0:00.0 | President Trump has just announced a full ceasefire not only between the United States and Iran, |
0:05.9 | but between Israel and Iran, which is the real heart of that war. It's over. The Panicans are |
0:12.8 | totally defeated. Some of us, I'm not going to say who, some of us are totally vindicated here. |
