I mean, I know like the media likes to, you know, get seams between Democrats. It's the word and that people were asking me what it meant. And so can we just reframe the like, just say what you said.

You know, I think that as someone who just won on the same ballot with Donald Trump, as someone who represents a very independently minded swing state, as someone whose dad asked her what the word mean, I don't think people are dumb. I just think the Democratic Party can speak in plain English and be more effective.

I think in general, I agree with this premise that we need to change the government. And I worked in the government my entire life, right? I ran a big office at the Pentagon. If you had said to me, hey, we got to take an 8% cut, I know exactly where I'd cut, right? This idea that there's no fat on the bone is not accurate. And I'm sorry, it's just not true.

But what I cannot subscribe to is the completely reckless way they're going about this. I mean, absurd things like sticking everyone's job name into an AI-powered... you know, algorithm and, you know, cutting out anyone who had the word diversity, including like energy diversity or something, you know what I mean? Stupid stuff like that.

But then stuff that literally keeps people safe every day, right? People who are testing water, people who are looking at national threats. So, We need responsible change, not reckless change. And what this guy is firing people on a Friday, including my own family members, and then rehiring them three weeks later because you made a mistake. Any CEO in America would be fired for that.
