Host Margaret Brennan, who as our Mike Miller reported was thoroughly humiliated last Sunday by Secretary of State Marco Rubio for her uneducated questions, was once again behind the table. She tries to hide her sneer when talking to Republicans but isn’t always effective at it:

MARGARET BRENNAN: So the president said he’s going to hold Iran responsible as well. Envoy Steve Witkoff said in an interview that Iran had responded to this U.S. outreach via multiple channels. In regard to a letter sent by the president, Witkoff described it as an offer to Iran to “create a verification program so [that] nobody worries about weaponization of [your] nuclear material.” Can you clarify? Is the U.S. seeking the dismantlement of Iran’s nuclear program, or verification, like what President Obama put in place back in 2015 and President Trump pulled out of? [You mean, the disastrous deal that gave billions to the regime and did little to stop their nuclear program? That one, Margaret?]

MIKE WALTZ: Full dismantlement. Iran has to give up its program in a way that the entire world can see. And this is- look–

MARGARET BRENNAN: Have they said they’re interested?

MIKE WALTZ: –as President- as President Trump has said, this is coming to a head. All options are on the table, and it is time for Iran to walk away completely from its desire to have a nuclear- nuclear weapon. That- and they will not, and cannot be allowed to have a nuclear weapons program.

Watch (the Iran segment starts at about the 1:46 mark):

“Iran has to give up its program in a way that the entire world can see,” Waltz says.
