5:05 pm
tomorrow is the 75th anniversary of pearl harbor. it's a milestone that marks the ultimate sacrifice of those who wear the great uniform. it's a reminder, too, of the valiant efforts of america's fighting men and women who have liberated millions from tyranny and oppression. now today our brave men and women are the first in line defense. defense. against radical islamic terrorism, words that some people don't like to say. an ideology of death stha is that that slaughters innocent men, women, and children. we are going to protect our people. we're going to protect our country. believe me. [cheers and applause] in every generation, a new athletic to freedom arises. and just as we defeated these threats we faced
5:06 pm
generations in the past and you understand that so too will we defeat the forces of terrorism. it's unseen in many cases, but we're going to defeat that force and we're going to defeat it strongly and quickly. believe me. we will prevail. we stand here today just miles from fort bragg, the home of heroes. it's a home of heroes. [cheers and applause] our special forces at fort bragg have been the tip of the spear in fighting terrorism. the motto of our army special forces is to free the oppressed, and that is exactly what they have been doing and will continue to do. at this very moment soldiers from fort bragg areç deployed in 90 countries around the
5:07 pm
world. can you believe that? 90 countries. base in fort bragg is the 82nd airborne division. [cheers] >> also known as the all-american division. we stand in awe of their achievements. we really do. not far from here sits 45% of the entire united states marine corps at camp lejeune. i have been to camp lejeune. we love camp lejeune. 12,000 citizen soldiers fill the ranks of the north carolina army and air national guard. the national guard rushed to the scene to help the victims of hurricane matthew and so many other catastrophes. and we continue to send our thoughts and prayers to those recovering in its wake. the military families in north carolina are a
5:08 pm
national treasure and it will be the duty of my administration to ensure that we protect those who protect us. [cheers and applause] and i just want to tell you that we are going to be taking care of our veterans. and i'm right now.

5:09 pm
that brings me to the second reason why i'm here to discuss our action plan to make america great again beginning with the rebuilding of our military. and we will, we will. you are going to see it i'm so looking forward, probably next week, you're going to see what we're going to do to take care of our vets. it's going to be announced. a lot of things are going to be announced. stay tuned, folks. here are the priorities that will guide our military and veterans policy. all men and women in uniform will have the supplies, support, equipment, training, services, medical care and resources they need to get the job done incredibly well and perfectly. you watch. [cheers and applause] the best care in the world for our veterans both at public and v.a. facilities as well as the right to see a private doctor when the
5:10 pm
lines are long. [cheers and applause] i have been saying this for the last year and a half. you know, people are waiting in line for seven dz, 8 days, nine days. longer. he just said longer. longer than that. and when that happens. you going out to see a private doctor, a private hospital, a public hospital, somebody that can take care of you, and we're going to pick up the bill, and it's going to be not only is it going to be great for you and life saving in many cases, it's going to be less expensive. and i'm saying why didn't they do this in the past? why didn't somebody do this? there is not going to be any more waiting for our great people in line for weeks to see a doctor. and finally, a commitment to only engage the use of military forces when it's in the vital national security interest of the united states. we don't want to have a depleted military because we're all over the place
5:11 pm
fighting in areas that just -- we shouldn't be fighting in. we're going to have such a strong powerful military. it's not going it be depleted any longer. i mentioned equipment previously. i said equipment. we're going to have the finest equipment in the world. it's going to be new. it's going to be modern. it's going to be clean. it's going to be the best. that's what we're going to have. we're not going to be a depleted military anymore. [cheers and applause] from now on, it's going to be america first. america first. [cheers and applause] we will stop racing to topple foreign -- you understand this. foreign regimes that we know nothing about, that we shouldn't be involved with. instead our focus must be on defeating terrorism and
5:12 pm
destroying isis. [cheers and applause] and we will. any nation that shares these goals will be our partner in this mission. we won't forget it. we want to strengthen all friendships and seek out new friendships. rather than a rigid dogma, we're guided by the lessons of history and a desire to promote stability, stability all over and strength in our land. this destructive cycle of intervention and chaos must finally, folks, come to an end. come to an end. [cheers and applause] we've spent at last count $6 trillion in the middle east. and our roads have potholes all over. our highways are falling apart.
5:13 pm
our bridges are falling. our tunnels are no good. our airports are horrible like third world countries. we have got to start spending on ourselves. but we have got to be so strong militarily, like we have never ever been before. remember. that is like we've never been before. [cheers and applause] we seek harmony and goodwill among theç nations of the world. and we believe that respect for mutual sovereignty helps form the basis of trust and understanding. but we don't want people taking advantage of us anymore. we don't want countries taking advantage of us anymore. we don't want that. we don't want that. we want to be the smart people. we don't want to be what we have been over the last long period of time. we built up our military not as an act of aggression, but as an act of prevention.
5:14 pm
we pursue and build up arms not in order to seek conflict, but in order to avoid conflict. we want to be strong. in short, we seek peace through strength. [cheers and applause] that is why in my first budget report to congress i am going to ask for the elimination of the defense sequester. that's enough. [cheers and applause] depletion. i call it depletion. it gets worse and worse every year. not for our military. we will show the world that america is going to be strong again. stronger than ever before. we're going to be stronger militarily than ever before. hopefully we don't have to use our military. but we're going to be stronger than ever before. and there has rarely been a time when we have needed this strength more than we have right now. [cheers and applause]
5:15 pm
but in order to succeed with our defense policy, we must find the right person to lead our defense department. is that right? [cheers and applause] this is why i'm proud to formally announce today my intention to nominate general james mad dog matti mattis. [cheers and applause] as the next secretary of defense for the united states of america. jim is a marine corps four star general, the former commander of u.s. central commands and allied supreme commander for transformation this is going to be so great for us.

5:27 pm
jobs. we're going to defend american jobs. and we have to look at it almost as a war because that's what's happened to us. that's what's happened to our workers. these are great people. boy did they come out to vote? remember they said they don't exist? they existed. they existed. believe me, in millions and millions of people poured out to the voting booths and they voted big league. that's why we had these kind of victories. we had states where we would win by 30 points, 35 points, 40 points, amazing. and if a company wants to fire their workers, leave our country and then ship their products back into our country, there will be consequences, i'm sorry. there will be consequences. big consequences.

5:30 pm
american workers. and we will be appointing very shortly somebody to head up our program and i will tell you, like general mattis, who will do a phenomenal job because we're going to stop people from coming into our country illegally, but we're going to have people come in to our country and they are going to come in by the thousands and hundreds of thousands but they're going to come in, they're going to come in legally. right? but by the hundreds of thousands. we want people to come in. but they have to come in legally.

[cheers and applause] ♪ >> all right. donald trump in north carolina. he spoke for a little more than a half an hour and general mattis spoke for about 32 seconds. where was the general? he was there and then he was gone. a man of few words at least in fayetteville this evening. the only thing that was really new was his japanese investor which is a very interesting story. so i want to bring in ed henry in washington who knows all about this.
5:37 pm
at least i hope henry does. because i don't know that much about it. but apparently this guy, as trump said, one of the richest guys in the world, lives in japan. he is going to pump 50 million in an initial investment. >> 50 billion with a b. that's why it's a bigger deal. he runs soft bank. and donald trump is saying as president-elect this will create 50,000 jobs in the united states. here's why that's a big deal. the dow has just closed at a record high for the 11th time since donald trump was elected president. that happened this afternoon. and so what you're seeing is someone who is about to take office with some momentum, with some wind at his back, if you will. and if he can continue to get international business folks to step up and say, look, i'm going to invest in america that is going to be a big deal number one, number two, here is what the mainstream america is going to talk about this speech tonight and what they are
5:38 pm
not going to talk about. they are going to talk about in the days and hours ahead how this is all back to the campaign and donald trump needs the crowds and rallies and he feeds off that yes, true. but what they're not going to mention is that his rhetoric is also changing, bill. you heard there a very hopeful, optimistic, uplifting message, contrast that to the campaign rallies where it was darker. s it with a america is falling apart. now he is talking about the shift to governing, and that's very important. >> the soft bank deal, i want to get back to this for a moment. so he takes $50 billion, this japanese investor. we don't know where that's going yet. okay? >> no. >> so it's basically a pr thing at this point. there is no time line on it, when the money is going to come. but it's a psychological okay. the carrier thing worked out for trump. now he has attracted investment. you would assume very other wealthy banks abroad, particularly with the cut of the business tax in america,
5:39 pm
you know, businesses can expand. they are going to need money to do the r and d to build the new plants, to build whatever they need. so all of this psychologicallyç helps trump about a month and a half before he even takes office. >> yeah, because it's two things. it's cutting the corporate tax rate as you said, which is something donald trump spelled out a little bit more at this rally about how important that is to him in the first 100 days to get some momentum on that in terms of working with congress. it's also the banks are talking about getting a lot of momentum there is a story in the "wall street journal" tonight about how they think banks will all of a sudden become a profit center again because of regulations. >> yeah. and so that sounds like pinheaded stuff. but regulation basically. >> it has a real impact. >> what happened was the obama administration basically told the banks what they could invest in and what they could not invest in. so the banks, basically, were left with, okay. anything i do, i have to
5:40 pm
okay with washington. you assume trump will take that off. >> i will give you a real quick example. i was talking to the head of the community bankers in america who told me that when barack obama took offers there were roughly 8,000 community banks in america, now there are about 6,000. why did that happen? regulations on their back. >> invest and make money in their own community. why are they going to open up? trump has got some momentum and no doubt about it in the business world. we appreciate you staying up late for us. thank you. when we come back, we're going to talk about bowe bergdahl. this is a fascinating story because it centers around the government, a judge, allowing testimony of people, soldiers who served with bergdahl in afghanistan, whether they were hurt after he deserted. is it legal is on that case. we'll have that for you as the factor continues ♪ ♪

people say,

let's just get a sandwich or something. "or something"? you don't just graduate from medical school, "or something." and we don't just pull smoked chicken, bake fresh foccacia and hand-slice avocado. there's nothing "or something" about it. . . i have asthma...
5:43 pm
...one of many pieces in my life. so when my asthma symptoms kept coming back on my long-term control medicine. i talked to my doctor and found a missing piece in my asthma treatment with breo. once-daily breo prevents asthma symptoms. breo is for adults with asthma not well controlled on a long-term asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. breo won't replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. breo opens up airways to help improve breathing for a full 24 hours.
5:44 pm
