| 0:09.8 | It's dangerous because it gets people killed. It leads people to believe foolish things. Out of idiotic hopes and fatuous dreams, |
| 0:16.5 | leaders tend to believe what they want to believe. That is precisely the opposite of their job, |
| 0:20.7 | particularly when it comes to national security. Foreign policy ought to be the preserve of |

| 1:16.8 | We can't do that. |
| 1:19.9 | So what precisely did Biden mean by this tweet? |
| 1:23.6 | Well, the White House came out today, and they said this was not a change in policy. |
