=== Live Go-Go Music vs. Airport Wait Times (02:54) ===

[00:00:00]  Source of music, call and response.
[00:00:04]  You automatically become a part of it, but you got to see it live.
[00:00:08]  Hearing a recorded version of a Go-Go song, it don't really do nothing for you.
[00:00:12]  But if you see it live, then you can automatically embrace it.
[00:00:16]  Because Go-Go music is a live field.
[00:00:19]  You right there with it.
[00:00:20]  You right there with it.
[00:00:21]  You can't stay still.
[00:00:24]  Especially when I look around the world by me traveling so many places.
[00:00:28]  I can see that living in America has been a blessing to me.
[00:00:32]  People living in poverty.
[00:00:34]  People are poor.
[00:00:35]  People don't have water.
[00:00:36]  They don't have clothes.
[00:00:37]  They don't have food and shelter.
[00:00:39]  I'm free.
[00:00:40]  So this means a lot to me.
[00:00:42]  Whatever your dream is, go get it.
[00:00:45]  Nobody can stop you but you.
[00:00:48]  Believe in yourself, apply yourself, and be the best you can be.
[00:00:52]  This is Sugar Bear.
[00:00:54]  This is our American story.
[00:01:12]  Welcome back.
[00:01:13]  We're now in an open forum where you can call in about any public policy or political issue on your mind.
[00:01:19]  I'm going to start this segment off with some programming notes.
[00:01:23]  Today, government officials and tech leaders meet for a cybersecurity summit to discuss President Trump's new national cyber strategy, artificial intelligence, critical infrastructure, and supply chains.
[00:01:35]  You can watch that live at 3.45 p.m. Eastern on C-SPAN.
[00:01:39]  And then just after that, at 4.30 p.m., the president will address House Republicans during their annual retreat held at one of the president's golf resorts in Doral, Florida.
[00:01:50]  You can watch his remarks there live at 4.30 Eastern on C-SPAN.
[00:01:55]  So we started this morning talking about Iran, but other things facing the nation today includes how major airports are grappling with hours-long security wait times.
[00:02:05]  Excuse me.
[00:02:07]  I turned to an NBC news article.
[00:02:09]  The headline is, Major airports grapple with hours-long security wait times and TSA staffing shortages amid partial government shutdown.
[00:02:19]  It includes William P. H. Hobby Airport in Houston was experiencing wait times of nearly three hours Sunday, federal officials said.
[00:02:28]  If you just scroll down just a little bit, it goes on to say that travel at major U.S. airports turned into a nightmare Sunday with up to three hour security wait times and a shortage of TSA workers at the start of spring break travel amid the partial government shutdown.
[00:02:46]  Department of Homeland Security spokeswoman Lauren Biz said, We'll leave this here as the U.S. House is about to gavel in for what we expect to be a brief session today.
