| 0:00.0 | I just wonder if the vice president who was against this, by all reports, was against the conflict to begin with, maybe he wasn't the right person to bring this conflict to an end. We'll find out. |
| 0:18.8 | In my opinion, the vice president of the United States, |
| 0:24.6 | the chief negotiator on this particular project has not well served the president. |
| 0:33.0 | Wow, they found their fall guy. Hi again, everybody. It's now 5 o'clock in the east. So begins the blame game. J.D. Vance was made the face of the U.S. Iran deal. And now that we essentially know |
