The idea that we're at the point where Dan Bongino getting appointed to the FBI or Kash Patel even to head the FBI, I think it's like, oh, Kash Patel, the recurring Steve Bannon guest? And it's like, oh, of course, now that that's such a common thing. I mean, it's a lot to grapple with, and I think it sort of alarmingly raises questions about what's going to happen in two or three years from now.

Yeah, I mean, well, you know, I grew up as like a young teen Republican in Texas. I mean, I was like obsessed with like Bill O'Reilly and Ayn Rand and all this stuff. And I, you know, I would stay up late listening to talk radio. And it really sticks out to me. I was like in eighth grade listening to Michael Savage.
