And itll be interesting to see if bret that sounds like a sf of the Union Address with a list of priorities or it soundss more emotional, you would think after that trip he just came back from in israel. Hell be touching on some of those themes. Lets go livn rael. E now to the ovalates. Office and the president of the United States, joe biden. Good my fellow americans,n facing an Inflection Point de historyg nflectio. One of those moments where the decisions we make todaciy are going to determine the future for decades to come. Eaesthats what id like to talk with you about tonight. No, earlier this morningthis m, i returned from israel to tell me im the First American president to travel there during the war. I met with thewar. Minister and members of his cabinet. And most movingly, i met with israelis who had personally lived through Horrific Horros r of, the attaco by hamas on the 7th of october. More than 1300 people slaughtered in israel, including at least 32 american citizens, scores of innocents from infants to the elderly, grandparentsre, israelis, americans taken hostage. And as i told the families of americans being held captive by hamas, were Pursuinghostag T Avenue to bring their loved ones home. As president ur, there is noe higher priority for me than the safety of american soldierte. The Terrorist Group Hamas unleashed pure, Unadulterateld D in the world. But sadly, the jewish people know perhaps than the anyone, that there is no limit to the depravity people when they want to inflict pain on others. And israelothers , i saw people who are strong, determined, resilient, and also angry,n in shock and in deep, deep paisn. I also spoke with president abbas, the palestinian authority, and reiterated that the United States remains statitted to the Palestinian People right to dignity and to selfdetermination. Hama the actions of Hamas Terrorists dont take that right away. Like so many other, im heartbrokeo n by the tragic loss of palestinian life, including an explosion at the hospital in gaza, which was not done by the israelis d. We mourn every innocent lifeis lost. We mourn eve cant ignore the hy of innocent palestinians who only wane innot to in peace and have an opportunity. You know, the assault on israel echoes nearly 20 months of war, tragedy and brutality inflicted on the people of ukraine. People that were very badly hurt since putin launched his all out invasion. Weve not forgotten the mass we h. The bodies found buried, signs of torture, as a weapon by theh russians and thousands and thousands ukrainian children forcibly taken into russia, stolen from parents. Its sick. Dimairs, putin represent different threats, but they share this in common. They both want to completely annihilate neighboring democracy, completely annihilated hamas. This stated purpose for existing is a destruction of the state of israel and the murder of jewishneighbor people. Hamas does not represent the Palestinian People. Has uses Palestinian Civilians as Human Shields and innocent palestinianeatl families are suffering greatly because of that. Meanwh meanwhile, putin denies ukraine has or ever haild real statehoo. It claims the soviet Union Created ukraine. Ie and just two weeks ago, he told the world that if the united and our allies withdraw and if the United States withdraw, all our allies will as welhel. Military support for ukraine would have, quote, a weak to live. But were not withdrawing. Weknow these conflicts can seem far away. Its natural to ask why does this matter to america . So let me share with you why making Sure Israel Ukraineh succeed is vital for Americas National securityoy. You know, history has taught us that when terrorists dont pay a price sue for their terrot when dictators dont pay a price for their aggression they cause more chaos and death and more destruction. They keep going. And the cost and the threats a to and the world keep rising. So if we dont stop putins appetite for power and control ukraine, he wont limit himself just to ukraine. Putins already to remind,mind quote, remind poland that their western land was a gift from russia. Russione of his top advisors, a former president of russia, has called estonia and lithuania Russias Baltic provinces. Ussia these are all natos allies for. 75 years nato has kept peace in europe. It has the cornerstone of American Security. And if Putin Attackse corn natoa we will defend every inch of natos, which we grew with treaty requires and callswh for. Well have something that we dao not seek. Make it clear. Wet se we do not seek. Ek we do o nohat seek to american s troops fighting in russia or fighting against russiora beyond europe. We know that our allies, maybes most important, our adversaries and competitors are watching. Theyre Watchingwatching Respone in ukraine as well. And if we walk away, let putinde a race. Ukraines independence would be aggressors around the world,e be emboldened to try the same ot of conflict and chaos could spread in other parts of the world. And in the indopacific, in the middle east, especially in thet. East. Iran is supporting russia, as you in ukraine, and is supporting hamas and other Terrorist Groups in the region and will continue to hold them accountablcontinuee, might add. U the United States and our partners across the regionr are working to build a Better Future for the middle east. E whone where in the middle east is more stable, better connected its neighbors,s and through innovative projects like the indiaann middle east, your rail corridor that i announced this year, the summit of the worlds biggest economies were markets more employment, less rage, war less grievances, less war. When connected, it benefits it, would benefit the people of the middle east and will benefit us. D american is what holds the world together. American alliances will keepllic us america safe. American values are whates make us a partner of other nations. Want to worr k with to put all that at risk. If we walk away from ukraine, we turn backs on israel. Its just not worth it. Thats why tomorrow im going t to send to congress an urgent budget request to fund Americas National security needs to supporto fund our critp partners, including israel and ukrainore, is a smart investment thats going to pay dividends for American Security generations. Help us keep american troops n out harms way. Way a help us Build A Worlndd that is safer, more, more prosperous for our children and grandchildreprospen. Ren. In israel, we must make sureke that they have what they need to protect their people today, and always the Security Packagea im sending to congress and asking congress to do is an unprecedented commitment to israels security that will sharpen israels qualitative military edge, which weve Committel Sharped to the qualitd military edge. Ski were going to make sure iron dome continues to guard the skies overes, israel. Sur were going to make sure other hostile actors in the region know that israel is stronger than ever and prevent this conflict spreading. But at the same time, president netanyahu and i discussed again yesterdayat the critical need for israel to operate by the laws of war. That means protecting civilians in combat as best as they calia and the people of gaza urgently need foogaza need, water and mea yesterday, in discussiony ins, the leaders of israel and egypt i secured an agreementd an for o the first shipment of humanitarian assistance from the united nationsan Palestinian Civilians in gaza. Hamas not divert or steal this shipment. The shipments were goingrt o to provide an opening for sustained delivery of lifesaving humanitarian for the palestinians. As i said, in israel, as hard as it is, we cannot give up on peace. We cannot give up on a two state solution. Israel two and Palestinians Equy deserve to live in safety, dignit y and peace. E to b you know, here at home, we have th be honestho ourselves. In recent years, too much hate o has given too much oxygen, fueling racism, the rise of antisemitism, islamic phobia right here in america. Its also intensified in the wake recent events that ledto to the horrific threats and attacks that bot theh shock us and break our hearts. R on october 7th. Terror attacks have triggered deep and terrible memories in the jewish community. Today, jewish families worried about being targeted in school, wearing symbols of a face walking down The Street Orried going out about their daily lives. About and i know many of you in the Muslim American community, the arabamerican community, the palestinianamerican community, and many othersoutrag are outraged and hearty, saying to yourself, here we go again with islamophobia phobia and distrust. We saw after 911 just last911 week, a mother was brutally her stabbed, a little boy here in the United States, a little boyin who just turned six years old, was murdered in their home outside of chicago. His name was wadiya. Ca proud american. A proud palestinian wad american family. We cant stand by and standah silent. This happens. We must, without equivocatiowhi denounce antisemitism. We must also, withou antiset equivocation, denounce islamophobia. And all you heard as you heard it. I want you to know. I se ie you belong. And i want to say this to you. Youre all american. Youre all american. This is inis i a moment where, you know, in moments like these, and when fear and Suspicio Thesen Anger and re run hard, that we have to worke harderha than ever to hold on to the values that make us who we are. Wewere a nation of religiousof freedom, freedom of expressione. We all havrighe a right to debae and disagree without fear o of being targeted in schools or workplaces or in our communities. I must renounce violence and vitriol. See other not as enemies when as fellow americans, when was in israel yesterday, i said that Wheesterdayn America Experd the of 911, we felt enraged as well while we fought and got justice, we made mistakes. Esso i cautioned the government of israel not to be blinded by rage. And here in america, let us not forget who we are we reject. R all forms. All formejt als hate, whether at muslim jews or anyone. Thats what great nation is do. And we are a great natiowen. On ukraine, im asking congresms to make sure we can continue to send ukraine the weapons they need to defend themselves and their country without interruption. S withso ukraine can stop Putins Brutality in ukraine. They are succeeding. When putin invaded ukraine, he thought putin he would take v and all of ukraine in a matter of days. Well, over a year later, putin y has failed and he continues fail. He still stands because of the kyivery of the ukrainian people. Ukraine has regained more thanbr 50 of the territory. Russian troops once occupied backedve a u. S. Led coalition of more than 50 countries around the worldn troops, all dg his part to support kyiv. What would happen if we walkedco away . Alitioth 5we are the essential. Meanwhile, putin has turned to iran and north korea to buy Attack Drones and ammunition to terrorize ukrainian cities and people. From the outset, ive said idron will not senesd troops to fight in ukraine. Fil ukraine is asking for is for the weapons, munitions, the capacity, the capabilitygh r to push invading Russian Forces off their land. G fothe air Defense System to st down russian missiles before they destroy ukrainian cities. Let me be clear about something. We send ukrainian equipment sitting and our stockpilesy. And when we use the money allocated by congress, welocate use it to replenish our own stores, our own Stockpilesby Con with new equipment, equipment to defeat the defensed is america and has Made In America Patriot Missiles for air defense batteries made in arizona, artiller. Y shells manufactured in 12 states across the country, in pennsylvania, ohio, texas 1, and so much more. You know, just in World War Two today, patriotic American Workers are building Arsenal Of Democracy and serving the cause of freedomth. Let me close with this. Earlier year, i boarded Air Force One for a secret flight, poland. Out wit boarded a train windows for a ten hour ride each way to kyiv to stand10 with the people of ukraine. Ahead of the one Year Anniversary of their brave fight against putin. Im told i was the First American in a war zone not controlled by the United States military since president lincoln. T with me with just a small g group of security personnerol, few advisers. But when i exited that train and met just wolinskirain president zelenskyy, i didnt feel like i was bringing with me the idea of america, the promise of america to the people who are today fighting for the same things we foughms t for 250 years ago. Freedom, independence. Minati as i walk through kyivon, president zelenskyy with Air Raid Sirens sounding in the distancet , i felt something ie always believed more strongly than ever before. America is a beacon to the world. Bstill, still where i was, my friend Madeleine Albright said. The indispensable nation tonight. There are innocent people all over the worlddispensa. Who hope because bec of us, who believe in a better life, becausaue of us, who areof desperate not to be forgotte un by and are waiting for us. Fbut is of the essence. Ou i know we have our divisions at home and we have to get past them. We cant let pettyt , angrygr politics get in the way of our responsibilities as a great nation i. We cannot and will not letnation terrorists like hamas and tyrantets like putin win. I refuse to let that happen. Moments like these, we have to remind, we have to remember who we are. United we are the United States of america. The united s states of america. I and there is nothing, nothing beyond our Capacitngd Ouy if wet together. My fello fellow americans, thank you for your time. May god bless you alu all. Y may god protect our troops. P President Biden in his second Oval Office Addressn hi, lasting just about 15 minutes, focusing on israels attacksg o israels response to hamas attacks, also about the war in ukrainee wa, intertwining the two two war fronts at times in what he called six stories in both places and depravityg d saying hamas and putin represent different threats. But they both, quote, want to annihilate a neighboring democracy. He said again publicly that israel did not bomb the al ali hospital inside gaza. He characterized not moment in e world saying, quote, were facing an Inflection Pointn in history that decisions made todaory. Y will determine the fue for decades to come. And a large part that speech, martha dealt with ukraine. Yeah, its understanding that a lot of the speech was yt written About Ukrainof Te and. The question about funding for ukraine and his support for it. Befored hi october 7th. And then it became obvious that he needed to talkh. About e well. Its very fascinating that thisd president who really wanted to pull us out of long wars tonigh t u t is essentially looking at the American People and saying there an axis of evil and that its iran. Il its russia with its battle with ukraine and its china. You talked about the ir and the. C encroachment of aggressors and dictators and making talke r wonamic argument that the world depends on the leadership of therl united. Hes going to face a lot of questions about where that leadership has been leading up to these events and whether or not it wass weakness by his administration that allowed the emboldenewed of iran and of russia to make the move that they madale and of china, who has been, you know, saber rattling, russia pushing their equipment around taiwan and, threatening them as well. At one point, he said iran is supporting Russia Inside and iran is supporting hamas bother terrorists organizations. Well continue to hold them accountabl orting hists oe. Think republicans who have been critical of this administration would say where is the continued part about holdinge iran accountable . If anything, theyve enabled iranan t to get around sanctions and sell oil to china and others for, billionsis and billions of dollars that gets funneled to hamas and hezbollah. Ing lets bring in our panel, fox news chief political analyst brit hume. Danain p perino, coanchor of americas newsroom, cohost of the five, and harold ford jr. Former tennessee congressman, cohost of the five. Brit, this is th forjue presides second Oval Office Address. Your overall thoughts r about tonight . Well, i think it mared asy be remembered as one of the bes best, if not the best speeches of his presidency. He was fir ohim he was unequivo. He was strong, as he has been particularly in recent days and when he was before he went to israel. And while he was ove while r there, i was struck by the fact that he spent as much time as he ditimes d on ukraine. And i think it was a good thing that he did because the aid for package that hes talking about and further aid to ukraine beyond that is in jeopardy. And i think that Hjeopdye Hamped A Little Bit in that effort by the fact that he did not really Mentiont Mentio the reas. I mean, he mentioned, broadly speaking, the best reason for sticking with it in ukraine, which is that what would the rest of thh itine world, it evildoers, think if we pulled out of there . Becaus . Thate that comes on the e of his having pulled out of afghanistan, which arguably emboldened all of the all of our adversaries around the world, particularly Vladimir Putin. He didnt make that he he cant really make that case and you wouldnt expect him to. But He Madarounde Strong Case Ft nonetheless. And i think its i think its an thing he did. And also, of course, youre right, bret, to wonder whether, as republicans will, therell be a follow up to his statement about holding iran accountable. But at least he talked about iran talke. He had been loath to do sohe in his remarks regarding this is israe was dl atrocities since they happen. But tonight there it was. Soities. On two important count. I think he did it remarkablyg, well and was quite strong, quite firm. Dana, a lot has beena said about the fact that the president prior to this has noat articulated a strong argument for why the United States has to support ukraine. Its expected hes going to ask for 60 billion, a much bigger amount than was already on the table, that congress has not has not a lot of the Money Foigger yet. What did you think of the argument he made tonight . Well, im a little out of my comfort zone because i almost alwaysof with brit hume and i almost wish we were sitting next to each other so that ihold could hold his hand and say, can we watch that together . Watchagain . I actually didnt think it was strong. I prepared all day to love this speech. I prepared to want stand up and cheer. And at times i felt like we were reading a speec we we whos pages had been mixed up out of order. I though ot that he didnt spend enough time talking about the atrocities of octobe r seventh. He does obviously have a definite deep understanding of the pain and. He is definitely against antisemitism, both abroad and,a at home. But he he rushed that part of the speech so muc ah and. The next thing i know, were talking about ukraine, and then t. E kind of back to israel but then wait, are you going to bring it up taiwan as well . I thought theres going to be somethin taiwag on the southern border. I did not think it was as strong as it could have beein ,and i wanted it to be strong. E heres what i think. I would have done this speech, t as you pointed out, was largely written about ukrainte e. That was a good speech for him to give. I think what i would have done tonight in an ovalve. Officehere address is to say im here to talk to you about Thee Atrocities and the terrorist attacks. We are in a Fight Betweets Attan and barbarism. And its not just happening in israel. I its happening in these parts of the world and point those out. Part wourld. E speech, i think he could have said s, i will be going to congress on i will make Everybody Sit together, even though they dont have a speaker. Monday right now. And i will make them listen to me and im going to make pitch for the money because we need to take this very seriously. Matthew continetti wrote a piece today that i thought was so good. He said, we are no longee tor a stage where we can say, can and should help fund these efforts. We are now in a situation where Foreign Policy can is so deteriorated that we are in a position of need and must. Posi soon to me, watching the speechd it felt like watching a pinball game and i wanted to love it hume and and want to sit next to brit hume and hold his hand and see if we can watch it together. Ive never seen that between dana perino and brit hume. Harold, i want to play something for you. Its not 902. It is four paragraphs in where president talks about the hit on that hospital insidhi ie. Y take a listen. Ot like so many other im heartbroken by the tragic loss of palestinian life, including ans of explosion at te tospital in gaza, which was no done by the israelis. Hes obviously said that on his trip. But he added that just at thet beginning of his speech, heralod. The oval office well, thanks for having me. I think it was important for him to say that that that that a tragedy upended his trip and it very, very hard for him, if not impossible for him to have met l with some of the arab leaders he wished to meet with on that trip. Wanted tet withaving said all th i thought his presence in israel was the right was the righe rit ti allt time. And all of his words, i think, have resonated across the world. But let me get to the speech as i sit next to dana, two seats from her two or three nights a week. I dont like disagreeing two. Eech i thought this was a good speech for for one reason. T fo he laid out for a lot of the country who, dont follow these things as closely as we do. Why ukraine is important to our National Security or why its a part of our nationalimportan ins and obviously linked it, too, to israel. The he said that hamas and putin are one in the same. Ame. I a lot of americans that wu that will reverberate in parts of our country that want to understand why would you send a ukraine, and se israeli ask for Military Assistance together. When he talked about the and context of terms, the terms of the Inflection Points in our nations, almost 250her. Year history. Every Inflection Point has been motivatetion pd. Our defined by our defense of freedom and libertyefensive in projecting it from truman, who was at the endd , who the president at the outset, at the birth of israel, who introducedof truman doctrine, gave us the Marshall Plan and gd. Ebuil these are moments when america has to be at its best. And when he reminded b of of that beacon of the world, when he reminded us of that former of state who called us the indispensable nation, i viewed this speech the first into introduction, rather, for him to ask congress and congress t is obviously dealing with some internal matters, but to ask congress, let us step forward as a nation. Let us step forward as a congress and provide the Military Assistance and resources to ensure that evil that the barbarism that dana rightly talked about does not spread further. So i give him i give him a good grade tonight as weth are hearing that speech, as the president was delivering it, were getting confirmation that u. S. Forces were attacked in iraq. Militaryt force hosting u. S. Fy near the Baghdad Airport took on rocket fire as thats happening, showinge how dangerous, the situation is, and a tinderbox really all over the regiosiisn, to harolds point. I want to bring in anchor, coanchor of americas i W John Roberts from jerusalem to join the discussion. Hererts from is that point of m. And Intertwining Hamas and Vladimir Putin . Take a liste twinin. Hamas and putin represent different threats, but they share this in commonreatt shar. They both want to completely annihilate in neighboring democracy, annihilated hamas. This stated purpose for is a destruction of the state of israel and the murder of jewish people. Meanwhile, putin denies ukrainef has or ever had real statehood. John, youve been dealing with talking with israeli amers on the ground there. They have praised the president on both his and what hes saying. What did you hear in that u hear . I mean, they have been praising the president because pres Behindhe Wanrsquareg th israel. He wants to give them what they need, order to be strong. And really, what they need more than anything is replenishmenty ne. The iron dome system, because of hezbollah, decides to get into this fighs replt, its goig to start raining missiles down on israel. And the only thing that will save Israel Fromitl Rain that iy a fully supplied iron dome. But butt will when it came te reason why this entire region is a tinderbox is because of one nation, iran is nott be because of Vladimir Putin. Cause ofits because of iran. Where was the Ronald Reagan moment . Where was the kennedy moment . Where was even the George Bushth moment to to fire e a warning shot across irans bow to saywa not just to say, dont, dont, if yt, dont, but stay out this because if you dont stay out of it, there will be consequences. D im with dana. That was glaringly missing this speech. And that is the one thing that everybody in this wants to hear is this president being very stronhig about iran, whiche is fully funding these mebsidiary proxies which are creating this mess here in israel. All right, Everybody Standss Hef you would. Lets bring in sean hannity. He will be hosting a special c hour version of hannity tonight. Sean, good to have you witiatwoa us. Your reaction to what you heard from President Biden, Momentt Du Ago . Well, i dont want this to be gang up on brit night here, but i share a lot of john and sentiments and danas sentiments as the speech was the going on. I wrote down a couple of words. I thought the speech was disjointed. I thought it was cliched. I wanted to hear more about the barbaric brutality that that took place in israelok and their terror attack,ore the worst in their history. I wanted to hear more about the hostagesab. Lled i wanted to hear more about the americans killed. I wanted to hear more about what America Needs to do h to help our Fellowel Americans out in all of this. Hes been forcing in a made a big point yesterday that that he tried to force upon the need to give money to the palestinians. E palestin i could tell you fm experience, i know john is on the ground there now. Ive Bee Have Ben Israel numerous times times, even during some conflicts and flare ups. Nothing like whats going on now. Bun the networkunnels of underground tunnels. I have seen with m. Y own eyes what what aid money. Where aid money gone that we have given to the palestinians. E thi have seen, you know, money that was supposed to be spent on infrastructure, on schools, on hospitals. So theyre building these tunnels. Isr they can go into Israel AeliandKill Israelis and take israelis. I have no confidence at alli be that 100 million, which is what i believe joe is now proposing, is is going to ends up in anybody elses hands but hamass hands. What assurances will we havesu back johns point . I thought that on the issue of iran, their involvemente of here, the Iranian Revolutionary guard, the kurds forces up to their eyeballs in the plotting and the planning and the scheming of thisthis attack. You know, some reports saying going back as far as two years. Why isnt he holding irans the feet to the fire . Atio you know, right now, if you look at the situation in israe israel in particular, t only they are facing a two front war and, that is hezbollah in the north and lebanon, but also obviously gaza in the south and the i proximity to israeli communities and towns. Sr ies and and been there on theser towns. These are towns where childrendu in underground bunkers, because beca only takes 13 seconds from the moment a rocket is fired to lan rocd one of these border cities. And as i look, the the security challenges that israel is facing here, i dont think israel has much of a choice but to go ini and Prevent Thise area of gaza from ever againnt being a being a Launching Pad to attack these israeli cities. And heres the heres the really scaryci. Picture tonight to me. And i wish he addressed it. And that not only will israel possibly be fighting a two front war, but iran is saying time is upe is. Iran is now saying that they may involve themselves in this conflictthemsen this. D if, god forbid, that happens, that to mepens all bets are off in terms of peace in the entire region. E en you could have a full on war in the entire region, break ouni and god forbid what it mightmigh take to actually end that conflict. It was very disturbing. E one of other point, very dis disturbing to me that leaders in jordan, not even abbas himself, the palestinianordan, authority, egypt, they didnt wantd to with anrassin american president. And i felt that was embarrassing when the presidengt got back on Air Force One and he had a horrific, you know, gaggle of reporters where he was basicallyas. That was scary to me because its not just that, you know, conservative hosts like myself caconservan can look at this an this is dangerous. This is not good for our countrgoodory. But the world is watching this. That axig s evil that that i believe martha, you mentioned is real this is iran, this is china, this is russia. S we we believe that north korean rockets were used against israelre. O you know, so it might be anevil even bigger axis of evil. So i think. A very, very troubling time for the world. And you knowworld. , that speeche just heard going back and forth and flipping and flopping all the way from, you know, ukraine back to israel, israel back to ukraine and very little mention of of the underlying, you know, problem, i think is iran was troubling to me. So arab leaders, youre rightd sean didnt meet with him even after that intelligence came ou wt about, you know. Well, thats another big problem, right . Brit, i want to have you respond. Youve now sat aroun wand aftern your first statement. What are your thoughtd. S . Im a little bruised here, but youre okay. Well, with all respect to myespt colleagues, i would make this point the case that iran and particularly hamas, islamic and these terrorists are the thd guys and our friends the israelis are the victims and The Good Guys was made by the events of october 7th and byr the subsequent comment by the president and countless others since it is a overwhelming Majority View, what is not such an overwhelming Majority View and what is clearlyiew is the president s mind is keeping going. Our commitmentng in ukraine, which, by the way, has involvede not a singled no soldier in anyn combat role or any role at all really. And yes, a lot of money, but afc tiny fraction of our defenseti budget, which has hade the effect. May i add,effect of weakening Vladimir Putins army and armaments and his regime and his place in the world. It is, as he pointed out, putin to the loss of a huge slice t of Thehe Ter Territory he thougt hed gained in ukraine and,th given the weakness displayed by mr. Biden in pulling out of afghanistan, it created a situation in which wy e where we are there. And if we pulled out of ukrainel the penalty would be awful. I think in terms of our standing in Thut Openalte Worldn in in in china and russia and elsewhere. So i think he was wrong wise to focus as much of the speech as he did on ukraine and whethewhether it seemed jumd to to people listening to the speech. I doubt actually, i think he was he was trying very much the wa to y the two together,e and thats why he went back and forth between them. Togent think that was a fault in the speech. It seems that the task has been laid out. The question is whether or speee this president can handle the enormity of the threat to civilization. As dana put it, that exist out there and whether or not he is up to up to it, frankly. And thats something that we can talk about it. Exists ohe did have you know, hd have the whisper kind of a. Presentation. Dana, some thoughts. As youve heard sean and brit and others weigh in. Well, you know, listening to all of us us, i think that wt all very clear headed and even the president might alsoheresidt be clear minded about the stakes here. The thing is, is that weve all articulated it a lot bettere than he did tonight. And an Oval Office Address g is such a big moment. And i know it is so lonely in that oval office. Its awkward its weird. Youre by yourself. You cant see anybody. And i felt like he rushey. D it. One of the things that he could do going forwardg is more regular speeches and more interviews. He did Ae Interviewsn Interviewk minutes over the weekend. It was a pretty good interview. Ween are entering in a very dangerous time. America and our adversariee.

In recent years, too much hate mus given too much oxygen, fueling racism, a rise of antisemitism, islamophobiaca right here in america. Its also intensified in thesm i wake of recent events that led to the horrific threats and attacks that both shock us and break our hearts. Very interesting assessment about hate here in america, talking about the oxygen it hast been given in recent years. Lets go live to Peter Doocyd Th on the north lawn. Good evening, peter. Youve heard the Panele Panel Wn The President s speech. Youre at the whitthe house. They have been getting ready for this all day. Your thoughts on his focus on thau are Att First Thought and somebody that listens to every president , joe bidens speech. You dont see him sitting down and giving an address likensg do that very often. So that was something different. And actuallywn that know that were. About 25 minutes after he wrapped. There is still a Marinthere Isey posted outside the west wing, so he is still in thoutside e or doing whatever it is a a president does after an address like this. Surely he was surrounded by aidessurround who telling him probably what everybody on tv is sayinaying the remarks. Its interesting, though, because this is sa president wo from the very beginning when it was safe to travelbewa with covh he would come back and say,k. I told these Leaders America is back. And theyre all thrilled to hear it. Thats the conversation. Thats how he characterize. Thes these chats with otherhe world leaders. But he hasnt really until tonigh hasnt to convince ameri the American People thatworl America Needs to establish itself in the world as a leader duringd r time of war. He took all of the pain that came with the dreadful afghanistan withdrawal because t believed that he was very h you had strong convictions. That was the right thing to do. He does not want to be wartime president. And hes very clear hes not he ws intoend u. S. Troopclear harms way to fight russianst in Ukraine Orussiar fight terros in israel. But its influence and u. S. Money and the the the wayuence that the u. S. Can influence other nations from herote that e thinks is so important at this time. Hes not somebody weve heard talk very much over the last three and a half years about terrorism. And so to hear him talk a about terrorists paying the price for terror or dictators paying the price for their aggression, its a lot different than what theyve been trying to talk about in diff what the which is by nomics. Thank you. Weve heard a lot about biden a lot about green energy canceled a green Energy Speech in colorado this week when all of this began happening. So, peter, thank you. Peter doherty, the white house. Lets bring back in retired Army Lieutenant general keith rellogg, who serves brg ind natl security advisor to Vice President mike pence in the last administration. Tii want to play this sound bite about iran. General, take a listen. Iran is supporting russia, as you in ukraine and is supporting hamas and other Terrorist Groups in the region. Meanwhile, putin has turned to iran and north korea to buy Attack Drones and to terrorize ukrainian cities and people. From the he says well continue to hold them accountable. And i think its republican critics mainly who have talked about the president. Where is the accountability on iran for the money, for the support really for anything here . U ar yeah, brad, youre right. Look, i thin k it was a mess tonight. Heres why. That war in ukraine has been Goinn Ukraine Has G for 550 daye hasnt addressed until tonight. But a long war. Second piece is were looking at right now what i think is largest potential fight we have in the middle east with ira n. E and youre looking at a state that were trying to normalize relations with. Were tryingir are to give them more money. Thats a huge mistake. Were giving money mo. Alestinian authorities we cut out and weve moved two to Carrier Strike groups into the eastern me strikd. Weve got a lot of other forces moving there because this may break hard and were breaks hard is because hezbollah, which is an iranian proxsy, is going to get involved. You saw the attack went on by iranian proxies right now in iraq. S we know theyre behind it. And hes got to make a hard call on what he wants to dndo, because if hezbollah comes in this fight. Then the next question is, oka. Y what are you going to do with iran . How are you going to handle itin and Normaliznormalize Russian Rs is a huge mistake. Its a terror state. 13 Days Ag Hugeo in their parliament, they chanted death to america, death to israel. There are 32 dead. Americans from, israel in israel, as a result of that attack. Theres over a dozenthat. Thats the big thats the bigci threat hes facing todayng. And hes going to have to recognize that. Hes going to hes going to have to be potentially wartime president. So let me ask you this. If youre iran watching this speech tonight or you are or president xi or Vladimir Putin, whats your reaction so far youve been able to push into all of these areao s . Are you any more intimidated or thinking that youre going to have to pull back after quest tonights speech . Yeah, great question, martha. And i would say theyre goin mag to test it because i was one of those leaders. Leai would say, lets find out how tough he really is. And hes going to push and thise is when hes going to be resolute and hes taking our actions. And some of those actions are going to be pretty rough because you have to understand therell be s going to be consequences. Like when we went after soleimani, we were told we maywn have another intifada in the middle east. We may seewent some inside irany but we took the decision anyway. So i think hes going to be tested. Those things didnt happen. No, they did. And general, you talked about irans support for hamas and hezbollah. They also support the houthihode in yemen, which today shot land based cruise and eight drones, its believed, towards targets inside israel, the uss karni, the Navy Guided Missile Destroyer in the northerd n red sea, took them out. But this administration back in 2021 removed the designation of ansarullareh the supporters of houthis as a terrorist organization. Ayeah, its i think the comment today was they were fired north. Well, or else youre going to be going back to israel. And thats the reasonon im saying hes going to be tested. I think today youre seeing a test when you noday wat only a but what happened today by iranian proxies inside iraqs. Thats a test. But she where theyre going to take it. And thats were going to see with the president going to react. And i really do think the real fulcrum, the reareal issl is gog to be whats happening in the middle east, which happening with israel, which iran, which happens with hezbollah. Thats the real concern. I think thisncer should have. Ukraine is going to take caree e of itself. All right, general, thankto t you. Lets go back to the panel. And i want to brinheg bret in on this, bret, because theres been a lot of comparisons made to 1973 in the carter administration. And one of the interesting developments 197ro the past coue of days has been these canceled meetings car. Abdullah in jordan, the canceled meeting with abbas the leader of the palestinian authority. And when you Loon Jordank Saudiu arabias posture in all of this, all of those relationr ships that they worked so hard to build, are we now goingd, to seewe slip away . Away and will the arabs coalesce the against the United States and israel is all of that broken down . Well, thats something that i think were all right to worry about. Ive always wondered about the Peace Process and sondered on, whether any of it would ever i rk, because i wondered this, martha is a is an is a is a second is its own state really what the palestinians want or, at least their leaders want . It certainly doesnt seem to be what hamas wants and not at all clear to me that itst a workable solution or ever has been that thhae only solution my be to deal with these people the way they have dealt de with israel and to t some extent with the United States and its allies as Welheunited Sl and that is be with firmness. And ive always worriealliesd that this this whole structure that its attempted. Remember how many times that how many president s came close to what they thought wasla a deal to create a Palestinian State and end the palestinian question, which is thought to be the absolute cente te cr of the problems in the middle east to get that question solved. I remember g bill clinton came o close at the end of Hisnt Presidencyon and Yasser Arafatfm got up and walked away from it. It was quite a dea l with Ofd A The Land Concessions and so on in a second and a Palestinian Statpalee and the rt rest of it. It was all there. It was right in front of him. He walked away. And what did he do . He started the second intifada. So that isd away that is the hiy as a piece of the history here. Other events have been comparable to that. So ive always doubted whether this attempt to to to to solve the Palestinian Probleo M First was ever a good idea. And i think we now know that it did it did i knot. It doesnt work. And that the best hope began with the Abraham Accords and with the with the possibility of some normalization between israel and saudi arabia, which may, in the light of this, havewhic to postponed indefinitely. But i dont think its dead. Yeah, harold, obviously i went a and talked to the saudi crown princed. , then talked to the israeli Prime Minister in successio n and both close said they were very close to a normalization deal. Saudis now said thats on hold. Its frozen. But neither side is really saying in the Big Picturep Th that theyre not theyre going to give up that hope. You would thinatk lot depends herald on what happens inside aza gaza and how this develops in coming days. Let me align myselfn. With bret here again. What you you j just shared bret, just think about this. Just a few weeks ago, we were we wer age lauding and believing that within reach was a historic agreement between saudis and the israelis. A part of that conversation want about the palestinians. But what nbc has shared with you and is that the threat and deterring iran and iran was a big part of why they wanted this agreement. I think president did a fantastic job this evening. Could he have done better . Surea. Should he have speculated about what our war footing and posture may look like . Our a the iranians get involved . I dont think so. I do think Lieutenant General kellogr postd beg, a legitimate . As he raises how and what we do if indeed hezbollah attacks on the north, on the northern border. Th but the president over the last few days never mentioned iran. It tooe nevek they introduced themselves and across twitter wanting to make sure that we knew they were there. The president knows exactlt knon whom hes talking to. The iranians know exactly that. Hes talkingia tho them. And i would argue thosate who believe that russia is not involved here, russia and iran have been partners for a long time. Remember, evenn n in the debate between romney and obama, romney said that russia was our greatestee fatigue, a geopolitical threat, and people laughed at him, including some democrats. He turned out to be the right because russia and iran have been partners. At. The president a good job thab Hope Congress will provide to aid and help hi m help the israelis and help the ukrainians fight wars withouait american. Our panel, stand by, if you would. There is some chaos here in washingto n, not deadly chaos, but it is very chaotic. Coming up next, well talk about the search for a new speaker of ther House Rightexpt behind us on capitol hiledl.

E wa there was not another vote today for a newno house speaker. Republican nominee ohio congressman jim jordan, trying to gain suppor t trying to add aft up the votes after losing two floor votes. So far. R. Senior Congressional Correspondent chad pergram has ch. Latest math from capitol hill. Good evening, chad. Good evening, bret. Were probably going to have a vote on jim jordan, his thirdm sut to be speaker tomorrow jor around 11 00. Right now, it appears that he does not have the votes. He didw it h gain ground today. in fact, he probably lost ground. Grouthe ironic thing when it cos to what President Biden is asking for capitol hill was this aid package, the chaos in the House Of Representativest probably helps why the senate is in control. Entativethe senate wants to jam the House Of Representatives. They are more disposed to this aid package here. Mitch mcconnell, the Senate Minority leader, met with the secretary of state, antony blinken, today. So if they can get this throughy the senate, get more than 60 votes, overcome a filibustenr ,they can send it to thee hous house. But the house could be delayed e cain considering this package. Until they get a speaker. That could be several weeks. Bret chad pergram live on the hill. Chad, thank you. All right, lets go back to th e panel. Quick whip around on this issue. Let me start with dana. Your thoughts on jim jordan. Its going to go in for anothero round tomorrowmorrow. Well, p well, you know, people point out it took mccarthy 15 rounds in order to become the speaker. And i just dont know if we are seeing any sort of movement in the direction. And he doesnt have a lot to play with in terms of making sure that Somebody Canwith what they want or get whator they need in order to vote for him. This is. A when republicans should be shining. President bidens numbers are terrible on every measure. O republicans are more trusted on the economy, crime, economy,the border, foreign poli you name it. And they look like the gang that couldnt shoot straight. But maybe theyll get their act together by next week. Yeah. Bret, youve covered capitol hill for a long time. Av weve never seen a speaker kicked out of office and weveeo seen whats happening now. I wonder if havinnow. G dawn n the the group that voted mccarthy out of officeoted, tini group of what, eight or nine members and they made a mistake. They did did. Now the situation is one where jim jordan is looked upon by more moderate members of the republican caucus. As somebody whos more like those eight or nine then like him, like them, i should say, and i think they feel that making him speaker would rewardke the group of eight. And i dont think and i think reluctant to do it. S i guess im not sure he can gain any gain any votes goinge n forward here. I think we may be in for fe a longer siege even than weve had. Harold, whats your takvee . This is the zenith of the individualization in politics. Politics is about compromise and consensus. You would imagine in your own party, you could find Consensus On Who M The Leaders should be. So you could at least get to work on the hard issues. Think stop thinking about yourself, guys. I remember being there, and sometimes its harinyoursel. Otd to. But its not about you. Its about the body. Its about congress. Its aboutd cong your constitue. Hopefully they can find a way to think about those things as opposed as opposed to just themselves or individuals. Things we can kin id of like European Coalition building and several different parties there. Well see where it goes. Harold, dana brant, as always, n you. Well, they need a House Of Representatives functioning. Ifeed a house of the president is going to put forward what hes putting forward for all this money for israel, ukraine. Its going to be something. Well, maybe they put mchenry in there and well see. He can sort of herd the cats and get this done. Thank you for watching everybody. Great to have you with us tonight to see this President Biden foreign poli of war with hamas and Trace Gallagher fox news at night. Trace good evening im Trace Gallagher 11 00 p. M. On the east
