Donald J. Trump

It's Monday, 13 October, in the year of our Lord 2025.

It is Columbus Day here in the United States of America, of course.

Dramatic.

Let's go ahead and put the footage.

We've got some amazing footage of...

Hostage Square in Tel Aviv.

We've got footage of Reem Air Force Base where the hostages are actually currently seven have already been released.

Also other spots in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.

We have with us this morning, we're going to have Kurt Mills from the American Conservative.

Our own Ben Harnwell.

international editor live in Rome, the great Jack Posobiec pulling an overnight shift here with us.

Joel Gilbert in Los Angeles, an expert filmmaker, an expert on the Middle East.

But I want to start with Matt Faraci, who's actually live in Jerusalem.

Matt, put in context what this day, this is over a two-year war, right?

coming off the most brutal slaughter the Jews have had since the Holocaust, very contentious, this war in Jerusalem, in Israel, kind of torn about these, the nation's torn apart really about the hostages and how the situation was handled, how the war was prosecuted.

But what does today mean with the President of the United States about to arrive in,

in Jerusalem on Air Force One to meet Netanyahu, welcome some hostages back, and then address the Israeli nation at the Knesset, sir.

Good morning, Steve.

Great to be with you.

We are here in Jerusalem on Jaffa Street.
