In today's video, we have multiple Republicans coming out against funding this Iranian conflict in the amount of $200 billion.
Starting point is 00:01:07 Also, TSA, they've had enough. More people are quitting. More people are calling on sick. And the excuses from Democrats will leave you stunned. And what is going on with gas prices? Well, we'll get into that during this video as well. But let's start here. Take a listen.
Starting point is 00:01:20 What's your message to TSA workers who are going without paychecks, people who are suffering in these long lines, preparing to travel, who don't care about the finger pointing, who don't care about the politics, they just want Congress to get to some solution. What do you say to them? Why can't this be figured out? We should be able to get this done today. All Speaker Johnson needs to do is bring the legislation to the floor that will pay TSA agents and reopen the parts of the Department of Homeland Security that have nothing to do with
Starting point is 00:01:53 ICE and have nothing to do with Trump's extremes. and violent mass deportation machine. That's all that needs to happen. And yet, House Republicans and Senate Republicans have consistently rejected paying TSA agents. Why? It's because they don't support getting ICE under control. This is their policy. It's Trump's policy.
Starting point is 00:02:23 It's Stephen Miller's policy to use taxpayer dollars to brutalize or, kill American citizens, as we've seen with the cold-blooded killings of Renee Nicole Good and Alex Prady. And the American people want that to stop. The bottom line is, Chris, you know him is out. Greg Bovino out. The Minneapolis operations over with. What more else do you want? So I think there's been a lot of compromise from Republicans, including the White House. And from day one, you guys never wanted to fund TSA. You only are saying it now because obviously it's getting crazy out there at the airports. And if we want to fund TSA, let's just fund DHS as a whole.
Starting point is 00:03:02 But of course, their only leverage is to hold these agencies hostage to demand reform of ICE. So it's not even a good faith argument that he's making. And this attitude from Democrats is what's continuing to lead to reports like this every single day now, this week. CNN continues to go back to the airports and say this. Mondays, Fridays, and Saturday mornings are always busy. here at Hartsfield, Jackson International Airport. And you look back here, you can see that 120-minute wait posted there, but that's not from this part of the line.
Starting point is 00:03:34 That's from the upfront part of it. We've already talked to the folks who are right there. They're probably going to miss their flight already, and we've been talking to folks in this line who preparing themselves and got here early. I want to stop real quick, and I know I talked to you guys a little earlier. Nervous about making your flight? Yes, I know at this point. Yes.
Starting point is 00:03:50 What has this been like? Hot and just annoying. I heard the word stressful. What does this feel like standing in this line, knowing that you may miss your flight? Just, I mean, nerves. Like, I'm just nervous and scared, you know. We kind of want to get to where we're going.
Starting point is 00:04:05 And it's like, we're just waiting. We've been stationary for the last 10 minutes. Like, no movement. Thank you guys for sharing. Kate, I wanted to stop real quick because this was the end of the line yesterday. And we knew it was really long. We're going to take that walk now and go this way and show you. The line stops here at the end of the atrium.
Starting point is 00:04:24 And then we just keep going. Let's not forget yesterday, 30% of the workforce here called out. We're not sure what that will mean today. So you see this line that stretches on for that main checkpoint. This is not where their timer even starts for that 120 minutes. The timer for that starts way back on the other side there. So if you're standing in this part of the line, which snakes around this direction, this is more than two hours at this point. Okay, so two days ago, it was a 90-minute wait. day it's now two hours wait just to get into the official wait time let's make sure you understand something let's say you're going through the drive-thru of Starbucks the current wait time as soon as you enter the drive-thru is 26 minutes now the wait time just to get to the drive-thru is two hours that's
Starting point is 00:05:13 essentially what he is saying it's absolutely atrocious if it was me i wouldn't even be traveling right now i mean this is crazy now they're trying to surge in as me workers as they can to help out but as you see when we get back to the other part of the airport, they have stacked people all the way around, and this is where it connects to the pre-check line. So you understand the pain point here for so many folks who will miss their flights. And depending on what airlines they are dealing with, some folks will be able to get rebooked. Others will have to kind of figure out if they're going to fly a different day. This is just the beginning of that rush hour. Now that it's slam like this, it could extend a lot longer. It will extend a lot longer because this is going to continue to drag on.
Starting point is 00:05:53 longer. And let me just set the groundwork so you guys understand. Department of Homeland Security, there are some major agencies that everybody's heard of, as you know, FEMA, TSA, Coast Guard, cybersecurity, by the way, ICE Border Patrol, HSI. These are all different agencies and there's more. Now, what Democrats are proposing is just funding TSA. They're still not talking about funding FEMA. They're still not talking about funding the Coast Guard, cybersecurity, and the other agencies. Just TSA. In my opinion, that's a non-starter. Just fund the whole department, folks. Now, when Chuck Schumer was asked about this, let's get his response.
Starting point is 00:06:32 Is it time to fund the DHS after four domestic suspected terrorist attacks have occurred? Is it time to fully fund it? If the Republicans don't agree to the ICE reforms that you guys want, all of them, what's the next step? How long are you willing to leave DHS unfunded? Uh, where are my gloves? Come on, heat. Any day now? Winter is hard, but your groceries don't have to be.

March 26 to 28th, visit Performance.C.A. slash upgrade sale for details. Ask the Republicans. All right. That was his answer, and I returned soon. serve to you. And that answer is despicable because it shouldn't even be a question at this point. As you guys know, we've been saying it this entire week. Government shutdowns should be illegal. If a shutdown does
Starting point is 00:08:11 happen, nobody should be getting paid, including the members of Congress. If that doesn't work, then the airports should just shut down. In fact, I would go with stuff further and say, anytime there's a shutdown, the entire agency that is impacted should cease to exist. It's the only level of leverage and pressure that would actually demand Congress to fix it immediately. There is no leverage at this point, even with innocent people hurting, even with innocent people having to quit and go find a new job or call out sick, that still isn't enough for Democrats to truly say, hey, you know what? I think we've made our point. Let's fund DHS and then we'll figure the other stuff out down the road. But no, let's go to a former TSA agent. Here he is sharing
Starting point is 00:08:51 his story. This is actually, it hasn't been my my second one. This is actually my fifth. shutdown that I've been through. I was actually with the agency for a total of five years. So through those five years, I've been through almost five shutdowns. And so that actually, at the stress level, it gives you very, very hard, especially in economic ways. But even harder when it wants back to back, emotionally just takes a big toll on you. So I had to sit down with my wife and we had to make the decision of like, hey, we need something stable. So I had to go job hunting and before I actually gave my notice to TSA, I already had something lined up. And that's what actually kind of gave me the courage to leave the agency and making sure that my well-being
Starting point is 00:09:36 and the will-being of my family was taken care of. So this episode is brought to you by pocket hodes. This is the world's number one, expandable hose. Now what exactly does that look like? Well, you guys could see it there on your screen. Old-fashioned hoses get kinks and creases. at the spicket, but the copperheads pocket pivot swivels 360 degrees, the full water flow, and freedom to water with ease all around your home. When you're all done, this rustproof anti-burst hose shrinks back down to pocket size for your effortless, handling, and tidy storage. Plus, your super light and ultra-durable pocket hose copperhead is back with it's in your
Starting point is 00:10:14 warranty. So bottom line is, for a limited time, my listeners can get a free pocket pivot and their 10-pattern sprayer with the purchase of any size copperhead hose, just 10. Textivori to 6.4,000. Again, text ofori to 6,000. And you're going to get two free gifts with your purchase. The link is in the description below this video and also in the chat. That is the proper decision that every man must make a decision to provide for their family, protect for their family. And then sometimes that means they have to switch careers, something more stable. And I applaud those people. I don't think anybody should be shamed for quitting,
Starting point is 00:10:52 by the way, as a TSA agent or finding a new job, you got to do what you got to do. Okay, you can't sit around waiting for the government to do the right thing here. That's bottom line. Now, travelers will definitely be impacted. Their flights will be canceled, but nothing's worse as far as losing your job and not getting paid for the work that you're doing. That's the worst case scenario. So I think TSA officers, that entire organization, they should turn it around on Congress. Just shut the airports down.
Starting point is 00:11:18 That's my own personal opinion. All right. So let's go to our next story here. This is the president at a ceremony today. Executive orders being signed. But this story is really about the $200 billion that some Republicans are refusing to go along with as far as the Department of War in this conflict in Iran. Let's start here.
Starting point is 00:11:33 I want to begin by just saying we're doing extremely well in Iran. The difference between them and us is they had a Navy. Two weeks ago, they have no Navy anymore. It's all at the bottom of the sea. 58 ships knocked down in two days. and we have the greatest Navy anywhere in the world that's not even close. But we are doing really well. We're not going to let them have nuclear weapons because if they had them, they'd use them,
Starting point is 00:12:01 and we're not going to let that happen. It should have been done a long time ago by other presidents. All right. So that was the president earlier in a ceremony that accomplished two things. One, he signed an executive order to essentially make sure that the second Saturday in December is exclusively for the Army and Navy game. There's a four-hour time slot. According to him, college football started to encroach on that
Starting point is 00:12:21 time slot and so I guess he wants to sign an executive order protecting it and he also handed out awards to multiple players from both teams so there's that and then as you guys heard that clip he was updating the american people on how he feels about this conflict in iran so it sets up what we're about to get into how some republicans are already going against the president regarding the funding for this conflict listen to representative loren bobert out of Colorado, here's what she said yesterday. I will not vote for a war supplemental. No, I am a no. I've already told leadership.
Starting point is 00:12:54 I am a no on any war supplementals. I am so tired of spending money elsewhere. I am tired of the industrial war complex getting all of our hard-earned tax dollars. I have folks in Colorado who can't afford to live. We need America First policies right now. And that, I'm not doing that. We need the Save America Act, FISA with warrants. There's a lot of hard lines that I have right now, and we've got to get our act together if we want to keep this majority.
Starting point is 00:13:24 And the path that we're going doesn't look very promising. Should the administration get out of Iran? That's up to the president. Okay, so number one, her last comment is exactly what you say. When you disagree with the president, but you don't want to make your disagreement the headline. You put it on the president. You say it's the president's call. It's the president's judgment.
Starting point is 00:13:44 That's a question for the president. It's the same thing that Tulsi Gabbard had been doing this entire week in her hearings. Secondly, going back to the $200 billion, it's not even really about the money. It's the optics of it all. When you're dealing with a Department of Defense that's already given $1 trillion, they can't pass a budget and people are struggling on the streets and you're asking for an additional $200 billion. Optically, it just doesn't look good for the average American. That is an objective reality. Now, at the same time, which brings you to the point number three, our men and women may need that money.
Starting point is 00:14:15 Absolutely. And we should do whatever we can to make sure that they are able to succeed in the mission that they've been given. But again, as I told you in politics, a decision from the president can be made where on one hand, financially it's smart, but on the other hand, optically it doesn't look good. That's exactly what's happening with this $200 billion. And that's why Democrats are trying to hop on it as a talking point to continue to essentially root against the president and men and women in armed forces. Let me show an example of that. Let's go to this scumbag, John Ossoff. Here's what he said. They're also, the Department of Defense, as you will know, is asking for $200 billion, billion with a B, dollars in order to fight this war. Where do you come down on that? I don't know if you saw Senator Lisa Murkowski's comments today, but I suspect that a request for an open-ended blank check for indefinite combat operations with no strings attached will fail even to attract Republican support in the United States Senate.
Starting point is 00:15:11 You think it will fail? I think that there's going to be. difficulty, even mustering support on the other side of the aisle for that kind of open-ended commitment. See, on one hand, I would prefer these people in Congress to first say, hey, listen, we want our men and women in armed forces to be successful. So I am willing to vote for this, to do whatever I can to bring this conflict to a close. If they need $200 billion to wrap this up as quickly as possible, sign me up. But what I don't want to hear is them bitching, moaning, and complaining about $200 billion when these are the same people who signed off on a trillion dollar budget for the
Starting point is 00:15:47 Department of Defense, knowing that this department hasn't passed an audit in a very long time, knowing they also voted to fund Ukraine. So there's a lot of hypocrisy there. Doesn't mean the criticisms are in Warranted. There are people struggling on the streets today. There are plenty of programs that should get additional money than what we're sending to the Department of Defense. I think those are worthy criticisms.
Starting point is 00:16:11 But we are where we are today. men and women in our armed forces, they need the money. This conflict is in the, we're in the thick of it. There is no going back. So we got to do what we got to do at this point. I don't think this is the time to sabotage the mission because of our disagreement financially over it, if that makes sense. Now, again, when this wraps up, Congress should pass additional laws to prevent maybe
Starting point is 00:16:32 something like this from happening in the future. But they won't do it. In front of the camera, it's easy for them to say, I'm not going to fund this. Yeah. No, you're not going to fund this because you disagree with it and you don't like the president. but if it was Ukraine or something like that, you'd be all in. Okay? Now, to Lauren Bobert's point, which is definitely legitimate, that's why you can't expect
Starting point is 00:16:51 the American people to support it. Essentially, financially I'm talking about. Now, obviously, if you're with the president, it is what it is. You're all in on this, okay? Because you understand you're going to support his decision making. But the independence out there, the people who have no loyalty to the president, the people who are just voting on the issues, there's no way they would support $200 billion. That's just the fact in the matter.
Starting point is 00:17:13 I'll prove it to you. Listen to this Republican. Lisa Murkowski say this. Tonight we're seeing some cracks among Republicans on Capitol Hill over what to do if the administration does actually come to them and ask for that $200 billion and new funding for the war with Iran. I support what's needed to ensure that the American people remain safe. So we'll see what that number is. I haven't seen the details. I will not vote for a war supplement.
Starting point is 00:17:37 I am so tired of spending money elsewhere. I think the original wording was around $100 billion, so we need to look at it. Let's wait and see what the request amounts to. Whatever it costs to finish this is worth it. How much is this going to cost? To what extent is the Congress engaged in this? And the answer on most of this is I don't know. Now this is the gift and curse of the Republican Party MAGA and what I would call true conservatives.
Starting point is 00:18:09 there are points in time where we do not all agree on the same thing, especially when you're talking about money. On one hand, there are people who are like, absolutely no hesitation, pay the Department of Defense, whatever they need, no question. Then there are people who are also a part of that same camp saying, hey, wait a minute, we can't just keep writing blank checks. Okay, what's going on here? And I talked about it earlier. And then there are other people who are like, listen, we shouldn't even be there to begin with. This shouldn't even be an issue. And so you have all of these ideas converging on one another. That doesn't mean there's some split, as mainstream media would like to put it. No, there's a difference of opinion, which is healthy. It's something that Democrats lack on their side
Starting point is 00:18:48 of things, by the way. However, I'll let you hear it from CNN themselves. This is the way they're spinning all of this. Take a listen. Yeah, there are a lot of cross pressures happening within the Republican Party right now. On the one hand, you have national security conservatives who are not necessarily sad that we're going and trying to be aggressive militarily in Iran. And then you have a lot of the folks, either the Rand Paul types, who have for a long time been opposed to things like this, as well as some of the new voters that Trump has brought to the party who are saying, I don't know if I signed up for this. Folks like Joe Rogan, prominent podcaster, saying this is not what I thought I was getting. But you also have now the fiscal element, fiscal conservatives versus those national security conservatives. And so all of this is creating a really tough situation made only better by the fact that so many Republican voters just still really trusts Donald.
Starting point is 00:19:35 Trump. And so that's kind of keeping the party together at this moment that people still don't really want to cross Donald Trump. And that's why I put it very carefully, that there's the MAGA coalition, there is the Republican Party, there are tried and true conservatives, and they don't always agree on the same thing. Obviously, if you're MAGA, you're with the president 100%. If you're conservative, half the time, you definitely disagree with the president. And if you're the Republican Party, I'm not too sure you agree with the president on much of anything. You're just tolerating him right now because he won the election. It was up to them.
Starting point is 00:20:09 He wouldn't be the president, guys. I hope we all understand that. Now, I'm going to play this clip. This was actually a week ago. Senator Murkowski, here's what she said when she was asked, is this conflict in Iran? Was it a mistake? Listen to it. A mistake to go to war?
Starting point is 00:20:27 Was it a mistake to go to war? Has it been a, has it been a, I don't want to use the word mistake, but we have been dealing with an enemy in Iran that means it when they say death to America. Okay, so bottom line is, if we left it up to Democrats, they would try to spin their way out of this. What does that mean? They're willing to give any level amount of money to Ukraine, no hesitation. When it came to Iran, their way of dealing with them was some flimsy agreement and unfreezing. their assets, which essentially is giving them more money. Now, the difference here with President
Starting point is 00:21:18 Trump, he's willing to physically do something. Now, by the way, this is Trump's legacy. If he's right on this, everybody wins. If he's wrong on this, then he'll have to eat it. But what I think we shouldn't be doing in public is trying to undermine the president and our men and women in all forces, we should be rooting for their success. All right. Speaking of that, because this is obviously another talking point from the media, we're getting into gas prices that is starting to be a talking point in an opposition to this conflict in Iran. Let me show an example of that. Watch this. What would your message be to President Trump right now about this war? Think about the people. Think about the people. The working class people like us, it's not just the fishermen, the truck
Starting point is 00:21:59 drivers, the delivery, the shipping companies. It's got to have a major, major effect on everybody. I don't understand the goal in this one. And it's just, he's definitely straying from his objective as far as the people are concerned. He, you know, he pleaded the people, the people, make America great again. We're tearing America apart right now. And it's sad because it's the working class people that are suffering the most. We know that it's becoming a talking point that the media will use, obviously to weaponize against the president. We know that it is something that's absolutely happening. We know that it is a result of the conflict in Iran. There's no doubt about that. but what we don't know is how long will this go on?
Starting point is 00:22:40 They've tried multitude of things already. He's tried the insurance. He's tried, you know, opening up different shipping routes. He's tried accelerating certain crude oil that was sitting at docks or ports for extended period of time. They tried a lot of things up to this point. But as I've said since the very beginning, and this is a known fact, crude oil, the actual price that you'll see, that will jump up and down quickly.
Starting point is 00:23:05 But that doesn't mean you're a lot. local gas station will react the same way. So there's a lag that ends up occurring. I don't think a lot of people understand that, but it really doesn't matter. Bottom line is, it's an issue. Okay. No doubt about it. All right. So how should we be talking about it? I guess that is the question. Well, let's go to Scott Jennings. Here's his perception on it. Take a list. But Scott, you see that there's risk in a message like that. to just tell Americans. Don't go to the grocery store quite as much. Don't go to Starbucks. Just suck it up for a little while. Well, look, there's there's risk in everything. Every decision a president makes has risk, and none are riskier than the decision to commit troops to the theater
Starting point is 00:23:51 of war, not just because of what can happen in the theater, but because of what can happen at home. Gas looks like it's 373 a gallon. It got somewhat higher than that during the Biden administration. It's now, we haven't gotten back to those numbers yet. But for candidates, you know, going out and talking to people, they're in a little bit different situation than the commander-in-chief who has to look at a national security situation. They have intelligence that nobody else has, and they have to make decisions knowing full well the risks that come with it. He made the call, the polling, by the way, among the Republican Party and among the MAGA-friendly voters, is quite clear. They trust the president on this, how long it lasts, and when we get out, we'll make a difference
Starting point is 00:24:35 on there, but right now, they do stand right behind the problem. And the rest of the country, and the rest of the country does not agree. This is the most unpopular war in American history, and for good reason. And the longer it goes on, the worse, those numbers are going to look. There is no instance in history of prolonged war benefiting
Starting point is 00:24:51 any nation. And the... How do you know it's going to be prolonged? We don't know it's not. Because that's the story of pretty much every war ever. How long the Venezuela world has? Well, that wasn't a war. That was a... But we haven't had a war since World War II, Josh.
Starting point is 00:25:06 I'm sorry, I had to cut them off. The most unpopular war in American history, man, I guess he wasn't paying attention to history. I guess he never really served because everybody knows Vietnam is probably number one on the list. But anyways, it doesn't even matter. The point is it is a risk. Right now, where we stand today on March 20th, it's not really a problem yet. Can be a problem if this conflict continues to drag on. I used the same analogy, although it may not be the same thing entirely.
Starting point is 00:25:32 When October 7th happened with Israel, everybody was on board. But as time went on, everybody jumped off. So, you know, again, the president legally, according to the U.S. Constitution, he has 60 days. That's really what it is. Anything past 60 days would require authorization from Congress. And if he's getting an authorization from Congress, I think that's going to be tough. That is going to be not only tough to get the authorization, but I think it will be tough to actually sell to the American people at that point. That's just my own point of view on it. All right, let's go to what the White House is doing to respond to this.
Starting point is 00:26:09 Today, the national average for a gallon of gas hit $3.91. Some states are seeing lower like Texas and Wisconsin, but plenty of other states dealing with four, even $5 a gallon. The White House knows people are paying attention, and they're going to great lengths today to try to reassure people this should be temporary. On Thursday, as President Trump welcomed the Prime Minister of Japan to the White House, He also confirmed reports he had spoken with the Israelis telling them he was not happy with their attacks on Iran's energy fields.

Starting point is 00:27:39 You talk to Prime Minister in Anniop about attacking the oil and gas fields. Yeah, I did. I did. I told him, don't do that. And he won't do that. We didn't discuss. You know, we do, we're independent, we get along great. It's coordinated.
Starting point is 00:27:55 But on occasion, he'll do something. And if I don't like it, and so we're not doing that anymore. Several European nations in Japan also issuing a joint statement yesterday expressing eagerness to ensure in ships can travel through the Strait of Hormuz. Tehran also appears eager to work with some countries as the Wall Street Journal reports taking back control of the strait assumed new urgency on Thursday as Iran began laying plans to allow select ships through with Tehran's parliament considering a law to charge tolls. Republicans insist Iran's pricing power is only temporary.
Starting point is 00:28:27 The straits of Hormuz, which have always been in secret, because of Iran are secure. So you got to look, thank God we have a president and an administration that's focused on energy dominance, but it's going to be a much better world for energy when we get through this effort in Iran. So you guys heard it there. Iran's response is to try to tax people for using the trade of her most. They obviously tried to officially close it. They tried so many things to use it as a leverage point. And they've been successful overall. I mean, if you go back a couple of decades now, they've had that leverage. So in that point, that's where I really do support what's happening because I don't want them to have that level of leverage.
Starting point is 00:29:06 I don't think a country who believes in what they believe and done what they've done to American soldiers, I don't think they should ever have leverage over shipping routes and pertaining to crude oil. However, not everybody sees that. So let's go to this individual. Another Democrat, in my opinion, laying out the groundwork for the enemy here. I'll just play it. How do you feel about that, lifting sanctions on Iranian oil when you're at war with Iran? Well, this is just a continuation of the lack of rationale for this war in the first place.
Starting point is 00:29:46 If we lift the sanctions on Iran oil, we lift the sanctions on the Russian oil as they continue to invade Ukraine, then ultimately we have to ask, what are we doing? What is the whole point of this exercise if Iran gets more funding for their ability to fight us? Russia gets more funding for their ability to fight against Ukraine and the United States and Ukraine's allies. So obviously this is just a continuation of absolutely still lack of a justification for this war. that makes any sense at all. And simultaneously, it shows the pressure that Trump and his White House and outfueling with the rise in the price of gasoline at the pump
Starting point is 00:30:38 because at a buck a gallon, every American driver is going to pay $500 more in gasoline prices at the pump this year. And by asking for $200 billion more for the war, at $2 billion a day for the war, that means he intends to keep the war going into the summer. So this is an absolute catastrophe for the administration, lift sanctions on Iran, lift sanctions on Russia, while simultaneously having no plan to reduce the cost at the pump
Starting point is 00:31:14 for the American driver. So on one hand, you don't want him to do anything about the gas prices, but then on the other hand, you're criticizing him over the gas prices. Which one is it, exactly? So the president's doing whatever they can do to fix the gas prices, to make sure they come down during this conflict. And that's really a tall challenge, by the way. I mean, it's just the reality.
Starting point is 00:31:33 Democrats run to the mainstream media and still continue to sound like they're rooting for the Iranian regime. And that means they're actually rooting against our men and women in our own forces. Let me know if you guys see it this same way. Give me your thoughts and your comments below, especially this whole TSA situation.
Starting point is 00:31:48 I mean, Democrats are just shameful at this point. As I talked about yesterday, they just continue to gaslight people around this. What do you make of that? What do you make of the president? and Republicans disagreeing with a $200 billion war supplemental. Just give me everything you got in the comment section below. All right, let's go to our next video.
Starting point is 00:32:05 So the DOJ has moved their case regarding the Russia Gate conspiracy from Virginia down to South Florida. As a result, they've already issued a subpoena to the former FBI director James Comey. And I think you're going to enjoy the reaction to it. If you guys are interested, click on the video because it's coming up right now. Getting ready for a game means being ready for anything. Like packing a spare stick. I like to be prepared.
Starting point is 00:32:46 That's why I remember, 988, Canada's suicide crisis helpline. It's good to know, just in case. Anyone can call or text for free confidential support from a train responder anytime. 988 suicide crisis helpline is funded by the government in Canada.
