Summary

At 2:30amET, President Trump announced that the United States, in partnership with Israel, launched a "major combat operation" against Iran.  The objective goes beyond preventing Iran from having a nuclear weapon, according to the president.  Trump says he wants regime change and is putting the onus on the Iranian people to "take over their government," and he cautioned U.S. citizens to be prepared for American casualties.

Guaranteed human.

0:14.3

Hey, this, folks.

0:15.2

It is Saturday, February 28th, and while you were sleeping, your country went to war with that welcome to this Saturday,

0:25.1

February 28th, Amy and T.J. And Robs, this is a morning now. We are waking up. A lot of people

0:32.8

are just finding this out, including members of Congress, that Operation Epic Fury is underway. The U.S.

0:40.2

has attacked Iran and Robs. This is different from last time. Yes. And we had been hearing about

0:45.9

the threats of this. I don't know that any of us were anticipating waking up this morning to that

0:50.8

news. Certainly, I can speak for myself saying I wasn't. Had I even popped up and you said, babe, we're at war. That's a fairly ominous thing to hear on a Saturday morning after just the last couple of months. It's exhausting. And yet, according to President Trump, necessary. It's necessary is what he says. But this is a much different justification than we've heard in the past. Now, folks, we are hopping on here. Yes, on a Saturday morning because I just wanted to give you a quick update. There's going to be news coverage. You're going to see all day long, but we just want to get you caught up on what happened overnight. And as we're recording this road, this has only been going on for the past five or six hours that, in fact, the U.S. began a major military operation against Iran overnight in

1:33.6

coordination with Israel. And while as we are recording robes, and the president used the word, war,

1:40.1

we're at war. And right now, missiles are flying all over the Middle East.

1:46.0

Missals are flying into and out of Iran.

1:49.7

We are getting reports early of some of the first reports of deaths associated, and the president is also warning us robes that there could be American deaths and casualties as a part of this. This sounds like

2:02.5

not just a quick one-and-done hit type of thing. It sounds like he's preparing us for a more

2:07.9

protracted and a wider-ranging, if you will, conflict in that 12-day war we had last summer.

2:15.7

Wow. Stomach was in knots just hearing you describe all of that. And

2:19.2

the president has been warning people in Iran that bombs will be dropping everywhere and that when

2:25.0

the dust settles, he said Iranians should then overtake their government. Now, as you might

2:30.9

imagine, you just pointed out, Iran is retaliating, launching missiles at Israel,

2:35.8

where air raid sirens have been going off. Look, I can't imagine what the Israelis have been

2:41.5

through just over the past several years and now to be at war with Iran and having incoming

2:46.4

missiles from that part of the world.
