	Biden wrote the devastating nineteen ninety-four crime bill talking about super predators that was biting.
	Like if we don't acknowledge uh that there are some things, some real pocketbook issues, uh, that are still uh front of mind for people.
	We missed the mark.

	Sean Kennedy is on.
	Stay right here for our final news roundup and information overload.
	All right, news roundup and information overload hour.
	Toll free, our number is 800-941 Sean.
	If you want to be a part of the program, if you've noticed, we've been doing a lot of segments on the follow-up as it relates to COVID nineteen and all of the lies that we have been told.
	You know, if you get the vaccine, you're you're never gonna get COVID.
	Lie.
	If you get the vaccine, you're never gonna infect others.
	Lie.
	I mean, all of these things.
	That the even though it was emergency authorization use, you know, what did we learn from the doctor that created the technology that actually allowed for the creation of these all new MRNA vaccinations, and that's Dr. Robert Malone who said that the technology will was never perfected.
	Well, we have a case uh ca out of Kansas, thankfully, uh thanks to Chris Kobach, the Kansas Attorney General who'll join us in a second about Pfizer and how they made multiple misleading statements to deceive the public about their vaccine at a time when Americans needed to know the truth, and he is now suing Pfizer for misleading the people of Kansas on the COVID vaccine.
	Now look what they did in Great Britain, AstraZeneca, their their version, I guess, of Pfizer and the Moderna shot, which was different than the Johnson and Johnson shot, which was one shot, not two, and and it was a vaccination made uh the more natural way.
	People began mocking it because it didn't have the new technology.
	Uh for those that took vaccinations, I guess in retrospect, maybe it wasn't so the dumb after all.
	Anyway, uh he said on Monday, Chris Kolbach did, announcing that he's suing Pfizer for what he said were misleading claims that it made related to the COVID nineteen vaccine.
	And he joins us now.
	Uh Mr. Attorney General, great to have you back.
	How are you?
	Great to be with you.
	Doing fine, Sean.
	Yeah, we filed a suit on Monday, uh under our Kansas Consumer Protection Act, uh, and are seeking civil monetary penalties, damages, and injunctive relief for the misleading statements that Pfizer made in marketing its vaccine.
	You know, the federal government gave the vaccine manufacturers immunity from tort lawsuits where somebody sues and says, you know, I was injured in some way and I want you know damages to compensate me.
	But they did not give them immunity for making deceptive claims to the public.
	And I think everybody remembers at the time the vaccines first came out.
	Everybody had to make a decision or two decisions.
	First, am I gonna take the vaccine?
	And second, which one am I gonna take?
	And in that kind of environment, especially with all of the anxiety and the duress with some employers forcing their employees to take vaccines.
	People needed information.
	And it was imperative that the information be truthful, and that was not the case as we lay out in our in our lawsuit.
	You know, I'll just bring you back in my own personal experience.
	The amount of pressure that was brought to bear on me to push my audience into taking a vaccination was it was inordinate.
	It was not something I had experienced before.
	I've experienced a lot of political pressure in my life.
	Uh the other thing was, you know, for me to give everybody my status.
	What is my status?
	Are you vaccinated or uh have you gotten COVID?
	Everybody wanted to know my personal business.
	I pr and by the way, Mr. Attorney General, I probably would have gladly shared it at the time.
	However, once they were demanding I share it, I was like, screw you, it's none of your business.
	I have my own personal you know, uh I I believe in I believe in medical privacy, with all due respect to all of you.
	And so I didn't tell anybody, but what I said to people on the air, and I'm I'm so glad that I didn't give in to their pressure, not that there was any threat that I would, but I said to people, I don't know anything about your health.
	I don't know anything if you have preexisting conditions.
	I don't know I have no idea if you have comorbidities.
	I have no idea.
	I'm not a doctor, I don't know anything about this this shot.
	I was not qualified to tell people what to do.
	I didn't know.
	But what you're telling me is they didn't know either, or they just flat out lied about it.
	What do you think it is?
	And what do they lie about?
	Well, it's pretty clear that they they did flat out lie about it, at least at Pfizer in in several respects.
	Uh they made misleading and deceptive statements.
	And you know, uh let me give you two examples.
	One is uh pregnant women.
	They marketed the vaccine as safe for for pregnant women.
	You know, that's an example of as you're describing, you know, each person needs to make a decision for themselves.
	But pregnant women needed to know that there was a risk uh for them.
	And uh Pfizer had two two studies.
	They also possessed information from their uh October 2020 pregnancy study on rats indicating that the COVID nineteen vaccine was linked to likely infertility, loss of litters and stillborn offspring.
	That should have been a major signal, forcing them to put the brakes on things.
	But they proceeded, and in February twenty twenty-one, Pfizer had reports for four hundred and fifty-eight pregnant women who received Pfizer's vaccine during pregnancy, and more than half of those women reported an adverse event, and more than ten percent reported a miscarriage, many within days of of vaccination.
	And what's Sean, let's just pause.
	A miscarriage means that a human being dies.
	A baby dies uh in the womb.
	That's extraordinary.
	And and over ten percent.
	Um for Pfizer to continue to market its vaccine as safe to pregnant women in light of that, and and with the knowledge of that, that's I just think that's you know, not only is it deceptive, it's it's just wrong and on multiple levels.
	And then the other case example we lay out in detail in our complaint is uh myocarditis.
	They Pfizer denied any evidence of a safety signal between its COVID nineteen vaccine and myocarditis, the safety signal is just a a risk signal.
	And uh the CEO in January of twenty twenty three was asked whether the vaccine it's uh uh Pfizer vaccine caused strokes from myocarditis, and he said, quote, we've not seen a single a single signal, although we have distributed billions of doses, end quote.
	But Pfizer knew, and the United States government knew, and the US military knew, and others had found that the Pfizer vaccine caused uh was linked to myocarditis and pericarditis.
	So these statements myocarditis, and I can't tell you how many doctors I've spoken to that say post COVID that the incidence, especially among young athletes, believe it or not, young people is so much higher than they ever have seen before.
	And the other issue I keep hearing a lot about is blood clotting.
	Is that is that what you're learning as well?
	You know, we don't make specific uh allegations about blood clotting outside of the myocarditis and pericarditis uh context.
	And they may involve clotting.
	I'm not not a medical doctor, so I'm not sure.
	But you know, I I have a friend, Sean, who took uh the Pfizer vaccine, and shortly after he took the vaccine, he had um heart conditions that he never had before, had to have two surgeries, and he also suffered a stroke.
	And his doctor said it's the vaccine.
	There's no other explanation.
	I mean, you know, people had anecdotal information like that, but you know, this lawsuit is is just about what Pfizer knew and what they said.
	And Pfizer knew certain things, and those things contradicted what they were saying to the public.
	Did Moderna treat this differently?
	Because I find it interesting that you're suing Pfizer, but not Moderna.
	You know, we uh we have the information with respect to Pfizer.
	There's one other difference regarding Pfizer.
	So Pfizer did not accept the Operation Warp Speed Money from the federal government, and as a result, they were not subject to all of the same reporting requirements that uh recipients of the Operation Warp Speed Money were.
	They they made a decision not to take that money in order to free themselves of certain obligations.
	And uh I have a quote here from the uh CEO of Pfizer.
	He said, they want reports, I don't want to have any of that.
	End quote.
	And that's referring to the federal government wanting reports.
	So I think that may be one of the important distinctions between the vaccine manufacturers uh that's relevant here.
	What do you make of AstraZeneca taking their shot off the market?
	And that was used more widely in in Great Britain and elsewhere.
	You know, I don't have uh enough evidence to say you know people are listening to my comments very carefully because we're in litigation, so I I don't have enough information about AstraZeneca to speculate about why they took it off the market.
	But uh, you know, focusing on Pfizer, we have clear evidence here that they were making statements to the public in advertisement.
	You just can't do it.
	I mean, you know, think about it, Sean.
	You're on your show.
	You know, but in the advertisements, there may be some pharmaceuticals that are advertised, and we all know that in that ad they point out all of the potential uh side effects or issues that can result if you take that pharmaceutical.
	That's part of what we're accustomed to in America.
	But here, Pfizer not only didn't tell us about it, they said the opposite.
	They said there is no connection.
	And so it's you know, it's behavior like that that the triggers a consumer protection act violation.
	And and I should note that although Kansas is the lead state here, they're we're part of a coalition of a growing coalition of half a dozen states now who are you know standing together and they're either going to be bringing their suits in their respective states or um they will be taking steps toward doing so depending on what Pfizer does.
	I'm just trying to anticipate what their main argument will be.
	Are they gonna say, well, all of this was done under the guise of emergency authorization uh that allowed them to bypass the usual the usual process to getting a vaccination uh to get legal uh uh vaccination or FDA uh approval?
	You know, I'm I'm waiting with baited breath too, Sean, to see what they're gonna say.
	Because I just you know the the public statements that they've made since we filed the suit have simply been rather general, you know, the vaccine saved lives, and uh we made accurate statements.
	Um we'll see when when push comes to shove when when they are forced to explain exactly what they said and why they said it and what they were aware of.
	How soon will these people be deposed?
	Yeah, that's what I was going to next.
	There'll be depositions and there will be um uh discovery where they have to provide documents in addition to what we already have from various lawyer requests.
	Um the schedule will be set by the judge, and he has not yet laid out a schedule for you know what the uh stages of discovery will be, including depositions.
	All right, quick break, we'll come back.
	More with Kansas Attorney General Chris Kobach on the other side.
	Then your calls coming up, 800, 941 Sean, as we continue.
	Hey there.
	I'm Mary Catherine Hammond, and I'm Carol Markowitz.
	We've been in political media for a long time.
	Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane.
	That's why we started normally a podcast for people who are over the hysteria and just want clarity.
	We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor.
	We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously.
	So if you're into common sense, sanity, and some occasional sass, you're our kind of people.
	Catch new episodes of Normally every Tuesday and Thursday on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen.
	Hey there.
	I'm Mary Catherine Hamm.
	And I'm Carol Markowitz.
	We've been in political media for a long time.
	Long enough to know that it's gotten, well, a little insane.
	That's why we started normally a podcast for people who are over the hysteria and just want clarity.
	We talk about the issues that actually matter to the country.
	Without panic, without yelling, and with a healthy dose of humor.
	We don't take ourselves too seriously, but we do take the truth seriously.
	So if you're into common sense, sanity, and some occasional sas.
	You're our kind of people.
	Catch new episodes of Normally every Tuesday and Thursday on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen.
	All right, we continue now with Chris Kobach.
	He's the attorney general of the great state of Kansas, and he's now suing Pfizer over the COVID vaccination that they gave out.
	I think this is very key.
	And one of the things that's been really alarming, and we've had a lot of people, I don't know if you know Dr. Quay, he testified before Congress this week about the origins of COVID.
	I don't know if you've had a chance to read Rand Paul's book, Deception.
	I mean, you've got emails going back and forth, and it was very obvious that people at the NIH in the earliest days of COVID knew and understood that the that NA NIH money going through and funneled through the Eco Health Alliance was going to the Wuhan Virology Lab where they knew coronavirus research took place and they knew gain of function research took place and they were panicked for almost from day one that the American taxpayers actually
	funded the creation of this virus, which turns out to look pretty true to me at this point, and and yet people have not been held accountable for that either.
	Yeah, it's it's interesting how long, you know, here we are in the middle of 2024, and we're looking back and finally this information is coming out.
	I I think we're gonna continue looking back in these lawsuits, and as more people testify in front of Congress or or in other ways, you know, disclose information.
	You know, the decisions Americans were presented in the manner in which, you know, certainly Pfizer presented them, but you know, looking at what the government did, you know, forcing you know, one of the things that I I think was the worst in terms of government actions, Sean, was the uh military uh vaccine mandate.
	They were I represented some pilots at the time uh who wanted to avoid the vaccine on religious grounds, and the Department of Defense was proceeding to fire them at a time when the the Air Force had a shortage of over fifteen hundred pilots.
	They're firing pilots over this.
	It's just unreal, the kind of decision making that was occurring uh during this uh this period.
	No, you you you really can't make up how bad it was.
	Uh you know, back to the pressure that I felt.
	I mean, could you imagine I'm a I'm a radio and television talk show host.
	Now I try to be as informed as possible.
	You've known me for a long time, and we've known each other for a long time, and I I do a lot of reading and a lot of research, but I'm not equipped to give my audience advice, medical advice on something as serious as a as to taking a vaccine or not taking a vaccine.
	It's just not my role.
	Now, I think I gave good advice telling people to take it seriously.
	I think I gave good advice telling people to to talk to their doctor and to do their own research.
	I think I I gave people good advice to that they have to look at their own specific medical history and and pre-existing conditions and comorbidities, and they've got to look at their age and and then it's a decision that only they and the doctor can make.
	It's not a decision that a radio talk show and a TV talk show host can make.
	Well, I think that's exactly right.
	And and the key word in my mind that you just said was do your own research.
	And that's where this lawsuit comes into play.
	Well, how are you going to do research if the company is making statements that are contrary to the research the company has but you don't have?
	And it should be noted that many of the studies and facts presented in this lawsuit only came out because of a FOIA, Freedom of Information Act request.
	And that request was resisted.
	And finally, the information came out.
	So that's why this lawsuit didn't happen last year or the year before.
	This only happens after we get the information that has been very hard to get.
	All right, Kansas Attorney General Chris Kobach will follow this suit very, very closely.
	We appreciate your time.
	My pleasure.
	800-941-SHAWN if you want to be a part of the program.
	All right, 25 to the top of the hour.
	800-941-SHAWN is our number if you want to be a part of the program.
	Well, the Cuckoo Brigade, the Conspiracy Theory Brigade is out.
	out in in full force.
	Uh this all started when you had conspiracy theorist extraordinaire, Rachel Maddow thinking that if Donald Trump is elected, he will be putting her in a camp.
	I didn't get any clarification on is it a day camp?
	Is it a sleepaway camp?
	You know, obviously that's not what she's referring to, but you get my point.
	You know, followed up Chrissy Teagan, Trump will come after her, followed by AOC thinking that she's gonna be thrown in jail, uh, followed up by Joyless Behar and and Rachel Maddow, you know, talking uh in depth about this, thinking that, you know, shows like the hard hitting news show The View will be taken off the air.
	Now Nicole Wallace has joined the brigade suggesting that if Trump wins reelection, she'll be taken off the air.
	Listen to her.
	I've seen that toast a bunch of times.
	But it landed very differently this year.
	Because depending on what happens in November, seven months from right now, this time next year.
	I might not be sitting here.
	I might not be a White House correspondence dinner or a free press.
	Okay.
	So, Nicole, you're still gonna be on the air if you want to be on the air, and your employer wants to keep you on the air.
	I can promise you that.
	Number one.
	Uh, but here's all the the mob media democrats worried that Donald Trump is either gonna throw them in jail or put them in a camp.
	Listen.
	You said recently that you thought that you, as an outspoken critic, could be a target yourself.
	Some people think that sounds over dramatic, but I'm right there with you.
	I think that he is so um benedicted that he will go after however he has to do the IRS, maybe, or even some you know, uh his sponsors to get us off the air, maybe.
	I think it's bad to have somebody saying, Give me as much power as you can in this country so I can use it to go after other Americans.
	And I don't think anybody's safe if that's the sort of basis on which he wants to get if Donald Trump wins, we are looking at the potential dissolution of democracy in the United States of America.
	It sounds nuts, but like I wouldn't be surprised if this guy threw me in jail.
	It sounds nuts.
	That's the only thing she said in that statement that was true.
	Uh, you have the co-founder of LinkedIn, uh guy by the name name of Reed Hoffman, I don't even know who he is, saying he's worried that Trump will retaliate against him.
	I don't even think Trump knows half these people.
	I'll ask him, but I don't think he knows half these people.
	Listen.
	I literally talked to business leaders who are who are fearful about speaking out against this because they're fearful of retaliation.
	Are you concerned that Trump could retaliate against you?
	Of course I'm concerned.
	Of course I'm concerned.
	What do you think he's gonna do to the co-founder of LinkedIn?
	I don't think he's gonna do anything.
	I don't think he even knows who he is.
	But I guess this is now, you know, the fear tactic.
	You know what this is?
	A cheap fake paranoia, feigned phony outrage, and it's just a way to scare people that Donald Trump is this scary, scary figure, etc.
	etc.
	Maybe what they really do fear is because they they all have one thing in common.
	They have support the supported the weaponization of our justice system, and their silence has been deafening.
	They're part of the group that had no problem with that sham trial in New York, no problem with a valuation of Mar-a-Lago at eighteen million.
	Uh no problem that Steve Bannon and and Peter Navarro, unlike so many others held in contempt of Congress are are going to jail, Peter Navarro in jail.
	Maybe it's maybe it's maybe it all related to that.
	I don't know.
	All right, we're gonna get to your calls in a minute here.
	Look, if you own a gun, you believe in the second amendment.
	That's not enough in today's America.
	It is essential you be insured, trained, educated.
	As a USCCA member, you can defend you yourself and your family against people that want to bring you and your family harm, and also protect yourself against the legal system that maybe doesn't protect the rights of gun owners.
	You might want to you may now want to end up like a guy like Craig, who's Craig.
	He's an American veteran, No criminal history.
	Returned home.
	He finds an intruder wearing a mask and gloves in his own house.
	Anyway, the criminal ignores Craig's yells to leave and reaches into his pocket.
	Craig shoots, calls 911, law enforcement, label it a justified homicide, but they charge him anyway because the gun he wasn't registered with the government.
	And because he's not a USCCA member, he's gonna spend a fortune to get a lawyer and you know that's even willing to take the case and then hope and pray that he doesn't go to prison for defending himself on his own property.
	Now I share this story with you because the truth is that simply owning a gun for family protection can get you in trouble in our new America.
	Now I've been a proud member of the USCCA for nine years because they have the best training, best safety training, best education, best access to insurance made specifically for self defense incidents, and you get all of that for less than a dollar a day.
	Now go to their website, DefendFamily.com.
	Right now you can learn more about USCCA and their membership.
	You'll get entered to win a gun of your choice and a hundred up to a hundred and fifty five dollars worth of free bonuses.
	But if you believe in the second amendment, please you gotta go to DefendFamily dot com today.
	All right, let's get to our busy phones.
	Ben is in New York.
	Ben, how are you?
	Glad you called, sir.
	Hey, Sean, thank you for taking my call.
	Shout out from Long Island.
	Where in Long Island you're from.
	My old stomping ground, where I was born and raised.
	What's going on?
	That's right.
	Valley Stream, Valley Stream.
	Well, first of all, by the way, you know, you were raised in Valley Stream?
	Yep.
	Do you remember the old Carl Hoffels?
	No.
	Okay.
	How old are you?
	Fifty.
	Yeah, it might be mighty better been a little before your time.
	Because my dad was a waiter at Carl Hoffels and Baldwin.
	But I grew up in Franklin Square, right next door to you.
	Very close.
	Right.
	Anyway, what's on your mind today?
	Well, you know, like most Americans, you're watching the uh, you know, watch the trial in New York, the Sham trial, as you call it.
	And we know that the gag order hasn't been lifted.
	And it's it's it's very strange.
	And I have a theory on it, and I'm wondering what you think about it.
	You know, the debate is next week.
	And I think they're trying to box Trump in.
	And what's gonna happen if they bring up the trial and the president cannot respond to anything because he's under a gag order.
	What do you think's gonna happen?
	I think he's not gonna respond to it because I think he's been pretty smart in not responding to it, knowing that this judge is crazy enough to want to put him in jail.
	I think that uh but but I think there are other ways around it.
	I don't think it's insurmountable.
	I mean, Joe Biden is gonna want to call him a convicted felon as many times as he can.
	And and I have a good answer for it.
	And it's frankly, Joe, be careful.
	Now that we know the laptop is real, remember your son implicates you as benefiting financially from all of his foreign business deals uh at times when you are the vice president taking actions to help his business companies, and uh you might want to be careful about this convicted felon mantra of yours because if there is equal justice under the law, uh there seems to be a prima facie case against you.
	That's what I would say.
	Uh you know what I think I think he should just speak up and say whatever he wants to say, and let you know, let the judge do what he wants to do.
	But he needs to, you know, I know it's listen, the judge may end up, you know, sentencing him to jail anyway.
	The judge, I think, is just chomping at the bit to put him in a jail cell.
	And if they do, I think the country will see it for what it is.
	Um I'm not worried about it.
	I don't want that for our country.
	I don't want that for the president.
	However, I think at the end of the day, they're gonna have a very hard time for a first defender with multiple appeals.
	Now, I think at the in my guess is he's gonna be sentenced to jail with pending appeal.
	That's my guess.
	First time offender, he's not a flight risk with the Secret Service around him at all times.
	He is a person, you know, for again, we're talking about a classy felony, it's not even a major felony.
	And I just I I uh but but again, you have an abusively biased judge in this case.
	And a judge that I think is chomping at the bit to be loved in New York social circles.
	And by the way, he will be.
	And so will Alvin Bragg.
	They're gonna be loved in New York social circles.
	Listen, new New York for me became almost inhabitable, especially New York City.
	Not Long Island where I lived where people knew me and and people are always really nice to me.
	They were great.
	Um however, uh it just it it just got to the point, it just wasn't worth it for me anymore.
	And that's one of the reasons.
	I mean, when yet when you're in New York City and I have to think twice, three, four, five times about what restaurant I can go to with my staff or with friends, uh it's I it's not the place for me.
	And I don't have that experience down in Florida.
	It's very different.
	And you look, I it's not like I was so married to New York anyway, because I I lived in Rhode Island five years, California five years, Alabama two years, Georgia four years.
	Um, and I've always I've had a home in Florida for close to thirty years I've had a place.
	So for me it was a natural transition.
	Anyway, um I think yeah, I think I think Trump will abide by the gag order.
	I think it's unconstitutional, but I think he'll abide by it.
	And I think there's a number of ways around it for him.
	Anyway, I appreciate the call.
	800-941 Sean is on number if you want to be a part of the program.
	Gary is in New Joyce.
	What's up, Gary in New Joycey?
	What's going on to the joyzy shore?
	Hey, um, I was listening to you.
	How are you doing, Sean?
	I'm good, man.
	How are you?
	Good.
	I was listening to you yesterday with uh Bill talking about uh terrorism.
	That that's been going on here for three years now, you know.
	With the uh fentanyl and everything coming across the border.
	Um killed my son.
	You lost your son to fentanyl?
	Yep.
	How old was your son?
	Thirty-five.
	Stop to talk.
	Oh man.
	Yeah.
	Uh uh Gary, Gary, you don't you don't have to apologize for being upset over losing your son.
	Uh I know I speak for everybody here in your voice right now.
	Our prayers are deepest condolences to you and your family.
	I can't imagine the pain you live through.
	Yeah, but uh was it an overdose?
	Was it just uh I guess something mixed mixed into something.
	Nice exactly, but yeah, it was the fentanyl.
	Yeah, it's in everything now.
	By the way, they're putting fentanyl in weed now.
	Did you know that?
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	And these kids are dying.
	We're losing a generation of kids, opioids and fentanyl.
	You know, that this is all being manufactured in China, and our wide open borders are allowing all of it in, and we're losing people like your son, you know, hundreds and hundreds every week, and they don't do a thing to stop it.
	And as far as I'm concerned, the government has blood on their hands.
	Yeah, Joe Biden.
	Yeah.
	How long ago did this happen?
	Um a year and almost a year and a half.
	It was St. Paddy's Day.
	Ugh Let me guess, you you've never been the same, and you probably will never be the same again.
	Yeah, I got it.
	I got it.
	I I understand.
	You lose your breath.
	Of course you do.
	It takes your breath away.
	I get it.
	I really do.
	I I I've I've i I've had friends that have experienced the exact same thing.
	You know, one thing of a dear friend of mine, I'll do the talking through you.
	A dear friend of mine that lost their son, like you did, a little younger than your son, to fentanyl.
	He said, and he goes around the country and he gives talks.
	He doesn't care if the crowds ten people or a hundred people or a thousand people.
	And he says the same thing.
	If you are foolish enough to think this cannot happen to you, you are dead wrong.
	I will tell you, every article I read every day, every day I run across these articles.
	I copy, I paste it, I text it to my kids.
	I'm like, guys, pay attention to this.
	And you know, I'm sure they're probably at some point rolling their eyes, but by now they've got the message from their dad.
	This is real and it's dangerous, and it's everywhere.
	And they're targeting our children.
	They're targeting them.
	You know, if a a couple of uh what is the equivalent of a grain of salt or two grains of salt can take out a two hundred and fifty pound man and not I mean kill them.
	I mean, that's how insidious this is, and they put it in they put they mix it into pretty much everything.
	Anyway, I'm really sorry, Gary.
	I really um please know our our love and our prayers with you and your family and and the only hope I have, and uh it's not cliche to me because I believe it with all My heart.
	I do believe that there is a heaven and a God.
	And you know, when I say let not your heart be troubled, the rest of that verse goes on, you know, um, that Jesus talks about let not your heart be troubled in my father's house of many mansions, and I go to prepare a place for you.
	So that where I am, you shall also be.
	And I just believe you'll be re reunited with your son one day.
	I believe that with all my heart.
	And um, in the meantime, it doesn't take your pain away, but just know that there are a lot of people that that understand the pain you and your family have been through.
	It's terrible.
	And it needs to stop, and we have the ability to stop it, and we're not doing it.
	This can all be prevented.
	All of it.
	Secure the damn border and prevent this poison from coming into our country.
	Yeah, I don't think we have to worry about any terrorism happening here because any bullets being shot because it's all being done by the sentinel, you know.
	I never thought about that before.
	Isn't that a form of an attack on our country?
	Yeah.
	Flooding our country with poison like that.
	And and and Biden should be brought up on treason.
	Yes, me.
	They're not safe.
	They're not.
	Nope.
	Nope.
	And Joe this week, the border's secure.
	I secured it myself.
	I'm like, okay.
	God bless you, my friend, and I mean that.
