I just broke 50,000 on Super Bowl Sunday of followers on Instagram. All organic. And now the algorithm is working for me. Now I get a thing from Instagram. We're promoting this reel because we believe you'll get more followers. Like the algorithm is telling me. So I just posted a story. It's about these fires in L.A. and how Gavin Newsom is just destroyed.

The governor of this state of California is just destroying this state. You know, bad leadership, Mick, bad leadership. It's terrible. I mean, California, if it was a country, would be the sixth most prosperous country in the world. And they're broke and they're in debt. I mean, what is that? What is that?

They're good workers and they put in their hours and they don't understand the big picture. And it's not that difficult, but you have to want to. You can't be afraid.
