And also ended up at the Capitol on January 6th inside of Nancy Pelosi's office. Not legally, but luckily for me, Trump won. So my investigation officially got closed.

I would have stood up. That's right. But then things happen today. You see people getting jailed for just a picture, and it's like, well, you're not even standing up for a lesser crime.

Well, yeah, you always see the most unhealthy people, right? It's like, hey, you know, I'll wear a mask if you drop 80 pounds. That's how I feel like we can make an agreement. So-
