So lawmakers listen to it because it's on their local radio.

I know they do because when I was on the station, they would tell me, hey, I'd get it from media people who are in the DC circuit too.

Yes.

It punches way, way, way above its weight.

You know, DC is not a particularly large city, but I think we can all agree it's very influential.

I say that because, you know, what you say on the radio matters.

And I want to get your take on NATO.

I had addressed this yesterday.

My experience in the past year during the job I was in at the bureau there is we produce, I'll undersell it a little bit to not be dramatic, probably 75% of the value with our international partners on the law enforcement, counter espionage, counter terror, and certainly on the warfare front.

We're about 75% of the equation.

We're probably more, but I don't want to be dramatic.

I've seen it.

And because I would ask for something and they can't produce it sometimes, but we can produce it back when they ask.

And that was about three fourths of the time.

I think the American public is a little exhausted with international allies who become fair weather friends.

I don't want to be dramatic.

I read a piece of the Wall Street Journal where they are providing some stuff behind the scenes.

They just don't want to publicly say it.

But I think it's time that you're either publicly with us or you're against us.

And if we're going to continue to take Americans' hard-earned money and become the global police force for Europe that's got threats right next to it, we got two oceans protecting us.
