Joining us now to discuss the targeting of Tesla and the broader mission of Doge is Senator Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee. Senator, first of all, thank you so much for coming on. Sure.

Well, I know we've been tracking polling very closely and the American people continue to support the mission of Doge. Whether or not the name Doge itself is popular, the mission is for sure.
