00:00Second, was there any reaction from the President
00:03to O.J. Simpson's death?
00:05Do you know if they ever crossed paths?
00:07If so, how, when?
00:09So, I'll say this, our thoughts are with his families
00:12during this difficult time,
00:14obviously with his family and loved ones.
00:16And I'll say this, I know that they have asked for some privacy,
00:20and so we're going to respect that.
00:22I'll just leave it there.
00:25Iran is threatening a significant attack
00:27against Israel.
00:28With all of the U.S. assets in the region,
00:31will the U.S. provide assistance in thwarting this attack?
00:33How is the U.S. preparing to respond?
00:35So, look, you heard from the President directly yesterday.
00:38He mentioned this at the top of his press conference
00:41and laid out our concerns,
00:42certainly, about these threats that are being made.
00:45And he made very clear as well
00:47that America's support for Israel's security
00:50is ironclad, especially against these threats
00:52that's coming from Iran and their proxies.
00:55And so, the President made that clear as well
00:57when he spoke to President Netanyahu
00:59just last week, as I mentioned moments ago.
01:01I want to be really careful.
01:02I'm not going to get into operational procedures
01:04from here. Beyond that,
01:06we've made ourselves very, very clear.
01:07The President made himself very clear.
