Lester Munson

Well, Lester, what do you make of that when we've heard the administration focus a lot on perhaps tactical successes, right?

We heard the defense secretary earlier today say 15,000 targets have been hit, but have they clearly communicated the objectives that have to be met in order for the timeline to be reached and us to see this conflict pull back?

Mr. Secretary, I want to ask you about some of the actions being put into motion when it comes to responding to the energy markets, including that earlier this week you said that domestic oil producers have told the administration that they're increasing output in shale basins.

Could you give us any more insight into who those producers are and what kind of increase we can expect from that response and on what sort of timeline?

You said, Mr. Secretary, that there's a lot of tools that the administration can invoke.

I'm wondering what's still on the table.

Could we see a federal gas tax holiday?

Could we see the invoking of the Jones Act or even a push to get higher ethanol content gasoline onto the market?

Just very quickly, Mr. Secretary, for clarity, has the administration intervened already when it comes to the oil futures market?

All right, Doug Burgum, U.S.

Secretary of the Interior, thank you so much for joining us.

Iran is important to both countries.

This is a significant part of what George W. Bush might have called the axis of evil.

Only Congress has the power to declare war.

Well, that's a wonderful question.

President Trump has indicated that he's got a lot of flexibility in what comes next in Iran.

He's looking for someone who can take charge of the Iranian government.

And it may be another Ayatollah.

It may be someone from the IRGC.

It may be what we would think of as a reform leader.
