And this was the criticism too, Patrick.

A guy posted a comment like, oh, we're supposed to believe that people just walk out of the White House and walk up to this criminal and tell him classified defense secrets.

And I'm like, yeah, that's exactly what you should believe because that's what happened.

So I've got friends all over Washington.

I've been in Washington for 44 years, right?

We're all neighbors and we hang out together.

I'm the only person in my church who's not a retired colonel or lieutenant colonel in the military.

Seriously.

It's like a VFW meeting at church every Sunday.

And so, yeah, a friend of mine said, hey, listen, there's some shit going on at the White House.

I said, yeah, what are you hearing?

He said, we really are going to attack Iran.

Military.

And I said, well, wait a minute, wait a minute.

I said, I've been really hedging my language here.

And what I've been saying, this is what I told him.

What I've been saying is, one of the very first lessons that I learned at the CIA is that if you want to determine American military intentions, watch naval movements.

You know, we can fly troops out all over the place.

It doesn't make any difference.

If you're going to send an entire aircraft carrier strike group, you mean business.
