When I told people, I was making a podcast about Benghazi.
Nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked why.
Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies.
From Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries, this is Fiasco Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?

And it is 800-941 Sean if you want to join us.
Apparently, a new COVID strain from China has hit the U.S. Some experts are calling for face masks and social distancing and shots to return.
No, thank you.
Uh, we'll check in with Dr. Brian Tyson, people that we trusted during COVID after we learned so much about what we were lied to.
Uh, and by the way, my understanding is, and I'll double check with him, uh, that this is a hospitalizations are up.
And then I look, and it's like 30 hospitalizations in like Hong Kong or China, not even a big number.
Uh, anyway, we'll hit that today.
Also, in the course of the program, Senator Tom Cotton will get an update on the one big beautiful bill in the Senate.
We'll get an update on on a lot of issues that Democrats are absolutely losing it.
I've got to give credit to Chairman Jim Comer, and he is now demanding an investigation.
That key ex-presidential aides now must go before Congress and testify about the Biden dementia, cognitive decline, whatever you prefer to call it, cover up.
And James Comer's demanding several high-ranking staffers in Biden's White House appear for transcribed interviews on their suspected roles working behind the scenes to cover up the former president's significant mental decline during his term.
Now he sent interview requests to four key Biden White House aides.
I'm sure there'll be more to follow.
Former director of domestic policy, Nera Tandon, former assistant to the president and deputy chief of staff, Annie Tom, what is it, Tomasini, and also former senior advisor to the first lady, Anthony Burnell, and former deputy director for the Oval Office operations, Ashley Williams.
Now, notice, you know, now also this chairman has requested a transcribed interview with Biden's doctor, Kevin O'Connor, and he said that these unelected bureaucrats had an overwhelming influence over over Joe Biden and possibly serving as the de facto president.
And uh this has only got to be the beginning.
Because evidence is mounting, and this was a Fox News.com piece today.
A pro energy group is calling for an investigation into a half a dozen significant Biden administration executive actions related to climate that they believe should be deemed null and void due to being signed by an autopen.
Power the future, a nonprofit organization advocating for American energy jobs, said it found no evidence of the president speaking about any of the orders publicly raising concerns that the orders were signed by autopen and that Biden was not aware of them.
In the letter to the House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, the group contends in light of the growing evidence that actions purportedly taken by the former president may not have been approved or signed by him, but instead promulgated by a small cotterey of advisors in his name without his knowledge or his signature using an autopen.
Well, the need for congressional access to the information has grown in importance with these revelations.
The executive orders referred to the power referred by power of the future include Arctic drilling ban in 2023, a 2021 executive order committing the federal government to a net zero emissions by 2050, an executive order mandating clean energy, AI centers, offshore drilling ban, etc.
Power of the future.
How would we know?
And this is the thing.
This Biden, you know, aid admitting the staff acted undemocratically because they viewed Trump was an existential threat, and then even going as far as, you know, saying, well, Biden just would have to win and he could disappear for four years and he'd only have to show proof of life every once in a while.
Oh, that's a great way to run the presidency.
Basically admitting that others would be in charge of the of the presidency and lying to the American people and covering it all up.
You know, you have political out there floating a list of Democratic shadow cabinet members, you know, political celebrities to combat Trump.
It's like an Orwellian nightmare that they're talking about here.
You know, uh Tim Walls calls for a shadow government to counter the Trump administration.
It's it's pretty unbelievable.
And these are the people that were claiming democracy is in peril.
Democracy is a merit, but democracy was in peril, all right, by them.
And uh Patty, oh, I see Broadway star Patty Lapuna Boltone, is that her name?
I don't even know.
I don't ever go to Broadway.
I wouldn't know.
He said that the Kennedy centers should get blown up.
Really?
Everyone should condemn these radicals, Rick Rennell said of these remarks.
I mean, isn't that a threat?
I think an awful lot about blowing up the White House by just going back to where we were in 2017.
Political publishing this fantasy shadow cabinet.
Let's see, Giselle Fetterman, John Stewart, Bill Nye, the science guy, or Letitia James, Nikki Glazer, John Stewart.
Now, AOC is doubled down on the political asinine position of abolishing ice and that bandwagon, even as other Democrats are saying, maybe we shouldn't we shouldn't say the stuff we really believe out loud.
I mean, you got to give AOC some credit.
She's at least being honest, but she is doubling down on a losing proposition, but that's not unlike the Democrats doubling down on protecting men's rights to play women's sports and and and going to bat for illegal immigrants.
It didn't respect our laws, borders, and sovereignty, even Trend Aragua and MS 13 gang members.
I mean, the stunt that was was done by Senator Van Holland is insane.
Now Chucky Schumer is going to spend the week away from D.C. campaigning against the Republicans' big beautiful bill, one big beautiful bill, which I'm fine with.
Because instead of supporting the largest tax cut in American history, he will be fighting against it.
Instead of fighting for a bill that eliminates tax on tip, social security and overtime, he's going to be fighting that.
Instead of providing the monies necessary to secure our border, he will be against that, as will every other Democrat.
You know, instead of helping finance the deportation of illegal immigrants, they will be fighting for illegals to stay in this country, even in illegals that committed crimes.
And if he wants to fight against American energy dominance and he wants to fight against the next generation of weaponry and make us a vulnerable nation like Joe Biden did, let them do that.
Liberals blame the big, beautiful bill loss on dying Democrats.
Imagine if they retired instead of dying in office.
Anyway, facing yet another loss after the one big beautiful bill advanced in in the House, liberals are lashing out at Democratic Party elders for clinging on to power for too long.
Now you've got this intramural, you know, political civil war in the party.
I mean, we saw that emerge with David Hogg starting, you know, he's he's planning to raise millions of dollars to challenge incumbent Democrats.
Have one Democratic congressman spending Memorial Day trying to visit a deported illegal alien with MS 13 ties.
You know, one thing, a growing number of Democrats are arguing that members of their party need to reconsider their use of certain left-wing terms and phrases.
Now remember, this is the party that's spent is spending 20 million dollars on trying to figure out how to talk to young men.
Hey, bro, want to get a Brewski?
Hey, Charlie, what you doing, bud?
Want to go for uh want to go hit the old bars today?
Uh hey, have you caught the latest game on Sunday?
Did you see you see Joe uh so-and-so cross the plane?
I mean, it's like talking to Linda about football.
It's so st it's so stupid.
How about you be real instead of you know manufactured and poll testing how to talk to men?
How about you just be yourself, Wasserman Schultz rejecting a New York Times report on voters seeing Democrats as slow and passive?
No, they're seeing them as insanely woke, dumb, and failures.
They had an opportunity and they did nothing with it.
They allowed they made this country, they created their biggest national security threat that was preventable in our history.
They did nothing to stop transitory inflation.
They did nothing to stop the war in Europe.
They didn't even attempt to.
All they did was take our money and fight a proxy war against Russia.
Trump is trying to clean up that mess.
And it's pretty unbelievable.
Then you got Kamala Harris, you know, warning people to remember history, warning of the current, you know, parallels with the 1930s.
They they cannot help themselves.
Anyway, the idea, though, that Republicans are readying subpoenas in terms of Joe Biden's cognitive decline is critical.
You know, Laura Trump was on with uh Laura Ingram last night, actually made a good point.
And she said the damage, yeah, okay, so I I I guess what's his name?
Uh fake Jake called Laura Trump about two months ago.
And he said, I have this book coming out.
I know everyone's saying that I should apologize to you.
Well, why don't you say you should apologize to her?
And I plan whenever the book comes out to go on TV, and I will say you were right and I was wrong.
Why don't you apologize?
Like she said, well, I guess, you know, to Jake's credit, he did that, but the overarching thing in this case is the damage is done.
We were so close to something so dangerous happening to our country.
Look at the millions of illegal immigrants in this country.
We don't know who was president the last four years.
We don't know that Joe Biden actually signed the executive orders that they claim that he signed.
They can't say that with any certainty.
And, you know, we're gonna start talking about, you know, some of the details here, but none of this is any good.
And Jake Tapper admitting, well, Democrats cover up may be worse than Watergate.
You think?
Well, why didn't they cover it at the time?
Why is that possible?
We had an FBI director calling the GOP white supremacist adjacent, and then when given an opportunity to clean that up, we'll play it later.
You know, he didn't take advantage of it.
I mean, how scary is that?
Then you wonder why moms and dads at school board meetings were harassed to the extent that they were.
It's pretty incredible when you think about it.
Um, we do have some uh economic news to share with you today.
We got a lot of Trump news to get to in the course of the program today.
Now, House Democrats have already drawn up impeachment articles against Donald Trump.
Now, when we start getting closer to the 2026 midterms, I'm just gonna warn you, all of Donald Trump's great progress will come to a screeching halt, and all you'll see and all you'll hear is impeachment, impeachment, impeachment, impeachment.
And waiting in the wings are two sets of impeachment articles, though, an effort to force a vote this month lacked to support of the Democratic leadership.
Democrats have sent letters to various federal agencies, have held those series of shadow hearings, Democrats have alleged a broad set of conflicts of interest on Donald Trump's hundredth day in office.
Congressman Jerry Connolly, Previously the ranking member of the House Oversight Committee.
By the way, you do know Jasmine Crockett would be the head of the oversight committee if Democrats got power.
Anyway, released a list of a hundred involving the President Trump.
You know, it's funny.
They they keep going back to this issue of this plane gifted to our defense department.
Do you really how come not one Democrat ever commented on the eight billion dollars that Qatar actually spent on the lar our largest military base in the Middle East in their country?
$8 billion.
And they want it there, and they're glad it's there, and they're investing in it being there, and they need our technology and they need our weaponry, and we sell it to them, but we don't charge them the cost of what it took to build it.
And frankly, I'm just, I have a hard time understanding.
Now, you if you want to question whether or not a lot of these countries have played both sides, that's a fair argument.
If you want to, if you're telling me if they have turned a blind eye towards extremism, we already know the answer to that question.
And am I saying that all of that needs to be challenged and changed?
Absolutely.
So I think the president did it, but he said sign the Abraham Accords in both Qatar and Riyadh and also in the UAE.
Yeah, I think the president's laying the foundation.
Once the Iranian situation is resolved, I'm telling you, that's probably going to be next on the list.
If Democrats win the House, I'm just warning you in 2026.
Jasmine Crockett could be the chair of the House Oversight Committee.
By the way, the Trump budget, thank God, cuts uh uh cuts to the UN is now forced layoffs at the U.N. 225 jobs due to cutbacks and U.S. funding.
Why are we funding all these globalist organizations?
The WEF, uh, the WHO, which we're not funding anymore, Paris Climate Accords.
How many times are we going to be suckered nations?
It's gotta stop.
All right, Donald Trump taking on the radical left and their federal funding for uh schools, especially Harvard.
We're gonna go through the numbers when we get back.
Also, the president threatened to cut off California from federal funding because the Golden State refuses to reverse course on allowing transgender athletes to compete in women's sports, and Trump warning that he will order local authorities, if necessary, to not allow a transgender athlete to compete in the state finals this weekend, and that threat comes ahead of a planned phone call with Gavin Newsom.
Apparently, Gavin Newsom has given in to that threat.
And uh, but we'll we'll update you throughout the day.
But California, the leadership of radical left Democrat Gavin Newsom continues to illegally allow men to play in women's sports.
It's not fair, totally demeaning to women and to girls.
But they are but the Democratic Party is now the champion of this.
They had an opportunity in the U.S. Senate to champion the rights of women's sports, and that means the rights that you know not to have to compete against men, biological men.
And anyway, this this all came about because of this A.B. Hernandez, who was born a male, became a transgender woman.
Hernandez recently won the women's long jump and triple jump during a state interscholastic federation uh Southern Section Masters meet, and Hernandez had previously won a triple jump contest by roughly three feet in March and is slated to compete in the CIF champion state championship in Fresno Friday and Saturday.
Uh that shouldn't happen.
We'll tell you about Harvard when we get back.
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.

So Dell a verdict with Ted Cruz now, wherever you get your podcasts.
What I told people, I was making a podcast about Benghazi.
Nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked why.
It's almost a dirty word.
One that connotes conspiracy theory.
Will we ever get the truth about the Benghazi massacre?
Bad faith, political warfare, and frankly, bullshit.
We kill the ambassador just to cover something up.
You put two and two together.
Was it an overblown distraction or a sinister conspiracy?
Benghazi is a Rosetta Stone for everything that's been going on for the last 20 years.
I'm Leon Nafok from Prologue Projects and Pushkin Industries.
This is Fiasco Benghazi.
What difference at this point does it make?
Yeah, that's right.
Locker up.
Listen to Fiasco Benghazi on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
We'll get to your calls today.
It's 800, 941 Sean.
If you want to be a part of the program, uh look, you can't celebrate Independence Day, the birth of our nation, the greatest country God gave man without an American flag.
And please don't get one made in China.
Not exactly.
It's not exactly in the spirit of Independence Day in my view.
But anyway, you can celebrate it with an American flag made right here in America.
I'm talking about allegiance flag supply, a hundred percent made in America.
It is made of the highest quality, it's the highest quality American flag.
They're hand sewn in Charleston, South Carolina, and it is the most patriotic thing you can do, Independence Day, frankly, all year long, and you'll be supporting hardworking Americans by perching and a le purchasing an allegiance flag and then fly it that flag with pride.
I'm flying my flag right now with pride.
And sweet baby James, I had him put it in the right place.
He hung it in the wrong spot uh the first time where nobody could see it.
Anyway, if you go to Allegianceflag.com, use the promo code Hannity, you'll get free shipping.
You'll have it in time for the Fourth of July.
Just go to their website, it's show allegiance, one word, showAlegiance.com, promo code Hannity, get your allegiance flag in time for the Fourth of July.
Allegiance flags for great Americans, American flags made the American way.
Allegiance Flag.com.
Um, a couple of things I want to update you first before I get to the issue of habit.
Um, the president said today that it will soon be apparent whether or not Vladimir Putin is, you know, just tapping us along in negotiations and ending war in Europe and war with Ukraine.
And after swearing in our friend and my former colleague, Janine Piero as the interim U.S. attorney for DC.
Trump fielded questions from reporters when asked if he thinks that Putin wants to actually bring the conflict to a close.
He said it will be apparent within two weeks.
If he's serious, I can't tell you that, but I'll let you know in about two weeks, within two weeks, we're gonna find out very soon, and we're gonna find out whether or not he's tapping us along or not.
And if he is, we'll respond differently.
He was also asked about his truth social post, in which he said Putin is playing with fire and what potential consequences Russia could face.
Yeah, he said, Well, I'm not gonna tell you exactly.
But the words speak pretty loud, and we're not happy about the situation.
And before highlighting other key foreign policy negotiations with the Middle East, Steve Whitkoff.
Now, I I have gone deep into sources all throughout the Senate, the House, the administration, and this is what I'm hearing.
And I heard it when I was in the Middle East with the president.
Iran has two choices.
Choice number one is if they continue to be hell bent on enriching in the enrichment of Uranium that will result in the U.S. andor the U.S. and Israel taking out the nuclear sites.
He can't be any more clear in his language.
I heard him say it at least five times when I was with him in the Middle East.
He said it repeatedly, or they can choose the peaceful option.
Now, if they want, for example, the UAE has nuclear power, but the nuclear rods for nuclear power, which cannot be enriched, uh come from outside of the country.
And that probably that would be part of the deal.
But what is off the table, and it's been very clear, is that the enrichment of uranium in Iran for any reason has to come to an end.
And they would have to import if they want a nuclear program for power, that those rods would have to come from outside the country, that they can't have their own enrichment facilities.
Now, part two of the equation would be anywhere, any place, any time inspections, and I'm not talking about UN inspectors or IAEA inspectors or inspectors from countries that are not going to be diligent.
I mean, they can be a part of it, but we need American inspectors, and that means anywhere, any place, any time inspections to make sure that they're not cheating, because they're prone to cheat.
And so we'll we'll see what happens.
But anyway, we're watching, you know, the slaughter.
Look, Vladimir Putin in his case, everybody knows he's a murdering dictator thug.
Anyone that tells you otherwise, you know, is just flat out wrong.
Um, but we also need to remember Crimea was annexed under Obama and Biden in 2014.
Crimea is not going to be on the table for Ukraine.
I don't think they expect it to be on the table.
The Donbass region, which has been in contention and part of the territorial ambitions of Putin, you know, that that's 80% Russian national.
That's probably gone too.
And maybe maybe other parts.
However, you know, the only, and this is when President Trump said you don't have any cards to play.
Europe has not shown a willingness to step up and protect Ukraine and provide the weaponry that they would need to actually win this war.
Now they have fought valiantly, they have fought courageously, they have done a great job.
I applaud them.
You know, the fact that Joe Biden sat idly by as Putin was amassing troops and military equipment is unfathomable to me.
And I do give credit to the Ukrainians because in light of the attacks over three days over the weekend, hundreds of Ukrainian drones responded, and they crossed into Russian territory overnight and early this morning,
and dozens of targets in Russia and in Moscow were hit, and it caused a disruption to uh flights in and out of the Capitol, and Russia's defense ministry said it's forces shot down 296 Ukrainian drones over 12 regions, including the Capitol.
I'm not sure if that's true or not.
And but one of Moscow's four international airports in the Capitol also warned travelers of delays because of restrictions imposed because of the drone attack.
So they're not exactly knocking it down.
Now, it was Biden that put handcuffs on Zelensky from the beginning, wouldn't allow Poland to give them MIGs, wouldn't allow them to use certain weapons, wouldn't allow them to go into Russian territory.
At this point in time, if if Putin wants to destroy Ukraine and murder innocent men, women, and children, you can't blame Ukraine for wanting to fight back and do the same back to them.
Now, this is this is more of a Europe problem.
And for all the criticism Donald Trump is getting for trying to resolve this.
This didn't happen on his watch.
This is Biden's fault.
As Putin was amassing troops and military equipment, why didn't he pick up a phone and try and get a negotiated settlement then?
Why didn't he ever try to do that?
He never called Putin once.
He never reached out to Russia once.
Yeah, and I think that that Putin has gone absolutely mad and crazy.
However, you know, we have 82 senators now that have signed on to sanctions, and I think that those sanctions can be very, very effective.
And I think they will be very effective.
Now, the president, by the way, I mentioned cutting uh threatening to cut off federal funds for California unless the state stops forcing female athletes to compete with biological males.
Uh the bigger issue, and um I thought one of the biggest news developments with Harvard today, their president, Alan Garber, admitted that a lack of conservatives and a fear of voicing unpopular opinions on campus are problems that the university needs to address.
Anyway, he said to MPR, in my view, the federal government is saying that we need to address anti-Semitism in particular, but it has raised other issues, and it includes claims that we lack viewpoint diversity.
The administration and others have said conservatives are too few on campus and their views are not welcome.
We think it's a real problem if particularly research university students don't feel free to speak their minds when faculty feel that they have to think twice before they talk about the subjects that they're teaching.
That's a real problem we need to address.
Oh, so you're admitting that there's bigotry on campus.
Oh, very nice of them to finally admit that.
You know, I love how all of these these places, you know, feel entitled to your money.
National Public Radio and three of their affiliates in Colorado are now suing the Trump administration over the executive order signed earlier this month that would terminate the outlet's federal funding.
Tell me, why are they entitled to your hard-earned money?
Because that's your money that we're talking about.
Now, as it relates to the Trump administration planning to cancel all remaining federal contracts with Harvard, you know, why did we have so many contracts to begin with?
You know, why why are we dealing with six hundred million dollars in in contracts since twenty seventeen?
That is an insane amount of money that was going to Harvard.
Insane.
Why are we giving Harvard a penny?
Harvard has a fifty-three plus billion dollar endowment for crying out loud.
They don't need our money.
They don't need your money.
You know, and then what do they spend it on?
They got 4.4 billion in federal funds, 4.4 billion rather in federal funds.
What am I talking about?
$600 million.
Four on four point four billion dollars.
They have a fifty-three point two billion dollar endowment.
I mean, this is insane.
And then they're spending millions for improving diversity and biomedical sciences, more than 200 grand on a study for societal transformations.
And I had Alan Dershowitz on last night, and he goes, Well, you know, we don't want to stop, you know, funding for cancer research.
I said, Well, whoa, whoa, whoa, why Harvard?
Why don't we send the money not to an anti-Semitic, you know, educational institution and a radical left institution when you can send that money to Sloan's Kettering and MD Anderson and the Mayo Clinic and the Cleveland Clinic and NYU Langone and their Kansas Center.
And why don't you send it to the you know Columbia Presbyterian?
Why are we giving them money?
I mean, if you look at the federal contracts, $53.6 million contract for research and development services on tuberculosis that began in 2019 and won't end till 2026.
$15.2 million contract to study countermeasures against uh radiation.
The contract began in 2023, slated to extend to 2028, 4 million in an operational support contract that commenced in 23, set to, you know, continue to 2026, you know, millions to provide support for, you know, uh some mission project.
We did we don't need Harvard.
Harvard, you know, John LeBootlier years ago, former congressman, Long Island, New York, Harvard hates America, and he went to Harvard.
Pete Hagseth ripped up his his own, his very own uh degree that he got from there.
He wanted no part of it.
Don't blame him.
But the General Services Administration is sending a letter instructing all federal agencies to review the hundreds of millions remaining in federal contract.
We shouldn't pay a penny to Harvard.
And if we're going to give money to colleges, why don't we give it to the people that need it the most?
$53 billion in an endowment.
Let them give scholarships to people in need.
How about we give it to trade schools?
And why don't we give it to tech schools?
And why don't we give it to community colleges where people really can't afford to go out there?
It's it's uh to go to school.
Give it to the people that need it.
Pretty unbelievable.
Anyway, 800 941 Shauna's on number.
You want to be a part of the program now.
In some other news, ICE agents busted a sex offender and gang member in an illegal alien roundup on Matha's Vineyard.
Well, last time Ron DeSantis, the governor of my state of Florida, sent people up to Matha's Vineyard.
They wouldn't let those illegals stay there more than 24 hours, but they are sanctuary.
Sanctuary as long as it's not in their backyard.
ICE agents with the help of the U.S. Coast Guard arrested more than three dozen illegals on Matha's Vineyard in Nantucket, including one illegal alien who is a documented MS-13 gang member, another who's a convicted child sex offender.
Average home sells for more than 2.5 million in the two elite coastal uh destinations.
How much you want to bet it's the people that live there that tipped off ice because they didn't want them in their their prestigious snobby little islands.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott says that two Biden illegals arrested after the hit and run death of a Texas Air Force recruit should get the death penalty.
And this is a sad story.
I mean, it's just it was a fatal jet ski hit and run.
Guy took off, they found him.
And anyway, two more suspects, all in the country illegally.
How many more?
How much more blood will Kamala Joe and Alejandro Mayorcas have on their hands?
In Nashville, Democratic mayor Freddie O'Connell is being investigated by the feds for allegedly aiding and abetting illegal immigrants and obstructing ICE agents.
Good.
If you obstruct ICE agents, if he's guilty of that, he should be held accountable.
Anyway, it turns out there is a catch to uh the population of California.
Oh, it turns out they're counting illegals that are residents in the state.
Well, we have to make sure that that they don't get counted in the census because that'll impact congressional redistricting.
AOC is doubled down on this ditch and abolish ice bandwagon.
Illegal immigrant health care costs in blue states trigger an intense budget debate.
They are borrowing in California billions of dollars just to pay for health care for illegals.
The Trump administration has put a hold on all foreign student visas and until they can vet new applicants on their social media posting, etc.
Marco Rubio, Secretary of State, ordered U.S. embassies and consulates to pause any student visa applicant interviews effective immediately.
It's about time.
Somebody's got to get a hold of this.
Oh, and I did mention, by the way, Trump's tariff revenue topped 22 billion dollars in May.
Twenty-two billion.
If if if that number kept up, that would add two hundred and sixty-seven billion dollars to the federal revenues this year.
And by the way, all the predictions of doom and gloom did not impact the economy at all, as was predicted.
Consumer confidence literally jumped by double digits in May.
Double digits.
And all these foreign car companies are looking to build facilities here in America to avoid Trump tariffs.
They want access to our markets.
Trump understands the power of it.
