I'm asking you to call your senator today and demand they pass the Credit Card Competition Act.

I mean, it's a cliche, but like a lot of cliches, there's a lot of truth to it, is the good times make soft men and soft men make bad times. So, I mean, there's obviously been a huge correction in the United States, which is, you know, welcome, which is a sort of re-embrace of the ideals of the United States. I mean, let's hope that this has been a wake-up call for the people of Los Angeles.

I mean, it's... they are reaping what they sowed and the people of California are reaping what we sowed. And, you know, that is, you know, I mean, it's really quite symbolic. You know, it's like the neighborhoods of the of the elites in Los Angeles that are really that really got the most effective that are having to flee.

And but again, I mean, part of the reason I wanted to come on, I've been writing about it every day and trying to surface the stories of the utility, the water utility executives. And I've got a story coming out later today from a firefighter who, you know, like basically just described, I mean, the firefighters, of course, the men and women on the ground doing the hard work, they're blameless.

But I mean, the destruction, there's 29 fire departments in Los Angeles, including LA County Fire Department. You know, there's 88 cities, and people don't realize, like Los Angeles is a city, but then there's a much larger county around it with 88 cities in it. And not all of them have fire departments. In fact, most of them don't, right?

So the ones that don't have their own fire departments, they depend on LA County Fire Department. And it's been this way for a long time, so it's not like it can't work, but it definitely introduces a level of complexity into it. I mean, the priorities of these fire departments, it's not just like a social media meme. I mean, it really has been DEI.

Like, it really has been the priority of these fire departments. The first priority of the fire departments should be to put out fires and keep people safe and save lives. But the first priority has been DEI.

I mean, I mean, what are the chances, right? That like all three of these executives are, I mean... You know, it's like it's also sort of like I mean, it's it's funny because the way that the the defenders of it sort of talk about it is as though they're imposing equality. Actually, they're demanding that that it not be based on merit.
