All right, guys, are you ready to 89 00:05:19.959 --> 00:05:20.240 do it? 90 00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:21.319 Yep? 91 00:05:21.639 --> 00:05:24.519 Yes, yes on that, yes, yes, yes, it's time for 92 00:05:24.560 --> 00:05:29.120 Handle on the News with Amy neil Me lead story. 93 00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:31.600 Everybody. 94 00:05:32.319 --> 00:05:36.040 Okay, Well, as I told you, we're in for a ride. 95 00:05:36.959 --> 00:05:40.560 Starting January twentieth, we are in for a ride. And 96 00:05:40.680 --> 00:05:43.480 this is another one in the saga of Donald Trump. 97 00:05:43.519 --> 00:05:45.560 And we're only a week in, what ten days in? 98 00:05:46.959 --> 00:05:48.839 Yeah, and so this one has to do with the 99 00:05:48.879 --> 00:05:52.000 tariffs that were promised, and he came through on the terraffs. 100 00:05:52.480 --> 00:05:56.079 But the interesting part of it that I think is 101 00:05:56.160 --> 00:05:59.759 he comes in and says, by January twentieth of the 102 00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:06.160 following year of twenty twenty six, prices will be halved 103 00:06:06.519 --> 00:06:07.680 half of what we're paying. 104 00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:08.000 Now. 105 00:06:08.600 --> 00:06:10.879 Well, now, with the raising of the tariffs, prices are 106 00:06:10.920 --> 00:06:15.519 going up, because that's what tariffs do. Prices go up dramatically. 107 00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:18.040 And now he is saying. 108 00:06:17.959 --> 00:06:19.720 Well, people will understand. 109 00:06:20.720 --> 00:06:24.680 Okay, maybe they will, maybe they will the promise Trump's 110 00:06:24.680 --> 00:06:27.160 going to lower prices. Now the prices are going to 111 00:06:27.240 --> 00:06:30.040 raise because he is raising them and he is by tariffs. 112 00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:32.560 And it's a little complicated because it's not just let's 113 00:06:32.560 --> 00:06:36.279 go raise prices. I mean, there is a method to 114 00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:39.480 his madness, if you want to call it madness. He 115 00:06:39.519 --> 00:06:44.160 wants to long term create American workers, have more factories here, 116 00:06:44.519 --> 00:06:47.319 all of which in the long term may very well happen, 117 00:06:47.879 --> 00:06:49.240 but we're going to suffer. 118 00:06:50.120 --> 00:06:51.759 We're going to suffer. We're going to pay for it. 119 00:06:51.800 --> 00:06:54.480 And he is for the first time admitted. 120 00:06:54.439 --> 00:06:58.759 Americans could feel some pain as these tariffs skick in. 121 00:07:00.360 --> 00:07:02.120 You said you were going to lower the prices. 122 00:07:02.199 --> 00:07:04.920 Well, the prices are going to go up and you're 123 00:07:04.920 --> 00:07:07.480 gonna feel some pain. And I wish there was a 124 00:07:07.519 --> 00:07:09.720 little bit of honesty here, but there can't be, of course, 125 00:07:09.759 --> 00:07:12.560 when you're running for office. This reminds me of the 126 00:07:12.600 --> 00:07:18.240 big big pharmaceuticals when they were testifying in Congress against 127 00:07:18.399 --> 00:07:23.519 lowering prices for those ten or twelve big Medicare contracts. 128 00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:30.279 Looked at the senators and said, lowering prices is bad 129 00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:31.319 for the consumer. 130 00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:34.920 Keeping them high is good for you. 131 00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:42.160 Here's Trump. I promised you prices will go down. Okay, 132 00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:44.600 I've made a decision that prices are going to go up. 133 00:07:45.120 --> 00:07:46.360 But you will understand. 134 00:07:47.279 --> 00:07:49.279 You know what this You always put me in a 135 00:07:49.279 --> 00:07:51.720 position to be an apologist for him, and I do 136 00:07:51.800 --> 00:07:54.319 not want to, but I want to insert some logic. 137 00:07:54.399 --> 00:07:58.399 Those are two very different things, because one should be assumed. 138 00:07:58.839 --> 00:08:04.399 You should assume that if tariffs are instituted, that prices 139 00:08:04.399 --> 00:08:05.040 are going to go up. 140 00:08:05.120 --> 00:08:07.360 No, absolutely not, absolutely not. 141 00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:10.839 Because Trump did a fabulous job of saying that tariffs 142 00:08:10.839 --> 00:08:13.560 are coming in and they will prices will go down 143 00:08:13.600 --> 00:08:14.920 when he becomes president. 144 00:08:15.680 --> 00:08:19.600 With tariffs, this is surgery. We have gone so far 145 00:08:19.879 --> 00:08:24.639 away from the path of keeping America in a state 146 00:08:24.680 --> 00:08:28.639 of strength that we there's the only way you can 147 00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:31.519 make a difference. Hold on is are you in pain? 148 00:08:31.800 --> 00:08:34.759 Are you talking about the strongest economy on the planet 149 00:08:34.840 --> 00:08:35.799 by a long shot? 150 00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:40.360 Are you talking about full employment? Are you talking about 151 00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:43.279 the biggest military? Where am I missing here? 152 00:08:43.879 --> 00:08:47.120 We have lost? Try Our military continues to shrink as 153 00:08:47.159 --> 00:08:50.159 far as individual troops, and you know it, there are 154 00:08:50.279 --> 00:08:53.519 issues that we have that aren't just numbers. That's all. 155 00:08:53.600 --> 00:08:55.039 Okay, let me ask you something. 156 00:08:55.120 --> 00:08:57.200 Assuming that's true, what does that have to do with 157 00:08:57.240 --> 00:08:59.759 tariffs and prices going up? 158 00:08:59.799 --> 00:09:03.360 And connecting point is we have we have left the 159 00:09:03.480 --> 00:09:07.440 United States for cheaper places. If we're gonna do anything 160 00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:09.639 about it, we have to reverse that. And to reverse 161 00:09:09.679 --> 00:09:10.840 that's gonna be painful. 162 00:09:11.639 --> 00:09:14.399 Listen, by the way, Ron Reagan said the same thing 163 00:09:14.440 --> 00:09:18.320 with inflation. It's gonna hurt more than it is going 164 00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:20.559 to It's gonna it's gonna hurt more than it is 165 00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:22.320 going that in the short term. 166 00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:25.039 Here's the constitution, here's the difference. 167 00:09:25.639 --> 00:09:31.679 He didn't say, uh, inflation is good. He didn't say 168 00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:34.320 like Trump said, I Am going to cut prices. I'm 169 00:09:34.360 --> 00:09:38.080 gonna do it by tariffs. They will cut prices. You 170 00:09:38.159 --> 00:09:41.039 will not be paying as much. Comes into office signs 171 00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:44.080 the tariffs. Oh, by the way, prices are actually gonna 172 00:09:44.120 --> 00:09:47.240 go up. But uh, it's good for you, and you'll 173 00:09:47.240 --> 00:09:50.399 know that's my problem. I don't care long term, and 174 00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:52.799 this is a long term issue. By the way, long 175 00:09:52.879 --> 00:09:55.080 term issue. Biden was caught up in. This is going 176 00:09:55.080 --> 00:09:58.720 on for decades. Just don't lie to me. Please don't 177 00:09:58.759 --> 00:10:01.559 tell me that around is square. Please don't tell me 178 00:10:01.600 --> 00:10:03.039 it's raining when the sun is out there. 179 00:10:03.039 --> 00:10:06.480 Don't tell me that Biden is mentally fit. We just 180 00:10:06.600 --> 00:10:07.840 have to do it. I must have to do with 181 00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:10.480 saying that they're politicians. We heard that forever. 182 00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:15.720 At some point a politician, a president has to tell 183 00:10:15.759 --> 00:10:17.759 us the truth is that where are you saying that's impossible? 184 00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:18.639 Okay. 185 00:10:18.919 --> 00:10:21.600 So when we say prices go up, uh, and he 186 00:10:21.720 --> 00:10:25.240 says that's not true, do you think that people go, oh. 187 00:10:25.159 --> 00:10:26.440 You're right, you're right. 188 00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:29.679 I just pay thirteen dollars for a dozert eggs. It 189 00:10:29.799 --> 00:10:31.919 used to be six dollars. But prices have not gone 190 00:10:32.039 --> 00:10:33.919 up because you told me that it hasn't. 191 00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:35.039 You know. 192 00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:39.600 It's there's the reality. That is the reality on its face. 193 00:10:39.679 --> 00:10:41.960 Now I'm going to talk later on about the long 194 00:10:42.080 --> 00:10:46.600 term implications. That is important because that if we're willing 195 00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:49.799 to suck it up for two or three years, that 196 00:10:49.960 --> 00:10:53.120 may be the case long term. But don't talk to 197 00:10:53.159 --> 00:10:55.639 me about how my prices are going to go down 198 00:10:55.799 --> 00:10:59.440 immediately when I become or when you become president, and 199 00:10:59.480 --> 00:11:00.679 then why they go up. 200 00:11:00.679 --> 00:11:02.559 But wait a second, it's good that they go up. 201 00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:04.360 Ignore what I said. 202 00:11:04.519 --> 00:11:07.799 That's my bitch, Okay, And then we'll talk more about 203 00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:09.720 long term on this, because it is really interesting. 204 00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:12.240 We're trying to get hold of my partner, Savill. 205 00:11:12.679 --> 00:11:14.519 You know, I have that business with him, that Cookwaar 206 00:11:14.600 --> 00:11:18.879 business where we import cookwar and it is we're caught 207 00:11:19.000 --> 00:11:21.240 up right in the middle of this tariffs, I mean 208 00:11:21.559 --> 00:11:24.519 right now, and we're scrambling and this is what a 209 00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:26.120 lot of companies are doing. I'm trying to get him 210 00:11:26.120 --> 00:11:28.919 on this morning if we can. Good friend Neil of 211 00:11:28.960 --> 00:11:32.559 course knows him, has forever. Okay, we're coming back. I'm 212 00:11:32.559 --> 00:11:34.360 already excited. I'm already exercised. 213 00:11:34.360 --> 00:11:37.960 Now Amy our neighbors slap back. 214 00:11:38.639 --> 00:11:44.159 Trump signed executive orders placing twenty five percent tariffs on 215 00:11:44.279 --> 00:11:48.039 imported goods from Mexico and from Canada, also a ten 216 00:11:48.080 --> 00:11:52.399 percent extra rate on Canadian energy products, and then he 217 00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:56.000 also imposed a ten percent tax on all imports from China, 218 00:11:56.759 --> 00:12:00.159 Mexico and Canada. Almost immediately responded and said, yeah, well 219 00:12:00.200 --> 00:12:01.320 we're gonna tear if you back. 220 00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:05.360 Yeah, trade wars. You know, my dad's bigger than your dad. 221 00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:08.039 No, no he's not. My dad is bigger than your dad. No, No, 222 00:12:08.120 --> 00:12:11.080 it's the other way around. Tit for tat back and forth. 223 00:12:11.320 --> 00:12:13.440 Does that mean that it's going to be more expensive 224 00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:18.559 to go see a Ryan Ryan Reynolds movie or I 225 00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:20.600 hope that does fentanyl go up? 226 00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:24.480 Uh? That's it, that's it, Yeah, because fentanyl is going 227 00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:27.399 to be closed down because Trump is arguing what the 228 00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:31.399 big reason for Mexico two reasons, illegal immigration, fentanyl. Uh, 229 00:12:31.480 --> 00:12:34.600 and and he's hitting the tariffs and we'll talk more 230 00:12:34.639 --> 00:12:37.000 about that, because man, it's going to hit Everybody's. 231 00:12:36.519 --> 00:12:39.799 Gonna hit everybody in uh, in Canada, It's can hit 232 00:12:39.799 --> 00:12:43.000 everybody in Mexico. Because we have a world economy. 233 00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:47.679 Now, that's the problem when that people talk about we 234 00:12:47.679 --> 00:12:54.440 shouldn't have borders those people financially economically, we really don't. However, 235 00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:58.759 we do now and we'll talk more about this. It's 236 00:12:58.799 --> 00:13:01.120 it's just going to start to This is going to 237 00:13:01.159 --> 00:13:02.080 be on the table. 238 00:13:01.840 --> 00:13:02.360 For a while. 239 00:13:02.879 --> 00:13:06.200 Yeah, and it spreads everywhere. Last night, yet thousands of 240 00:13:06.200 --> 00:13:10.159 people marching in downtown Los Angeles, closing off the one 241 00:13:10.159 --> 00:13:13.440 to one freeway, causing major gridlock. What were they doing? 242 00:13:14.120 --> 00:13:20.240 They were protesting ice and the mass deportations that Trump 243 00:13:20.399 --> 00:13:21.720 has signed into orders. 244 00:13:21.879 --> 00:13:24.600 Yeah, well, why do these people think that somehow blocking 245 00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:27.879 the freeway is in any way going to get me 246 00:13:27.960 --> 00:13:30.440 more on their side or somehow help their cause. 247 00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:33.240 What it's not like we don't already know what the 248 00:13:33.320 --> 00:13:33.840 issue is. 249 00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:38.039 This is when there should be an exemption under the 250 00:13:38.120 --> 00:13:42.480 law about running over people with eighteen wheelers, there has 251 00:13:42.559 --> 00:13:43.440 to be an exemption. 252 00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:47.039 Well, that doesn't solve anything. 253 00:13:46.799 --> 00:13:50.000 But oh it souls plenty because the freeways open at 254 00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:50.960 that point. 255 00:13:51.440 --> 00:13:53.440 You do got to wonder why it's not just straight 256 00:13:53.480 --> 00:13:56.559 up illegal to what run over people with an aho 257 00:13:56.600 --> 00:13:58.240 wheeler out in the middle of the freeway. 258 00:13:58.320 --> 00:14:01.240 It is illegal to anybody what. 259 00:14:01.639 --> 00:14:02.639 They didn't arrest anybody. 260 00:14:02.840 --> 00:14:04.360 They don't why would they arrest anybody? 261 00:14:04.440 --> 00:14:06.679 Well, first of all, arresting thirty thousand people is a 262 00:14:06.679 --> 00:14:10.159 little bit problematic, but it's when you have enough. 263 00:14:10.080 --> 00:14:14.000 Numbers, what are you gonna do twenty thousand people on 264 00:14:14.039 --> 00:14:18.240 the freeway? Who do you accept expect to enforce that? 265 00:14:18.480 --> 00:14:20.320 Why don't you go with a bullhorn and say, hey, 266 00:14:20.519 --> 00:14:22.639 we're gonna go eeny meeni mini mo, and then just 267 00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:25.240 start grabbing people at random, saying okay, you want to 268 00:14:25.240 --> 00:14:25.720 be picked up. 269 00:14:25.759 --> 00:14:28.519 Oh, by the way, it han't be just a slight misdemeanor. 270 00:14:28.519 --> 00:14:30.200 It has to be twenty five years to life. 271 00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:32.159 And then people can think, all right, maybe I shouldn't 272 00:14:32.159 --> 00:14:36.039 block a freeway. I feel pretty strongly about getting I 273 00:14:36.120 --> 00:14:38.440 feel pretty strongly about freeways being blocked off. 274 00:14:38.600 --> 00:14:40.840 The scoop planes for yeah, for water. 275 00:14:41.200 --> 00:14:46.960 Okay, with that, the delicate operation to raise the wreckage 276 00:14:47.200 --> 00:14:50.320 is getting underway. The US Army Corps of Engineers is 277 00:14:50.399 --> 00:14:55.559 expected to begin operations today to remove the fuselage of 278 00:14:55.639 --> 00:15:00.000 the plane and the helicopter from the potent Potomac Potona. 279 00:15:00.440 --> 00:15:02.120 You're just going to sound like me, jesu. 280 00:15:02.279 --> 00:15:04.519 Wow, you just got corrected. By handle on it. 281 00:15:04.639 --> 00:15:06.279 That's okay, that's a problem. I know. 282 00:15:06.559 --> 00:15:10.200 Yeah, so much of the rivers still off limits, and 283 00:15:10.320 --> 00:15:16.320 they've been attempting to lift the fuselage and have found 284 00:15:16.360 --> 00:15:18.759 more bodies. They say it's going to take three days 285 00:15:18.799 --> 00:15:20.480 to get all of the plane out of the off 286 00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:24.120 out of the water. They've identified fifty five of the 287 00:15:24.159 --> 00:15:26.200 sixty seven people killed in the crash. 288 00:15:26.279 --> 00:15:28.440 Yeah, they'll identify all of them, but some of them 289 00:15:29.080 --> 00:15:32.159 are caught up in the wreckage, and that makes recovery 290 00:15:32.559 --> 00:15:35.000 much more difficult because they have to be very cognizant 291 00:15:35.080 --> 00:15:38.279 that there are lost human beings there. And the investigation 292 00:15:38.399 --> 00:15:44.000 is now continuing, and everybody, especially the NTSB, is saying, hey, 293 00:15:44.039 --> 00:15:47.840 let's not rush the judgment here because we're immediately saying 294 00:15:47.879 --> 00:15:50.639 it's the helicopter's fault. But yesterday, if you heard the 295 00:15:50.679 --> 00:15:54.080 guy who is head of the NTSB, who is the 296 00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:57.159 lead investigator they've got they're getting. 297 00:15:56.919 --> 00:15:59.120 Two different kinds of readings. 298 00:15:59.440 --> 00:16:02.960 One says the helicopter is at I think three hundred 299 00:16:02.960 --> 00:16:05.600 and fifty feet. The other, and these are the recorders 300 00:16:05.679 --> 00:16:08.000 on the plane as well as the helicopter, say it 301 00:16:08.039 --> 00:16:10.200 was a little over two hundred feet and they have 302 00:16:10.279 --> 00:16:13.159 to reconcile them because this is not unusual. 303 00:16:13.200 --> 00:16:14.320 It shows different readings. 304 00:16:14.360 --> 00:16:17.120 It's a little more complicated than just oh, the helicopter 305 00:16:17.360 --> 00:16:19.679 was at you know, three hundred and fifty feet and 306 00:16:19.720 --> 00:16:21.120 was supposed to be a two hundred feet and the 307 00:16:21.159 --> 00:16:23.679 airplane was doing everything it should have, which it was. 308 00:16:23.799 --> 00:16:28.320 By the way, the aircraft was landing, followed the instructions 309 00:16:28.320 --> 00:16:28.960 from the tower. 310 00:16:29.159 --> 00:16:33.720 All right, no one sees the wizard, no way know how. 311 00:16:33.799 --> 00:16:37.320 Two top security officials at the US Agency for International 312 00:16:37.320 --> 00:16:42.159 Development were put on administrative leaves Saturday night because they 313 00:16:42.200 --> 00:16:49.360 refused officials from Elon Musk's new Department of Government Efficiency confusion. 314 00:16:49.559 --> 00:16:51.759 I don't know, maybe they wanted it looks like maybe 315 00:16:51.759 --> 00:16:55.440 they wanted access to some classified information, which they got 316 00:16:56.320 --> 00:16:59.759 they finally did. But do they have security clearance? No? 317 00:17:01.000 --> 00:17:05.480 This is and that's really weird because certain areas the 318 00:17:05.519 --> 00:17:09.200 government don't have security clearance others. The only person that 319 00:17:09.319 --> 00:17:12.920 has security clearance in anything he wants, of course, as. 320 00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:16.160 The president, absolute security clearance as to anything. 321 00:17:16.480 --> 00:17:20.160 So although in certain cases the CIA doesn't even give 322 00:17:20.200 --> 00:17:22.279 the president access. 323 00:17:22.319 --> 00:17:25.000 And it's really a weird situation. But legally it's of 324 00:17:25.079 --> 00:17:26.440 course he's the head of state. 325 00:17:27.119 --> 00:17:30.119 So Musco's in there, and you're gonna find, uh that 326 00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:35.880 just entire agencies are going to be wiped out. For example, 327 00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:40.960 US AID is they put that on hold. Foreign Aid 328 00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:43.720 has been stopped. You got kids that are starving, you 329 00:17:43.759 --> 00:17:46.759 know that rely on this and they're eating sand. 330 00:17:46.960 --> 00:17:48.680 Now it's it's. 331 00:17:50.559 --> 00:17:52.680 And it's not because by the way that the administration 332 00:17:52.759 --> 00:17:58.680 wants kids to starve. It's uh, the the appearance as 333 00:17:58.680 --> 00:18:00.920 far as the administration is concerned. Learn that there's fraud, 334 00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:03.440 there's waste, and money's being thrown away, and there's a 335 00:18:03.440 --> 00:18:05.119 bunch of allegations being thrown that way. 336 00:18:05.200 --> 00:18:07.599 So we're going to go through that one too. Things 337 00:18:07.640 --> 00:18:10.000 are changing, Boy, things are changing. 338 00:18:11.680 --> 00:18:16.279 Dow's taking a dive. US doock market futures plunged yesterday 339 00:18:16.359 --> 00:18:19.240 after Trump announced those twenty five percent tariffs on Canada 340 00:18:19.279 --> 00:18:22.279 and Mexico in ten percent on China. The Dow futures 341 00:18:22.279 --> 00:18:25.720 were down more than six hundred points as trading got 342 00:18:25.759 --> 00:18:28.519 ready to open. And now the market is open and 343 00:18:28.680 --> 00:18:31.759 trading is down for the Dow four hundred ninety points 344 00:18:31.799 --> 00:18:34.000 and the Nasdaq is off three sixty nine. 345 00:18:34.119 --> 00:18:35.680 We'll see what happens at the end of the day. 346 00:18:35.799 --> 00:18:39.680 But it's it's going to cost some real, real financial strain. 347 00:18:39.799 --> 00:18:44.880 There's no question tariffs, particularly a trade war, is going 348 00:18:44.920 --> 00:18:45.400 to be tough. 349 00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:46.400 It really is. 350 00:18:47.720 --> 00:18:50.880 Well handful of days in office, still a lot of shakeup. 351 00:18:50.920 --> 00:18:53.799 As we've been pointing out this morning, this time when 352 00:18:53.799 --> 00:18:58.240 it comes to DEI and the order from President Donald Trump, 353 00:18:59.000 --> 00:19:03.119 you have dozens of US Department of Education officials suddenly 354 00:19:03.119 --> 00:19:08.000 put on paid administrative administrative leave rather on Friday night. 355 00:19:08.160 --> 00:19:11.559 The employees worked in multiple offices across the agency, including 356 00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:15.640 civil rights attorneys. You have public relations I specialists, all 357 00:19:15.759 --> 00:19:18.240 kinds of folks that have been put on leave. 358 00:19:18.960 --> 00:19:22.440 Yeah, and the union said. 359 00:19:23.799 --> 00:19:27.240 That even these people will help students defrauded by colleges. 360 00:19:28.039 --> 00:19:31.240 So it's a question of getting rid of fraud by 361 00:19:31.279 --> 00:19:33.039 getting rid of the people who. 362 00:19:32.880 --> 00:19:35.119 Are trying to get rid of fraud. It's a little complicated. 363 00:19:35.119 --> 00:19:40.079 Although the administration said the leave placement is not being 364 00:19:40.079 --> 00:19:42.920 done for any disciplinary purpose, but was pursuant to that 365 00:19:43.119 --> 00:19:44.039 executive order. 366 00:19:45.119 --> 00:19:47.160 So no one is accused of any wrongdoing. 367 00:19:48.119 --> 00:19:52.079 It's a question they were involved in programs that the 368 00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:54.920 executive order has now said are gone. 369 00:19:57.079 --> 00:20:02.759 Ooh oh, say, can you you see Canadians booing the 370 00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:09.079 USA fans at a Toronto Raptors game.
