FOXNEWSW The Daily Briefing With Dana Perino June 17, 2019

Jennifer griffins life the pentagon. Jennifer, ive been dying to ask you how iran is responding to allegations from the United States that iran was the one behind the tanker attacks . First there was a tweet this morning from iranian officials saying they had arrested a cyber sell of cia agents inside iran and an unconfirmed claim at this point. Then there was a press conference given by irans Atomic Agency held that irans heavy water reactor in eric where they announced they would soon be enriching uranium two levels closer to that needed for military grade use adding that tehran will no longer abide by commitments under the nuclear deal. When we say we will not be doing that anymore we mean we will not offer heavy water on International Markets a commitment based on the situation. The iranians have given until july 7th to lift sanctions or they say they will go beyond the limits set to enrich the uranium stockpile they agreed to under the nuclear deal. Dana is how will the United States make its case that iran is behind the tank or toxic . Is that the u. N. Security council or where it is we expect some relief of declassified images and a timeout from bomb disposal experts as some allies continue to question whether iran was the culprit in last weeks u. S. Tanker attacks. The u. S. Is going to release more intelligence that proves that the revolutionary guard corps carried out the attacks. This was on the golf of home on side of the strait of hormuz. There are lots of data and lots of evidence and the world will come to see much of it. U. S. Central command said there is no execute order for u. S. Naval vessels to export commercial shipping tankers through through the strait of hormuz but did not rule out other possibilities. The uss bainbridge are providing overwatch as one of the two tankers destroyed by sanctions on thursday is towed toward the united arab emirates. One of those ships has been told safely enter you waters. Secretary of state mike pompeo is traveling today later for briefing. Dana for more on this, adam kinzinger. Lets get your take on this. Have you seen any of this evidence . In your mind to come is there any doubt that iran was behind it . I have seen what you have seen but there is no doubt to me that people are going to doubt the people that are being fed, the russian trolls on twitter. The reigning trolls on twitter, people that are in the blame America First crowd,. It did me to repass goff said such incidents can underline the foundation of the World Economy which is why its hardly possible to accept basis accusations and the situation. We always are just sober appraisal of the situation and to wait for more or less convincing evidence to appear. What do you think of that . I think when it comes to russia, whatever they say, usually the opposite is true. Just look at the patterns in venezuela, syria and the ukraine, they claim they are not even in the ukraine so this is standard for the russians. If we have evidence and im sure that we do, ive heard a lot of it exists, and we know its iran, we need to accept that because thats obviously the case. Once that comes out, people wont believe if anything stares them right in the face and i think if we put this redline down that says even if we dont respond to the last two attacks, this cannot keep going. Bottom line dana this is a failing country thats lashing out. They have only about onetenth of the oil experts that they did, and a strong competent country with a Bright Future does not attach minds to it Desperate Oil futures. Dana they are not even going to try to pretend to be part of the nuclear deal from 2015 and in some ways i think i ran is trying to show its capacity to disrupt International Markets without actually having the United States and israel launched a direct attack against them to muddy the waters. It feels like they are going right back to where they were. I think thats an accurate way to say that. I think they have disrupted the international order, and we are seeing investments in other countries and thats actually receded a lot but i think right now its going to take patients to understand they are obviously very desperate. They dont want to provoke us into military action. Is it your opinion that the president needs to come to congress before he would take any action if it were to come to that . I dont think so. I think the congresses responsibility is to make these kind of micro decisions even if its something according to the war powers act, basically he has 60 days to act. So i dont think every military action needs to come to congress because nothing would ever get done. Dana can i ask you about one other thing . It was International Relations story this weekend in New York Times. This is where you had david sanger the reporter saying that the United States, our military has been putting some sort of malware into the electric rate of the russians. I think we are stepping up our attacks on russia and we should. This Disinformation Campaign and the 2016 election, i think i dont know who linked the story, its more in the classified space. I think its irresponsible. There was maybe a little bit of a preview. Listen to john bolton, the president S National Security advisor last week. The purpose of which is to say to russia and anybody else engaged in Cyber Operations against us, you will pay a price if we find that you are doing this. Dana if we talk about National Security matters that are classified, your thoughts . Obviously i cant confirm or deny any of that but i will say this. If this is the truth to embarrass the president and try to get him to react, and generalities, we absently do need to be on the offense against russia. What they are doing to us, both discrediting our election system and doing it with chaos, they need to know whether this story is true or not they need to know that the United States is on offense and will protect our allies and basically anything else, and maybe we will actually start doing this. Dana thank you. A a pretty big story from Todays Campaign trail mix. Mayor Pete Buttigieg returns to south bend. Plus a look at the latest fox news poll. Peter doocy with the live look in washington. He said that he thinks he could be president had to head. He is still going for a couple minutes and we are waiting for more headlines but joe biden has not really come to events like this where he takes the stage for a few minutes and he is immediately followed by another contender who is trying to replace him as a front runner. Biden is generally the only headliner. In the next few minutes he will be followed by Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and connelly. Harwich. He said something in his official capacity as south bends mayor and that is the aftermath of the Deadly Police involved shooting. His campaign has not been attracting as much attention as anyone else. 7 million in april, which means he made as much in this month as he did the quarter before. The fox news poll says hes tied with Kamala Harris and at one point behind Elizabeth Warren. Miles ahead of them all is joe biden with 32 . They all got leads though with a hypothetical headtohead matchup. Kamala harris also up by just one. Elizabeth warren stretches her lead to two points and joe bide joe biden, they are hypothetical in the Democratic Party is not going to have an official nominee with an official running mate to challenge President Trump and mike pence have another 13 months in the convention. We will take it all under advisement, thank you peter doocy. President trump is working his election campaign. Plus military action in a busy oil shipping cord or the middle east. We will have more.

Secretary of state mike pompeo is saying iran is to blame for retaliation. Iran for 40 years has engaged in these kind of attacks. Ronald reagan had to reflag a lot of vessels going through the persian gulf and ultimately take military action against iran in 1988. These unprovoked attacks wanted military strike. Dana it could i play for you also charlie these two other things . Senator mitch mcconnell, the senator majority leader weighed in on this with fox friends. And they are fortunate pursuing and thats what they see them striking out with his attacks on vessels in the persian gulf. The sanctions are really hurtin hurting. Dana and Pete Buttigieg, he weighed in, as he served. We learned in our country how hard it is to end the war. We have to make sure that we dont start one. President trump clearly mcconnell is exactly right and iran is clearly desperate which sort of raises reminds us of all the questions that a lot of us had when the Obama Administration made that deal with iran and the first place. They were on the ropes and they still are. And its a good thing. They are very bad actors. And the comments by mike pompeo who, all options are on the table that those are kind of the answers you give to everything. And everything is always on the table. The thing that tom cotton said it, what did apparently warrants a military strike and thats not the same as saying dana that there is going to get one. And they are saying, they are very skeptical. And you know, military access, and a whole lot more. Dana secretary pompeo is on his way to centcom so we might even get more today. Maybe they were trying to rescue a mine or something. But, i still tended to believe mike pompeo and the u. S. Military right now. Tomorrow President Trump will officially kick off his election campaign. Donald trump is sending out a war chest, sparking nine regions crucial and has a Sprawling Network of volunteers who have been rigorous. I wonder what you think about that, one of the great things about his First Campaign was that it wasnt the established. He wasnt the incumbent and, it runs so much better as a marauder from the outside. He appealed to so many people, people, dana is kept those people energized and added more. It was a much more difficult posture and operate from mike, and, i think a lot of people overstate that. Theres a lot of excitement. Dana i was going to get a quick take on this before we go. He said, trump is perverting the Democratic Party and whether his youth gives them pause, and you know what some of them like, the idea of terms precedent see being bracketed, and the complaint was democrats are so focused on just beating trump that they are not actually painting the big message of what they want to say. I would actually argue the greatest strength that President Trump has right now is not that the old insurgent outsider thing or the incumbency. Its a fact that if you take away trump and his style and look at the issues, he wins in a landslide. Whether its immigration, at some of the things we like a lot of these things too. A lot of democrats agree. But we dont admit it. Fox gets exclusive access to the chinese client of blacklisted to the government. The first survivor of alzheimers disease is out there.

The ousted Muslim Brotherhood leader was in court today for a hearing on espionage charges when he collapsed. He was rushed to the hospital and died shortly after. He was thrown out of office by the military following mass protests throughout the country. He was 37. We have a wide range of very important issues in the way china in the United States interact for an awfully long time. We allowed china to take advantage of us on trade and another other ways of President Trump has pushed back very strongly against them. Dana mike pompeo backing up the president s tough stand on china, and this comes as huawei, the Chinese Telecom giant is identified aS National Security list and blacklisted by the u. S. Government and our response to allegations that it could be used for spying. We got exclusive access to huaweis headquarters. So glad you were able to join us, tell us what you learned. Thanks for having us. Its interesting, huaweis has always denied the allegations but it seems that those denials were taken to a whole new level. The company is arguing that he really couldnt spy even if it wanted to. It was a 45 minute drive from downtown to the Corporate Headquarters and a rare opportunity for an American Television crew to tour the facility. We were met there by an englishman, the huawei vp, and we knew by the extension of the invitation, they had a story they wanted us to here. My question is this. Why are we here . Weve always been very open and transparent about inviting journalists to come and visit huawei. I think there is a lot of misunderstandings and lots of misinformation. There is no connection between huawei and the chinese government. That brought us to the most sensitive of topics, whether huawei can facilitate. 170 countries throughout the world and many of those countries are now deploying their 5g networks. We work very closely with those partners to build out the hardware. But at all times the Telecom Customers and partners are completely in charge of all of them. Is no need to but i want to be clear in this point, theres no need for you to come up but could you . We could not do it without the permission of the telecom company. Could you do it without their permission, is it technically possible . To my knowledge its not technically possible. Then it was on to the research and Development Center where we were given a demonstration on the rollout of 5g. The huawei executiv
