. Shepard he says the International Community will guarantee the iranians stick to the agreement. But this afternoon, israel which was not a party to the deal came out in support of President Trumps move. And the israeli Prime Minister asking other countries to follow the president s lead. Were live at the state department. Rich, leaders from the other countries involved stay they want the United States towns stay it in. Shep, the european allies released a statement, the governments and heads of state of germany, united kingdom, and france have said they are concerned. This statement just coming up, rare joint statement, quote, we stand committed to the jcpoa, Iran Nuclear Deal, and full imtimenttation by all sides. Preserving it is in our shared atsecurity interests. Our governments are committed to ensuring the jcpoa is maintained and interest interest of the jcpoa we need to make sure our wider concerns are addressed. The secretary of state acknowledges that theres probably not going to be a renegotiation of the Iran Nuclear Deal. What hes looking at is whats discussed as a companion deal that would address the concerns that the u. S. Would enter negotiations with its partners on in a. We also have reaction from the other countries in the Iran Nuclear Deal, chien and russia, both saying that its working, that iran is adhering to its side of the deal and all countries should stay in. Russia released a statement saying they regret the u. S. Decision, both say they hope it is a domestic issue and that the u. S. Internationally will stay in the deal. Shepard middle east allies are happy with the president s decision . The middle east eye lies, saudi arabia, say they applaud the decision. They welcome the support announced by donald trump towards iran and aggressive approach, praising his vision in this regard and commitment to work with u. S. Allies in the region to face common challenges. Particularly irans aggressive policies. Saudi arabia has been calling for a while for stronger policies against iran. Shepard rich at the state department, thank you. More on the president s iran decision ahead. Iel speak with the National Security ed etor who says the president s move is mostly symbolic. And can actually help avoid global chaos. Thats coming up from the fox newsdesk. Glad to have you in. Patrick woke up with back pain. But he has work to do. So he took aleve. If hed taken tylenol, hed be stopping for more pills right now. Only aleve has the strength to stop tough pain for up to 12 hours with just one pill. Aleve. All day strong. Decision ahead. Shepard more on President Trumps refusal to certify the Iran Nuclear Deal. He stopped short of withdrawing from the agreement and essentially punted to congress about whether to reimpose sanctions on iran. Michael crawley, National Security director and Senior Correspondent for politico. Hi, shep. Shepard isnt the headline he didnt pull out and it remains what it was . I think youre right. A lot of tough talk. You could be for given if you half ligsenned and reading the tone and vibes come out of him. He hates the deal, iran is an evil malefactor. You could be for given thinking this is a speech about getting rid of the deal. Hes handing to it congress. Hes not going to Push Congress to take steps that would blow up the deal. Lets him get the politics the way he wants them and the way they want them. Shepard as a candidate he was glowing to rip it up. Now the men say we have to have this deal. He cant be seen going back on the campaign pledge. He has a show today and kicks it to congress that will do nothing. Today was all politics . Classic politics. Japanese have kubuki theater, acting that doesnt mean anything. Its all signalling and symbolism. Nothing really changes. This was classic washington kubuki theater. With the possibility that congress will do something unexpected. Conventional wisdom is congress will not take action. It is possible the dynamics could change. Even people who hated the deal at the time it was signed argued against the Obama Administration calling the deal. Iran got things as soon as it was completed and the damage of undoing it now is too great. People who said dont do this two years ago are say gdoesnt make sense to blow it up. Shepard is that because theres not a better idea . Exactly, we would be going it alone, the you are a pea lies are angry as the president s rhetoric, the fact that the president jeopardized the deal. Bear in mind, iran got a bunch of benefits on the deal. As soon as it was agreed to, released a lot of tense of billions of dollars in frozen assets the iranians got their hands o you cant claw it back. Its been reported that jim mattis and others said to the president , we have one kind of Brewing Nuclear Crisis with north korea and cant have another one on the plate while we deal with that one. Shepard we will get a new news cycle in a few hours, then tweets tomorrow and will have a new news cycle and this fades away and congress doesnt act and its nothing . Quite possibly. It is possible congress will surprise us our that iran will lash out, theyre angry about the smeech. High best bet is the scenario you described. Shepard he did not declare the revolutionary guard a terror group. That is something iran said would be an act of war, he didnt do it. He did stop short of it. Again, another example, if you were going by the rhetoric, you might think he had. Hes imposing new sanctions on them, designated certain sanctions on them that have to do with terrorism. Different from formally listing them as what the state department calls a foreign terrorist organization. They have a list, al qaeda on it. Not putting the Iranian Revolutionary guard corps, military stob establishment ta controls a large part of the economy. Focused where barack obama didnt. He talked about the reformers and moderates. People question whether they are true moderates. Trump was rebranding them, reminding people this corrupt military establishment, they do terrorism, terrible things. Did not follow through by listing them as a foreign terrorist organization. Shepard thank you, out of time, grate to see you. Emotional and fiery News Conference in las vegas.
