So after presenting that some people came to me and said, we want you to go to DC and lobby, uh, well advocate.

I don't even know what the right term is.

Okay.

I don't want to get anybody in trouble, whatever the hell the right term is either lobby or advocacy.

So I went and presented my case to our representatives in DC, those that I could get FaceTime with, which at that time was basically all of them or, uh, their

high up staff people which is who you really want to talk to anyway for the most part and at one point i'm in lee's office and i don't want to get any family in trouble but they one of his staffers ends up because we're arguing about this transfer idea and i was saying for all the reasons i just mentioned i don't think it's a good idea

And they pointed to, basically they were calling me an absolutist like they're doing now, which I'll just happily wear at this point.

What's an absolutist?

That I just want, I don't want them to take any of it now.

I don't trust them with an anchor.

So they're calling me an absolutist.

It's another way of calling me an extremist and others.

It's not just me.

There's plenty of people that are out there saying this stuff.

I mean, Cameron Haynes is saying this stuff.

He's got a huge platform.

Totally.

If you've proven yourself untrustworthy, why would I trust you with even an inch, right?

That's kind of my viewpoint on it.

So they get up and they got an actual plot map of Utah out, and they pointed at a parcel, and they said, well, what about a parcel like this?
