Deal to prevent iran from developing Nuclear Weapons is expected to go through, and this week it has garbered enough stepth support to withstand any opposition in congress. That obviously did not silence either cruz or trump today. If i win the presidency, i guarantee you that those four prisoners are back in our country before i ever take office, i guarantee that. They will be back before i ever take office because they know thats what has to happen, okay . They know it, and if they dont know it, im telling them right now. So, i have a story that just came out an hour ago, and as president obama calls him very routinely, he calls him the supreme leader. Our president is calling the person who is really the boss in Iran Supreme Leader and i look at people shaking their head and they cant believe it, but it just came out a little while ago he said israel will not exist in 25 years, think of that.

The search and rescue part of this operation. There will still, of course, be an extensive search for answers, but in terms of locating survivors which was certainly the hope, it seems from the fell maybes that will rescue part of the operation will be wrapped up. We know 33 people were on board this vessel that started to make its way from jacksonville on tuesday bound for puerto rico. It lost contact on thursday.

Pete . The director of the fbi and a very unusual case here, the Justice Department filing public criminal charges against seven men in iran that it says were computer hackers working for two companies that did work for the iranian government, including the Iranian Revolutionary guard. What the charges say and they will actually be naming these individuals and showing their mugshots. This is very unusual. They say that they targeted several american banks and did whats known as a denial of service attacks. Flooding the banks with incoming messages that prevented Bank Customers from getting online around 2012, 2013. Some of the banks were capital one, nasdaq and bank of america and the stock exchange.
