donald trump's secretary of state, mike pompeo, is worried. he means back to the eight failed years of president obama's foreign policy — whether that was the ridiculous iran nuclear deal, or the paris climate accords, or the complete appeasement of the chinese communist party, those — those aren't places that we want to go back to. they're places that the american people demanded that president trump and our administration take us away from. and i hope that when president biden talks about going back, that's not what he's thinking about. former polish foreign minister radoslaw sikorski is familiar with biden�*s team from his time in office. he is pleased by what he sees. well, yes, it is back, because america was beginning like a — i don't want to overstate it, but instead of the world's policeman, which is to say, a force for law and order, it was behaving under trump as the world's opportunist, and now america is back as the leader of the free world, and that's a good thing. tense music. and where exactly should america be exercising that l

there are a lot of intraparty rivals pompeo was going to have.e's clearly somebody whose resume from a presidential campaign perspective was greatly enhanced by the trump administration. he has now served as secretary of state, director of the cia. going into the administration he was a congressman. this is a better position from which to run for president, you are going to see a lot of republican on republican violence, at least rhetorically speaking, because everybody's going to try to position themselves as the ideal successor to president trump. while we wait to see if donald trump wants to run again himself. host: who do you think did their first iowa visit letter? guest: -- visit better? guest: rick scott has a more difficult job in the sense that i think he is going to largely be judged by how he does running the campaign arm for the senate republicans. so, republicans are not very far off from having a majority in the senate, and it is not necessarily the greatest next year. how republicans do, i think that is going to have a much bigger

administration, biden's own secretary of state tony blinken agreed during the nomination in mike pompeo there is again -- genocide going on as we speak. there is on-going forced sterilization of women. there is on-going rape. there is on-going torture and on-going slave labor. what i think the biden administration was starting to hint at was a diplomat boycott so they can't go over to the olympics. they will still on in terms of sponsor numbers, nbc, nike and major league baseball. major league baseball just expanded and telling us how much they care about social justice. they expanded their deals in china. on the back of real slavery going on in china. how can we reward them after all they did with covid and with this? flying the american flag there and legislate everyone make millions and giving them the global platform to white wash their atrocities. they try to replace the american dream with the china dream. >> last time we looked the other way was with russia. and as soon as the winter games were over they invaded another country. steve, china is getting bolder every day. they war

and i am certain that secretary pompeo put these conditions in. and nobody is certified they have been met. so that's the whole point here. yeah, i'm confident that the low risk strategy was to have a residual counterterrorism force until the peace deal actually became a deal and was being implemented and was working. and but i'm sure the military will do whatever they're told by president biden. he has the authority as commander in chief to do this. i don't question that. he has an obligation under our law to inform congress of the risk and to make certifications. we have the right to ask that of any administration, i was going to ask it of the trump administration. i want you to know this is an unforced error from my point of view. this was not the preferred route. this was not the preferred route for president trump. and we're when president trump said a hard dateline of may 1st, it wasn't -- >> do you think another 9/11-like incident is more likely as a result of this? >> that's what they say. the afghan study group. i talked to commanders in
