"Some reports that you were looking for the truth in vain from military leaders in the Middle East, calling them directly to ask their opinion on what is happening on the ground. Do you trust what you get from the Pentagon?"

Vance:

“Oh, I—I mean, I trust Pete, and I trust Dan Kane, but I found this story very strange. It's like, the vice president is calling admirals and generals to try to understand America's foreign policy? Of course it is. We will talk more. See you later."
