So there's a lot of focus on the Olympics right now. And it doesn't feel insensitive to talk about something that's years away because people are talking about it. Gavin Newsom is talking about it. President Trump is talking about it. And it's not even the first mega event that's coming to Los Angeles in the coming years. Can you tell us about what's on the slate for the city?

OK, so what I'm hearing is it was going to take a boatload of money to get Los Angeles ready for the Olympics. And now a boatload of money is needed to rebuild and to restore the city after these fires. Are there a lot of Angelenos right now saying, hey, let's prioritize one over the other?
