>> well, that is exactly right.t the biden administration came into office convincengd that thh were going to fix the middle east and that the trump administration had screwed up. the centerpiece of their effort was, we will cozy up to iran t inc. at them back into the deal. it turns out if you allow iran to sell billions of dollars of oil, peace does not break outllr across the middle east but instead, billions of dollars of oil revenue, what happens as hamas gets millions of dollars toolla commit terrorist attacks againscommt israel. hezbollah in lebanon get lots ou money. shiite missile groups taking shots at soldiers, diplomats and iraq and syria get on the gravy train is wealth of the houthis as well.t ir the key fact here is iran as the puppet master pulling all of the strings, iran is trying to coordinate acamp regionwide camn two, one, destroy the jewishnder
follows iranian seizure of crude oil ship earlier today where that seem to change the tone of things and the fro trajectory of things from this administrationn standpoint. but we don't have a commander-in-chief, at least that we can se ae here they have called the lid at the white house, which concerns a number of the guests tonight, tulsi gabbard. >> laura, my greatest concern as a soldier who serves in the arme reserve, bedroom for over 20 years and multiple deployments, two different war zones is how shortsighted, incompetent and lack of caring this biden/harriy administration has for lack of security and the american people. y are doing here now appears to be not well thought out at all otionr considering te ramifications of what this will be and how it serves national security interest.at t just like they didn't think through the ramifications of few taking the houthis off of the terrorist list a few years ago.
should be eliminated after we have been seeing the failure of- all of the strakes tbao deter te iranian-backed troops against iraq and elsewhere. has they have taken out they are boats but that will not do it. this has every chance to escalate at a high level becauso the houthis said if we attackan them on their territory they will start attacking american and american interest in the region so what is our plan for that? this is a potential strike thath could draw us into war.t i think the president owes it ti the american people to make sure that we do not go into a war. i don't but i would like to heah from the white house what thew plan is and how thisan poll is american law and there constitution, which it doesn't. >> laura: calling a lid while launching military strikes with the u.k. in the middle east seems to be like mine mind boggle outrageous. peter mentioned this but among

distant fight that is not ours. people are so concerned with what is happening that it isng a affecting us here appear this is why president trump long agoon pitted a election strategy against biden. he wants you to think about the two presidencies and ensure economy, energy, border but this particularly fox town hall, noti starting a new war. we call terrorists terrorists and we want hostages home.what when you look at iran who find so much of what we are talking about in this world, it is so scary. when you look at iran, they wera starting to make deals for the time we left the administration. >> laura: empower them. >> 3 million barrels a day and you know where it is going. you see on the screen where itiw is going. laura and mollie hemingway come at the attribute questions,dd letrump is beating biden and hah plan who cares about the middlea class and who has a vision and experience but also the major issues, security, portability,ty
