00:00I know I haven't I've been trying to get a get the bill put together be a good question
00:12ask him a bottom line just what Sarah Blumenthal said not only are they in a defense agreement
00:19with North Korea they may be providing nuclear expertise to North Korea to increase their
00:25nuclear arsenal.
00:28Now if that doesn't get you to being a state sponsor of terrorism what would increasing
00:33the nuclear capability of somebody already on the state sponsor of terrorism list should
00:40just be an automatic inclusion of the country in question so as to unanimous consent I'd
00:47like the committee to have a first shot at this but to me this is one of the most important
00:51decisions our generation of politicians will make because if we made Russia state sponsor
00:58terrorism it would change the momentum in Ukraine overnight it would be a morale boost
01:04to the Ukrainians it would make it hard for anybody to do business with Russia and it
01:09would further isolate this regime my hope is the Russian people one day will be free
01:14of Putin and his cronies they're suffering as much as anyone.
01:18You haven't asked me but I haven't been in touch with former President Trump either.
