The judges said they shouldn't, but I'd be surprised if they hadn't done that already, frankly.

I doubt that Bezos spent a second taking Pete Hexeth aside and saying, you know, that was wrong for you to do that.

These journalists are doing the job as allowed for and as encouraged under the First Amendment of the Constitution.

I doubt he did that at all.

I'm sure he didn't.

I found it

nauseating to watch that and very, very disturbing.

And I think that it makes clear, you know, why Bezos has been doing what he's been doing, trying to repair his relationship with Trump.

And he's worried about contracts for Blue Origin.

Clearly, it's finally beginning to get into shape so that it can get government contracts.

And he wants those government contracts.

It's largely dependent on government contracts.

And of course, Amazon has a huge number of government contracts as well, particularly in the area of cloud computing and particularly in the area of national security.

I think it becomes more evident by the day why he decided in 2024, 11 days before the presidential election, to kill an endorsement for Kamala Harris and declare that he wouldn't be making presidential endorsements ever again, even though in the two previous presidential cycles, they had editorialized strongly against Donald Trump, even to the point of declaring him to be one of the worst presidents ever.

I think we see the reason for that.

He's denied it, but I don't believe those denials, frankly.

Well, sadly, he doesn't submit to very many interviews, and the interviews that he's done have been pretty soft.

So if he wants to ask me to interview him, I'd be happy to ask him that question.

We would gladly host that on our platform if you wanted.

It's really hard.
