Hey, everything you need to know on today's best up podcast, we take a look at what might happen if next week's election is razor thin and how it might play out through the next couple of months all the way to January 20th. Also, Danny Goki is with us, Emmy Award, I'm sorry, not Emmy, but Grammy Award winning artist. He's got an amazing song to share. And Christy Kendall joins us to talk about a divided nation. and how do we, quote, undivide us?

All this and more in 60. First, three of the most satisfying words in the English language are, I was prepared. There has never been a situation, I think, where somebody is like, man, I was prepared, and I wish I wasn't. What? That makes as much sense as every Republican is a Nazi. One of the most basic things you and your family might need is medicine, antibiotics, or otherwise.

What are you going to do if you can't get what you need when you need it? Are you prepared for something like that? You've been talking about food, making sure that you're prepared for that. You may not want to go out to the grocery store for a couple of weeks. Do you have food on hand? If there's a breakdown of services, are you going to be able to get medicine? You know that China is responsible for 80 or 90% of all of the medicine that we have shipped into the country. You need to make sure that you have antibiotics and life-saving stuff that you might not have access to.

And everything I'm about to share with you, these are not my words.

These are the words from the actual war games, from the left. And I'll explain, you'll understand, you know, over the next couple of minutes. So this is not a conspiracy theory. This is not my opinion. These are the facts of what is being planned. I just think we all need to be prepared for any potential outcome that is being planned right now just in case. You know, what happens if Kamala wins a close contested election next week? What happens if the vote count is in question?

What happens if Trump supporters engage in protesters? What happens on certification day, January 6th? Well, I want to start with something that was in the Washington Post in 2017. Three retired generals declared that the country must prepare now for a real insurrection in 2024. That's 2017, they said that. This is why when Biden got in, he purged the military of any Trump supporters, anybody who was online supporting Trump, and anyone who didn't take the vaccine because there were, assumed to be Trump supporters.

In that article, they seem to be worried about dissension from within the United States military. In other words, some on the left in 2017 were expecting and predicting an actual coup this time around if Trump lost. Now, is this bull crap? Trump supporters in the military are not willing to defy the U.S. government. This feeds into the entire January 6 hysteria. The Democrats have been pushing for four years.

But here we have these three retired generals talking about it. So is that true? Well, I don't know a single officer that is going to, you know, in the ranks, not up at the highest levels, that is going to violate the Constitution. They know they swear an allegiance to the Constitution, not to the President, if he is asking for. legal things to be done, unconstitutional things. Now, we have to consider are they willing, how far are they willing to go if Trump protests, no matter how peaceful they may be, gather in places like Washington, D.C. We have never expected a weaponized government and never expected how weaponized the federal

government, you know, could become after January 6th. Consider that we still don't know how many federal officers, FBI officers, were even on ground and if they were involved. We still don't know who planted the pipe bombs. We still don't know why Kamala Harris's Secret Service detail deleted text messages from that day on why they moved her away from the Capitol. What is our government willing to do? What have they done? And what are they willing to do this time? Well, it turns out we kind of know because there's been another war game. This was the White House, the Pentagon, and Congress have been briefed now on the findings of this war game. It's a progressive veterans group.

They conducted a January 6 war game. They even turned it into a documentary. So you can see all of this. It assumed the worst, including a pro-Trump rally on January 6, which spins completely out of control, including members of the military switching sides, echoing the Washington Post article, in 2021. The game attendees included some of the biggest

anti-Trump fanatics in the country, including the Trump impeachment witness, Alexander Vindman, the disgraced FBI agent, Peter Strach, General Wesley Clark, and even, and I kid you not, Bill Crystal. Okay, so everyone involved in this is virently anti-Trump.

Now, this is obvious fan fiction. here. It's what they dream could happen. But listen to the capabilities they talk about. Listen to this. For me, the question is, what's next? So we have all this capability from a federal perspective. What can you do? What should you do if our guard forces and our law enforcement capabilities are not sufficient strength to be able to handle things. You can authorize lethal force to protect law enforcement officers. Pause for just second. Is that correct? You could have fed. done it on the southwest border. We could have federal troops that with a presidential directive can protect law enforcement with lethal force. Got it? So these are anti-Trump

advisors, war gaming, saying the president can do lethal force. Okay. So they're talking about the U.S. military authorized to kill American citizens just to clarify, but let's go on. I would just urge you, and I know you've been resistant to doing surveillance on certain people, but you have to assume about the worst case scenario. No, no. What is your red line? I think that's right. And to be clear, my only hesitancy was a FISA on strictly. Everybody else would be fine. Okay, this is former governor Steve Bullock playing the president, discussing with Heidi

Heidcamp, potentially spying on his running mate. He's hesitant to do due to how bad that might look, but surveillance on every other American citizen he's good with. Here's more of that discussion. This time, General Clark, playing the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Is there a way we could get legal authority to monitor General Sims and Strickland and what they're saying to each other? I think that's a bad idea. The short answer is, yes.

The question is whether we should. I just beat him by six tenths of one percent. and we're in a deeply divided country right now. No one has to know whether we're monitoring this phone or not. No one has to know that. No one has to know that. Notice they're making this all about politics. They're not making it about principles.

But if no one knows, it makes it okay, I guess, doesn't it? Okay, so the scenario they're talking about is one that is clearly out of the ordinary and insane. But how long would it take for the Biden-Harris regime to jump to these, inclusions if a few thousand protesters showed up to D.C. on January 6th. And we know that this war game was briefed to the Biden-Harris White House, the Pentagon, and Congress, spying on Americans, authorizing lethal force on American citizens. Now, this is all interesting context given the recent update over at the Department of Defense, the defense. About a month ago, the Pentagon revised the DoD Directive 524.01.

This is a directive that dates back to the Cold War and it stipulates the guidelines for if or when U.S. military intelligence can assist domestic law enforcement. Now, before last month, there was a revision made in 2016. It stipulates on page five, the military intelligence involvement is, is pursuant to presidential or congressional action, in other words, a time of war. It also warns that, quote, they may not investigate U.S. persons or collect or maintain information about them solely for the purpose of monitoring activities protected by their First Amendment or their lawful exercise of other rights secured by the Constitution. Okay, so that's comforting.

Also, the fact the words lethal or deadly force do not show. up a single time in this revision in 2016 in the directive. Not once. However, about a month ago, it was revamped. And everybody says, don't worry about it. It's not a problem. Well, in light of what the left is wargaming right now, maybe we should be a little concerned about it. The words First Amendment in the directive were taken out. Also, it now includes levels of authority, and the language this time adds in lethality, lethal force, death, or serious bodily injury. Now, why?

Why is there suddenly a need to refine the rules on U.S. military intelligence spying on Americans a few weeks before a pivotal election? why did they feel it was necessary to add in the potential use of those assets using lethal force just a few weeks before that election? We asked the Pentagon to clarify. We got a email back that's very similar to the fact sheet they gave recently to Congress. We obtained that fact sheet. So this apparent nothing burger rated an official explainer to Congress and the explainers to lowly outlets such as

us. The response they gave us is this. The reissued directive does not reflect any change to the DOD's views towards its role in supporting civil authorities. That's not the question. To include law enforcement, rather, it provides clarification and delineates the approval authorities for activities conducted by the defense intelligence components. While the paragraph that's been most frequently referenced on social media is new to this directive, it does not reflect any change to the DOD's policy regarding the use of lethal force by DOD personnel. That is addressed in DOD-50-10.56, arming and use of force. Revisions of DOD issuances are routine and ensure the departmental policies continue to be consistent with the law and executive branch policy, and they

clearly articulate departmental policy. The release in no way is timed in relation to the election or any other event. Now, there's more. We have the full statement up at glenbeck.com, but here's what they're saying. Nothing to see here. Nothing. Nothing. The timing on the election?

Coincidence. Any ties to this wargaming? Nonsense. And the DOD directive that they listed shows that this is just business as usual. OD 520.5.6. What exactly is that one? Well, we looked at it. We have it up. To me, it looks like guidelines for the military that does security around their own bases and things like that. Now, is it just me? Or why is this being used as the example of business as usual? How is military around bases? Now, this could very well be nothing.

but it also could be something. We don't know. The government language, as usual, is full of confusing bull crap. So we have a fact check from the University of Washington. They state that the spread of this story is due to a data void. In other words, the government's not being clear. We don't know. We don't have the information.

We have no idea. At any rate, I find it suspicious, given the left's recent January 6th war game and what they discussed there that we can use military force and lethal force on the American public. Now, again, I don't think the military, I don't think the actual soldiers would turn their guns on average American citizens. I just don't think that is part of it. I don't. No matter who's president, I just don't think they would do that. maybe they would. I would remind everybody in the military,

your oath is to the Constitution of the United States, no matter if it is Kamala Harris or Donald Trump, your oath is to the Constitution of the United States. And in times like these, we made sure to make sure everybody in the world knows me, I was just following orders is not an excuse, not in America, may have been in Germany until the Nuremberg trials, but just following directions, just following orders, will not excuse you if you are executing unlawful, unconstitutional orders.

Everybody was briefed on this, including the Pentagon. What's being planned? get out and vote. Be safe. Do everything in the name of peace. And pray like you've never prayed before. May God save our republic. So silver is on the rise since just January of 2024 when I started talking about Lear Capital. The price of silver has risen by 39%. This is unprecedented. And with supply dropping and demand sour, right now, experts think it is only going to go a lot higher. The short term, it could raise somewhere between 60 and 100%. Why? Because there's a ton of industrial demand, solar energy, electric cars, new battery technology, all of these things require huge amounts of silver. And just in case you hadn't been paying attention, it isn't just here at home. China is buying

massive amounts of it as well. You need to be building a hedge against the insanity of a falling U.S. dollar. Lear Capital can help you do that by investing in precious metals. Find out for yourself. Lear Capital, silver is still relatively cheap. Get it now. Silver or gold, it's a, it's a solution for insanity. 800, 475, 2280. It's 800, 475, 2280. It's Lear Capital. Call them now. Now, back to the podcast. This is the best of the Glenn. Beck Program. Danny Gokey is a friend and a friend of the program and a big friend of Mercury One. He has helped us raise money and he's been at some of our gals and he was just there. I think it was last Saturday. If you don't know the name, he was a top three finalist on

season eight of American Idol. He became huge quickly. He dropped his first album, My Best Days, He's debuted at number four on the Billboard top 200 album chart. He's had a series of number ones since then. He was at our gala on Saturday, and he performed a song. I was here early enough to hear him do a sound check, and it was amazing. I mean, everybody who was setting up just stopped and listened, and you could tell it came from someplace deep. And I want to play it here in a second, but before I want to get Danny on the line with me.

Hi, Danny. Hey, good morning, Glenn. How are you? I'm great. Where did this song come from? Well, it started in 2023, I should say 2022. I was invited to sing at my friend's celebration party and her father who's a business owner very successful of a restaurant chain, Jeff Ruby. His name is Jeff Ruby himself, and he invited me to sing, God bless the USA.

And I'm singing there. They're naming a street after him. And I sing this song, God bless the USA, I sing in a cappella. And it just stuck with me. And I just started thinking, I was like, I need to release songs and redo some of these songs that celebrate America because we're not hearing songs about our country anymore. When the music stops, the patriot doesn't stop. Just like if I stop, you know, singing to God, like my passion for God fades away.

If I'm not sending my wife music that is, you know, romantic music, the romance is fading. And so I just started mowing up. I'm going to write some, I just said, I'm going to redo some patriotic songs. We need to get that patriotism back up. And then I had an idea to write a song. And this song came to me. It's called My America. You understand my wife's family was kicked out of communism.

My wife's family, everything was taken away by a communist dictator that sold the whole country on these lies of how great they were and how they were going to help people. basically just gaffled the people and my wife's family was kicked out of communist Cuba my wife's mother-law was my wife's mother was very wealthy and her grandfather was a very outspoken lawyer and had houses on the beach, houses inland

long story short my wife's mom lives with us and she was raised with maids and servants and now she lives with us at our house and she works at Walmart everything taken away at the young age of 18 years old and so anyway so I wanted to write a song

so I started writing this song called My America and how I just still believe in our country and how I still believe in the American dream and I mean I sat at the piano I just started writing and this song was birthed out of it it wasn't my intention to write a new patriotic song my intention was to cover the old ones

and reignite patriotism but it just so turns out that our generation needs this type of I believe I'm not trying to talk my own horn but two my own horn but I'm just saying our generation needs believers again we lost believers in the American truth. As a matter of fact, we have people who actually are turning their hearts

against their own country. And when the music stops and the patriotism stops, this is what happens. I have to tell you, I mean, the first thing I said to you, after I heard it, I came up to the stage in the sound check, and I said, do you remember what I said to you?

Writing a patriotic song. Oh, yeah, I do now. Yeah. It's not easy. It's cheesy real quick. It's cheesy real quick. And this is anything but. I mean, it is so good.

And I hope you recognized how long the audience stood in a standing ovation for you after this song. It's just tremendous. I want to play it. Go ahead. No, I just want to say thank you. I appreciate it. Where I'm noticing everywhere I go, I'm on tour right now, and I do this song at the end of my set because we're in election season, right? And I just, we just need people to kind of snap out of the rhetoric that has caused them to turn their hearts against the country and go back and remember the good things, right?

Yeah. And that's what the song is about, remembering the good things. If I only remember my wife's mistakes and trust me, she makes a lot of mistakes. Sounding like, starting with maybe marrying you, it sounds like, possibly. You could edit that out. I hope you'll be. Anyway, if I just remember her mistakes, I mean, you literally just, it's the end of the marriage. Yes.

You just to go back and remember the good. And that's what I hope this song does. Okay. Here it is. This is the latest from Danny Goki. It is called, gosh, what's called, hang on just say, My America.

My America, I still believe. Hear them say, our country's far too gone. Even claim our father's got it wrong. But I won't give up on us and I'll take a stand because we can overcome

this is not. the end. Stars and stripes, they sacrifice. Give our faults because you're nice. Fantastic. That's My America, I still believe. And it's by Danny Goki. Go to Spotify and iTunes and download it and spread the word.

I think you should sing this at the inauguration. I mean, if one side wins, you should say. I don't think Unfortunately, I don't think I'd be allowed to sing This song on the other side And I think that's a key indicator Do you hear songs being celebrated Of America on the other side of the lane

I guess I haven't been at a rally But I see a lot of footage from it And I never see that But I was able to sing this song In just this past week in Atlanta in front of Trump Oh, what did he say? What did he say? Well, he so

I got to try to explain it So it was for a faith rally the faith director and anyways they brought me up they were trying you know the campaign Trump's got a busy schedule

so the campaign was questioning why is we having Trump on stage when Danny's singing the song this makes a sense and schedule's busy they really pushed through and I got up there I have a video on my social media

of me doing it and you can tell Trump at first didn't know what was going on because they just don't bring people on stage and sing for him you know what I mean? Oh yeah no I know

I went and did that and you can tell when I got got to the America part, his face lit up, and then he called me over by him to shake his hand. I'm really hoping. I still don't know if he really knows a song yet, but it was cool that I finally, because I wrote this song last year in 2023, and I finally got the thing, but I'm hoping to sing it in front of the inauguration because Trump needs to become like a father to the nation, like Lincoln and like Washington. You know, we're in such division and hopefully, you know, when he wins, I hope,

begins a father nation and bring people together again. And this is a song for people who lost faith in America. It's a song, you know, Lee Greenwood, you know, he's got God bless USA, proud to be an American. Not many people are proud to be in America because of the rhetoric. Right. So we need, this is this generation, I believe, like proud to be an American because we've got to get people to believe again,

to be proud again, to be. So I'm hoping that it's a song of unity that can be sung at the inauguration. I think so, too. Well, I will, I will, I'll send it to him, make sure that he, remembers of her was reminded because I agree it's time to come together as people and I I hope that what we're seeing in America I know it's the beginning of something I know that there are more and more people waking up and saying I don't want to do this anymore you know I don't hate my country you know we've made mistakes but I don't want to hate my neighbor I don't I don't want

this anymore and that that change is coming hopefully it will be reflected on Tuesday, but that change is coming. And I really believe, especially looking at the way Donald Trump has been handling everything recently, I think he actually

you would think would be the last person that could unite us, and I think he may be one of the only people who actually can get it done. Look at what he's doing with. RFK and Tulsi and everybody else. Elon Musk, man, they don't agree with everything he

says? It's great. Yeah. And you're exactly right, Glenn. He is, I think God called him to be a business man to a president. And I really sense that God has called now to be a go from president this term to a father. And just like every household of the father, my kids are divided and the father has to come in and bring him together. I really sense that that's going to be his call on this next president. There's kids, our kids, the kids of America are fighting. We need you to bring us together. And how do we come together by believing? he comes through faith. Love believes all things. Love hopes all things. You know, love endures all things. So believing what you believe about something directly impacts, impacts how you treat that thing.

And so I think I'm hoping he brings us together. And I believe he will. Danny, thank you so much. Thanks for your friendship. And thank you for all of your good work. You are amazing. You really are. Thank you, Danny. And I appreciate you, Glenn. Appreciate your support. And hopefully Donald Trump, here's the song again. Yeah. Thank you for me. Thanks a lot.

Danny gokey. You can follow him on his website, Danny gokey. That's g-O-K-E-Y-G-G-E-Y-G-G-E-Y.com. Or you can follow him, you know, on X, Danny Goki. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. You know, what we were just talking about with that New York Times story, Sarah just reminded me because she's reading the book, Propaganda Wars, or listening to it on audio. It's really good on audio. You can get it wherever you get your audio books. But she just reminded me that the book outlines exactly how to figure out if that story is legitimate or not. And it starts with what is the original source? Once you know the original sources, media matters, you know it's bull crap.

So there's no reason to even deal with it in your life. You don't need to put that stuff in your head. There's so much information out there that's real and important. Why would you put a conspiracy theory left or right into your head? and it's getting harder and harder to find the truth. You know, it used to be that, you know, it was pretty close. You know, okay, they just look at it a different way. Now what's happening in the media, it doesn't reflect reality at all.

And how do we come together when people aren't even operating on the same fact? They just don't know what's going on in their country. And I think that's by design. many times. Christy Kendall, she is a director and producer of a doc that you should see. Undivided, Undivid Us. It's Undivid Us. You can find it at Undividusmovie.com.

And she's got a tough job ahead of her. How do we bring us back together? Christy, welcome. Oh, nice to be here, Glenn. Thank you. So, Christy, how do we, because I can talk to anybody. who disagrees with me, anytime. Until you start dealing in verifiable lies, like what's happening today, Donald Trump was not

talking about an execution squad for Liz Janney. He was calling her a warmonger. He said, give her a rifle and put her out there and have rifles pointed at her direction and see how she feels. But they're saying that this is a, you know, he's issuing an execution warrant for anybody who disagrees with them. how do you unite when you can't recognize the truth? Yeah, I mean, it's a great question, right?

Because so like let's put yourself in a situation, right? Let's say you're in a room with someone who has a really different take on that, right? Maybe they've listened to one of these other news sources. I think that getting, putting yourself in their position and thinking about what are they, what are they worried about? What do they as a human being? You know, we are all God's children, right? Like, we are all human beings in this big world.

And most people, regardless of what label they put on themselves, most people are really good people in this country. Like, I know you believe that. I do. And so it's like, so how does somebody watch that and come out with a really different take? And I think the point of the film isn't to say one side is right and the other side is wrong, is to say, how do we as Americans step into our civic spaces with civility and respect and love for one another? Because that's the thing I'm most concerned we've lost.

And I think we've actually scared people into not stepping into those civic spaces. And that, to me, is the most terrifying thing because that is actually, like, disagreement is what this country was founded on, right? Like, think about how much, like, Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson, like, hated each other's guts, you know? They really did. But they, like, they created this amazing country. And where disagreement should be part of the fabric of our country, not something we are just, like, terrified of. That's okay. So I want to play just a quick clip from the movie, Undivid Us.

Listen. I feel like there is a gay agenda. And I feel like they're pushing it on children, which are the most unsuspecting, vulnerable group of people that we have. I spent a lot of time battling people on the internet about this issue, and this is coming from a gay man. I just don't see the need for any of that to be taught. Teachers are kind of overstepping their lines. The students are not the teacher's children. They are there to educate them and teach them a curriculum.

Carol, what did Drake get right about teachers and what you do? Well, I think I heard you say they have good intentions. So you got that right. almost totally disagree with you about teachers having their own agenda. The day is so full with academics, especially in public school. So you're saying that doesn't happen in schools? I don't believe it does. I really don't. I've never seen it happen. I've never seen it happen, correct? I've never read that it's happened. Okay, my blood pressure just went through the roof. Okay. Let's address that. Okay.

All right. So we know that those things are happening. Not in every school, but we know those things are happening. We know the agenda of the teachers union, et cetera, et cetera. How do you find common ground with that? Yeah, it's actually, this is a great example. Because if you watch the film, what you'll see is that actually we ended up having Dre and Carol back for like a conversation just with the two of them to talk this through. And they actually came to a, a lot of agreement around, like, that parents should be informed. Like, the experience that Dre was talking about, which is something, he wasn't in the classroom all the time. He was hearing from his niece, who was relating things to him, and then also hearing a lot of other things going on in terms of the transgender conversation. And he obviously has a lot of stake in this issue. he's a gay black man in Atlanta. And he was like, why is this going on in schools, right?

And his perception was it's going on in every classroom, right? A third grade teacher. She actually doesn't do any social media at all. Totally not part of her. And it's not part of her classroom, right? So she isn't seamless in her classroom or her school, which you can totally imagine happening, right? That happening at all in school. And he's saying, well, I think it's in every school and everywhere.

And so maybe there's some sort of common ground that they can come to in terms of, well, maybe what should happen? Should discussion doesn't really happen right now, I think. So I agree with having those discussions as long as everyone is open to the actual facts, because it's not happening in every school. No. But it is an agenda that is being pushed at high levels. Would you agree with that? I mean, honestly, I don't know. enough about it. What what I really come down to is like I believe that I believe that I want to know

what's going on with my kid in my kid's school and I'm interested in having these discussions on a local level. Like I think that this whole national discussion gets a little crazy real fast in terms of people saying really extreme things on both. How do you not have a national conversation when they've nationalized our education system through the Department of Education. Because this way it was designed to go that way originally, and they changed that in the 70s. There is a certain amount that happens on the national level, but I actually think that's actually a little bit of a misnomer, too. I mean, I haven't looked at the research for a while. You know, I did a special when I was back at 2020 on the need for school choice and education. It was pretty

much one of the first hours it was ever done on school choice. By the way, everybody should know, you used to produce for John Stossel. So it's not like you're some left-wing activist. Treat me like I am. Yeah, I know. I'm like, let's just think about these things. No, I am, I did, I did use to produce for John Stossel. I love John.

He's amazing. But when we did this school, when I was really up-to-date on the education, numbers, the federal funding for education is pretty small. And the federal control of education, what goes in and the power that they execute with those purse strings is relatively small. It's a state-by-state issue in terms of, like, I think it was like 40-some percent usually comes from the state and 40-some percent comes from the local groups and then like around 5 percent for the federal funding. But in terms of like who actually controls what goes on in the classroom, I think most people, their local school boards are the best place to go and have those conversations

and then actually affect real change. And localism, less national control. The whole point of the documentary is like, let's take these conversations off of this place where it's like we have presidential candidates talking about which bathroom you use. Like that is not what I want my president thinking about. Correct. But I want the local governments and I want us to all of Americans be like, If we want to make a change in our community's responsibility to get involved on the local level,

where we can look at each other's human beings and have these conversations and actually make the difference. Preach that 10th Amendment, sister. Preach on. Oh, my gosh, this is an homage. In the documentary, you expose the outside-in approach that the media and the government used to keep us divided. It explains the difference between their goals and the goals of everyday Americans. Can you touch on that just a bit? Yeah, totally.

I mean, think about it. Who gets the most power? Who is incentivized by the rage machine, right? The politicians, right? Then they get a winner's take-all situation. They actually, if they think, if they can make you think that who uses what bathroom is a national issue, like, then they actually get the power to make those decisions. and you just feel like you have to shut up and take it.

And I just think that I want more Americans to feel empowered by their communities, by the people around them. So right now, and the only people who can change it is us. Yeah. So it is, it is one thing that the, I think the left did very, very well is just go into the local communities because that's where everything happens. and a lot of the conservatives and, you know, small government people just kind of were like, I'm just, I'm just working. You can't do that. You can't do that. Well, and there is a lot.

It's funny. In one of our focus groups, we actually had a really hard time finding conservatives who would even come and participate in the focus group because they automatically thought, you know, this is going to be a setup against me. And conservatives are more likely to just like duck and. cover, right? I'm going to take care of my own. I'm not going to talk to anybody. I don't want to, I don't want to offend people. And I think that we should, we should, we should enter these spaces with love and respect and curiosity and humility, but we need to enter the spaces. Christy, thanks for your hard work on this. And I know it's, uh, it's almost thankless at this point to say, hey, let's not continue to divide ourselves, but thank you for doing it. It's undivideusmovie.
