Rachel welcome back. Were going straight to a fox news alert. Right now smoke is rising over gaza city after a major blast rocked the hamas terrorist hub, and the idf made sweeping arrests in the west bank capturing at least 68 Hamas Terrorists. Yeah jee and hours ago, aid trucks being the rafah Border Crossing to deliver humanitarian aid to gaza saw. Its its unclear if standed foreigners are being allowed to get out. Pete on the heels of hamas releasing Two American Hostages on friday. The idf says the release is simply a delay tactic as the israelis prepare for a major Ground Invasion. An Idf Spokesman joined us earlier on this program and says theyre in a battle of good versus evil. The unfathomable barbarism of this terrorist organization is really, really beyond any understanding of human nature. And it shocks the souls of e any decent human being. Rachel now lets go to trey yingst live on the ground in southern israel. Trey . Whats the latest . Reporter yeah, hey, guys, good morning. I want to start with some Breaking News here, we are e getting reports of an israeli drone strike in Southern Lebanon. It appears the israelis have targeted a hezbollah cell that was responsible for an Antitank Guided Missile that was fired into Northern Israel earlier today injuring at least one person. It gives you a sense of how the israelis are now immediately responding to attacks that are coming from lebanon. We have some video here of strikes overnight. The israelis also hitting differenting positions across the area different positions across the the area after rocket, mortar and antitank attacks that occurred last night. I do want to draw your attention south to the gaza strip though. The the israelis are continuing airstrikes, we were with the Israeli Military along the border. Tensionings very high amid that anticipated Ground Offensive. I do want you to take a look at what it was like last night along the border just to give you a sense of how that heavy the fire is. Thirteen palestinians were killed we need to go, because there could be mortar fire here. Just stay with me, everyone yep, weve got to move. Were very close. Thats mortar. Get into cover. Everyone in . Listen to our camera. [background sounds] so what you heard there, the whistle of, of uncoming mortar fire. So those were, indeed, more or tars that were fired at this position. We are so close today gaza border, you have about 10 seconds to get to cover. That plan we just implemented there, we had discussed that beforehand hand; leave the camera, get to a shelter and hard cover because this is very active here a e along the front. Some positive developments today amid this horrific story. We understand that the rafah crossing between gaza and egypt, that southern crossing, allowed for 20 humanitarian aid trucks to enter the strip today. Remember, more than 2 million palestinian civilian live theres and these are trucks are carrying both canned food and medicine, we are told. We do understand this is part of the larger negotiations that are ongoing to try and get foreign nationals out of gaza and get aid in along with hostage negotiations that con behind the scenes. I did speak with one American Citizen who is currently trapped inside gaza. She went to the Border Crossing today, can and they did not allow her to cross. Guys, back to you. Pete trey, thank you. You know, those 68 hamas members who were detained, you said thats in the west bank. So thats basically Israel Preemptively or proactively saying we need to dismantle not just the military arm, but the political arm of hamas as well to prevent other fronts from opening up. What else do you know about that . Reporter yeah, absolutely. Overnight the israelis carried out a series of raids in the west bank. And when we break down what israel is facing here, just looking at hamas, the second largest proxy of iran in the region, theyre not just facing rocket fire threats from gaza and even palestinian factions that exist in Southern Lebanon or in syria, these people who are sympathetic to the palestinian cause, but deep in the west bank there are thousands of hamas fighters, islamic entry had fighters and also a political wing of hamas. So so literally each and every night since this war began the israelis have been conducting Arrest Operations in the west bank. A few weeks ago we joined them, and they were engaged in an hourslong fire fight with hamas militants. And so they want to get as many of these mill tans as they can over concerns they could launch similar attacks in the west bank over israeli settlements but also capture and arrest as Many Political leaders because they understand its the second most popular Political Party among the palestinians outside of the Palestinian Authority and the fatah party. There are thousands of people who Support Hamas political efforts, and they understand these leaders at the drop of a hat could simply tell people in the west bank to go to the streets and put more pressure on Israeli Security forces. Weve seen a little bit of that so far, but theyre worried about this third front opening up amid increasing regional tension from iranian proxies across the area. Rachel trey, i understand that the hostage, the two hostages that were released, that was through a negotiation with qatar. What are the other countries are we negotiating with them for the other americans that are being held or just dealing with can qatar . Reporter the ca qatarties are playing a huge role in this, trying to get all civilians out being held hostage. We received a Statement Last night from a spokesman for qatars foreign ministry, and their focus is on getting everyone out who is a civilian, doesnt matter what their nationality is. Thats what the statement said. I will say weve been talking with american intelligence sources and people who are familiar with the negotiations that are taking place. Some of the conversations arent even taking place in the gulf, theyre taking place in cairo. But the egyptians and the jordanians want to leverage the situation to insure that aid gets into gaza for palestinian civilian in exchange for taking, a, some of the pressure off the foreign nationals inside gaza, Meting Them Out letting them out and, b, getting more hostages released. Whether or not the israelis if will push forward with the Ground Operation and how that Will Complication complicate whats taking place on the ground. They are promoting a peace summit in egypt. We understand there are palestinian representatives and also top egyptian officials. But we dont expect major developments to come how of that summit as they are calling it because israel is still planning to enter the gaza strip and conduct a massive Ground Operation to destroy and degrade hamas. And when that happens, there is intelligence and analysis across the region that iran will push proxies like hezbollah in the north from Southern Lebanon to get more directly involved in this fight, and thats why there are so many Evacuation Orders taking place. Its why you see Airlines Across the middle east moving their planes to turkey and other countries not so close to this conflict, because they understand the situation is unraveling quickly. And thin with assets or people anyone with as assets or people in the region, theyre trying to get them out. Ray thank you, trey. Joey thanks, trey. Pete thank you very much for all your reporting this morning. Rachel absolutely. Joey Two American Hostages will soon be heading back to the u. S. Pete the mother and daughter were released by hamas yesterday after being abducted two weeks ago. Rachel our own peter doocy is live at the white house with the latest on that. Peter, good morning. Reporter good morning. One of the first things that happened when these hostages, Judith And Natalie Rah Noon ranaan were released from captivity the, somebody handed them a phone, and it was pridinn calling from the oval office. And now we are hearing from the husband and father of these two the who were kidnapped from a kibbutz. I havent been sleeping for two weeks. Tonight im going to sleep good. I spoke with my daughter earlier today. She sounds very good. He looks very good. She looks very good. She was very happy and shes waiting to come home. Reporter there are still very few details about how hamas handed these two over to the red cross, but we know it was for humanitarian reasons, not because Special Forces went in guns blazing. They could return to the u. S. As soon as this week. Natalie is 17, its her birthday coming up next week. Shell be turning 18 on the 24th. They were celebrating partially as a Graduation Gift because she had just graduated with honors from a school in chicago. Reporter overnight there was some real confusion here on the biden beat as the president , who publicly supports whatever israel wants to do to hamas, appeared to confirm reports that privately he is telling the israelis to pump the brakes. Reporter but, no. The white house says now the president was far away, he didnt hear the full question. The question sounded like would you like to see more hostages released. He wasnt commenting on anything else. And thats kind of a head scratcher because he could apparently hear the first question just fine. It was the second one that caused problems. The white house has now walked back. We dont expect to see the president today, hes at the beach house in delaware. Rachel of course. Pete of course. You know, peter, youre close to the ongoings of this administration. Do you get a sense of how much tension there is between the support of israel which you see and also other staffers . Weve heard of resignations of those who dont agree with the policy, who are more propalestinian. Is there a tension there that youre seeing . Reporter no. I dont notice any of that tension. I know up on capitol hill particularly there are some very Progressive Democrats who want a ceasefire, i dont get any whiff of that from anybody here at the white house. I do think that there is something to these reports that President Biden wants the israelis to wait this hostages are released or until civilians, more civilians can get out of gaza before they go in with their Ground Invasion. And i have a sense of that because last week when i talked to him, i asked him what worries you about an Israeli Ground invasion is, and his oneword answer was just death. Hes worried about collateral here. I dont think that he has any problem, and i dont think the white house staff generally has any problem with the israelis going in and getting justice for these 1400 israelis who were murdered in cold blood. And i really dont sense much dissension pete good to hear. Reporter yeah. Pete peter doocy, thank you very much. Rachel thank you, peter. Its so interesting. I dont often agree with joe biden, but i think thats a reasonable thing, to be worried about a Ground Invasion after also trying to get hostages and negotiate their exit. I dont understand how all this stuff works. Seems kind of logical to me. Pete it could be. You also just dont want a foreign power telling a country like israel, hey, you know, 1400 of your civilians were killed in a brutal way rachel right. But they have hostages too, pete. Pete thats their consideration to make. And as The American President , you should be making rachel we should care about our hostages. Joey 100 . I agree with rachel, not that we dont all agree, but ive said since the beginning of this, The American President s priority should be getting americans home. Rachel thats right. Joey and that has not been his priority in wars past which for us are months past. We look at afghanistan, what happened in ukraine. If hes finally learned his lesson and that is his priority, im not going to knock him for it. Rachel me too. Pete and by the way, so we had that announcement of two americans released overnight, which is great to see, coming home and peter reported on that. We also that had a family on our program earlier at the beginning of the 7 a. M. Hour, if you missed it, it was gayle and mika alexander, thats a mother and sister of an americanheld hostage. He went to school in new jersey, graduated an american, then went to israel to serve his time in the idf. He was on watch at his post in the Israeli Defense forces along the Gaza Border On October 7th Ask was taken hostage along with members of his unit. They have hope that because of the release of the other two americans, he might be released as well. At least thats their hope. We had a chance to talk to them on the couch earlier in the program. Heres what they had to say. Days after they told us hes been missing, they came, like, officials from the idf, and toll us that hes hostage by hamas and hes in gaza. Like, this is something that confirmed to us. I think the release of the two hostages recently just is giving us and a lot of other people hope as well. And, yeah, everyone has just been so supportive. The u. S. Has been extremely supportive, i couldnt even imagine yes. And i think, honestly, it gives hope to us and the families of the hostages as well that good things are going to happen in the here to future. Rachel yeah. You know, this was a heartbreaking interview. I asked, you know, them as well, like, you know, what they thought about this whole situation, you know . The Ground Invasion versus, you know, securing the hostages and how that might impact that. As americans and what they thought. And they said were just not even watching the news. All we can think about is our loved one, is our son, and we want him home. And they did seem is very hopeful, i will say. Didnt they to you . Pete they did, yeah. And they were very affirming to to of the of the administrations attempts, and i think to your point earlier considering what happened in afghanistan, if theres a redoubling to say, hey, were going to get americans home, that thats a good thing. Rachel yeah. That should be our first priority. Pete a soldier taken from an outmust confirmed alive, wonder how that changes the dynamic because he was wearing the uniform of israel when he was taken. Rachel i thought that too. Pete a young man who grew up in america, fighting and now held by hamas, and whop and pray that hes returned. Joey 19 years old. Graduates high school here in new jersey, and he decides he wants to service recent so, of course, hes a hero, and we look forward to welcoming him home. Rachel sure do. Pete its a reminder. By the way, as we talk about whats happening in gaza and you heard trey mentioning a third front, hes talking about the west bank should hamas ignite things there. But that second front is heating up also, and thats because hezbollah is warning that it has, its thousands of times stronger than it was before. Its 100,000 plus army, its got over 150,000 missiles pointed at israel, half of which are precision missiles. So it is a Formidable Force that gets 700 million in funding a year from iran. Rachel wow. Pete and an army pointed at the north of israel. Something that israels certainly thinking about as it looks at a Ground Invasion. We had robert greenway, the director of the center for National Defense at the heritage foundation, just breaking down how forbidable formidable is hezbollah. Heres what he said. Since 2006, the last time israel and hezbollah locked horns. Theyve undertaken a significant campaign to the expand. This is the capability that iran has provided to hezbollah. You mentioned the funding, and the funding is significant. But the equipment and the equipment in large measure comes through syria. So when you see strikes in damascus at the airport, its the transfer of the kits to make those nonprecision missiles into precision missiles. And theyve been doing it for so long that the inventory is significant. Ultimately, were leading up to a point in which those missiles could be employed. Its why the presence of u. S. Assets in the region could augment and make all the difference for israel. Pete so, guys, i mean, the key is the iranian backing of this organization which brings us to the next aspect of our story, a headline in the ney post that caught all of our in the New York Post that caught all of our eyes. Top iranian pentagon aide keeps her Security Clearance despite spying for tehran. At least thats the act a sayings, and theres a a lot of evidence there. Rachel her name is arianna. She has her own family member, her father, i believe, is closely tied to the iranian regime. He died recently. Finish but, you know, there are very clear evidence that she was pie spying for iran, and yet even after that a came out, theyve decided, our government has decided to let her keep her Security Clearance. I mean, you can imagine, okay, maybe because youve got joe biden in and they love this iran deal and theyre tryinged to do this, you know, different way of doing things with iran, and she, you know, maybe keeps her job. I dont think she should, but let her keep her Security Clearance despite that . Its just, its kind of mindboggling. Its really frustrating as an american to really try and understand how this administration thinks in the midst of this as we know that iran has so much to do with what is going on with hamas. Joey no, absolutely. You know, Security Clearance is a pretty easy thing to put on pause to to get some informatio rachel right. Are. [laughter] exactly. Pete she was a key aide a to the suspended envoy, robert malley, who was suspended rachel under really weird circumstances. Joey anyone who worked with him should also be put on pause. Pete well, shes not. Shes keeping her 150,000 a year salary, her Security Clearance, and she has said things in the past like iran is too powerful to contain or, you know, we cant can ask iran to give up all Missile Activity for the future. Rachel right. Pete so if youre sitting across a table and youve got the american side and the iranian side and on the american side youve got someone whos proiranian or at least her background, that gives you a sense of rachel but the Obama Administration was proiranian in many ways. And so this is kind of part and parcel with that policy, something that donald trump moved us away from, and when joe biden came into office, all the obama holdovers and, of course, everybody else in the Democrat Party wanted to, quick, run right back joey you said keeping her 100,000 salary, thats a drop in the bucket, so i dont know if im as upset about that anymore. [laughter] rachel its not the salary, its the Security Clearance, and its the lack of alarm and sort of concern on the part of people who should be caring about this, about spying. Pete yeah. All right. Our next guest escaped nazi germany when he was 9 years old and says whats happening today in israel reminds him of the horrors he faced over 80 years ago. Hell join us next.

Pete survivors of the holocaust speaking out against this months deadly attack on israel and against the surge of antisemitism around the world. Our next guest was only 9 years old when he escaped nazi germany, joining his father in the United States with his mother and brother in 1939. Before their escape, he witnessed the night of broken glass, the horrific and violent 2 day bag ram position ram against jews. He sees shockingly similarities to what we are seeing happening today. I win gains joins irwin gains joins me now. Irwin, thank you so much for being here. Your story is one that needs to be told and retold. Did you ever imagine thank you very much. Pete thank you, sir. What we saw On October 7th, two weeks ago, did you ever think we would see something that brought us back to the imagery of what was experienced during the holocaust, sir . Never. It really upset me when i saw On October 7th what they did as far as the people that died and also the buildings that were then destroyed. This is exactly the same thing that happened in germany in 1938, november 9th, 1938, and and november 10th. This is what happened during that period of time. Now, let me go back a little bi pete sure. What happened in germany. I was, i was 5 years old and ready for school, but i could not go to school because the german people, the government, the nazis, the gestapo said, no, no student, no jewish students can go to school in germany. So my parents had to do, to find a Jewish School which was about 35 miles from home. I had to use a train every morning to go to the school in earlierny. Now, i have hear my last ticket that i, that my parents purchase for me. You have it on the screen here. Pete yes. Here it is. This ticket here is about 90 years old. When i came home, when i came home from the school on november 9th, my mother was waiting for me at the train station, and she had which was not the usual. I usually walked a short distance back home from the train station. She had a banana with her, which was strange also. She gave me the banana so that i would not be terrified of what i was going to see. As we walked home, i saw glass on the street and in our front yard. All of our windows were broken. And as i walked inside the house, i saw that the nazi, the hitler union, the nazi youth, with a hatchet tore up all of our sofas, our chairs, smashed the pictures on the walls and did a lot of damage downstairs. Upstairs in our bedrooms, our bedrooms were heated by coalfired burning ovens. These were ripped from the foundation and thrown onto the beds. Ill never forget that sight as a long as i live. Pete no doubt. Your father had already fled, right . And they were my father, my father, my father, yes, my father my grandmother, one of the smartest women, she saw what was coming after hitler was nominated in 1933. Antisemitism was getting worse by the day. And she saw that we had to get out of germany. But the big problem was where could we move to . It was very difficult to come into the United States because you had to have a sponsor. The sponsor had to put money into the bank so that you would not be a burden to the state. And this sponsor only had enough funds for one person. And it was decidedded that my father should leave. Thank god he did. Pete and then he communicated with your mother and eventually you were able to join him. Eventually. Thats correct. Now, let me tell you the story the, my, before my father left, he and my mother made an arrangement to tell him whats going on in germany, because every letter that was sent out the gestapo looked at and made sure that there was nothing against hitler. Which what he did was snip a lock of what she did was snip a lock of my hair and put it into the envelope that everything was still okay. Letters that did not is have this lock of hair told him that things were getting worse, and hed better get us out of the country. Pete amazing. Now, let me explain also pete go ahead with. Yes, im sorry. No, im sorry, go ahead. Pete no, i think its a reminder of sheer evil that existed, the targeting of the jewish people for who they were, that were seeing begin. When you look at these protests that are happening across the country immediately after the Terrorist Attack effectively siding with hamas, does it surprise you that these viewpoints still exist . They still exist, and its getting worse in this country also. Let me go back on crystal knock. That night the gestapo, the nazis destroyed all of the jewishowned stores. They broke the windows in the stores, they stole all the merchandise, and then they set the stores on fire. Throughout germany. It was a difficult, difficult evening. And also i remember when i went to bed, All Of A Sudden the door opened downstairs, and two the gestapo men came with their dog. They looked around, and they wanted to find my father. My father, thank god, was already in america. And i also remember that both of them stood at my bedroom door, shone a flashlight onto the bed. But what they did, they turned around and they left. Now, at that time they did not take children and women. However, that changed very shortly thereafter where they took everybody. After crystal knot which was november 10th, 90 jewish men were murdered, and it was a disaster. We could not, we could not walk out of our house because the young jewish young jewish boys used to march past our house and make all kinds of comments. Next to our house where we lived in we moved from frankfurt after hitler came to power, my father lost his job, we moved to a small town which was on the mow zell. And we lived there. And we, at that a time next to our house there was a tavern. And this tavern, at night the gestapo used to go there and have a good time. And they used to sing songs about killing the jews. Now, you can imagine, we were mt. House next door In The House Next Door pete cant imagine if. And we were very, very, it was just a terrible situation. Pete i cant imagine, erwin. Weve got to leave it right there, but the comparison that immediately came to mind while you spoke as a 5yearold there are the 5yearolds who were on those kibbutzes in the south of israel who woke up to terrorists in their communities wanting to kill them. The hatred of jews and the destruction of the jewish people, the thread line from the gestapo to hamas is clear and is something the jewish people have had to fight back against and will continue to. And youre a Living Testament to it, sir. Thank you so much for sharing your story with us this morning. Thank you. Pete god bless you, sir. Thank you. All right. Right now Israeli Forces stepping up strikes against hamas targets in gaza city. Were seeing new explosions about every few minutes at this point. Lets go now to mike tobin, hes outside a house in ashkelon that was hit by a rocket overnight. Mike. Reporter pete, thats exactly what were looking at here. Behind me is a house that took a direct hit last night, you can see the hole in the roof. And what i know about the family here, traditional, they were gathering for the friday night shabbat dibber. However dinner. Howevers at the last minute, they went to a different house. This house took a direct hit, and everyone in this particular family is okay. Some 1189 rockets have been fired here at ashkelon, 189 of them got through. This rocket hit right about the time we were doing our live shots and saw a barrage of rockets come in from the gaza strip. [background sounds] i dont want to i see more launches right now. That is from the gaza area. A big flurry of activity. That one looks like its coming down, and i dont think its going to get intercepted. Very is well we could get some strikes here. And that was last night. And then we saw, indeed, there were some strikes that came through. If i show you around this neighborhood, it looks like it could be miami or scottsdale with the difference that a lot of israeli neighborhoods will have a bunker somewhere where people can retreat. Most houses have a safe room, but theres a gentleman there, his name is rami, his house doesnt have a safe room, so they have moved into the neighborhood bunker. Thats just one of the are remarkable things that is happening, the neighborhood pitches in together, theyre all happy with him living here, but he also accommodates people in the event you get another rocket incoming. Pete many in. Joey thanks, mike. All right. The people of israel fighting for their very existence in the war against hamas. And americas top brass wont let the Biden Administration if forget it. More than a hundred retired generals have sign an open letter calling for the president , President Biden, and congress to, quote, Work Together in a bipartisan manner to continue giving israel the support it needs militarily, diplomatically, logistically and with intelligence for as long as it needs to defend itself and eliminate those threats. Our next guest was proud to sign that letter himself, retired general david perkins, served as the commander of the Army Training and doctrine command. He joins us now. General, thank you for joining us. Explain to me what this letter hopes to accomplish. Well, you know, ill tell you the, i know just about everybody that has signed that letter. Thats the first time ive ever signed a letter like this. I, myself like everyone on there, theyre very apolitical, very nonpartisan, but theyre all great patriots, and they understand National Security as well as anybody else. Theyve dedicated 30 or 40 years of their life. And we understand well, or most of us have served together in combat and had to fight terrorists, and we understand that if you give terrorists sanctuary, if you give them a place to plan and prepare and if you allow them to be armed as the iranians arm a hamas, its just a matter of time til they export that terrorism. And we saw that on 9 11 with alqaeda and the attack on the United States. So we know very much that you cannot let terrorists have a sanctuary. And what we saw hamas do is a result of them having a sanctuary. So those of us that a signed the letter are very concerned, obviously, about israel, but we also understand for the Greater Global Community you cannot give terrorists a free reign, otherwise they will metastasize around the world. Joey general, looking at this letter, what is the reason for sending this letter if the Biden Administration says theyre already doing these things . Was there a catalyst for this, or was this just to reiterate from a community of former leaders . I think its to are reinforce whats going on now. The administration is being very supportive. Two Carrier Groups are there, a lot of other activity is going on intelligence wise. Theyre getting support in congress. But we know, those who have served and served in what all consider maybe drawnout campaigns, that attention, energy and support does tend to wane over time. Joey sure, yeah. And especially if theres collateral damage. And i will tell you having fought in an urban environment, the idf will work very hard to minimize Collateralling Damage unlike hamas, but there will be damage. And when that happens, support starts to wane. And so we as professionals who have sort of lived this life just want to reinforce that you really have to be ready for the long haul, and you have to have that light at the end of the tunnel that you are going to destroy hamas capability to export terrorism. Joey i look at this list, i see general dunford, general amos, General Mattis that i served under and know. These are generals and yourself that won big battles. But maybe politicians have to lose helped you lose a war. I think the idea of support waning is really an important part of this, so thank you for signing on to this letter and reiterating it to the administration. Yeah, my pleasure. Joey thank you, general. All right, coming up, new calls to expel hamas propagandists in congress as our next guest introduces Legislation To Defund Colleges over antiisrael sentiments.

Pete members of the socialist Squad Gathering in our Nations Capital yesterday calling for a ceasefire as israel fights Hamas Terrorists in gaza. A ceasefire now to save lives. We cannot continue to stand idly by numb as we watch this death toll climb. We stand here today the calling for a ceasefire because all life is precious. Where is your humanity . Where is your outrage . Where is your care . For people . Rachel senator tim scott now calling for their expulsion, adding that the u. S. Cannot continue Funding Terrorists by sending money to iran. Joey he joins us now with more. Senator, welcome to the show. Youre running for president morning. Joey we need a speaker in our house. We interviewed, actually, a member of Congress Earlier about that idea that if we had a speaker of the house right now, maybe they could take action. But running for president , as president , would you be calling for members of congress to be expelled . Listen, certainly the entire American People want those members of the squad expelled, and certainly as a president of the United States i would want them out of congress or at least taken all their responsibilities away. Listen, we cannot have people, the squad, as a propaganda, part of the Propaganda Machine of hamas. You cannot have a Palestinian Flag Flying On American Property especially in the House Of Representatives. We are sending the the worst message i could think of. You just saw, We Saw October The 7th Hamas come into israel and burn babies alive. We saw beheadings. We saw grandmothers taken, women raped and the response is to ask israel for a ceasefire . I hope israel wipes hamas off the face of the earth. Im going to tell you, americas blessings in part come from psalms 122 sln 6 or or 122 6, pray for the people of israel. Romans 13 4 speaks to of the rath of god brought upon people the wrath of god brought upon people who do evil. I cant think of anything more evil than the pictures of those burned little babies and to have the squad tell people to have a ceasefire, to have the squad keep up a tweet that says that israel was responsible for 500 deaths at a hospital even though it is proven to be a lie, i find their actions despicable. I find their conduct disgusting. I find their presence as a part of the House Of Representatives antithetical to what we stand for as a nation. Not as republicans, not as democrats, but as americans. We stand against hate, and thats exactly why i am leading on legislation that eliminates funding for universities that say it is acceptable for their students to call for genocide. It is acceptable for their students to support terrorism. Its acceptable for their students to support murder. You have free speech, but you cant be an a idiot. So i think pulling the funding, the pell grants from colleges and universities that support that kind of malignant behavior is in the best interests of every single Good American who understands that Funding Colleges should be for the education of our kids, not for the indoctrination of our kids. Pete yeah. You can be an idiot in america, we just shouldnt have to pay for it. Exactly. First amendment right. You have the right to finish. Pete to teach these kids, it is amazing to watch the passionate ilhan omar two weeks later when there was no passion when israelis were murdered in their homes. And i didnt hear them say a single thing about bringing our hostages home. Let american hostages go. I didnt hear anything from the squad telling hamas, the murderous, evil terrorists, to let americans go. I didnt hear a single word from them telling them to let the israelis go. If you want peace in the middle east, how about have the squad rachel yeah. And i didnt hear those calls to release american hostages from any of the protests going around at the universities. I have to tell you, senator scott, im so encouraged that i just think we should defund all these universities. They have all become indoctrination machines. We should stop, you know, we should start taxing those endowments and and giving them all the favors that they get because everything thats bad with america right now whether its, you know, this situation of, you know, rich white kids, you know, supporting Hamas All The Way to gender ideology and Everything Else thats happening in our country, it all starts with these universities, especially our ivy leagues. Youre exactly right. And one of the things i find challenging is if you believe in a hundred genders, you have freedom of speech. If you want to speak about your faith and your love for jesus on a college campus, somehow thats called hate and you lose your First Amendment rights. We as a nation, there are good people on both sides of the aisle. I frankly heres what i believe, i believe that joe biden cant even be honest about any positions because hes beholden to the squad. Political power is more important than doing the right thing for the radical left. Control is more important than doing the right thing. And, frankly, theyll use race, class and even genocide from the squad in order to hold on to political power. And it is disgusting. Pete senator rachel and they invoke scripture as a well which, you know, coming from these, you know, radical, proabortionists, im not going to be scripture lectured by them. Unbelievable. Rachel all good stuff. Thank you, senator scott. Pete thank you very much, sir. God bless. Rachel you got it. Joey still ahead, smoke rises in gaza where Israeli Forces are striking that has Hamas Terrorists this morning. Cotowner of save our allies, my friend tim kennedy, joins us live from the ground next. Pete were returning in a moment to our breaking coverage of the war in israel, but first some quick headlines including this. The manhunt intensifies for the suspect accused of gunning down a Maryland Judge in his own driveway. The u. S. Marshals are offering a 10,000 reward for information heeding to his arrest. The Target Attack on judge wilkinson, weve identified pedro argute, 49 of frederick, maryland, as a suspect. He is not in custody and is considered armed and dangerous. Pete Washington County sir Circuit Court judge Andrew Wilkinson was town outside his home thursday hours after the judge ruled against the suspect in a child custody case. And a marine shot and killed at camp lejeune has been identified as a North Carolina teen. Lance Corporal Austin schwenk was killed and shot on wednesday in a barracks room. Base officials placed a second marine in custody on suspicion. The victim reportedly joined because he wanted to follow in his marine fathers footsteps. Sad. Joey the the rafah Border Crossing opening briefly this morning allowing 20 truckloads of humanitarian aid to enter. Pete but our next guest is on the ground in israel and warns the aid is going straight to Hamas Terrorists. Rachel are retired army ranger and cofounder of save our allies tim kennedy joins us now. Tim, you sound pretty certain that that humanitarian aid is not going to the children and women and hospitals that need it in gaza. Explain why. After 20 years, you know, during the global war on terror, weve fought nearly every single insurgency on the planet, alqaeda, isis, the taliban, hamas, hezbollah, isisk, the list goes on and on and on, and ultimately, the recipe ends up being exactly the same. Theyre different feathers of the exact same bird, and anything that comes in or out of gaza is controlled by hamas. Hamas is a terrorist insurgency. So thats just how it operates. They are going to use all those ree supplies for their military thats going to be fighting or killing the hostages and civilians that are in that region. Joey tim, youre there to get americans home that want to come home. Do you have any idea what number of people that is . Are there hundreds, thousands, dozens . I mean, that is a great question. On average, you know, if you go to the cia data book, youll see anywhere from 1020,000 americans travel to israel per day during peak seasons. So youre going to average that, you have, you know, i think during this time of year theres 12,000 americans traveling here a day. So the day of the attack theres somewhere between 4070,000 americans that were here at that time. So the initial five days after the evacuation the number of requests for americans to be evacuated and the available flights, because nobody knew what direction this was going to go. Are we talking total World War Iii right now, or is this somewhat of a longterm, stable conflict . Nobody knew. So it has change radically. With the Department Of State really stepping up in the past few days to help during the exfil, you know, the remaining americans here, theyre not in urgency to leave. There are plenty of flights that need to leave that can leave, so theres not, like, the same amount of pressure for americans to get out. Pete so this the has been a different experience for you than what you experienced, obviously, in afghanistan but also in ukraine. It took some time, but the footing is underneath us now to get american, out if they want to get out. Yeah. Its definitely different, you know in thank god the talibans not executing people where with were seeing babies in barbed wire like we did there. Lets be really clear, hamas tortured, raped and murdered 80 of the 1400 victims were tortured, raped or murdered by hamas before they died. Every one of those hostages that are in there, every single moment its torture to be in there. Im in this beautiful street in tel aviv, theres people walking their dogs, but at any second the cybers could go sirens could go off as another rocket is launched. 40 of the rockets launched out of gaza land back in gaza. Theyre literally killing 40 of the rockets sent land back in gaza. Theyre killing their own people. Hamas does not care. This is an insurgency, they are terrorists, and the damage that they do is indescribable. Joey tim, i know there are americans actually in gaza, have you all been contacted about getting americans out of gaza . Yeah. Obviously thats a great question. For opsec, the best Military Units on the planet are here on the ground. Joey yeah. Lets leave that to the professional as. The ones that were assisting with are americans that are not hostages, theyre american americans that are not going to be refugees, they are there in a war capacity, and, you know, quite frankly, the American Government and the Department Of Defense have the heaviest hitters in the world on the ground right now. Joey yeah. And lets let the professionals do the professional work. You know, but the longer that we wait, hamas wants to get in a fight. Theyre waiting for the opportunity. And every second that we stand by as every single world leader is traveling in here, we are stuck, were giving them time to prepare for the Ground Assault that they so desperately want to happen. They want it. They want civilians and hostages to die because they want to keep this Propaganda Streak going. Pete tim or, weve only got about 30 seconds. Do you get a sense that Ground Invasion is imminent based on talking to the people youre talking to . Yes. I cant talk, say why its been postponed. The only way that those hostages are going to see a day of light is the most violent direct action, the most Elite Military Force can wring to the battle bring to the battle, that has to happen. I dont want to talk about the dire situation that theyre in, but it is absolutely crucial that this is a dog fight like stalingrad, like fallujah. Our men and and women and the brave idf soldiers go in there and give them the battle that they do not want which is the fiercest, most scariest type of war they would ever seen. Rachel all right. Tim kennedy, army ranger joey appreciate you, brother. Stay safe. Pete for more information, save our allies. Org is who tim is working with over there. Rachel see you tomorrow morning. Bye, even. Everybody. David well, before the Ground Offensive into g
