Iranian lawmaker issues OMINOUS warning to Trump

YOU, EVERYONE. GREAT TO BE BACK. HAVE A GOOD MONDAY. HERE IS HARRIS. >> Harris: THE 60 DAY. NEGOTIATION WINDOW WITH IRAN. EXPIRES TODAY AND WHAT WE'RE. WATCHING AT THIS HOUR, THE. RADICAL ISLAMIC REGIME CLAIMS IT. NOW HAS FULL CONTROL OVER THE. CRITICAL OIL SHIPPING WATERWAY. THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ. IN FACT, IRAN HELD NEGOTIATIONS. WITH ANOTHER COUNTRY, OMAN, ABOUT POSSIBLY IMPOSING FEES FOR. SHIPS TO TRAVEL THROUGH THE.

STRAIT. PRESIDENT TRUMP SAID THEY DO NOT. CONTROL THE STRAIT AND HE IS. WARNING OMAN TO NOT GET. INVOLVED. THERE WILL BE SERIOUS. CONSEQUENCES IF OMAN DOES. I'M HARRIS FAULKNER, YOU ARE IN. "THE FAULKNER FOCUS.". THERE ARE REPORTS OF MORE. THREATS FROM IRAN AGAINST. PRESIDENT TRUMP AND OUR AMERICAN. WARRIORS IN THE REGION. IRAN'S MILITARY REPORTEDLY. OFFERING A $30,000 BOUNTY FOR. ANY IRANIAN CITIZENS WHO. CAPTURES OR KILLS A U.S. SERVICE. MEMBER. A TOP IRANIAN LAWMAKER POSTED.

THIS. THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED. STATES INSTEAD OF HIS ENDLESS. BLUFFS REGARDING THE STRAIT OF. HORMUZ SHOULD BE THINKING ABOUT. SECURING HIS OWN SAFETY SO THAT. HE DOESN'T HAVE TO RESORT TO. FLEEING TO A FOOD TRUCK, A. REFERENCE TO A SECRET PLANE. SWITCH IN TURKEY UPON NEWS OF. POSSIBLE IRANIAN ASSASSINATION. PLOTS AGAINST THE PRESIDENT. AND THE PRESIDENT IS NOT BUDGING. ON THE TOP PRIORITY WITH ALL OF. THAT DISTRACTION THAT THEY ARE. TRYING TO SAY IN THAT POST. HERE IS WHAT HE POSTED.

THE NUMBER ONE GOAL IS AND. ALWAYS WILL BE THAT IRAN CANNOT. HAVE IN ANY SHAPE OR FORM, A. NUCLEAR WEAPON. HERE IS INDIANA SENATOR JIM. BANKS. >> FIRST AND FOREMOST PRESIDENT. TRUMP IS THE ONLY PRESIDENT IN. 47 YEARS WHO HAS HAD THE GUTS TO. TAKE ON THE REGIME IN IRAN AND. LET THEM KNOW THEY WON'T GET. AWAY WITH THIS. IRAN THEY CONTINUE TO ACT OUT. WE KNOW THAT. THESE ARE EVIL PEOPLE WHO AT THE. SAME TIME THAT PRESIDENT TRUMP. IS TRYING TO NEGOTIATE WITH THEM.

ARE CALLING FOR DEATH TO. PRESIDENT TRUMP OR CALLING FOR. BOUNTIES ON OUR OWN TROOPS AND. PRESIDENT TRUMP IS GOING TO HOLD. THEM ACCOUNTABLE FOR THAT. >> Harris: U.S. COMMANDER. ADMIRAL BRAD COOPER VISITED THE. U.S.S. ABRAHAM LINCOLN OVER THE. WEEKEND AMID QUESTIONS OF. CONDITIONS ON THE SHIP. COMMANDER COOPER PRAISED THE. CREW AND HEADED HOME FROM AN. EXTENDED STINT IN THE MIDDLE. EAST. FORMER DEPUTY NATIONAL SECURITY. ADVISOR VICTORIA COATES IS WITH.

ME IN "FOCUS.". I WANT TO GO TO LUCAS TOMLINSON. >> THE MEMORANDUM OF. UNDERSTANDING EXPIRES TODAY. LAST MONTH PRESIDENT TRUMP SAID. IT WAS ESSENTIALLY DEAD AFTER. IRAN ATTACKED THE SHIPS IN THE. STRAIT OF HORMUZ ENDING THE. CEASE-FIRE. >> IS THE MOU DEAD? >> President Trump: A VERY. INTERESTING QUESTION. TO ME I THINK IT IS OVER.

I DON'T WANT TO DEAL WITH THEM. ANYMORE. >> THE U.S.S. ABRAHAM LINCOLN. HAS BEEN THE CENTER OF THE. ATTENTION WHEN IT WAS FORCED TO. REMAIN AT SEA FOR OVER 250 DAYS. WITHOUT A PORT CALL BECAUSE OF. SUPPLY ISSUES AND YOU CAN'T PARK. A 100,000 AIRCRAFT CARRIER. WITHIN IRANIAN DRONES AND. MISSILES. ADMIRAL COOPER VISITED IT IN THE.

"WALL STREET JOURNAL" AND. ADDRESSED CONCERNS. U.S.S. ABRAHAM LINCOLN. PERFORMANCE FOR THE AGES. FOOD, HOT WATER, OTHER CONCERNS. HAPPENED MONTHS AGO AND. ADDRESSED BY LEADERSHIP AND. RESOLVED. ACTING NAVY SECRETARY POSTED. HERE IS THE TRUTH. 266 DAYS DEPLOYED, 200 DAYS IN A. COMBAT ZONE, 100,000 PLUS SORT. ACE. ORDNANCE DROPPED AND RETENTION. RATES AMONG THE HIGHEST OF ALL. CARRIERS. ADMIRAL COOPER HAS ORDERED THE.

LINCOLN HOME. TAKE A MONTH TO RETURN TO HER. HOME PORT IN SAN DIEGO. THE U.S.S. GEORGE WASHINGTON IS. MAKING HER WAY INTO THEATER AS. WE SPEAK. JUST FOR CONTEXT, HARRIS, RIGHT. NOW THE U.S. NAVY HAS 11. AIRCRAFT CARRIERS. AT THE HEIGHT OF THE REAGAN. BUILD-UP THE U.S. NAVY HAD 15. >> Harris: WE'RE FAST. APPROACHING IS YOUR POINT, CORRECT? >> JUST POINTING OUT U.S. NAVY. TODAY IS HALF THE SIZE IT WAS. DURING THE 1980s. 300 SHIPS NOW.

WE HAD 600 DURING THE 80s AND. GULF WAR. U.S. AIR FORCE ABOUT HALF THE. NUMBER OF FIGHTER JETS TODAY. THAN DURING THE GULF WAR. >> Harris: MAKING THE POINT OF. HOW MUCH OF THAT REDUCED NUMBER. WE HAVE DEPLOYED. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. VICTORIA COATES NOW FORMER. DEPUTY SECURITY ADVISOR TO. PRESIDENT TRUMP AND VICE. PRESIDENT OF THE NATIONAL. SECURITY AT HERITAGE FOUNDATION. GREAT TO SEE YOU TODAY. I WANT TO JUMP RIGHT IN ON WHERE. IRAN IS IN ALL OF THIS. THREATENING OUR PRESIDENT,

THREATENING OUR TROOPS. IRGC IS SAID TO HAVE BULKED UP. DETAILS ON THAT IN A MOMENT. WHERE DO YOU PUT THE ENEMY AT. THIS POINT? CAN WE STILL TALK TO THEM? >> GOOD MORNING, HARRIS. YES, WE COULD TALK TO THEM. I AGREE WITH PRESIDENT. NOT SURE HOW FAR IT WILL GET US. AND SOME OF HIS COMMENTS EARLIER. TODAY ABOUT HOW THEY NEED TO. WAVE THE RIGHT FLAG. IT WILL ECONOMIC NOW.

ECONOMIC BOLSTERED BY THE FACT. THE ONLY PRESIDENT WILLING TO. TAKE THIS KIND OF DRAMATIC. KINETIC ACTION AGAINST IRAN. IN OPERATION EPIC FURY THAT. WEAKENED THEM. THEY CAN'T RECOVER FROM WHAT HAS. ALREADY HAPPENED TO THEM. ECONOMICALLY AND WHAT SECRETARY. BESSENT HAS SAID IS GOING TO. HAPPEN THIS WEEK. WE'LL PUSH THEM CLOSER AND. CLOSER TO COLLAPSE. WHAT'S LEFT OF THEIR LEADERSHIP. WILL HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION. DO THEY WANT TO AS THE FORMER.

SUPREME LEADER SAID DRAIN THE. POISON CHALICE FOR COME TO A. REASONABLE DEAL AND SURVIVE WITH. SOMETHING. >> Harris: WE KNOW TECHNOLOGY. CAN REST WITH CHINA OR RUSSIA. RUSSIA MAY NOT HAVE A LOT MORE. MONEY FOR WAR, THEY WOULULD. CERTAINLY NOT, YOU KNOW, BACK. AWAY FROM BEING INVOLVED WITH. IRAN. THEY SEEM TO BE FRIENDS. >> WELL, FRIENDS IS AN. INTERESTING TERM. THEY ARE PARTNERS OF CONVENIENCE. AND CHINA IS SHOWING VERY LITTLE.

WILLINGNESS TO ACTUALLY DO. ANYTHING MATERIAL. THEY ARE GIVING THEM. INTELLIGENCE. THEY MAY BE SOME EXTREMELY. LIMITED WEAPONS SALES. CHINA HAS BEEN CAUTIOUS. I WOULD WATCH CHINA THIS WEEK. WHEN THESE ADDITIONAL SANCTIONS. ARE INTRODUCED. WHAT IS RUMORED IN TERMS OF. SECRETARY SANCTIONS ON THE. CHINESE NETWORK. CHINA WILL HAVE AN EASY CHOICE. BETWEEN DO THEY WANT TO CONTINUE. TO DO BUSINESS WITH IRAN, WHICH. IS A LOSING BET, OR DO THEY WANT.

TO CONTINUE TO DO BUSINESS WITH. THE WORLD'S LARGEST ECONOMY AND. THE KEEPER OF THE FEDERAL. RESERVE? CHINA IS GOING TO ACT. PRACTICACALLY. THEY WON'T BE EMOTIONAL ABOUT. THIS. >> Harris: THIS FROM THE "WALL. STREET JOURNAL." INTERCEPTED. COMMUNICATION SUGGESTS IRAN USED. THE 60 DAYS NOT TO SERIOUSLY. NEGOTIATE, BUT TO BUY TIME FOR A. LARGER ATTACK DOWN THE ROAD. TO THAT END THE REGIME HAS GIVEN. THE ISLAMIC REVOLUTIONARY GUARD. MORE CONTROL, APPOINTED HARDENED.

WAR VETERANS TO TAKE SOME KEY. POSTS, EXPANDED DOMESTIC COUNTER. INTELLIGENCE OPERATIONS AND. RAMPED UP MISSILE AND DRONE. PRODUCTION. DEFENSE ANALYST CLOSE TO THE. IRANIAN GOVERNMENT TOLD THE. JOURNAL, QUOTE, THERE IS A. WIDESPREAD VIEW IN IRAN THAT THE. MAIN WAR HAS NOT YET BEGUN. VICTORIA, YOUR REACTION. >> WELL, HARRIS, WHAT I SEE. THERE IS INTERCEPTED. COMMUNICATIONS WHICH MAKES ME. HAPPY. I'M GLAD TO KNOW WE'RE LISTENING. AND WATCHING IT. WE POSSIBLY HAVE A LOT MORE.

DETAIL ON WHATEVER PLOT THEY ARE. WATCHING. THEY CAN'T COMMUNICATE SECURELY. THAT TELLS THEM THAT FOR. STARTERS. SECOND, THE IRANIAN MILITARY IS. IN NO POSITION TO DO MUCH. AGAINST THE KIND OF AMERICAN. FORCES THAT ARE IN THE REGION. AS LONG AS WE'RE AWARE OF WHAT. THEY'RE DOING AND TAKING AWARE. THEIR ELEMENT OF SURPRISE. ANOTHER CATASTROPHIC MISTAKE ON. THE PART OF THE ISLAMIC REPUBLIC. WHO HAS ALREADY MADE TERRIBLE. ERRORS IN TERMS OF SHELLING. THEIR NEIGHBORS INDISCRIMINATELY.

AND EVEN JORDAN AND EGYPT. SAUDI ARABIA, KUWAIT, QATAR. ALL OF THEIR FORMER NEIGHBORS, STILL THEIR NEIGHBORS BUT WERE. WILLING TO HAVE A PARTNERSHIP. WITH THEM ARE UNITED AGAINST. THEM. IF THEY MAKE THE MISTAKE OF. GOING AFTER A COUNTRY LIKE. KUWAIT THEY WILL HAVE A REALLY. BAD REGIONAL RESPONSE AWAITING. THEM. >> Harris: WHAT EVERYBODY KNOWS. TODAY AND WHAT WE'RE LEARNING. EXCEPT FOR OMAN AND THE STRAIT.

OF HORMUZ, IF THEY CAN TRY TO. GET SOMETHING GOING WITH THEM. AND THE PRESIDENT SAYS DON'T.
