Yeah, I would just say I thought the contents were interesting and that there are a couple of things. You know, there's all this, you know, oh, the Trump administration is, you know, cozying up to Russia. I mean, you know, trying to blow up these, you know, this post-World War II alliance with Europe. There are two things.

The good team. So I thought that was interesting that just for all the rhetoric, they're conscious of who's the home team. And second, it was very clear to everyone in that chat, and JD Vance raised it, 3% of America's trade goes through the Suez Canal, 40% of Europe's trade. So we are really doing this. It will help us a little bit, but it will help Europe a vast amount.

And we're doing something that helps them that they cannot do. Now, hey, they're asking that they want to be paid, but I just think it made me think that behind the scenes, a lot of this rhetoric about the US and the European schism is overblown. And we're still helping them. I thought that was interesting.

If innocent people were sent to a prison, that's a terrible mistake. And that happens. And it shouldn't happen, and hopefully it gets rectified. But I guess my bigger thought is a little bit This administration, as we discussed, they have a really ambitious agenda. They want to fundamentally change America in ways that they think will be better for kind of blue-collar, normal working Americans.

And things like this signal gate, if they made a mistake and sent innocent people to this prison, there's only so many of those mistakes they can afford before they lose kind of the mandate necessary to accomplish their goals. And, you know, hopefully it's, you know, we're in whatever. We're not even into the, you know, third full month. 66 days. 66 days. We're into the third month.

I agree so much with what you just said. Due process is important. Like America, like human rights are a core American value. And it was great you acknowledged that like the outcome in El Salvador was good. Homicides down 99.9%, lots of lives saved. And just, you know, there needs to be a balance between these.
