RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
WALTZ: "I find President Obama somewhat lecturing President-Elect Trump on Russia to be height of irony. We’ve seen under Obama’s term Russia invade and take over Crimea, take over parts of Ukraine, reassert itself into the Middle East in a way we haven’t seen in 30 to 40 years. Barrel bombing civilians and just a few months ago, Obama proposed to Putin a deal in which American military officers and Russian military officers would share our most sensitive intelligence to target some of these groups. It was a deal that the Pentagon vehemently opposed. I certainly have some concern about the Russians and think we should approach it with very kind of cautious eye, I find it coming from President Obama to be somewhat ridiculous."
