Look at that photograph from the plane. That looks like CGI from an apocalyptic Hollywood movie. And I looked this morning in terror and I say, I don't, this must have killed X number of people. God knows that that number is unfortunately going to increase, but I saw that we have a confirmed two people died in a fire that big. They should have never gotten that big. It should have been contained.

There should have been policy. We know that this is what happens in Southern California. But on the positive side, if we can find a small silver lining, is that, you know, the people that are fighting this fire are, you know, doing, you know, yeoman's work here. They're doing quite a job that they should be praised for.

If if I can go backwards on one small thing, which is, I think, a really important thing. Matt said something that I very rarely hear him say, because I've known him for a very long time, is that something is un-American.

And I think that he's right about that, because I want to just point out that, as you said, Megan, and as Matt said about his friends in the kind of Pasadena area, not all these people are rich. But my response to that is, yes, that's clearly true. But also, who cares? What if they all were rich? That is fine. I didn't grow up rich. I'm not rich now.

I have no special fealty to a class of social and economic class of people. That's not my concern. But I mentioned our friend Kennedy. And on Twitter, someone responded to her talking about her house potentially burning down. And someone responded, sucks to be rich. To which Kennedy responded, go fuck yourself, which is an appropriate tweet, by the way.

I think that's the next one. That's just us. That's queued up. This is a bit of that... you know, Luigi Mangione kind of class warfare that we have kind of accepting these days. Like, well, if it's rich people, then who cares? They can pay for it. Well, that's what I heard when I was in Wisconsin, you know, the day that Donald Trump was there after the riots.

burning down swathes of cities in Wisconsin. And people say, well, you know, they have insurance. It turned out a lot of them didn't have insurance. But even if that were the case, there are memories there. There are, you know, family photos. There's your entire life. And for someone to say, well, you're in a high tax bracket, so it doesn't matter as much.
