Hey there, folks.

It is Wednesday, March 4th, and we can do this all day long.

So says Secretary of Defense, Secretary of War, Pete Hexif.

With that, welcome to this episode of Amy and T.J. Rose, people kind of chuckled and giggled

and said, that's ridiculous. Change it to Secretary of War. Well, I guess it's apt right now.

And it's a pretty tough talk from the secretary who was just a short

time ago given another update on the war with Iran. That's right. Among the many headlines

that he created, he had a lot of one-liners in describing the United States' strength and the

Iranians' weaknesses, but one of them that stood out to me was they are toast and they know it

in the whole umbrella of we can do this all day. Yes, he made a lot of analogies, but he said,

in under a week, we have complete and total control, or we will soon have complete and total control

over Iranian skies. And he talked about

destroying the Navy, destroying the military. This was a lot of bravado. A lot of bravado, a lot of bluster.

And you remember when George W. Bush got so much hell right when he said, bring it on. You remember

that? You remember, bring it on. You remember that?

Yes.

And mission complete.

I remember those two things. You know, but the one that the mission accomplished, they know that was a mistake with the big banner that early on.

But he got hell for saying, bring it on, essentially challenging a fight from Al Qaeda, I think it was at the time. But it was not received well because you're like, come on, let's fight. But there are American lives at risk. Don't, you're not a badass. You shouldn't talk like that. There are lives at risk. We don't want to go to war. Hex-eth has taken that language and run with it, and it's almost expected roles.

But a lot of this was a bunch of tough talk we'll get into.
