Two months ago, President Biden on national television said Russian President Vladimir Putin is "a killer." Now with his face-to-face meeting with the Kremlin boss just a day out, he's walking that statement back and other unflattering characterizations of Putin. President Biden just called Putin "a worthy adversary." Jordan and the rest of the Sekulow team - including ACLJ Senior Counsel for Global Affairs Mike Pompeo - discuss the latest on President Biden's international tour and the implications it has for future American foreign policy. All this and more today on Sekulow .

Hello no longer a quote killer as Biden calls him a worthy adversary. Talk about that interesting life from Washington DC line 1 questions right now: 1-800-684-3110 and now your hose present by the leaders. The leadership that rubs the European Union. Don't expect to hear it. A lot of that this could be groundbreaking. Most that usually odd trade tariffs. It's important, but of course this is a lot of the whole focus of horses out tomorrow with this stuff five hour as five hours of it put aside to specifically beat between present Biden and Pres. food. They will have. I think this one aid, each with them is what Wells translators, but I get so in a very private meeting without a joint press conference at the end which means you will not get both leaders kind of back-and-forth tried to explain what they how they interpreted the meaning and the key points of the meeting. Instead, what we been told is that, yet again, for maybe the third time on this trip it was. He does what today we will get a press conference for a load so low I present Biden and if yesterday was any indication that may be multiple hours delay and only five after all that, the way he only answered five questions were the first press conference. You said I can't take anymore because the by staff would get mad at me yesterday easily taking five questions and one of those questions.

It goes back to this present by is called Vladimir Putin a killer. He's also called Solis they called it killer a back this was just back a couple months ago exactly 2 months ago to the day. Actually we target George Stephanopoulos take a list because it's very strong rhetoric killer who do so will price must pay the price is going to pay will you will see shortly.

Okay so yeah I do think he's a killer. Now he were being told he's a worthy adversary that is now the language be used by body is stepping away from that taken was this armor, Putin laughed at the suggestion that you had called him the killer is still your beliefs are that he is a killer. I'm laughing to look when I was asked that question on-air I answer honestly, but is not much of 100 auto think it matters a whole lot in terms of this next meeting were about to have one again this week to ways to interpret the word. When you turn a world leader there killer okay.

Is there actually a killer like a bad person who kills people as people poised to give the list goes on and on, or that there killer this is that they are a strong leader, tough leader I meet. So if you get this Bob laughing about it to Tybalt.

I relish with former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo of course got a lot of expertise and world affairs but but but as we kind of big begin the broadcast. Today I want you to understand the contrast is walking in your the lead up to to all this you know it when there was not a meeting around quarter. He's called them names he securely save get you these killer yeah I do things.

A killer is is again get out now is a worthy adversary. This is the river Biden comes from the political party that has been obsessed with Russ to have truck grades it said the divorce is out of session with with Russia always at the at the forefront. There's their chance and get that he searching a prisoner swaps with with with Russia.

The list goes audit on about how problematic it already appears leading to this media proving the Dort Street to pipeline the list goes audit on but to be talking about this.

Discuss.

Get to. How do you believe present by will handle Pres. Putin of Russia. Give us a call one 800 684 31 to the 2000 684-3110. Certainly his biggest board policy test challenges facing Americans were substantial time in our valley freedoms or constitutional rights are under attack more important than ever to stay with the American Center for Law and Justice for decades ACLJ has been on the frontlines protecting your freedoms defending your rights in court in Congress to get in the public arena and we have an exceptional track record of success.

Here's the bottom line we could not do our work without your support, we remain committed to protecting your religious and constitutional freedoms then remains our top priority, especially now during these challenging times. The American Center for Law and Justice is on your side, you're already a member.

Thank you. If you're not well this is the perfect time to stand with us. ACLJ.org where you can learn more about her life changing become a member today ACLJ only one.

A society can agree that the most vulnerable and voiceless to protect.

Is there any hope for that culture to survive. And that's exactly what you are saying when you stand with the American Center for Law and Justice, defendant the right to life, we've created a free and powerful publication offering a panoramic view of the ACLJ's battle for the unborn, called mission like it will show you how you are personally like support and publication includes a look at all major ACLJ pro-life cases were fighting for the rights of pro-life activists.

The ramifications of Roe V Wade, 40 years later Planned Parenthood's role in emotion and what Obama care means to the pro-life discover many ways your membership in the ACLJ is empowering the right to question your free copy of mission life today online ACLJ/Jay Sekulow. We are to your phone calls to one 800 684 31 to the question, how do you believe Joe Biden will handle Vladimir Putin and again at these Americans you would hope that our present regardless of our political persuasion would go away and be tough to put America's interest first, I want you to call that America first or not putting America's interest first should not should always be that the first the first idea of the American President that the label it as baguette you at the labels America first Guidry but I get putting America's interest first. But I want to go back and get this idea that that into the the early months of the Biden administration. So what about March Joe Biden had no problem agree with rhetoric like killer and and not really defining it out and it is actual killer like try to poison opposition leaders abroad or or you be just a strong man I did in the doubt now is a worthy adversary you once said that he looked to the Putin's eyes and saw that he was Solis recently is that strong rhetoric to use with your back to sit down across the table from that individual who is show their longevity inside their own country. They have weathered storms, weathered opposition attempts to try to have them removed weathered the laws of their countries had their laws changed in their country.

And so again I think it I want to play this that that the no soul bite as well because it all provides context for what Joe Biden is walk you to using this kind of rhetoric sounds like you're pretty tough and pretty strong.

Then you gotta put that into action. And so, take a listen in it and it will talk about what price must pay will pay a price. I went along talking I when we try I know relatively well and I the conversation started off I said I know you and you know me if I establish this occurred then be prepared. He said you know he doesn't have a soul. I did say that to them.

Yes to and his response was we understand one another, but I would be a wise guy was alone with him in his office. That's how it came about. It was when President Bush and said I looked in his eyes and saw so I said look, your eyes, and I don't think you have a soul in the progress that we understand each other.

You get to put regular AA if it if that's how that occurred. I pretty strong response right back. But again, this idea that he is accepting of a person does has also is that how Job I'd see somebody put their country first is the idea that you if you put your all these world leaders, the good words. The worst what's the bad, the genocidal like that the President tried there all putting their country.

First, the interest of that weight may be a political party. We may not the way they put their country first may not jive with how you think you would do that but in their mind. That's what they're there to do Chinese interest Russian interest.

It should be American interests, but I want to go out to RRT because you know Westwood you hear others rhetoric building up within then it starts being pulled back into the just worthy adversary. I began Joe Biden again. I was with a history lesson under his vice presidency for Kate to call the play for but under his vice presidency, a part of a sovereign country was annexed by this quote worthy adversary. I find that that term worthy adversary extremely troubling and present advises he was using that as for the baseball analogy, this is not baseball is far more serious than that and worthy is not appropriate when talking about an adversary like Vladimir Putin, especially your talk about national security and some of the most serious aspect of international relations.

Look at who Putin is, as you mentioned just now. He invaded Ukraine recently threatened to invade them again. Russia still has weapons and vehicles on the border with Ukraine as we speak this morning. 13,000 people have died their Crimea courses gone for the first time in history, Russia has it has a warm water major military base on the Mediterranean. Thanks to Syria.

There's another one possibly being constructed in Libya.

They now have nuclear capable bombers in Syria. They just placed ahead of the summit 20 new Russian military units on the border with our NATO allies in Europe.

Russia just signed an agreement with Iran, giving them access to a satellite system that they can use in their missile and weapons program. The course this is not even talking about the cyber attacks from Russia, and Russia. In fact, with the cyber attack shut down the entire power grid in Ukraine in many security analysts think that was a test to see whether not they could do it with another adversary in the future, possibly the United States so he is an adversary to be sure.

I think worthy is a real misnomer a serious misnomer and is well any anti-this idea again tough rhetoric before Izzy killer yeah I call I told him to his face you got no soul, and food. Said well he should understand revamping supposedly that that was how this goes. That if if you could put off this kind of idea, but then you balk from having a press conference at retirement as my Pompeo but he says he's not giving a press conference with food, because he doesn't want to give a platform to elevated but the US, we now know, was the country that requested this five hour meeting between Biden and Putin.

So we have elevated mood is on ABC News he sitting down with American media. He's not afraid of taking questions from the press and yet again, Biden bides excuse for this time I meet you confuse that with with Boris Johnson out, why not have that be what what why was there not a joint press conference with our strongest ally.

You know I the UK. That certainly was a because you're worried about getting a platform. The way that Joe Biden having Ted to respond to these leaders but the idea again that he uses all the right rhetoric and then leading up to the meeting right before the meeting and the hee hee box box for all that rhetoric and now just a worthy adversary things like at the complaint turned down from his original attitude that this was a killer and a soulless person and now all of a sudden he simply worthy adversary but it's this idea of this cosmopolitanism that is so endemic in the Democratic Party and in the mind of Joe Biden. He is happy the 12 leaders of the EU of the NATO people said yes go see him.

That's a good thing. What's a good is good for America. That's what we need to look at Putin goes into this meeting thinking one thing. What is important and what is good and what is valid for Russia. My country and whether it's killing or selflessness.

That's how he is going to react. He is not going to react to overtures from the present United States that are halfhearted. My fear is that the President is going to come off with respective Putin very poorly because he does not have the card that Pres. Trump displayed so prominently and so successfully. And that is the United States of America.

First, last and always. This is you, if you don't have that if you don't have that in your arsenal.

If you don't have that in your mindset. If you are not determined and dependent upon that precept, then you're going to be a disaster.

In any debate with a person who was a KGB agent who has survived all kinds of political intrigue in Russia and who continues to be the strong man in the former Soviet Union, which I don't know how former it really is having a person of Putin at its head was unique to Joe Biden thought it was appropriate that while overseas. It you know there's always a stalking incident number 10 sprocket. I would hope our President would succeed. I've been very clear about that with Joe Biden include including Joe Biden at one America bear stopped at the world level or being taken advantage of the world level, regardless of the partisan politics, but he would partisan yesterday. He was he was bashing internal GOP politics and his press conference following the NATO alliance summit again. He was taking it in the five questions that he did take.

He took the bait right for reporter inserted bashing America from abroad. The exact opposite of what you should be doing and we get your people to criticism for bashing US Presidents with their abroad and that he starts bashing his political opponents in the United States. Wait a peaceful little opposition at Ed and Eddie tugged by GOP dysfunction in your name and even at her healthiest our way of government actually is a good thing when you're on our shores to be able to have an internal scuffle to some extent when you're overseas preparing to interact with one of the chief adversaries in the real world.

That's where the President of the United States focus needs to be there needs to be a unified message, a clearly that's not the case. Look, I would tell you Jordan, as he's about ready to go in and talk to a Mr. Putin. I would hope that he's thinking about their interaction with Iran. I would hope that he's thinking about the fact that Vladimir Putin just said look yeah we we want to partner with Iran and the reason that it's okay is because you told us it's okay to do it in your around deal here here's my concern. Jordan, I think this President once a redo of the Obama administration policies and if that's the case I think we got a long enough track record tenant to tell aware that's can ago. That's where his focus needs to be leave the internal politics for when he returns home or we come back, former Secretary of State and senior counsel for global affairs. The ACLJ my Pompeo will be joining us. So I get you noticed that as well as us lead up to the Biden who meeting tomorrow in Geneva as well will take your phone calls 100 684 31 to the 2064 3110 very back only one. A society can agree that the most vulnerable invoice is certainly protective. Is there any hope for that culture to survive.

And that's exactly what you are saying when you stand with the American Center for Law and Justice, defendant the right to life, we've created a free powerful publication offering a panoramic view of the ACLJ's battle for the unborn Gold edition like it will show you how you are personally fully supports and publication includes a look at all major ACLJ pro-life cases were fighting for the rights of pro-life activists.

The American Center for Law and Justice is on your side, you're already a member thinking you're not well this is the perfect time to stand with us. ACLJ.org where you can learn more about her life changing become a member today ACLJ secular driver, senior counsel for global affairs, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Sec. The bat we got a major international focus this week with the present Biden overseas. His first major international trip. A lot of things already completed and I wouldn't get before you get into Russia at the meeting tomorrow. I kind of your assessment of this trip so far from what we can gather.

I consider there's been so lack of any kind of media access didn't see the usual press conference with the UK Prime Minister. We are good to see that with food will talk about that in a little bit but but so far with that with the meeting at with the G7 with the NATO meeting today with the EU.

How would you grade this so far. We note Jordan. A lot of folks are grinning it on a tone I always evaluate on substance that I've seen almost nothing. I think that's what the reasons are addressing this press conferences that had very little that they've made progress on that.

It's not surprising present Biden made clear that he wanted to just talk about America being back back to what we did for these last eight years. That was the central thesis of this trip that raising the green new deal to the top priority for the American foreign policy. I think that's what we see Africa haven't seen an awful lot. Maybe. Maybe it's the case trip. Maybe they say they like Pres. Biden better, but only because he is left progressive socialist economic I just like they are. He wants to be part of this international crowd mizzen protecting America first type I always preferred would be respected rather than like it's fairly easy to be liked as secretary Pompeo would with this group knows whether it is the G7 whether it is NATO, whether it is again the EU that where were opening up the checkbooks again and kind of, and not with a lot of strategic thought behind it. But just as you said, going back to the way things were done so. Hey, if all the countries the grant say America is about start write big checks again. Whether it's repairs climb the court grew more more climate change money but but but to flood our ideas and ensure that you say we love America, get because Americans got the check but I agree with you always thought we were respected not to say love, but respected. We got a lot more done. Add to what I think that's exactly right. Don't forget to Europeans are just as excited as heck as are the Russians and the Chinese that were sitting in Vienna negotiate with the Iranians, they want to get back into this nuclear deal for awfully long time so they now have a partner prepared to do an enormous about a destruction between the United States and Israel, and frankly their their work will put at risk all the great work we did with the Abraham accords as well. But those are the things that the Europeans would get along with a progressive Democrat President not surprising that they all are backslapping and shaking hands week we were about get it done where about securing American freedom.

We did that we we put the brakes on a pipeline that was going to undermine everything.

It was we are trying to do with American independence and they say Joe Biden was happy to hand that back over to the Russians into the Middle East about Duke by the American worker. Certainly much more of a European model so it's unsurprising that he's gotten a warm reception from these folks yeah you tomorrow big shift. This is not it. So you get your way from your allies your way from the associate natural allies of G7 or an NATO and then with the EU today, but did tomorrow with food five hours very limited staff very limited and media access.

We've Artie been told no joint press conference. He's gonna come out and answer some questions if that's anything like yesterday I that could be used as few as five questions that the present United States is asked. I would think you would someone's been using rhetoric like killer add soulless when he looks into his eyes and he claims he said that the fiber foods facing him and again and no one is disputing with the spoon as a disputed that he can have his comeback on his own but this idea get of this excuse they're using is one that I get.

They would use to criticize the administration you served, which is well if you do a joint press conference food which after the summit, which we asked for as the United States, you're giving him a platform I celebrated BC this so I think he's arty been utilizing platform of the meeting and it just seems to be like. If you can't you can't use that excuse with why you would do with Boris Johnson.

So why now are you afraid to come out of a meeting with Vladimir Putin and talk about what you're worthy adversary as he said how you interpret that move from the T because you were the America's top diplomat or doing. It was pretty looks pretty weak to me that she can't stand at a podium and make a case you disagree a lot with President Clinton. I'm sure that the by the ministration will as well but you can't defend by making the case for America why it is that support that America get this right would likely stay showed up. Having already met and unloaded all the leverage we had. They reentered a nuclear deal called, they start they got nothing from the Russian sport. They took sanctions off some of Vladimir Putin's friends all the leverage that had been created so they could get the Russians to cooperate on these important issues that they shut down an American pipeline from Russia. Goodness gracious.

This is a place that calls for strength joint last thing I'd say is I do worry you talked with some of the language.

The Pres. Biden is used pretty tough call them a killer.

The Russians are going to be scared away by words that are going to see the weakness of American F are not resolved if we don't do the kinds of things we did for four years and the drop administration to impose real cost when they behave badly and reward them when they did the things that made sense for America if it's just about rhetoric and trying to look tougher be top bar act like a tougher that's gonna fail. It's really dangerous fishing things, watching Chairman Kim is watching. The Iranians are watching. If we are weak with the Russians the whole world will see it question, that is, is there a way to write this you think you fit this. This seems to be that the other beatings when they were happier open to your checkbook again and we'll see how that kind of develops per week we get very short very's limited on what actually was accomplished that the communicator came out was very bland and excluding edits criticism of China but is any way for him to write this onrush should you think that you're going or outward to scan like at the end of this were to be single hooded hoodie who you believe you want to believe your President about how things how things went, but it can be tough when he's backing away from even that tougher rhetoric look in the attic can only be righted by real actions, things like we did like defend by the radiance that the Ukrainians to defend themselves supporting all the nations with their working gas. Russian Milan influence in Syria buzzing real cost billing out there that states military at providing American energy to compete with Russian energy. All the actions that we talk, not words but actions we took. You can only write this if are prepared to defend American values that I must say when I hear him talk about going back when he uses that language about America being back we know what that means. That's America apologizing. It's America.

Being fearful is not America being strong in securing our freedom you launch to this.

My final question tonight and we got about a bit left to be launcher cannot Pack which is typically American values pack and in this is that you send the release there and also you refers to time as in the US Army, the Calvary, but the idea get the the you you you you want to engage. I know you travel the country and and now you started organizations Pack CAV pack PAC.com organization so that you can assist those candidates directly, your like my days as a young soldier in the cab ride to the sound of the guns that fought fearlessly. That's what America needs to build out an organization to help candidates all across the country from from city Council and County commission all the way up to the United States Senate will help the most conservative candidate we can find when we want to go back to the ideas that our founders understood about freedom to think that the ACLJ stands for all of those things will be at the center of the fight they Can bring a multiple of the really good work in the November 22. We will shorten Pres. Biden's runway agree love.

I love the fact that youth from the city Council meetings to present to support the work ACLJ always like PAC.com. Check it out.

The sick pay pump for decades ACLJ has been on the frontlines of protecting your freedom is defending your rights in court in Congress and in the public arena. The American Center for Law and Justice is on your side.

If you're already a member thinking. If you're not well this is the perfect time to stand with us, ACLJ.org, where you can learn more about our life-changing work, member today ACLJ live from Washington DC secular and secular sick everything so much great information here for now, I see your house for global affairs Mike Pompeo, would you break down to get at is someone who served as America's top diplomat you break down head of how this is all. Why are we not seeing joint press conferences.

Why are we seeing anything more than just hate glad you're back here at the table with your checkbook. America and I thought that was issued say that he thought that there was so little substance which again .3 back to that press conference yesterday, which was delayed two hours he only took five questions and one of those questions uses an opportunity to attack what was going on back at home in domestic politics between you know what's happening internally with Republicans about what's happening with Democrats. We have a group of them defending terrorist organizations, and add your Democrat leadership is not only defending them now has gone out on the offensive for them because Excel don't call them the bomb squad, why not. I don't think that any that would necessarily be so upset by being included with that group. They that they they certainly are not the America first squad think they certainly want to criticize everyone, but this idea I did that when you are brought as an American leader. It's not necessary. The time or the place to take pot shots at the opposition political party focus on the bigger issues about the commander-in-chief that that's what I get back to an end fan.

I would either you in Washington.

The partisan politics day-to-day. That's part of Washington as part of politics with these leaders go abroad. It's supposed to be about the bigger issues that America faces around the world.

It's not supposed to be a time for them to take their blood press conference. There the sick to press coverage they do in one of those five questions.

They used to try and enslave Republicans and add to it.

Talk about domestic politics. Jordan is gotta be about that. I mean this is one of the biggest jobs at the commander-in-chief, the President of the United States has its to be the lead diplomat for the United States with other world leaders and as I listen to your conversation with Sec. Pompeo there. There are really two components of it than really worried about. He talked about how when he hears bring US back. He's afraid about what that means. Loki I look at the comments from Vladimir Putin and I think Vladimir Putin agrees with that except when he hears bring US back what he hears is bring back the policies of the Obama administration because I flourished under those I was able to partner with Iran.

I like the JC POA. So forget to bring that United States back will look, I'm all for it. The second thing I heard Jordan a really related to something you open the broadcast with every other world leader on that stage is putting the interest of their country first and appropriately so. Jordan that's what these summits are all about countries coming together and putting forward the interest of their country advocating for the interest of their people. Jordan, if the United States is not doing that were literally the only country in the world on that stage. That isn't doing it.

So if if our leaders knocking to do it. Nobody is going to do it because Vladimir Putin of course is knocking up with the interest of the American people first.

Neither is any other world leader on that station to bring the US back yet.

Maybe to the policies of the Obama administration and Jordan somebody has to advocate for America. It's gotta be the US President because nobody else will we come back were so take the Boyer phone calls to one 800 684 30 would say that you believe that after here for Secretary of State.

A Pompeo and and and as big discuss is so weak I do believe that there is any way that Pres. Biden comes out of this communicating clearly to our present Putin to put America first or by capitulating already on the pipeline with Germany Northside Street to pipe lighter is other issues likely the hacks and the ransoms being paid and we Artie capitulated too much out what is there to gay the United States.

What are we. Why did we asked for five hour meeting with food but it's not clear what were looking for out of this. What are we looking to gain from Russia that we could not do on our own. At this point or communicate to the publicly you know I would take you because of that 1-800-684-3110 toll-free B with a severe challenges facing Americans or substantial time in our value freedom sword constitutional rights are under attack is more important than ever to stand with the American Center for Law and Justice for decades ACLJ has been on the frontlines protecting your freedoms defending your rights in court in Congress to get in the public arena and we have an exceptional track record of success. But here's the bottom line we could not do her work without your support, we remain committed to protecting your religious and constitutional freedoms and then remains our top priority, especially now during these challenging times.

The American Center for Law and Justice is on your side, you're already a member thinking you're not well this is the perfect time to stand with us.

ACLJ.org where you can learn more about her life changing become a member today ACLJ only one. A society can agree that the most vulnerable invoice is certainly contact. Is there any hope for that culture to survive. And that's exactly what you are saying when you stand with the American Center for Law and Justice, defendant the right to life, we've created a free and powerful publication offering a panoramic view of the ACLJ's battle for the unborn Gold edition like it will show you how you are personally support the publication includes a look at all major ACLJ cases were fighting for the rights of pro-life activist the ramifications of Roe V Wade, 40 years later Planned Parenthood's role in the what Obama care means to the pro-life discover the many ways your membership in the ACLJ is empowering the right to life question free copy of mission in life today online ACLJ/Cingular to your phone calls to 164 3110. Obviously so much focus on that subject tomorrow between Biden and Ed Putin let let me just say this by present by deserves all the scrutiny and and I think that all all because the weights handle this first trip, his vice President who he chose first trip was horrendous, disastrous complete failure embarrassing to United States of America which is not good for any of us and acted for the crisis at the border. So this second trip. I think Sec. Pompeo's right this first group of leaders he met with their just happy that our checkbook is back open this that America first abortionist America part of the group. You know what war the European group and then ended this idea again that we get back to over and over and over again, which is a less there is some big behind-the-scenes secret scheme there. Why ask Russia and make all these concessions to Russia like the pipeline. Why do that for five hour meeting. What are we looking for if you really believe there's bad as you say, what are you looking for in a verbal beating.

What can you not communicate through American strength through our military. Through our technology through our through the media that you need to sit down because remember, this is the country the Democrats blamed for every problem in the United States of America whether it was true that they made Russia out to be my case the former Soviet Union again and that kind of power that wielded wanted to because of this Will's code of Washington state online one will thankful God on the air. I complained about body, the other. I think you were the defense of the comparable adversary that correct another of the two men put the country first. Both of them just want to extend our own power, their position. I used to live in the former Soviet Union.

I know a little bit about what it's like it was better 20 years ago than it is under scrutiny, but as far as sending a movie adversary body is not learning is not strong enough to stand up to present you can walk all over him. Yes, their interest to, and whether they put Russia first and not that their mind putting the interest of rusted they think are key to their survival. It's always about their survival. First, I do.

I gripping this is again this is a tough guy know what it know it is is denied that any anti-know it says fiber puts a pushover he's been able to survive what was an extremely is will talk about turbulent post the fall of the Soviet Union, and yet is a KGB officer was addressed did it. He is working with the Stasi and eyes, but comes back into the Russia but rises through the ranks, not is it someone who came from a lot of wealth to someone who came from necessary a lot of Providence and is held on the powers had the laws changed in Russia for decades now. In the end that I get to get so I get the idea. He's tough and he's done a pushover, but I think he relishes being called a killer and he relishes being called a worthy adversary, all I think you're absolutely right Jordan. This is music that his ears someone like Google has come up as you said from the caveman from the Stasi through the ranks of the Soviet Union loves to hear language like that.

It's in his love, the most melodious sound that he can hear that the President of the United States says I am having a five hour meeting with a killer with a person into whose eyes I have looked and he has no soul. If I was Vladimir Putin.

I would be delighted to hear that because he knows that when you say that you mean it. I presume the President of the United States meant that when he said that I believe putting together. I believe he is soulless. If you're dealing with a soulless killer. How can you possibly hope to come on top in the negotiations. There is no white music and 60 W. with you we we heard this to from the US to bash us out of claim asserted by this is under the Obama ministration the former ambassador to Russia. Take a list.

Remember Vladimir Putin doesn't need to get anything out of this meeting you back when I worked in the State Department and the White House. We used to use the word deliverables for the summits. What are the deliverables the outcomes that will lead to tangible benefit for the American people that were putting does not have any deliverables other than just showing up. I remember he didn't request this meeting.

Present Biden did and then I think providing that the long list that you just outlined, and he's really good at that. Let's be clear. He knows that list well he knows how to respond. And if the outcome was no outcome no deliverables such as fine for Mr. Putin.

It was decided that if if if just comes out of this meeting with without any major pressure in this idea okay if you want to fight cybercrime but you don't is a cybercrime be directed by you and your former colleagues, and now the FSB in Russia that's a little bit different but but again we made the concessions we made the request we set this meeting up. And yet when I begin to see the two leaders together to questions.

I think Pres. Biden's reason for meeting with Vladimir Putin is exactly the same as vice President Harrises reason for not going to the border. It's about the importance of optics or the lack of optics, and so by both of them want to appear strong, Biden, Harris, when in fact neither one of them are prudent and shrewd. He is a killer and he's evil and to be naïve about our enemies and our adversaries is very, very dangerous, and you mentioned behind-the-scenes one of the things it that I'm concerned about behind-the-scenes is our own Missile Defense agency just recently requested $926 million for defensive missile system that will enlarge our ability to protect America. It was interesting that Pres. Biden who actually is cut much of the military immediately approved and then a letter comes out from former Obama officials asking Pres. Biden to use.

This missile defense system as a bargaining chip when he sits down with Vladimir Putin imitates Evan Jordan.

No country should put protecting its citizens as a bargaining chip on the table and so it'll be interesting to see if that comes up in all these nugget negotiations whether it comes out of that because Pres. Biden runs the risk and whatever they talk about a snatching defeat from the jaws of victory and of actually shooting himself in his own strategic foot. I hope that doesn't happen, but this trip it is disconcerting on so many levels, giving the idea get putting that on the table. Even that is Vladimir Putin's dream, if you walked into a meeting that he had asked for an area that is pipeline approved and now, for whatever reason that that with whatever concern we they have about Russia they be willing to give up a missile defense which is so important to keep the Russians a check as well. It keeps the Russians in check from aggression in Europe now. I did start it in Ukraine again. That is an issue as well by year. That should be at the top issue of discussion.

It certainly was what they tried to impeach the President of the United States. Pres. Trump was all Ukraine.

It was all Russian River that Ukraine they were time at that Ukrainian issue that was a transfer in Ukraine that occurred between April Putin government and anti-Putin government and then you saw the you know you'd Artie had the annexation of Crimea, but but but they had the idea you talk like this.

I think this is so important.

These these these autocrats like Putin, they they they don't see the idea they don't separate themselves from their country there with it as you said the chat Vladimir Putin believes he is Russia when he's at that meeting yet goes back to the point about deliverables and whether or not you know he's a worthy adversary you you have to understand the way that Vladimir Putin looks at this meeting is not in the interest of the Russian people we say he's putting the interest of his country.

First, he believes he is Russia Jordan. I mean, there's no distinction if he comes out of the meeting, looking stronger, looking like more of a leader look having it a more firm grasp on power than he thinks Russia has succeeded that Russia has risen because he believes he is Russia here here's my distinction with Pres. Biden Jordan. It's not that you know maybe he thinks he is the United States of America. He has to speak for the interest of America. We talked on yesterday's broadcast about this communiqué that came out of the G7 look the G7 can put out any document they want, and Pres. Biden can say okay, fine.

That's your opinion, but then Jordan he's gotta follow it up by saying, but this is what the United States thinks this is what the position of the United States is the Chinese government is committing genocide against the weaker people and oh by the way, we are to hold the Chinese government responsible for the origins of coded that's the distinction Jordan he's gotta speak for the United States, even if Vladimir Putin thinks that he is Russia and he's only Guinness because her for his own personal interest. There's gotta be a distinction between how the United States and Vladimir put in. Putin looks at these issues the same coming up will take your phone calls your comments get how do you believe that this meeting will go between the Biden and Putin 1-800-684-3110 if you want to share your comments or questions on the air with us the final segment, covered up, give us a call one 800 684 31 Tessa Carolyn Facebook. She wrote Biden is a globalist who use our taxpayer money given to the G7 dado food and then turned radically quote America is back all that he believes is that America is back to being the world's piggy bank is exactly goodbye point throughout this first trip reason why right sounds great to have Job idea. It said about Joe Biden.

It's about checkbook. It's about America saying you know what, even though China and India to her read this when it comes to climate really rejoin the Paris climate court bad for American companies, even though were doing great on those issues and were addressing them and hope without being part of this that the five court but hey, open up the checkbook United States and will offer you grading it only love you so much respect versus love only one.

ACLJ.org where you can learn more about her life changing become a member today ACL secular LOI this fight of saber to get so you know it we discussed is really essay to it. If you believe it's a discussions weather has been a power shift change their this again so he sent former prime minister that Yahoo he is still leading the opposition party. There is by one seat. That's how this parliamentary system works through their Knesset. It is real, so it is 6259.

This is a very fractured coalition government, which unseated prime minister that Yahoo led by someone who is actually maybe a paper even more conservative but his united with that the left Israel and the that the parties in Israel which the United Arab party.

It is your will to get is a good provider that those it is really centrist Jews who get voted. Israel and Ed choose a leader. Even though we call the Jewish state of Israel. The Arab population.

That is, there has the absolute right to vote. They never join to government before this time they have will see how long it lasts private former private so that Yahoo doesn't believe it will last long and had to admit we will see. But again, that's what's happier that that's happened it domestically in Israel, and it we get that further as we can to see how this coalition actually functions or if it functions. It all gets off the ground.

It got to this point, which a lot of people doubted it would so designate it has a get to this point actually governing your original face corroded to his retirement this meeting with to do what makes anyone think of this relationship with world leaders would be any difference in the policy failures were sitting at home that ties it's something written in the Wall Street Journal's that that was interesting to point out Bilbo Gertie wrote in the Wall Street Journal. Stop blaming Kemal Harris. It's not her fault. She has no good answers about the border its present bites and you II think that that that's important to make right now is much as it decreases the vice President Harris this is a failure of the administration is sitting her around, and it doesn't make sense now. It could be her team and if it is I might disagree with that statement. Sub that's pushing back to say die will go to border as well.

That would solve somebody those questions right there just say okay have seeded it with the problem is that when I dress it know it's good ask why to their why did you go but when I got to this bigger issue was around the group here. Russia as we we all know as those who represent present throughout. In the end, and added that the molar investigation which led to note that not fighting nothing between Russia and at the Trump campaign.

I then it was Ukraine but that was title out to Russia as well because of the rush involved in Ukraine and of course that impeachment failed miserably, is totally partisan at so I go start with Eddie who worked on that. The idea I get any. We've heard from the Democrats. It's all about Russia Russia out of the Chinese just a genocide there bad there that this problems there, but your rush is really the main pariah in the world and Ed and now there's a summit that we beg for now that that's somewhat of a irony is in the Jordan that the country that we believe are the Democrats believe is the pariah of the world interfered in our elections cyber attacks on our pipelines attacks on our economy and all this thing this is a country that the President of the United States is asking in the hand to have this person whom he called a soulless healer. Please meet with me in Geneva so I can talk to you knowing that the odds are against anything coming out of this as that. We just heard a deliverable. What does Pres. Biden expect Hooton to give him food and doesn't have to give them anything and is not going to give him anything because we go in with a globalist international cosmopolitan attitude espoused by the Democrats espoused by Pres. Biden and not the one the President from Gary which it was America first and American interests first. Where is that where do we hear that cry we don't hear that we hear all of the NATO leaders in the G7 are so happy that I'm going to meet with Hooton. I'm afraid nothing is going to come of this summit meeting of any value or of any worth except the Americans are going to be belittled once again and I take issue with work.

The set of the megabanks of the world were not Jordan. We are the suckers of the world, yet also it's is what the two would it would be that excess money to be throwing around. That's not true. The case coming of a pandemic and figure out how it had take care of things here at home, which is been so much it's it's almost got we got the shows, to focus you on what's happening abroad because domestic issues understandably dominate most of our lives.

Most of the day outside of her enough. Even if your job is maybe international, you're still dealing with at home try to get things back off the ground here there and that's happening, but we don't see as much focus that I what would I you top started to see the media turn.

I don't know how long it will last.

But the idea that under the Trump administration.

He basically had they might've been called names, there might've been a tough back and forth. They had unfettered access to Trump to his to his cabinet members to the White House press Corps. I believe it was the last press staff Ed to it to policy advisors unto the President to his attorneys, who were who were that that we go about it and get their traveling all around the world to get five questions asked five questions asking and I would argue that maybe not even any of them truly answer George the look I think the tide is probably starting to turn their outlook.

I also think we have to ask the question. Where does the buck stop. I mean the buck act absolutely has to stop with the present, the United States, he sets the policy on Iran.

He sets the policy on China. He sets the policy on Hamas. He sets the policy on Russia and Jordan yes it's true he sets the policy on the border as well. But here's merit, maybe where I would have a slight disagreement with the caller who called and I also think if the vice President is going to be given a duty by the President to solve the border crisis that she has a duty to come back and convince him of some very fundamental things like she's gonna come in the room, Jordan and say Mr. Pres., I know you set the policy on this, but we absolutely have to do summit.something to address the issue of child trafficking attached happening on our border.

Does the President set the policy on all of those issues. Absolutely Jordan, but she's got a duty if given this task to convince him to come around on this end and you quite frankly, I think the press has a duty here to if he's not answering the questions at these goggles they need to keep asking until he does look, I mean how many times Jordan did we see questions shouted after Pres. Trump for better or for worse. A lot of times he would turn around and ask them those questions have to be continued to be asked until he actually gives a meaningful answer.

Everyone sore the questions he got from CBS rotunda played right down exhibit admitted half leopard was they've heard a lot of world leaders concerned about this meeting so early in the presidency that you're like rewarding food advisor spotcheck was everybody at NATO told me they think me for meeting wit wit with food. Now I beat politically. Of those member states to date. I would include Germany as well. There there there. How are you happy with the US were processed like a rod there hoping this meeting opens up business opportunities.

That's how they sent economic opportunities to deal with Russia without the threat of US sections of our European allies do not have America's best interest in the front of their minds, nor should they, President of the United States should have our interest in the front of his mind and apparently perhaps he does not, I can't see how anything substituted come out of this meeting with Hooton. Unfortunately some things that would really hurt America may come out of it.

You know I was a young man when Jimmy Carter was President Joe Biden is looking more and more like which which means these babies. If you don't have the starvation can lead to America looking for week of the world states that we do right now were free to call on China Cove. It afraid to call it output visa killer will that he would ask where the adversary you will see how it goes live analysis for you tomorrow for decades now ACLJ is been on the frontlines protecting your freedom is defending your rights in court in Congress and in the public arena.
