| 0:00.0 | Hey, welcome to the Glendek program. It is the podcast today. We got a lot. We have very controversial Mike Lee on. |
| 0:07.0 | He's gone really not controversial, but he is today. He was very upset about the briefing that he got in Congress. |
| 0:15.0 | We talked to him about that. And also, where does he stand on President Trump? |
| 0:21.0 | It's not what you're going to hear from the rest of the media. There's... |
| 0:26.0 | This is an interview worth listening to all the way through. Also Ian Bremmer is with us the risks of 2020. |
| 0:34.0 | What are the things that he sees over the horizon this year? And was America a Christian founding? |
| 0:44.0 | Are we a Christian-based country? A professor from Oregon actually chimes in. Don't miss it. |
| 0:56.0 | You're listening to the best of the Glendek program. |
| 1:10.0 | We have Senator Mike Lee on the phone with us now who is either loved or hated by so many. And I think misunderstood in this particular case of Senator. Welcome to the program. |
| 1:25.0 | Thanks so much, Glenn. Good to see you with you as always. |
| 1:28.0 | So Mike, you are not saying that the president shouldn't have gotten Soleimani or that he hasn't handled this right. |
| 1:38.0 | That's correct. Right? You're for that. |
| 1:41.0 | I have not spoken out against the attack on Soleimani. What I am concerned about is where we go from here. |
| 1:49.0 | I want to make sure that any subsequent military action against Iran is carried out only through the Constitutional formula, which is through a declaration of war or an authorization for the use of military force. |
| 2:02.0 | And this is something that the president wants the same. I think the president wants the fall of the Constitution. I commend the president. I support the president. |
| 2:08.0 | This president has been actually the most respectful and the most restrained in his use of military powers and chief more so than any other president in my lifetime. |
| 2:20.0 | I agree with that. And I respect him for that. Unfortunately, some of those around him seem to be coming from a slightly different place. And that worries me. |
| 2:29.0 | I was shocked because I felt exactly the same way about President Trump. I was really proud of the way he has restrained himself. |
| 2:38.0 | He didn't go in and lob missiles after they took down our drone. You know, they've captured our sailors, et cetera, et cetera. |
| 2:47.0 | And he really didn't do any of the things that I think other presidents would have done. And yet he didn't look weak. |
| 2:56.0 | And he just drew the line of you kill our people. And that's a different story. He drops the bomb. This all goes fairly well as of today goes fairly well. |
| 3:10.0 | And I talked to Mike to hear on television all of the people from the right that we're saying we got a bomb there. Oil fields. We've got to go after them. No, no, no. No. We don't want that. |
