09 Apr 2026

Transcription

Chapter 1: What is the current status of the ceasefire with Iran?

0.031 - 33.051 Unknown

Hi, I'm Greg Gutfeld, along with Emily Campagno, Harold Ford Jr., Jesse Waters, and she goes scuba diving in a fish tank. Dana Perino, The Five. Day two of Trump's temporary truce with Iran. Marine traffic through the Strait of Hormuz is steadily increasing with a third oil tanker passing through. And DJT telling NBC that he's very optimistic a deal will be cut with the mullahs.

But threatening things will get very painful if they don't play ball. Don is also railing against do-nothing NATO for sitting out on the sidelines. But the SecGen is trying to smooth it over, admitting that NATO was a bit slow on helping with the war and reminiscent about the good old days of daddy.

Chapter 2: How is NATO responding to the situation in Iran?

51.061 - 53.626 Greg Gutfeld

And then daddy has to sometimes use strong language.

0

53.767 - 57.735 Emily Compagno

Do you still consider him daddy after yesterday?

0

57.895 - 78.888 Greg Gutfeld

Well, on the daddy thing, this is a language problem. I was not calling him my daddy, but saying. But of course, daddy has also a special connotation. And now I have to live as this the rest of my life. And I own it, and the president owns it, because he brought out T-shirts, he made a movie, Daddy is Home, and he returned to the United States.

Chapter 3: What are the implications of Trump's statements on Iran?

78.908 - 89.78 Greg Gutfeld

This was so funny. And this is why I like him so much. But, hey, yeah, you make mistakes. And this is when you are not a native speaker. Sorry for that.

Meanwhile, the Democrats are pushing the 25th Amendment over Iran, which, get this, Dana, has only been used when someone resigned or when others got a camera up the caboose for a colonoscopy. The 25th Amendment must be invoked before it's too late.

106.843 - 110.007 Emily Compagno

Donald Trump is not fit to be commander in chief.

Chapter 4: Why is the Strait of Hormuz significant in this context?

110.067 - 113.111 Emily Compagno

He needs to be removed. Including but not limited to the 25th Amendment.

0

113.131 - 123.643 Unknown

Every member of Congress and Senator must be calling for Trump's removal. Do I think Donald Trump should be impeached? Absolutely. What the president is doing is bat crazy. Donald Trump.

Chapter 5: What role does the 25th Amendment play in the current political climate?

124.602 - 127.085 Unknown

who I believe is suffering from dementia at this point.

0

127.105 - 132.851 Harold Ford Jr.

We should impeach him. We should find a way to get cabinet members to invoke the 25th Amendment.

134.133 - 154.718 Unknown

Jerry Nather shouldn't be talking about health problems, man. He's a walking bedsore. All right, so, Jesse, only in 2026 America can you destroy the military of a rogue nation that's killed tens of thousands of people. And... A party in your country wants to kick you out of office for that.

0

Chapter 6: How is Iran's leadership impacting negotiations?

154.738 - 174.589 Unknown

I know. Well, we're not used to winning so fast. So I think they think that's crazy. You're supposed to fight wars forever. But I think what happened was the gay Ayatollah woke up from his coma and found out about bridge and power plant day and told his delegates to go cut a deal. And his delegates said, stop bombing and we'll open up the straight. So why is the straight open?

0

175.43 - 177.693 Unknown

It's because the gay Ayatollah doesn't run the country.

0

Chapter 7: What are the potential outcomes of the talks in Islamabad?

177.913 - 193.075 Unknown

The Republican Guard runs the country and the Republican Guard lost the war. But they know the last leverage they have is the straight and they need to make money from it. The toll fees, the oil kickbacks. So we're sitting there and it's closed because the insurance companies won't underwrite it.

0

193.555 - 206.515 Unknown

So Trump needs to solve it either militarily, diplomatically or get some of the NATO navies to come sail in. Why aren't they? The Brits have a Navy. It might be rusty, but like, let's go exercise it.

Chapter 8: How do cultural differences affect diplomatic relations with Iran?

206.535 - 225.568 Unknown

Let's see if it works. The French have one. Let's do it. So I don't want to break NATO. I just want to strengthen it. We actually do need NATO. We need bases in the Mediterranean so you can project power into the Middle East. And plus, there are like biggest trading allies. So you need to have some sort of military alliance there.

225.548 - 249.717 Unknown

The Democrats saying that Trump needs to be 25th doesn't make any sense. The cabinet 25s, the president, the Congress doesn't even do that. They're mad because Trump said he was going to destroy the civilization. What they don't understand is that's the language of the region. Trump talks like a... Persian strongman. That's the kind of language they understand. Strength, respect, honor.

250.398 - 271.147 Unknown

He's actually more culturally attuned to that neighborhood than the Democrats are. He's been in business with Muslims for decades. He's done deals with wealthy Arabs in Manhattan since the 80s. He's been there in the Middle East. He actually was the first trip he took after the first attack. The second time he got elected or is it the third time he got elected? I forget.

0

271.227 - 292.182 Unknown

Sometimes it gets confusing. So they don't understand that. And thank God you have someone that can make that point and drive it home because it drove them to the negotiating table. Imagine Kamala Harris as commander in chief. They would totally disrespect her. And I would not. Support that. Good for you. You're a patriot. I am.

0

292.603 - 312.677 Unknown

You know, Dana, Jesse brings up that whole point of communication between cultures. There is something about this 10-point agreement that Trump might understand. Nobody issues a 10-point agreement if you won. And the first point being, please stop kicking our ass. So it's clear that Iran knows they lost. But it's also a face-saving statement.

312.657 - 327.94 Unknown

It's like you got to let them you got to allow them a way to kind of like pick up their things and go home. Yeah, I think that's true. Although one of the things I noted yesterday that I thought Caroline did a very good job of was to say that plan that they put forward is a non-starter.

328.241 - 350.207 Unknown

She said that they actually came up with another plan, another list, another 10-point list, but nobody's seen that list. However, I'm sure J.D. Vance and Whitcoff and Jared have seen it, and they're looking over it, and they have the talks that are going to happen on Saturday. And progress, at some point, will have to be either made or not made. I mean, progress is going to happen either way.

351.068 - 366.559 Unknown

Progress in meaning that the Strait of Hormuz will open, and that's progress, and there's a movement forward. Or there's progress in getting the Strait of Hormuz open in a different way. Those are the only two options at this point. But it will be visible. I want to say on the 25th Amendment thing,

366.539 - 385.988 Unknown

You see that bat signal and it all goes out and then all of a sudden everybody's saying it on the same day. So then check their small dollar contributions today. I would bet that they did some sort of poll test that said, if you just say that he needs to be 25th Amendment and then, you know, if Johnny went out and asked people, what is the 25th Amendment?
