Kara Frederick, Director of Tech Policy at The Heritage Foundation & Former Facebook Intelligence Analyst and Carl Szabo, NetChoice VP & General Counsel & Professor of Internet Law at George Mason University’s Scalia Law School break down the latest drop from Twitter and the suppression and silencing of opposition voices to the left. Even now the MSM will not cover the news from the Twitter files and internal memos squelching the first amendment for many. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
You want smart political talk without the meltdowns?
We got you.
And I'm Carol Markovich.
And I'm Mary Catherine Hamm.
We've been around the block in media and we're doing things differently.
Normally it's about real conversations.
Thoughtful, try to be funny, grounded, and no panic.
We'll keep you informed and entertained without ruining your day.
Join us every Tuesday and Thursday.
Normally on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
We could see setbacks along the way as well.
We shouldn't take anything for granted.
What is clear is my economic plan is working, and we're just getting started.
I think we'll see a substantial reduction in inflation in the year ahead.
It's gonna take a year.
Well, I believe by the end of next year you will see much lower inflation.
So signs are pointing in the right direction.
We do not appear to be in a recession at this point.
The data do not indicate that.
Freedom is back in style.
Welcome to the revolution.
Yeah, we're coming to your city Gonna play our guitars and sing you a country song Sean Hannity.
More behind the scenes information on breaking news and more bold inspired solutions for America.
All right, hour two, Sean Hannity Show 800941.
Sean, you want to be a part of the program.
So what do we do when our FBI is trying to influence in the lead up to an election?
And kind of persuade them in a way that, well, you don't want to be a victim of hacked materials or disseminating um false information from Russia or China, and then all of them in unison decide, oh, we can't run with the Hunter Biden laptop story published just weeks before the 2020 presidential election, uh, because uh we we're told by the FBI that this isn't a good idea.
Because that's what happened.
I've been through the FBI putting their thumb on the 2016 election, and now we have two presidential elections in a row where they're putting their thumb on the scale in terms of one party over another party.
Um, you know, we had Jack Dorsey, uh former CEO of Twitter.
He he told me, no, Twitter doesn't shadow ban.
Listen to this.
Let me ask about specific questions.
Has Twitter ever been involved in shadow banning?
We do not shadow ban according to political ideology or viewpoint or content, period.
Uh we every every model that we have on the network uh is really looking at the behaviors on the network.
Uh we take those behaviors as signals.
And I do want to point out that these signals evolve uh minute like minute by minute, hourly by hourly.
These are not scarlet permanent letters that people then take on as a badge and will never be ranked high in search or not allowed to trend or ranked high in conversation.
So these are models that are looking at behaviors and behaviors of bad faith actors who intend to manipulate, distract, divide uh a conversation, um, or to unfairly amplify their content, which they didn't earn.
So those are the signals that factor in.
Uh and and we do rank uh search, we do rank trends, and we do rank conversations accordingly.
That does not affect one's timeline.
If you follow someone on Twitter, you're going to see them in your timeline.
Now we do uh rank the timeline for relevance, so it might take some scrolling to see everything.
But you can also turn that ranking off in the settings so you can see everything in recency order.
And then of course, Elon Musk had a little call on show, and what did he say?
He said, Yeah, the very definition of election interference is the suppression of information, which is what happened at Twitter, but not just at Twitter, but all these big tech companies.
And this is Elon Musk even saying that it got so bad that Twitter served as the arm of the Democratic National Committee.
You are basically exposing collusion between the political party and uh in one uh file that was it wasn't even uh called the Biden team contacting uh Twitter.
I mean, that is uh election interference, isn't it?
Yeah, it's yeah, I mean I think clearly if if if Twitter is doing one team's bidding before an election, shutting down defending voices um on a political election, that is the very definition of election interference.
And what the hell else were doing of course?
Yes.
Um frankly, Twitter was acting like an awe of the Democratic International Committee.
It was absurd.
All right, joining us now, Kara Frederick is with us, director of tech policy at the Heritage Foundation.
Also with us called Zabo is the net choice VP and general counsel and professor of internet law at George Mason University, Scalia's Law School.
Uh welcome both of you uh to the program.
Uh let me ask you, uh Mr. Zabo, really simply did the FBI by going before all these big tech companies in the lead up to the twenty twenty election, they were weekly meetings uh and telling them that they might be getting hacked materials or phony information from Russia or China or hostile regimes.
Did they in that sense were they preparing these companies for the Hunter Biden laptop story because they had the laptop since December of twenty nineteen, eleven months prior.
Do you believe that was done by design?
Sean, thanks for having me on.
Uh that's what keeps us all up at night.
That's the outstanding question.
And that seems to indicate what we're learning from these Twitter files that are being dumped by Elon Musk, as well as what we heard from Mark Zuckerberg a couple of months ago, that the FBI had been approaching all of the social media platforms, that they had information for over a year, and that they were essentially engaging in coercion of social media platforms to suppress the story.
And that you know, I as an attorney, I can't give you a definitive yes or no because I think the information just isn't out there yet.
But I am excited because just the other day, Representative Jim Jordan began sending out letters to the tech CEOs to figure out what the heck the Department of Homeland Security, the FBI, were saying to these platforms.
And then I look forward to when Republicans take the gavel in the new year, when Representative Jordan, Representative Comer can haul the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Justice before them, and really find out and get to the bottom of how much the FBI engaged and potentially coerce the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptep story.
I mean, it's that big a deal because now we even have uh surveys saying that people would have voted very differently had they known the story was true.
Cara, let's get your take.
Yeah, we've had multiple polls indicating that this has explicit political implications, um, not just in you know, across the electorate, but in wing states in particular.
Uh so I think it it absolutely had um I mean most of American voters think that this constituted election interference.
Um, and that's separate from the polls I previously mentioned.
And you know, you hear the FBI equivocating at this point.
They're saying, oh no, no, no.
We just made suggestions.
We can't force private companies to make decisions.
But when they're putting the thumb on the scale in this way, a private company is going to feel compelled by the government to actually uh make these decisions.
Um Hunter Biden was explicitly mentioned according to the former head of trust and safety, Joel Roth.
Uh, Zuckerberg said he can't remember if Hunter Biden was in vogue.
Uh, but as Carl said, that FBI uh propaganda dump that he admitted to on Rogan.
Uh you know, the writing was on the wall there for him.
Yeah, he waited that's right.
He admitted that on Rogan, number one, and number two, this guy Yoel Roth that worked at Twitter, he specifically remembers being told that it could be about Hunter Biden.
Now there's one other piece of the puzzle, because the FBI also knew that Rudy Giuliani had the story.
Uh they also knew because they had uh all of Rudy's files that that Rudy was actively working to get this information out publicly.
You know, when Rudy got when his house got raided, they took everything but Hunter Biden's laptop.
How interesting is that part of it?
But the FBI already had their copy for eleven months.
Uh Are we really to believe that in eleven months they didn't authenticate whether or not that was really Hunter Biden smoking crack or with hookers or talking about his dad and implicating his dad in this you know potential pay for play scandal or influence pedaling scandal that uh complaining that half his money income goes to dad?
Uh we know he gets all these millions of dollars from from hostile regimes uh with no experience whatsoever.
Wasn't that what Ukraine was all about?
He goes on Good Morning America.
Yeah, do you have any experience in energy?
No.
Any experience at natural gas?
No.
Oil, no.
Uh Ukraine, no.
Well, why do you think they're paying you millions?
I don't know.
That's what he said.
And the and then Joe, of course, leveraging a billion taxpayer dollars to fire the prosecutor.
We t that turns out was investigating his son.
But he never talked to his son, according to to Joe about his foreign business dealings.
Does that seem credible to you, Carl?
Because not it doesn't seem so to me.
Absolutely not.
I mean, and and let's keep in mind, it's not just the FBI.
You had all these dinosaurs from the Clinton administration coming out of their their caves to denounce the Hunter Biden laptop as something that seems like Russian disinformation.
And those individuals I look forward to getting hauled before Congress and asking, what was your basis?
Were you influenced?
Did you coordinate?
How was that done?
But Sean, it it doesn't just stop there.
This is happening every single day in this current administration.
Let's look at uh what happened when Elon Musk decided to acquire Twitter.
The Biden administration immediately called for the creation of a disinformation governance board led by Mary Poppin.
That's not a coincidence.
That's Democrats getting really scared that Twitter is going to be uh opened up and it's no longer going to be exclusively for promoting the information that they want.
Simultaneously.
You have just the other day, Corinne Jean Pierre, White House spokesman coming out and saying they're keeping an eye on what Elon is up to.
So this level of coercion didn't just stop with the Hunter Biden story, is continuing today to keep the finger on speech online.
And this is what I look forward to getting more information on.
And this is where we need to begin overall shrinking the size of the federal government completely.
Terry was exactly right.
There are many levers that the government can le use to pressure businesses to suppress or promote speech.
You have calls uh for the Federal Trade Commission to stop Elon Musk's acquisition.
You've calls from Cyphyas to reverse the acquisition.
So there are a lot of levers that the government has, and what we need to do as a people, as I hope this next Congress will do, is start to actually shrink the size of the U.S. government is overly bloated and is way too controlling of the levers of power across this country.
All right, quick break, we'll come back.
We'll talk more about Twitter and the FBI putting their thumb on the scales of presidential elections.
All right.
We continue our discussion about Twitter with Kara Frederick and Carl Szabo is with us.
800-941-SHAWN is on number.
If you want to be a part of the program.
I I have great respect for the FBI.
I have friends in the FBI, I had relatives in the FBI.
The FBI, Kara should be the world's premier law enforcement agency.
Now Jim Jordan uh in the Judiciary Committee is now gonna have to investigate whether or not the FBI has been politicized and whether or not the DOJ has been weaponized.
Uh based on what we know, it certainly seems like uh it's widespread, doesn't it?
Oh yeah, and that's the story of this administration's uh DOJ, especially.
Uh we saw, like you said, the FBI, I've quoted this before, but Victor Davis Hansen has said the FBI is now acting like the Praetorian Guard.
Uh so you have them cleaning up after Hunter Biden.
Remember he had illegal firearms, one of which was dumped in his in a dumpster by uh a paramour.
You have them cleaning up over um uh James uh O'Keefe at Project Verittoff, uh trotting him out in his underwear uh because he had uh Ashley Biden's diary and the FBI cleaned that up as well.
So that is uh to my mind uh a different FBI than the one that we grew up with, and the GOJ in particular, when they're instituting terrorist tags on parents who object for uh that CRT is being taught in their schools, then you have a huge problem.
When domestic terrorism is treated as stuff the left doesn't like and written into um not just DOJ but but DHS as well too.
This is an agency problem.
This is another.
By the way, that impacts somebody in my crew here, uh, Linda, our producer, she's like a tiger mom, and she's at every school board meeting.
I'm sure she's on the list of domestic terror possible potential uh uh domestic terrorists because I think you know, if you dare teach her her precious child Liam anything she doesn't approve of, God help you.
Exactly, exactly.
And that's what's happening in uh Biden's America today.
He's using these intelligence agencies to to clean up his messes, to do his dirty work, to do the less dirty work, and Americans on uh Wallstripe should rise up and say absolutely not.
So Jim Jordan uh Carl has a solution, he thinks, and he's introduced legislation called protecting speech from government interference act.
Now, I like that.
You would think that would be covered under the first amendment, but apparently it's not uh as we witnessed this election, presidential election, the more recent one in 2020, and we witnessed in 2016 as well, and I talked at length about how the FBI used an unverifiable dirty dossier.
Uh they couldn't give Christopher Steele the million-dollar bounty to prove that it was authentic and accurate and true, but they used it anyway is the bulk of information to secure not one but four FISA warrants uh putting out applications with information that was not verified, even though it says on the top of a FISA application that this information's verified.
And by the way, nobody in the FBI got held accountable for that.
Yeah, the the Jordan bill that you allude to is a fantastic step forward.
Look, I I used to be a federal employee, don't hold that against me.
But one of the things that I learned, and much like how the FBI used to be, is public service public trust.
You work for all Americans, not a political party.
Today we have federal laws called the Hatch Act, which precludes federal employees from engaging in political activity while they're on the job.
Now, one thing federal employees care a hell of a lot more about than their politics is their pension.
And what uh Representative Jordan's bill does is goes straight after their pensions, it goes straight after their jobs.
It makes it very crystal clear that whether you're in the White House, whether you're in the executive branch, the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security, regardless.
If you engage in coercion of social media platforms for political purposes, you will lose your job.
You will face incredible penalties, not to the agency, not to the reputational harm of your bosses, but you personally will lose your job.
You will lose your pension.
And that's how we make it crystal clear to these rogue woke federal employees that there are repercussions, not for the reputation of the agency, but for them personally.
And that's what Representative Jordan's bill does.
It's a great first step forward in stemming the tide of what we're seeing and re-establishing trust in the government.
Unbelievable times we're living in.
Thank you both for what you're doing.
I think uh the information that you're putting out every day is really waking people up to exactly how bad a lot of this has been and how bad it is, and what we need to do to fix it.
Uh, Kara, thank you.
Carl, thank you.
We appreciate you being on board.
800-941 Sean on number you want to be a part of the program.
This is the Sean Hannity Show.
All right, 25 to the top of the hour.
Thanks for being with us.
Toll-free, it's 800-941 Sean, if you want to be a part of the program.
So, Sweet Baby James and I had a conversation uh with a mutual friend, somebody we've known for a long time.
His dad happened to be in radio for many, many years.
Uh his name was Roy Masters, kind of around the Barry Farber, Barry Gray era, if you're into the history of talk radio.
And I remember hearing his uh David Masters' dad at night scaring the hell out of me, you know, talking about good and evil, and I'm like, you know, I'm it's late at night, the room is dark, and I'm like, wow, this is scaring the crap out of me.
But it was fascinating radio, and and what got me into radio was staying up late into the night, driving my parents crazy.
My my parents would come in my room, usually they would tell my friends, turn that television off.
For me, it was turn the radio off.
And I never wanted to turn the radio off.
Uh but anyway, so I had a passion and an interest in this.
Um, a lot of the discussion was about fear and about how human beings live their lives in fear.
Um and then I've noticed over the course of what, 27 years on television and all these years, I started radio in 1987 was the first time I got behind a radio microphone.
I guess I'm I'm I'm showing my age here.
And uh I noticed that at different times people, especially on TV, are so nervous.
They just are like uh petrified.
I was down remember the Terry Shivo case?
I told the story on the air before.
So there was a nurse that had taken care of Terry Shivo.
And the question was whether or not she should be taking off life life support.
Her parents did not want that to happen.
Her ex-husband did want that to happen and there was suspicion surrounding him.
Nothing was ever proven but at the time this lady was very confident as a nurse of Terry Shivo that she believed she saw life in her.
So she she agreed to be a guest on the show.
She sits down and literally she is shaking like a leaf.
If you look if you ask most people what their number one fear is it's public speaking.
She's shaking like a leaf this poor lady and and she goes what do why I say I'm like all right this is gonna be a really really crappy interview.
Um because she's not gonna and it's cause she's gonna be embarrassed.
So what I did was I kind of tapped her on the shoulder just slightly harder than a normal hey how are you pat on the back and then I noticed that she like looked at her shoulder and all of a sudden the shaking stopped and then I said then I shook her hand and I shook it just a little tighter than you normally would.
I'm not trying to hurt anybody and what I was doing very consciously was trying to break this pattern that was going on in her mind and that is that she was swimming in a sea of thoughts those thoughts were creating feelings of fear and the feelings of fear then got her mind spinning even faster and it's this pattern it's it's thoughts create feelings feelings create thoughts etc etc.
And anyway that's what what Roy Masters used to talk about on his show and his oldest son David wrote a book how to escape the prison of your mind and how the war between good and evil is waged in the battlefield of your mind and sweet baby James and I were talking to David and I said well why don't you come on the air and talk about it and he's with us now we're gonna put a link on Hannity.com if you want to get a copy of the book you can read it yourself.
Uh it's on Amazon.com we'll put it on Hannity.com and uh anyway David Masters welcome to the program.
What a fantastic opening Sean and what I want to say to you in response is this that the reason why you are resilient is because your thoughts are your own other people have not been able to impose their thinking their negativity on you.
But if they had they would have disabled you they would have crippled you and that has not happened.
you're stronger than you've ever been.
But you see, most people do not realize that all of their thoughts are not their own.
Now, most people can say at some point, God, where did that thought come from?
And at that moment, there is a potential to gain control.
But if you don't realize that there are thoughts constantly attacking your mind, we are under mind attack all the time.
And this is the reason why is because once they can penetrate your defenses, they can begin to know, they can actually calculate the outcomes of how you're going going to react and so one of one of the things that I try to explain to people is that in World War I and World War II there was a condition called shell shock.
And it continued into the Korean war and other wars but by the way that may that may be called PTSD today, right?
That's exactly right it's known today as PTSD but I'm saying to you and yeah and I know you agree with this there's no difference between shell shock and culture shock.
Post traumatic stress is affecting everyone and the intended result of systematic worry about economic collapse, crime and corruption, sexualizing children, social violence, uncontrolled, national security, territorial integrity,
unemployment, health education, housing, food security it's all weaponized and what they're doing is the more we are reacting to this without realizing it the more upset we become every time we see this happening the this stress is hypnotic and the intended the intended end result Is drug addiction, mental illness, and suicide.
And these are the results that we're seeing today, Sean.
So I work with people at the Fox News Channel.
I don't know if you know this this past year.
I became the longest running primetime cable news host in the history of cable news, and nobody's more surprised about that than me.
They should have fired me after three days on the job.
I was so bad at it.
Uh but I am and when new people come to work at Fox and they get that first article written about them that's negative, or there's a pejorative in there, or there's a sentence or or they said something that that people made fun of, but whatever it happens to be, and they'd come to me and they'd they'd be upset and they'd be anxious and they'd wonder if they're gonna get fired and and how do you deal with this, and I'd always tell them, I'd say, Look, when you get home tonight, just Google my name.
And for the first thing that'll probably come up is Sean is Satan, Sean Hannity Satan.
Right.
And inevitably, every person I'd give that advice to would come back in the next day, they say, How do how do you put up with that?
I'm like, I don't read it.
I don't pay attention to it.
And I said, if I do see it, I either laugh at it or I just don't care.
And I said, Welcome, and then I would always end it with welcome to the big leagues.
Because this is what you're gonna get if you're putting yourself out there in the public eye on a platform as big as Fox.
And I think what if I did learn anything, it's that I don't let people impact my feelings, my mood on any given day.
Well, sometimes my kids can piss me off, but that's a different story.
Linda pisses me off some days, sweet baby James occasionally when he won't answer my tax text messages.
But in all reality is I've realized that I don't have to react to these people.
I don't care what they think.
You know, there are certain people that I care what they think, but not those people that want to ruin my day every day.
Well, here's the secret, Sean, and you know this, and that is that you do not resent them.
You don't let them get under your skin.
And but see, when with the average person does not know that they're under attack.
You see, you know that you're under attack.
You have a conscious awareness that they are trying to demoralize you.
And that's what they're trying to do to our nation, as we all know.
They're trying to demoralize us in every possible way.
And they will find your your vulnerability.
And and people have a number of vulnerabilities.
One of those is their children.
Look what they're doing on in in in the school system.
They're teaching your kids about drag green story hour.
Now the average parent says, that's insane.
That's evil.
But how many people actually stand up to it?
Well, when people get upset, guess what?
You become an inferior person when you're upset.
You you actually allow them to put their nonsense on you and in you, and then you walk around trying to figure out what happened to me.
And you know, there's a there's a famous saying from uh a far leftist uh from South Africa, his name is Steve Vico.
He said, The most potent weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the mind of the oppressed.
Well, here's abortion.
A woman, here's what they did in the abortion movement.
You're oppressed if you're forced to carry a baby.
So what do you do?
You abort the baby, end of oppression.
They take these psychological techniques, they put them in your mind, and then they make you believe that that's actually a solution when it's only the beginning of another set of problems, Sean.
All right, quick break.
We'll come back more with David Masters who was with us, how to escape the prison for your mind.
Uh we have a uh cop, if you want a copy, you can get one on Hannity.com, Amazon.com bookstores everywhere, as we continue.
All right, more with David Masters, his new book is How to Escape the Prison for Your Mind, how the war between good and evil is waged in the battlefield of the mind.
Anyway, it's up on Hannity.com if you want to get your copy.
I I think the lesson for most people is you've got to understand that at the end of the day you can't let other people impact your life, your feelings, and that you have to have a degree of self-control yourself, and that it is within us to control ourselves.
We do have the ability, we're not animals, right?
We have the ability to discern right from wrong.
We are aware that we exist, unlike the animal kingdom.
And at some point I think people have to learn, you you mentioned something earlier that I think is very pivotal.
You gotta learn to forgive other people.
You've got To not let them bother you.
Um and you also have to live in a position mentally, emotionally, and I learned a lot of this through my martial arts practice where you are focused, dialed in to the moment.
Right now, the only thing in my mind, David, is talking to you.
That is the only thing I'm thinking about.
I'm not thinking about TV tonight.
I'm not thinking about sweet baby James making weird faces at me.
I'm thinking about what what we're discussing here and listening to the words you're telling me, because they're I think they're pretty powerful.
Well, I tell you that um one of the things that I learned uh over many years, and I was I've been in the game that you're in.
I produced six of the top ten radio shows in the history of radio, not not yours, unfortunately, I wish I had, but um I was also under assault from the people that I was working from.
People that were very angry, people that were very manipulative, controlling.
Uh the only reason I survived a particular host who is was very popular at one time was because I didn't care either.
I didn't have to live with that person at the end of the day, I could go home and forget about everything that was put on me.
This person threatened to sue me every day, uh, that I tried to help him do a great show.
So, yes, if you learn how to control your reaction, which is really what this book is all about how to escape the prison of your mind.
Don't let people or don't let them invite you in to your own prison through a ridiculous and un and unnecessary emotional reaction.
And so what I've done with this book, Sean, is I put the complete Russian textbook on psychopolitic in here.
There's been a roadmap that existed since the nineteen twenties.
It's called brainwashing and synthesis of the Russian textbook on psychopolitics.
It's in my book with notes of examples of how they've done this to us.
By the way, I was glad you put that in there.
I've read that previously.
I read that years ago.
Yes.
And it's it's a roadmap how governments control people.
Exactly.
But here's the thing.
What I've also put on my website, which is Escape Your Minds Prison dot com, is there's a exercise, a concentration exercise that helps you to step back and learn to be objective, which is it puts a firewall between you and the insanity that's coming at you.
And that way you don't uh you don't agree with unconsciously with the the pressures that's coming at you.
And you don't you don't walk into your own prison, which is what people are doing.
And then when you're in that prison, if you don't know how to get out, then you look at the world and you say, Well, there's no hope, I might as well just end it anyway.
That's a pretty depressing thought, though.
But sadly, a lot of people I think are miserable just because of the way they think.
Well, and but why do they think the way they do?
Because they've allowed influences that you have not allowed, Sean Hannity.
You knew that if you started to allow those influences to penetrate you, that that would erode your s your self-confidence, and it would it would cripple you to keep you from telling people the truth that you tell them.
Do you realize how many people that you've affected in a positive way?
I listened to your show literally almost every day, and I hear people saying, Sean, when I started listening to you, I was a liberal.
But when I started thinking about the reason that you were laying out, the the logic that you bring to this program, you have liberated so many people, and but each one of us has the same potential to do that to others.
And that's why I wrote this book.
Well, the book is phenomenal.
Uh, it's up on Hannity.com.
Uh also David has his own website, it's how to escape the prison for your mind.
What's your website?
Escape your minds prison, pr plural, www.escapeyourminds prison dot com.
And there there's a concentration exercise that will immediately begin to relieve the stress because it's the struggle, it's the quicksand of the mind that you sink into when you struggle.
Once you stop struggling, your mind begins to release and you begin to be able to reason and see clearly and make choices the way Sean Hannity does.
Well, listen, through the grace of God, right?
I mean, it's it's kind of like, you know, this uh what I was raised Catholic, but I'm more of a non-denominational Christian at this point in my life.
But you know, they talk about praying on unceasingly.
And and if you keep your mind on more heavenly things, godly things, uh it's it's almost in and of itself you uh an impenetrable shield that you've created for yourself where you know what what other people are doing and saying can't impact you, affect you, change you, alter you, ruin your day, whatever it happens to be.
But anyway, it's a fascinating discussion, a great read.
Uh the synthesis of Russian mind control techniques are very, very interesting.
Uh, and I think you might recognize some of our own media in there as well uh and and things that are done and said and repeated and that people begin to believe.
Uh but David Masters appreciate you being with us.
Uh we have it up on Hannity.com and uh glad you could take the time to be with us.
Uh It was a great honor.
Thank you very much, Sean.
I appreciate it.
