1 00:00:24,679 --> 00:00:28,239 Speaker 1: And here we go. Hi, how are you welcome to 2 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:32,560 the Big Podcasts. Today's Monday. Today's the twenty ninth day 3 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:36,159 of September, year of Our Lord, twenty twenty five. My 4 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:40,399 name is Tom Sullivan. And as we get this week underway, 5 00:00:41,079 --> 00:00:44,600 we are well. Tomorrow is the end of the federal 6 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,880 fiscal year. So they'll shut down tomorrow night if they 7 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:51,399 don't come to some agreement. They're both blaming each other. 8 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 2: Of course. 9 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,399 Speaker 1: John Thune and Mike Johnson went over to the White 10 00:00:56,439 --> 00:01:00,240 House met with the President today, so did Chuck Schumer 11 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,879 and Haakim Jeffries. And what the Democrats are asking for 12 00:01:05,079 --> 00:01:10,239 is millions upon millions of dollars more spending to make 13 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:15,799 to help out with the premiums on Obamacare, because it's 14 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:17,959 too expensive for a lot of people that are low 15 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,159 income people, and so they want more money for those folks. 16 00:01:21,799 --> 00:01:24,599 And the Republican said, look at we got a lot 17 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,680 to hash out. Why don't we just sign this kick 18 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,079 the can down the road until a few weeks into 19 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,280 October and then we keep the government open and then 20 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:37,319 we'll keep negotiating behind the scenes. And the republic the 21 00:01:37,359 --> 00:01:39,560 Democrats to say, no, we want more money for the 22 00:01:39,879 --> 00:01:48,079 healthcare premiums. So we'll see who blinks. But yeah, that's 23 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:54,120 tomorrow night. I I don't know if it affects other 24 00:01:54,159 --> 00:01:57,000 than if you're a government worker. But there's other people 25 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:02,799 involved as well. We've got the big violence over the weekend. 26 00:02:03,959 --> 00:02:08,599 We got the Michigan church. Crazy guy drove through the 27 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:13,280 front doors of the church and in his pickup truck 28 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,000 blasted through the doors and then got out and started 29 00:02:17,039 --> 00:02:20,479 shooting people in the church. And he had some sort 30 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,560 of they talked about IED's and Molotov cocktails. He had 31 00:02:25,479 --> 00:02:29,000 some accelerants with him. The church burned to the ground, 32 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:34,080 and today they came out and said, we'll play some 33 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:41,080 of it for you. Four dead, eight wounded. Place was firebombed. 34 00:02:41,719 --> 00:02:43,759 They finally did come out today and say they did 35 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:49,520 account for everybody. So the guy who is the man 36 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,840 who was killed, he had got into a shootout with 37 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:58,879 the police on that forty year old guy. He had 38 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,280 big flags and the band back of his pickup truck 39 00:03:01,719 --> 00:03:04,919 as he drove through. I got to run down more 40 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:10,240 about this. This guy from CBS today said, pictures emerging 41 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,759 of the man who police say attacked the Church of 42 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,199 Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Michigan during services 43 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:21,360 on Sunday. Named Thomas Jacob Sandford, forty years old, Iraq 44 00:03:21,439 --> 00:03:26,840 war veteran deployed once to a rock for several months 45 00:03:27,479 --> 00:03:30,039 during two thousand and seven two thousand and eight. I 46 00:03:30,039 --> 00:03:32,360 don't know what the several months was all about. Usually 47 00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:37,000 they went for longer than that. In any case, the 48 00:03:37,039 --> 00:03:40,560 guy there's a guy there who's running for local city council, 49 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,719 told CBS News that he met mister Sandford at his 50 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:47,879 home last week while campaigning. He said Sandford had a 51 00:03:47,879 --> 00:03:51,919 particular dislike of the Latter day Saints Church previously known 52 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,520 as the Mormon Church, and had told him that his 53 00:03:54,639 --> 00:03:59,719 followers believe they're above Jesus. So this candidate said that 54 00:03:59,719 --> 00:04:02,680 Miss Sandford told him he was deployed overseas and when 55 00:04:02,719 --> 00:04:07,479 he came home he had issues with drugs. The guys 56 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,000 originally from Michigan told him he moved to Utah for 57 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,960 a fresh start to plow snow and while there started 58 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,000 a relationship with a Latter Day Saints woman. He told him, 59 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,199 he said, they wanted me to get rid of my tattoos. 60 00:04:19,199 --> 00:04:21,319 They wanted me to do all this stuff. I wouldn't 61 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:25,120 do it, so that's why he doesn't like people that 62 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,879 are Mormons. Apparently, he said. The guy did not talk 63 00:04:28,959 --> 00:04:32,360 politics with him. He said nothing about Charlie Kirk, nothing 64 00:04:32,399 --> 00:04:35,759 about our current president or past president. He asked me 65 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,759 about guns. I said, I support the Second Amendment. We 66 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:45,000 ended the conversation very positively. So we don't know. The 67 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:49,639 guy was obviously troubled somehow. But that's a little bit 68 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,240 more of the background on the shooter. It's the chief 69 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:57,720 of it's Grand Blank, Michigan. It's ball Town, not far 70 00:04:57,759 --> 00:05:00,800 from Flint, and the chief of police. They're at this 71 00:05:00,959 --> 00:05:01,560 to say. 72 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 3: We were onseen within thirty seconds from that original nine 73 00:05:05,959 --> 00:05:10,480 to one one call. Within eight minutes, that suspect was 74 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,240 neutralized in the back parking lot of the church. 75 00:05:14,959 --> 00:05:15,319 Speaker 2: Evil. 76 00:05:16,759 --> 00:05:20,199 Speaker 3: This was an evil act of violence. That's exactly what 77 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,759 this was. And this is not Grand Blank. This does 78 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:27,160 not define Grand Blank and who we are. We are 79 00:05:27,199 --> 00:05:30,920 a community and I am confident that together we're going 80 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:36,040 to build a stronger community due to this incident. Now 81 00:05:36,879 --> 00:05:42,160 an update, this left five people dead, eight people injured. 82 00:05:43,319 --> 00:05:45,199 As I said, this is an evil act and does 83 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:49,800 not define Grand Blank or who we are At this time, 84 00:05:49,879 --> 00:05:53,399 what we know is everyone has been accounted for. We 85 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,519 still are in the process of clearing out that church, 86 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:01,839 but at this time everyone is accounted for. We asked 87 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,120 it to stay away from the scene. Let us work 88 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,279 to clear this call so then we could get back 89 00:06:08,319 --> 00:06:08,800 to normal. 90 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 2: That's what we all want. 91 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,199 Speaker 3: Grand Blank Township police officers, the community of Grand Blank Township. 92 00:06:14,519 --> 00:06:17,560 We're hurting and we know that you are hurting as 93 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:21,079 well with us.

We I could tell you that we 135 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,319 do have a twenty one year old person in custody 136 00:08:22,399 --> 00:08:23,439 for that incident right now. 137 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,399 Speaker 6: Does the suspect of the Empire ecriminal history or a 138 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:27,480 non contact with one. 139 00:08:28,439 --> 00:08:30,879 Speaker 3: Are you talking about the suspect from yesterday or today? 140 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,960 The suspect from yesterday has been arrested by law enforcement 141 00:08:36,039 --> 00:08:41,080 in the past. The suspect the five data includes the 142 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,440 suspects details. 143 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 2: Burglary and O WI that I can't give you a. 144 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 5: No, So I just wanted to say no morentos.

But 147 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:05,639 as we know, everyone has been accounted for. That's going 148 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,000 to be all the questions that we answer today. 149 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: So you may have heard that one question was about 150 00:09:10,879 --> 00:09:15,120 there was somebody arrested today, some twenty one year old idiot. 151 00:09:16,159 --> 00:09:19,759 There's police everywhere around this church. They've got the roads 152 00:09:19,799 --> 00:09:22,679 blocked off. The police are out there with roadblocks and 153 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,120 this kid in a twenty one year old is a 154 00:09:25,159 --> 00:09:29,639 man in a car tried to drive through and around 155 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:34,559 the barricades and the photograph of his car. They had 156 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,960 the door open and there was a long gun sitting 157 00:09:38,159 --> 00:09:41,480 on the seat next to the driver. 158 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 2: So who knows what that was. 159 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:46,879 Speaker 1: All about, but you think you're just asking for trouble 160 00:09:46,919 --> 00:09:52,279 to do something like that. Daniel Brunner, a former FBI guy, 161 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,600 has had this response to what was going on in Michigan. 162 00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 9: Well, that indicates to me that they've found something that 163 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,480 will differ natively show that there's a violation of federal crimes, 164 00:10:02,519 --> 00:10:06,600 a domestic terrorism incident, you know, a violation of someone's 165 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,759 civil rights, burning of the church, a lot of things. 166 00:10:09,159 --> 00:10:11,559 A lot of people will recalled back to the sixties, 167 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,480 the church burning, So those fall under FBI jurisdiction. 168 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 2: So if this individual targeted that church had. 169 00:10:19,039 --> 00:10:23,639 Speaker 9: A specific a reason to attack that church because of 170 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:27,000 its religious background, then that would indicate that that would 171 00:10:27,039 --> 00:10:31,120 most likely be a violation of someone's civil rights, thus 172 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:35,480 triggering an FBI federal investigation and having them be the 173 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:41,039 lead agency in the investigation, working alongside Michigan law enforcement 174 00:10:41,759 --> 00:10:45,200 as a parallel local investigation at the same time. Well, 175 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,000 obviously the number one thing they want to look for 176 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,240 is if there are anyone else that was co conspiring 177 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,919 with him working alongside him, that would have been probably 178 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,399 determined within the first few hours to see if there 179 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,519 was any additional threats that were out there. Right now, 180 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:04,000 they want to figure out where his pathway of violence began, 181 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,840 at which point he made the decision that this incident 182 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,480 had to occur. They're going to determine. They're going to 183 00:11:10,519 --> 00:11:12,600 look at everything, so there really isn't anything that they 184 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,440 won't look for. They're going to look for every single 185 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,080 piece of evidence along the way, and they're going to 186 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,159 also look for if there were other people that may 187 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:22,879 have helped him or could have raised the red flag, 188 00:11:23,279 --> 00:11:25,639 could have made a phone call to local authorities and 189 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,279 notified him saying this individual is troubled. This clearly to me, 190 00:11:29,759 --> 00:11:34,279 anyone that conducts these type of attacks has a mental issue, 191 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:38,120 has a mental problem, because violence is never the answer. 192 00:11:38,519 --> 00:11:42,200 So determining where this individual made the decision, the pathway 193 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,279 to violence, where it began, and that's where they're going 194 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:49,519 to determine what red flags were missed and where it 195 00:11:49,519 --> 00:11:50,399 could have been stopped. 196 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,679 Speaker 1: I know they have to do that kind of investigation, 197 00:11:54,039 --> 00:11:58,039 but there's a million billion ways that people get radicalized, 198 00:11:58,759 --> 00:12:01,120 and I don't know how. I mean, they need to 199 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,960 document it and say, this is how the guy became radicalized, 200 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,559 this is what ticked him off, this is what what 201 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,360 you know, broke the straw on the camel's back, whatever 202 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:13,679 cliche you want to use, but I just it's not 203 00:12:13,799 --> 00:12:16,080 going to change the next person that comes along and 204 00:12:16,279 --> 00:12:21,519 thinks up something bizarre in order to listen to this guy. 205 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,240 This this This is from a video from a from 206 00:12:25,279 --> 00:12:30,200 a traffic accident. A guy rammed into a police car. Listen, 207 00:12:30,279 --> 00:12:32,399 listen to this back and forth. 208 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 10: Pappened dude? 209 00:12:37,919 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 3: Oh no, man, I I've been drinking. I did that 210 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:42,399 on part for serge. 211 00:12:43,159 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 2: Well you hit me on purpose? Why, I'm bored? You bored? 212 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:52,639 So you ran in the back of me on purpose? 213 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:53,639 Speaker 10: Yeah? 214 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:54,399 Speaker 7: Why is that? 215 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 2: I hate talks? 216 00:12:56,639 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 1: Man. So he was a drunk guy and he said 217 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,120 he was board and at the end there he finally said, 218 00:13:03,279 --> 00:13:06,080 I did it on purpose, and I hate cops. So, 219 00:13:06,159 --> 00:13:08,679 I mean, I don't know how you stop any of this, 220 00:13:09,759 --> 00:13:12,919 but there's always going to be people that are, shall 221 00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:17,399 we say, mentally challenged in some way or another. So 222 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,360 we've got all of that. The other piece of violence 223 00:13:20,399 --> 00:13:24,679 over the weekend was got No almost no publicity. There 224 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:30,120 was a shooting at a waterfront bar in Southport, South Carolina. 225 00:13:30,519 --> 00:13:35,480 I'm sorry, Southport, North Carolina, and three dead, five wounded. 226 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,600 Somebody pulled up in a boat and all these people 227 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,600 are sitting out on the deck. It's Sunday evening. Was 228 00:13:44,639 --> 00:13:47,720 it Saturday even it was an evening yesterday or the 229 00:13:47,759 --> 00:13:50,960 day before. They're sitting out on this waterfront deck overlooking 230 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,120 the water. Nice evening and the guy pulls up in 231 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,639 a boat and starts unloading on them with a gun. 232 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,000 Killed three of them, wounded, five of them. 233 00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:01,879 Speaker 11: And it just. 234 00:14:03,919 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 1: I mean, the suspects alive. He's in court today. We 235 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,639 haven't found out yet what they're going to do with 236 00:14:09,759 --> 00:14:13,480 the guy. But how do you protect yourself from somebody 237 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:17,519 like that? It's just out of their mind. It did 238 00:14:17,639 --> 00:14:20,159 not get a lot of publicity because the church in 239 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:24,360 Michigan is flames coming out of it. They have the 240 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,960 hell of news helicopter overhead showing the church burning down, 241 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,399 burned all the way to the ground. But there was 242 00:14:31,519 --> 00:14:35,600 no video of what was going on at this waterfront 243 00:14:35,679 --> 00:14:41,360 bar in Southport, North Carolina. But still three dead, five 244 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:45,279 wounded there and so speaking of violence, Portland, Oregon just 245 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:49,639 seems to be I'm sure this is an exaggeration, but 246 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,399 it just seems in my mind, it's always always got 247 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,639 groups protesting, their burning buildings, doing all kinds of damage, 248 00:14:57,679 --> 00:15:00,360 and TIFA is usually the group behind all of this. 249 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,440 And so the President has said he's going to send 250 00:15:04,919 --> 00:15:09,480 troops to Portland, Oregon to do exactly what he did 251 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:14,159 in Los Angeles, is to protect ice and protect federal 252 00:15:14,279 --> 00:15:17,399 facilities in Portland. He did that during Trump one point 253 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,320 zero as well. But let's go back to this where 254 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,440 he's going to send troops to Portland because to protect 255 00:15:23,519 --> 00:15:30,120 federal property and federal officers, ice officers. And so the 256 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:34,840 governor of Oregon, her name is Tina Kotek, she's all upset. 257 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 8: Portland's doing just fine. And I made that very clear 258 00:15:39,799 --> 00:15:43,639 to the president. He thinks there are elements here that 259 00:15:43,759 --> 00:15:46,159 created an insurrection. I told him there is no insurrection 260 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,039 here and that we have this under controlled. 261 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: She actually thinks they have it under control. It hasn't 262 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:58,919 been under control for years in Portland, Oregon. I don't 263 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,519 know what to say. I mean, it's just it's constantly 264 00:16:03,279 --> 00:16:07,480 gangs of Antifa people running around burning properties and damaging property, 265 00:16:07,919 --> 00:16:11,399 and so the President sending troops there to protect federal facilities. 266 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,519 Speaker 2: And that's exactly what it did in La. 267 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:20,519 Speaker 1: And Governor Newsom in California sued Donald Trump because he 268 00:16:20,639 --> 00:16:25,200 did that, and the courts ruled. The Ninth Circuit Court 269 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:29,799 of Appeals ruled that Donald Trump, the president, was within 270 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,919 his legal rights to do that. Now, the Ninth Circuit 271 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:38,360 Court of Appeals covers the entire West coast, that would 272 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:42,320 be Portland, Oregon. So even though the so Tina Kotek, 273 00:16:42,639 --> 00:16:46,440 the governor of Oregon, is suing Donald Trump over sending 274 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,440 troops to Portland. But if I mean, a judge's got 275 00:16:49,519 --> 00:16:51,399 to look at that, say excuse me. The Ninth Circuit 276 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,960 has just ruled a couple of weeks ago that the 277 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:58,879 president was within his authority. So this isn't just troops 278 00:16:58,919 --> 00:17:01,559 taking over the street like they did in Washington, d C. 279 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:06,920 This is going because of responding to violence on the 280 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:11,720 streets of Portland. And the governor thinks that she's got 281 00:17:11,839 --> 00:17:15,160 everything under control. She's very liberal, but that shouldn't make 282 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:19,799 any difference liberals versus conservatives. Can't we all see violence 283 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:25,759 as violence, But apparently she has blinders on and so 284 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:30,279 she's all upset, and so she's suing the president, and 285 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,519 that will go nowhere, I'm sure. So let's go to 286 00:17:34,559 --> 00:17:36,240 the White House. There was a lot of activity there 287 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,519 to the day Benjamin Etna, who was in the White 288 00:17:38,519 --> 00:17:44,720 House to meet with President Trump. They have well, the 289 00:17:44,839 --> 00:17:51,720 President lined out an agreement for a ceasefire in Gaza, 290 00:17:52,599 --> 00:17:59,240 and according to again CBS News that some of the 291 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:03,319 issues are that twenty one point plan and the wording 292 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,319 on this isn't exact, but the points are accurate. The 293 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:11,039 twenty one points are a commitment to cease fire talks, 294 00:18:12,039 --> 00:18:17,359 full return of the hostages, increased amount of humanitarian aid 295 00:18:17,839 --> 00:18:23,519 entering Gaza, new governance initiative without Hamas. They want Hamas gone, 296 00:18:24,079 --> 00:18:26,759 and they will apparently came up with some sort of 297 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,920 I think this was President Trump's idea, some sort of 298 00:18:30,079 --> 00:18:35,240 international governance for which he will leave that he will 299 00:18:35,279 --> 00:18:37,799 be in charge, the president of the United States. Yes, 300 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:41,079 Donald Trump will be in charge. He's proposing that he 301 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:45,559 will be in charge of this international governance, get rid 302 00:18:45,599 --> 00:18:48,799 of Hamas, and then they will come in and I 303 00:18:48,839 --> 00:18:53,079 don't know who they're going to have un security force. 304 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:58,880 I'm not sure what, but gradual israel withdrawal from Gaza, 305 00:19:00,559 --> 00:19:04,519 maintained peace, with an end to the Israeli military operation 306 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:08,960 in Gaza, an end to any attempts to build settlements 307 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:13,000 in Gaza. There will be no annexine of the West Bank. 308 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:17,440 There will be no forced displacement of Gazans or a 309 00:19:17,599 --> 00:19:20,240 prevention of a return to Gaza for those who have left. 310 00:19:21,759 --> 00:19:25,839 Two more steps taken to protect the legal and historical 311 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:30,119 status quo of religious sites in Jerusalem. And there will 312 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:34,480 be no actions to undermine the reform of the Palestinian 313 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:39,440 Authority or prevent it from being able to govern Gaza 314 00:19:39,599 --> 00:19:43,759 and the West Bank. So complicated, a lot of push 315 00:19:43,799 --> 00:19:48,200 and shove, Like I said, Net and Yahoo and Trump met, 316 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:52,640 and they seem to be in agreement mostly on all 317 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:57,160 of this. The problem with this is Hamas every time 318 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:03,880 has rejected any of these kinds of agreements. General Jack 319 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:07,599 Keane was asked about his thoughts on this twenty one 320 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:08,160 point plan. 321 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 2: Well, this is step in that direction. 322 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 7: I mean there's a paradigm change already taking place in 323 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,599 the Middle East with what Iran has done. Excuse me, 324 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,400 what Israel has done to Iran and it's proxy supported 325 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,960 by the United States major opportunities in terms of peace 326 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:22,599 and stability. 327 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:23,920 Speaker 2: But this is the last piece here. 328 00:20:24,519 --> 00:20:28,640 Speaker 7: This is Hamas and the war in Gaza. And what 329 00:20:28,839 --> 00:20:31,119 this different than the previous deal is this is not 330 00:20:31,559 --> 00:20:35,000 just a hostage release for prison a deal. This is 331 00:20:35,039 --> 00:20:38,200 a war termination deal. And that's what the President has 332 00:20:38,279 --> 00:20:42,039 insisted on our president and that's and what's happening here 333 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,839 is all the hostages, alive and dead, must re released 334 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:49,079 at one time with a within forty eight hours of 335 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:53,720 agreement on the deal. And then it ends towards Hamas 336 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:58,559 stepping down in terms of governing Gaza and also this army. 337 00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:01,880 That's something they have ever agreed to in the past 338 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,839 and supposedly we'll see if they're going to step up 339 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:09,000 and do this. The Israelis do have some concern over 340 00:21:09,079 --> 00:21:14,160 who would be in charge after Hamas steps down. The 341 00:21:14,319 --> 00:21:18,279 proposal on the table has some Palestinian authority involved in 342 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:22,039 that from the West Bank. Israel has fundamental distrust of 343 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,799 Mumma the Bass and obviously the Evans supports that and 344 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,759 concerns over that. So those are negotiating items. I think 345 00:21:29,839 --> 00:21:33,079 that we'll see if they're able to get resolved. Then 346 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:36,039 we have a piece here. The truth is, every time 347 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,519 we've been close, it hasn't happened, and it's usually because 348 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,440 of Hamas at the last minute saying no, I'm not 349 00:21:42,519 --> 00:21:44,000 going to agree to that. But they are in a 350 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,279 much more desperate situation now, they're down to the third 351 00:21:47,319 --> 00:21:49,880 and fourth tier of leadership. They're down to a lot 352 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,920 of teenagers making up their fighting force. A desperate situation, 353 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,920 to be sure, is what I'm underscoring here for them. 354 00:21:57,599 --> 00:22:01,400 Is that enough motivation we'll see Hamas really commits to 355 00:22:01,559 --> 00:22:05,279 disarm and give up governance. That's always been a sticking point, 356 00:22:06,319 --> 00:22:09,839 and obviously the Prime Minister are accurately portraying what his 357 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:14,920 issue is here. I think on the Israeli side there 358 00:22:15,039 --> 00:22:18,039 is some negotiation room that likely could be worked out. 359 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:19,160 Speaker 2: We'll see. 360 00:22:20,559 --> 00:22:23,279 Speaker 7: I'm more optimistic about this one than any of the 361 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:28,839 others because clearly the pressure on both sides, and frankly, 362 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:33,440 the President of the United States strong involvement in the deal, 363 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:37,039 in the specifics of it and bringing it together. I 364 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,599 think that does make a difference here, and why I 365 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:41,440 have some optimism surrounding it. 366 00:22:41,599 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 1: Well, let's hope he's right, and let's join in on 367 00:22:43,799 --> 00:22:46,960 his optimism. But we'll wait to see what Hamas says 368 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:51,960 out of all of this. The school board in Des Moines, 369 00:22:52,039 --> 00:22:56,599 Iowa is all in it issy because the superintendent of 370 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,920 schools for the biggest school district in the state of 371 00:22:59,039 --> 00:23:04,119 Iowa is well. He was taken into custody by ice 372 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:08,440 because he's in the country illegally, and he had already 373 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:12,000 been given a final order of removal May of twenty 374 00:23:12,279 --> 00:23:16,240 twenty four, and he's there as the head of the 375 00:23:16,319 --> 00:23:23,240 Desboine School District. It's crazy. Chad wool, former Homeland Security secretary. 376 00:23:22,839 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 4: It's remarkable that that school system would hire someone that 377 00:23:26,759 --> 00:23:29,319 has no work authorization, that has no legal right to 378 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,079 be in the United States. So he has a number 379 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,640 of different ways to cure that illegal entry into the 380 00:23:33,759 --> 00:23:36,039 United States, and over time he's chosen not to. 381 00:23:36,279 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. 382 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,559 Speaker 1: The other part about this is school districts are hiring 383 00:23:40,039 --> 00:23:44,400 superintendents without checking their backgrounds. I mean to check not 384 00:23:44,559 --> 00:23:47,599 only for are they citizens, but just checked their backgrounds 385 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,920 and they would have found that this guy had an 386 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,680 order of a final order of removal back in May 387 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,759 of twenty twenty four. He is So what they did 388 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,039 was they said, oh, you've been arrested by ice. Well, 389 00:24:01,599 --> 00:24:04,599 this is crazy. They didn't fire him, they put him 390 00:24:04,759 --> 00:24:12,839 unpaid administrative leave. Yeah, in his car that when they 391 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:16,359 finally caught up with him, he had a handgun and 392 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:19,960 three thousand dollars in cash when he was arrested. He 393 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:23,759 came to the US from Guyana in nineteen ninety nine 394 00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,039 on a student visa. Well, he completed school and then 395 00:24:27,079 --> 00:24:30,759 he went on to a career path for being a 396 00:24:30,799 --> 00:24:38,839 school superintendent. There's a woman named Jennifer Cronin who plays 397 00:24:39,079 --> 00:24:43,400 overplays her her concern about all this. She's the mother 398 00:24:43,599 --> 00:24:47,680 of some students in Des Moines, and she calls herself 399 00:24:48,079 --> 00:24:49,160 a mom detective. 400 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:50,400 Speaker 2: This is what she had to say. 401 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:57,039 Speaker 6: I guess shocked, but not shocked. I've had a few 402 00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:02,319 dealings with the school board in probably the last six 403 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:06,319 months or so. We're concerns have been dismissed. And to 404 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:09,759 say that those were probably some mardplaces that they should 405 00:25:09,799 --> 00:25:17,039 have addressed, then I think at the minimum they should 406 00:25:17,079 --> 00:25:20,559 have taken my concerns seriously. 407 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 1: Well, the school board did not take her concerns seriously. 408 00:25:24,079 --> 00:25:24,440 Here's the. 409 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:27,920 Speaker 2: School board chairman, a chairwoman. 410 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 12: I should sitting to take a page out of doctor 411 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:34,640 Robert's book and ask the community to engage in radical 412 00:25:35,079 --> 00:25:40,839 empathy as we work through the situation together. Radical empathy 413 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:45,359 is the recognition that we can disagree and still empathize 414 00:25:45,559 --> 00:25:51,200 with each other the respect of others humanity. This concept 415 00:25:51,279 --> 00:25:54,039 will be essential as we wait to learn more. 416 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 1: Look, I'm all for we should disagree civilly if we 417 00:25:58,599 --> 00:26:02,599 have a disagreement. This isn't about an agreement or a disagreement. 418 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,799 This is about the fact that he is irre illegally. 419 00:26:06,319 --> 00:26:09,079 He has broken the law. He has had his day 420 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,799 in court and the court said you got to deport him, 421 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,000 And the school board is talking about radical empathy. 422 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 2: Back to the mom detective. 423 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:22,920 Speaker 6: When she said radical empathy to open her press conference 424 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,519 on Friday, where she didn't take any questions, my jaw 425 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:32,480 dropped because right now what we need is radical honesty, 426 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:37,279 radical transparency, and radical accountability. These are our kids we're 427 00:26:37,279 --> 00:26:42,119 talking about. This isn't any job. This is the superintendent 428 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,799 which oversees our entire school district. 429 00:26:46,039 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 9: So I. 430 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 6: Their words ring hollow to me. I think that they 431 00:26:51,519 --> 00:26:53,839 need to make sure that they're looking out for the 432 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:55,960 best interests in the safety of our kids. And I 433 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,240 don't see that happening, and that's something that I've brought 434 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,000 to their attention previously. 435 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:00,319 Speaker 4: Late. 436 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,519 Speaker 6: I will say that he was very charismatic. I will 437 00:27:04,559 --> 00:27:06,200 give you that there are a lot of people who 438 00:27:06,279 --> 00:27:09,759 felt that way and I did at the beginning as well. 439 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:15,640 That my mom radar quickly went up in I guess 440 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:17,720 the fall of twenty twenty three, so a few minutes 441 00:27:17,799 --> 00:27:21,960 after he started when he recommended in the district approved 442 00:27:22,039 --> 00:27:25,839 this idea of lifting the prohibition on not hiring people 443 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,799 with criminal backgrounds. So we have that had that going 444 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:33,279 for us, and then just throughout the last the course 445 00:27:33,319 --> 00:27:34,880 the last couple of years, there's been a lot of 446 00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,440 things that have caused me pause, caused red flags to 447 00:27:37,519 --> 00:27:40,599 go up, and my mom had and I wasn't privy 448 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:44,599 to any of the documentation or anything that they he 449 00:27:44,759 --> 00:27:49,559 may have provided during his interviewing and hiring process. But 450 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:54,000 if anything, I'm finding, just as a mom detective online 451 00:27:54,039 --> 00:27:57,599 in the last couple of days, it indicates there were 452 00:27:57,640 --> 00:27:59,799 a lot of red flags that were missed. So when 453 00:27:59,839 --> 00:28:07,200 the school districts board chair goes on TV and says, no, 454 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,680 there were no red flags, I find that hard to lead. 455 00:28:10,039 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 1: Aren't just school people supposed to be the smarter crowd 456 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:18,720 in the society. They better start looking for a new 457 00:28:18,839 --> 00:28:22,920 superintendent because I think this guy's on the next deportation 458 00:28:23,319 --> 00:28:27,200 playing that's going out there. But it just that's that's 459 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:31,319 in the heartland of America, and this guy nobody checked 460 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:35,599 on him. Amazing And finally, over the weekend, the New 461 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:39,839 York City mayor's race got more interesting. Eric Adams, the 462 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:43,720 current mayor of New York City, has decided that he 463 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:45,240 needs to drop out. 464 00:28:45,359 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 2: Here's what he had to say. 465 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 13: Despite all we've achieved, I cannot continue my re election campaign, 466 00:28:53,119 --> 00:28:54,759 but I must also sound and one. 467 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,319 Speaker 5: Extremism is growing in our politics. 468 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 13: Often the city's forces used local government to advance to 469 00:29:05,119 --> 00:29:10,279 visive agendas. Major change is welcome and necessary, but beware 470 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,880 of those who claim the answer to destroy the very 471 00:29:15,119 --> 00:29:18,880 system we built together over generations. 472 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 5: That is not changed, that is chaos. 473 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:27,079 Speaker 1: Well, essentially, Eric Adams was way behind him polling, and 474 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,759 even more important for him, he didn't have any money. 475 00:29:31,319 --> 00:29:36,319 The campaign contributions were lacking and so as a result, 476 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:38,799 he did not have the money to keep the campaign going. 477 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:43,839 He according to the polling. One of the latest polls 478 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:48,799 This is a New York Times Siena poll has Mandami 479 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:55,559 at forty one percent, Cuomo twenty six, Curtis Sliwa fourteen, 480 00:29:56,000 --> 00:30:00,920 and Eric Adams at eleven percent. So the New York 481 00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,279 Times says, Okay, what if it just comes down to 482 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:08,440 Mandanni and Cuomo. The New York Times says Mandanni would win. 483 00:30:09,119 --> 00:30:11,759 I'm saying we'd come up short. Cuomo forty six percent, 484 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:15,920 man Donnie forty one percent. Harry Enton has a little 485 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:16,960 bit different pulling. 486 00:30:17,559 --> 00:30:20,319 Speaker 10: Yeah, this move is not a thump. It is a 487 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,519 dud of a move. What am I talking about here? Well, 488 00:30:23,599 --> 00:30:27,240 take a look here. Mandanni leads regardless or whether or 489 00:30:27,359 --> 00:30:29,880 not Adams stayed in the race or whether he got out. 490 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,920 Just as he did with Adams in the race, Mandonni 491 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,799 was ahead by nineteen points with no Adams. Look at this, 492 00:30:35,279 --> 00:30:39,240 Mandanni is still ahead, and still ahead substantially by fifteen points. 493 00:30:39,279 --> 00:30:41,200 I guess you can argue the margin got a little 494 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,559 bit smaller, but either way you're looking at him, it's 495 00:30:43,559 --> 00:30:46,640 still a double digit lead for the Democratic nominee. 496 00:30:46,759 --> 00:30:47,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay. 497 00:30:47,519 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 10: The reason why it's pretty simple, and that is that 498 00:30:49,799 --> 00:30:51,319 the opposition is divided. 499 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,000 Speaker 2: Mandannie with forty five percent, and of course there's all 500 00:30:54,079 --> 00:30:55,960 this idea. Hey, you know, adams Is support is going 501 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:56,519 to go to Cuomo. 502 00:30:56,599 --> 00:30:59,480 Speaker 10: He's a thirty percent, But there's still a Republican nominee 503 00:31:00,119 --> 00:31:03,440 to Sleewa getting seventeen percent of the vote. So regardless 504 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,000 of whether or not Eric Adams left or stayed in 505 00:31:06,079 --> 00:31:08,799 the race, you still have an opposition that is divided. 506 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:09,119 Speaker 2: Mystery. 507 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,079 Speaker 10: But what happens if Curtis Sliwak drops out, Well, Andrew 508 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,880 Cmo gets to forty two percent, but mndanni still leads 509 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,559 with forty nine percent. No matter which way you slice 510 00:31:17,599 --> 00:31:20,240 the New York Pizza Pie, Mandani is still the favorite. 511 00:31:20,359 --> 00:31:21,559 Speaker 2: And I should know even. 512 00:31:21,359 --> 00:31:24,400 Speaker 10: If Andrew Cuomo got out that Curtis Sleewa would in 513 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:26,599 fact be an underdog to macdani as well. 514 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, again this is closer. 515 00:31:28,799 --> 00:31:30,759 Speaker 5: Mandani is the clear favorite going forward. 516 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 1: So the polls are not exactly the same, but the 517 00:31:33,759 --> 00:31:36,240 bottom line is it's going to be a close race 518 00:31:36,279 --> 00:31:42,400 between Andrew Cuomo and Zoron mandanis that's yeah coming up. 519 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:46,160 Oh and here's a little part of a pitch by 520 00:31:46,279 --> 00:31:49,720 Mandanni to vote for him. He wants to do socialized 521 00:31:49,759 --> 00:31:51,319 housing in New York City. 522 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,279 Speaker 11: Well further toward the Vienna model, we'll have to go 523 00:31:54,400 --> 00:31:57,400 beyond the market. We can establish community land trusts to 524 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:00,000 gradually buy up housing on the private market and convert 525 00:32:00,119 --> 00:32:02,599 it to community ownership. We can give tenants to right 526 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:04,839 a first refusal to buy out their landlords when buildings 527 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:06,599 go up for safe and we can. 528 00:32:06,559 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 2: Fully commit to a new era of social housing, ending. 529 00:32:09,839 --> 00:32:12,799 Speaker 11: Subsidies for luxury housing development, and using our wealth to 530 00:32:12,839 --> 00:32:16,720 build beautiful, high quality social housing projects that offer good 531 00:32:16,759 --> 00:32:21,440 homes and strong communities to everyone. We won't decommodify housing overnight, 532 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:23,599 but we know what we have to do, and we 533 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:24,640 have history to guide us. 534 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 1: Actually we do have history to guide is in most 535 00:32:28,519 --> 00:32:32,720 major cities there are neighborhoods called the projects. They are 536 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:37,519 government housing for low income people, and I know here 537 00:32:37,599 --> 00:32:42,319 in New York many of them are just infested with crime. 538 00:32:43,599 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 8: I I. 539 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,279 Speaker 1: Don't know what this guy's you thinking, but he thinks 540 00:32:48,319 --> 00:32:52,720 that somehow his socialized housing. He's gonna buy homes and 541 00:32:52,799 --> 00:32:55,119 then turn them over to some sort of I don't know, 542 00:32:56,279 --> 00:32:59,400 so we'll see what comes with this. But right now 543 00:32:59,519 --> 00:33:03,559 he's connect the reason why let me look at my 544 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:10,000 list here, I've got the Yeah, the reason why people 545 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:15,039 are voting is their most concerned Number one concern is 546 00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:19,680 crime twenty five percent. The second item is cost of 547 00:33:19,799 --> 00:33:23,319 living twenty percent, and the third item is lack of 548 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:28,319 affordable housing seventeen percent. And there's no question that it's 549 00:33:28,519 --> 00:33:31,559 very expensive to live in New York City and housing 550 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:35,880 is super expensive. So we'll see what they come up 551 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:39,400 with on who's going to win on this race. As 552 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:43,599 far as New York City registered voters, seventeen percent want 553 00:33:43,839 --> 00:33:51,319 all illegals deported, sixty seven percent want all illegals that 554 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:55,599 have been charged with crimes deported, and thirteen percent say 555 00:33:55,839 --> 00:34:00,839 allow everyone to stay. New York City is Democrat eight 556 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:05,440 to one when it comes to registered voters, so uh 557 00:34:05,599 --> 00:34:08,440 and Mondamie says he's going to provide also one hundred 558 00:34:08,559 --> 00:34:15,039 million dollars for illegals Defense fund. He said, they're welcome 559 00:34:15,119 --> 00:34:17,480 in New York City. But that's one hundred million dollars 560 00:34:17,559 --> 00:34:20,480 that a lot of people that try to support the 561 00:34:20,599 --> 00:34:24,679 elderly and also support education, that's one hundred million dollars 562 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:26,679 they're not going to get their hands on. So the 563 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:31,239 race is becoming It just seems clear to me, but 564 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:35,039 not according to the polls. It's pretty darn close. So 565 00:34:35,159 --> 00:34:37,280 speaking of New York, let's go down to the New 566 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:39,840 York's doctors chain. See what happened on Wall Street today. 567 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:45,920 Positive the now up sixty eight, the forty six thousand, 568 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:51,599 three sixteen, SMP up seventeen, Nasdaq up one hundred and seven, 569 00:34:52,199 --> 00:34:55,239 Gold up three dollars and seventy cents up to thirty 570 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:58,159 eight fifty eight, and the price of oil down thirty 571 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:03,000 five cents. Now it's the three dollars for one barrel 572 00:35:03,159 --> 00:35:06,280 of oil. That's it for today. Thank you for coming by. 573 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,440 I appreciate it very much.
