From conversations I've had with others in his administration, it seems like that they're planning for or that you may see an executive order come out.
I think that right now they don't really know exactly what they want that to say, what he wants to have in that executive order.
At this time.
But I will say the statement that he made has really lit a fire in in the whether it's Department of War or intelligence, you know, the intelligence community.
It is lit a fire and and really given them the green light that they've been at the way from what I what the conversation the way the conversation went with me is that, you know, when they said.
We have had a hard time prioritizing this because it's not been a priority.
At the end of the day, we serve at the pleasure of the president, and if it's not a priority of the president, then it's hard to justify using resources on something that's a low priority.
But now that the president has given us that green light and just simply โ
You know, sending that social media tweet or or truth, they now feel like they have a green light and they are dedicating resources, more resources than I believe have ever been dedicated before to this topic.
And so I'm seeing I'm seeing urgency and and a motivation on this.
I think that there was โ so the administration came in.
It was evaluating Arrow, the success and the failures of Arrow, and what they can do to make it better.
And I think that this โ I think that they're exploring โ
doing something of that kind, where they're giving a kind of formal board that has much greater authority across, that would have much greater authority to actually direct the actions that, I mean, Arrow has the authority to get all the information in the world, but they can't, as I've put it before, they're not the bosses of people, right?
So they're going to people and politely asking questions
for them to spend time and resources gathering these documents and information that they do have authority to see.
And there's no denying that they don't have the authority to see that.
So, but at the end of the day,
Everybody that they're trying to work with has a boss who has given them things to work on.
And that's not that's that if that's not in their priority list, it may it may fall behind.
