That's exactly right. Now, alongside the Biden crazy inflation, crazy overregulation, crazy spending, right? I mean, the bird flu has certainly been a massive driver in that, but it isn't just that. And, you know, as much as we would love to get the price of eggs down to $2 by tomorrow, although I think we're making some good strides, I've seen some recent numbers that

This is going to take a little while. It's going to take a little while to figure out how to solve for the flu. It's going to take a little while to get the deregulation, such as Prop 12 in California and line speeds and other things back to normal before they were in Trump 1. And frankly, just bring the cost of goods down across the country. But we're making incredible strides.

I'm so proud of this president. He has just been such a, I mean, we all know this, right? Such a warrior for everything that we care about. And my role now becomes, you know, the farmers, the ranchers, the ag community, bringing prosperity back to rural America and getting the price of those eggs down. That's at least what he's told me.

Although I will eventually go back and join you, Charlie, out in the trenches doing the great work outside. I mean, yeah, that's where my heart is. But but but it is a it really is. It's a privilege.

But it's also the food stamp program, which is a massive bureaucratic nightmare of a beast where we're not even really getting food. the food to the people who really need it most. And when we are, it includes Cokes and candy and all kinds of bad stuff. So there's massive amount of work that we need to do there. It also includes the Forest Service. So we've got the largest firefighting unit
