Hey, everybody, welcome to another episode of Aizan Geopolitics, special on today. We have Mick Mulroy, of course, and we have YouTube Juggernaut, Chris Capuluto, Chris Cappy. Cappy Army, his new channel. Check it out when you're done watching this. Go and subscribe. I'll have a link in the description. He doesn't really need the help, to be honest, but he's doing great. So what's up, guys?

How are you? Awesome. All right. So where are you from? Yeah. Where are you coming from now? All right, so I was in Juba, Sassab. Al-Saidan, we have a humanitarian project there.

And then we were trying to fly to Amman. And we're in the air and they said, and the war started. So they turned up playing around because they closed the airspace. Drones and missiles are flying over it. And I ended up here in the UAE. So talk about a difference. Yeah. I mean, a Juba.

Yeah, that's like night and day, I would assume. Yeah. That's the place to be. right now. So I mean, obviously everybody's aware what went down, Israel preemptive strikes on Iranians, nuclear sites and, you know, not just sites, but also like nuclear scientists, IRGC folks, a ton of people, Mick get it together. And it's been back and forth over the weekend. Mick is very popular. So it's been back and forth. Iran. for like the first i would say what 12 20 hours they didn't really fire back at all

people were thinking like oh my god they took completely took out iran's ballistic missile capability obviously that's not true because over the last three days iran's been uh shooting some salvos over in israel that have got some have gotten through people have been killed in israel people have been killed in iran uh it's kind of unprecedented what's going on mick i would definitely want to touch base i mean this is your old this is your old this is your old career about like the paramilitary stuff where musad got into iran was able to set up a drone base um and hit a lot of uh iran's ballistic missile capabilities i think some air defense stuff some radar stuff as well uh so there's a lot to unpack obviously we're all glued to the fucking news and to

twitter and stuff like that i don't know where you want to start i just threw out a bunch of stuff but make go ahead make i lost your audio no i muted it because they keep getting phone from going on different TV to talk about this. To start with, I think there was some tension. I know there's a lot of speculation that it was an act, but I do believe the White House did want to see an actual nuclear agreement. I think they wanted it to be more stringent than when they pulled out of, you know, the 2015 JCPOA.

But I do think it was a genuine desire to avoid the need for a military conflict, at least between the United States and Iran, to get to an agreement that would ensure that Iran would not get to an agreement. But the sticking point, I think, was the enrichment to it inside Iran. That's what they wanted to do. The U.S. wanted it outside. So they didn't have all the capacities to centrifuge and all that stuff so that they could be enriching it past that. And you can, once you know what you're doing, and they were upgrading to the highest level of centrifuge, you can go pretty quick. to get to the 90% of a nuclear weapon, then you would have to have the device that actually triggered.

So, but I think Israel was concerned that the agreement itself would have taken attention and the pressure off of Brown. They would have removed the sanctions, and they would still try to get it. So I think they elected to do this. And when they, when they pulled the trigger, it was much more than just going out. after Nantan and Istafan and Fordow and all the ones we knew. It was all the ones we thought we knew. And it was military bases and it was ballistic missile launch sites and ballistic missional

manufacturing. I knew this was, so they've taken this opportunity. They're going after all of their military infrastructure, not just the nuclear. They're going after their economic infrastructure. They're hitting gas, oil, plants, they're going to put them, they're probably will cripple like Bondur, Bas, one of their main ports. They're going to, they're going to keep going until Iran is crippled. And I think what they would like to see is an uprising from the people of Iran. And they're

saying it openly. So it's not, I don't think I'm going out on the limb, because the regime is incredibly popular, right? It was before this. The economic situation is dire, and it could be very good if they unleash their capacity of the global market. And I think that all that together is where they're headed. As far, you know, to your point, it was a masterful way. Intelligence preparation to battle space, getting Mossad in there, getting all these teams in there, both the secret don't drone bases, plus teams and commandos that are going out and put specific sensors on site. so it's easier to get to target it, you know, with directed munitions.

Apparently, they hit the senior leaders eradicated the general staff. I mean, literally, there's nothing left. They eradicated the leadership of the IRJC, which is, you know, the special operations. They eradicated all the nuclear scientists all the way down to technicians. And I think some of the technicians, they didn't know what they were, so these commander teams have to do old school, you know, set up. And then the IDF completely dominated the airspace. Like they're refueling planes right over Iran. Like there's nothing coming at them, which that's an indicator that they're completely confident of their air domination.

Because they didn't even have an air force to really fly. And quite frankly, once they took out the air defense systems, there wasn't much left. And they relied on Russian systems as 300 and et cetera, which aren't very good anyway. So they're in a situation where they're just probably debating targets had leisure flying above Iran and taking them out. And I think hopefully this can end with a ceasefire as it usually does. I'd like to see a change in the regime. I think that that is actually an option. But if not, that it ends with a ceasefire and a significantly neutered Iran, which I think is good for not just Israel and the United States, but the region.

Would that ceasefire mean them coming to an agreement as far as it would, would that ceasefire include some kind of guarantee from Iran that they wouldn't enrich past 20% or something like that? Or how might we get to a ceasefire, do you think? That's a good question, Chris. So I do think you could tie the nuclear agreement in with the ceasefire. You could have both, right? because they're not really in a position in position anymore. They killed all the negotiators. Yeah, I was going to mention that too.

Yeah, they killed like the chief guy for sure that was supposed to be in Oman. Yeah, I know. Right. So this bluster's over. They've proven their paper tire. They couldn't, they didn't last a night. But, you know, it isn't about gloating because we're talking about the people only, not the leadership. they would benefit greatly with a nuclear agreement where they said, okay, we're obviously never going to get a nuclear weapon.

But we're going to need to get sanctions relief because the economy's crippled and are now a military's crippled. So if they get sanction relief, perhaps even the international community invest. I mean, this is what President Trump is pushing for the most is economic development around the world for the United States. That's in the benefit of Iran, but they have to come to ceasefire and they have to come to new. Something I'm wondering is from, let's put ourselves in the shoes of the Iranian leaders, do they have pressures on them as far as, like, let's say they said, okay, we will stop enriching, we'll only use nuclear power that comes in from outside the country. Do their people then revolt because of that? Or do they face a possible consequence of looking weak and accepting just like rolling over, basically? Or do they have an incentive to hold on sort of like, let's just keep taking these missile strikes until they give up?

That's something I'm always curious about. It's like, what are they weighing? At this point, it seems obvious that if I were then, I'd be like, okay, I guess we got to take what they offer us. But I wonder if they have incentives not to. Yes, and obviously they're trying desperately to cut off the population from what's going on, because it's clear that they just got their hat-handed. You know, they cut off the Internet, and then, thank goodness, they're getting Skylink, right? Starlink, yeah. Yes, we use it all the time, every, all our program, which is a great system.

And they turn it back on, right? So they're not, they're not going to be able to hide their population, how bad. they actually were. They couldn't even secure, you know, just basic levels of defense for the people. I think they have, you know, so I could care less about regime preservation, but that's all they care about.

They have an opportunity, I think, to acknowledge, you know, they're going to shoot, and they killed some Israelis, civilians, of course, they targeted directly into civilian populations, apparently ordered directly by the idol, right? So, with British men, it says,

kill civilians, right? So I don't even know if they've been traveling a lot, but I don't know how much they've even hit a military. So they're going to try to claim some level of, you know, we fought back. But it's in their own interest. And to your point, Chris, it's called a multinational consortium. And this country I'm in is in it, right? They don't want countries to enrich their own uranium because then they could become a nuclear power weapons, power country. So countries are accepting that The countries that already have nuclear weapons, which that's over, they already have them. They could enrich the Iranian, and they could provide that level enrichment that you need for power and medicine to the countries like Iran, like UAE. And then they have the nuclear weapon.

But we don't see – because as soon as Iran gets nuclear weapons and Saudi is going to want nuclear weapons and the UAE's going to want nuclear weapons, probably Qatar and, you know. And then we have an expanding world with nuclear weapons, which isn't in anybody's country. If they would accept that, I think that Trump administration could get to a nuclear agreement. And then the sanctions started to go. And thanks to, you know, the actions of the ID Senate, Israelis, they've reduced Iran to the point where there was a huge strategic mistake, to be frank. One, to allow your proxy forces to attack Israel like they did. And then they, you know, eliminated, process eliminated, was really degraded, has a lot. And now they've just shown the world that's a paper tire.

And it was a strategic mistake not to actually agree to the consortium. We probably wouldn't, if the U.S. would have came to an agreement with them two weeks ago, I would have found, I think President Trump would have put a lot of pressure on Prime Minister Netanyato, not to strike the country that we just came to an agreement, right? Because that could have rupture the agreement. He obviously wants that. but they did not and now we are well we did have the six round of talk schedule for today

obviously it didn't happen because they swacked the chief negotiator so that's out the window I mean I do hope they do come to the table at some point and they figure it the fuck out because Israel and Iran lobbin you know missiles at each other and you know bombing each other I feel like it's not

optimal for the region I think that's safe to say also there was some reports just now just before we came on that likely Musad settled five car bombs in Tehran like just now five car bombs

yeah so they get busy your regular old uh v-bed style or they're giving them a taste of their medicine back at them yeah I saw that from a couple sources

so I mean Mick you're a former paramilitary guy I mean we better be fucking taking notes I know this isn't really our style

for the most part but I mean hopefully we are taking notes I think we should be taking notes on all this, every level. CIA and DOD, both with what Israel's been able to do and what Ukraine's been able to do. I mean, they are at the brink of modern warfare, at the front end. And I hope we are. One of the hardest, I think, things to do is to foment an actual insurrection and revolution.

It's, and perhaps if it's accurate, if it's reporting you're reading, it might be, that they're trying to foment this. People just start feeling completely out of control, that the regime has lost all control and power, which is the only thing that they have over people because they certainly don't look out for them. They terrorize them. It's probably, if it was massad,

there probably is a plan to kick this off. It only works if it's real. Like it has to be genuine, organic belief that they're, but you can trigger. You can use trigger points. both on the influence side and potentially with this kind of activity just to give people those impotence to going wise up. It's interesting. I saw Netanyahu speaking, and one of the things he was saying, he was saying,

I'm getting reports that the Iranian leadership are packing their bags, that they're getting on planes. I think there may be a little bit trying to invoke some of the images that we just very recently saw of the Assad family, getting on a plane, going to Russia, getting safety. and you see it on Twitter too. There are posts getting hundreds of thousands of views, people seeing posts of maybe it's real, maybe it's not, but you see a plane in Iran. Someone's filming it with their phone and they're saying, oh, look, it's the Iranian leadership is packing their bags and leaving. And I think Israel would definitely want in their interest. What they want is for people in Iran to see and believe that their leadership is running.

Yeah, I think you're exactly right. I think that's a very good point. And maybe some of it's generated. Maybe some of it's real. But it starts to get people to think, oh, they're leaving. This could happen. So the belief that could happen could actually make it happen. Yeah.

Once they see it, they go, let's, let's, and I hope somebody gives them safe passage because they get the hell out of there. I mean, do they deserve fake packets? No, they deserve to end up in a, you know, getting smoke. But, you know, if it does, it ends the conflict. Sure, right. Yeah, it's worth it. So if the Iranian people, you know, rise up, they take control. They, they're in charge of their own destiny.

I think that's a good thing. We'll see. We'll see. It's rather, it's got to come from internal. I don't think an external war, right? There's not going to be a ground invasion. That would be, I mean, even for the United States because of the geography, quite frankly, it would be a night.

So it's going to have to come. from inside the country, and that's going to be done through an influence campaign, in addition to obviously develop. If I'm Israel, you almost need that to happen now, because Iran, if, I mean, they're going to have every reason from their point of view to try to develop these weapons. You kind of need regime change if you're Israel, and without it, Iran's just going to double down, it seems like. And if I'm Israel, and I'm looking at this and I'm like, I don't have the bunker buster bombs that I need to take out Iran's nuclear program.

I don't have the military capability without the United States to completely destroy their nuclear capability. Like Iran's, yeah, we killed or they killed all their top scientists, but like they're going to get replaced. That information at this point is institutional. I almost feel like Israel has a strong incentive to keep bombing probably, you know, until they can affect regime change. I don't know. Even if they reach an agreement, like, I feel as though Iran, I just can't see them not trying to break that agreement at this point or secretly develop weapons. I mean, I don't know. This regime, I mean.

No, and they've said that, that if they're attacked. that their policy will shift from, we don't want a nuclear weapon to we absolutely have to happen. And, you know, I mean, from their perspective, they look at, you know, it's used all the time, right? Gaddafi, he gave up his, you know, aspirations for a nuclear weapon, and he was killed in ditch. And, you know, our friend in North Korea, he got one, and he's getting loved letters to the President of the United States. And I think Israel is just going to have to keep mowing the grass, as we used to say, at the G-1. They're going to have to keep doing it.

I don't know that, I mean, there's been some indications from some of the Israelis, I know, that they might have some version of ammunition that is more effective than we think they have. I don't know that to be true. But they might have just destroyed the surface areas of all these facilities. and eventually they can dig it out. Can I be a little cynical, a little meany right now a little bit? I mean, let's say these bombings

and the attacks on the sites and their economy and stuff actually doesn't inspire regime change, right? Because it's kind of a tall order, right? It's a little bit, I mean, I don't want to say it's wishful thinking. I mean, I guess it is. I want it to happen too.

Everybody does. They're bad guys, the regime. But let's say it does it. and they do, they're set back three or four months in terms of like their nuclear program and they just keep crank it and they keep going. And then they eventually produce 15 bombs. Then what? Right?

Because like you said, they did say if they got bombed, they will double down. Yeah. Worse than a nuclear armed Iran is a nuclear armed Iran after this. Right, right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I think the U.S. gets pulled in at that point.

for bombing campaign, possibly. I mean, that would be my guess. But, Mick, I have one question. What do you think the United States is possibly, is this a threat that we have to be concerned about in the homeland here? I tend to think it's more likely that this type of a drone attack could potentially now be done on U.S. bases, especially small patrol bases. But do you feel like there could be potentially sleeper cells inside the U.

United States that we need to be concerned about? Because this kind of attack would be a lot harder to pull off in the continental United States, I feel, but not impossible. But I wanted to get your thoughts on that. So I think, I mean, they've made a series of strategic mistakes, so attacking the United States could be the next one, but it would be a bad idea. Like, to frighten the regional superpower is for Israel. People who really look at the capabilities of the militaries, Israel just way, out matches anybody in the Middle East. It's not even close. They would be fighting them and then pick the world's superpower to fight with. And then that would give us the opportunity to drop the very Bunker Buster bombs you're talking about, Chris, and do a lot more damage to the nuclear.

So we could say, it's on. Yeah, now you bring them the biggest dog on the block. Bad choice. Does that mean they won't make it? I don't know. They've made a series of pictures. So, how would they do that? China as well, I mean, like, any of our adversaries potentially. Is this the type of thing that we are exposed to? Sure. Yeah, I think we should look at what the Ukrainians did

and apparently what the SBU and what the Massa did. Because it's a very low-tech, actually, option to go up against the most high-tech facilities. you know, air bases with strategic bombers, B1s, B2s, F-35s, and just take them out. It's a huge problem. Would Iran be so bold? I don't know that they would instigate it. It would not probably, you're right.

It wouldn't necessarily, it wouldn't be in their interest because part of our deterrence is, like you said, it's that hitback. It's what's going to come after. And right now we haven't escalated to that point. Whereas with Russia, it's kind of like Ukraine didn't really have anything to lose by attacking. What are they going to do? Get bombed more. But in this case, yeah, you're right. Like, who wants to pull America into a fight right now?

Right. So I think like maybe as far as China, people who are like capable of doing this and like kind of, you know, playing the long game, they, I could see them wanting to set something up like that similar to what the SBU did with. You know, our goods get delivered by tractor trailers, right? So they're ubiquitous in the society. I could totally see them having a program that if shit hit the fan with Taiwan and stuff, and we're in open kinetic conflict, like, they want to fuck some shit up for a pretty economical, you know, pretty economically. Yeah.

Yeah. That's where I, they might plan this. So in the event there is conflict between us, then they use it. That I can see. Because what do you got to lose? You're already in it for this. We got to be ready for this. Because this is a low-tech, very high risk to our force.

Sort of crazy, crazy coincidence that it just so happened to happen in Ukrainian intelligence pulls this move off. And then the Mossad pulls this very similar move off. And supposedly they were both planned over the last like 12 months or so. It makes you think. Is Sarah? I mean, I don't know this. Hopefully it's us.

Hopefully it's us because to me that means, one, we're supporting our allies, which is a good thing. Two, that means we know what we're talking. We know this stuff. Like, I have no idea, to be fair. So I'm not giving up any secrets because I don't know. But I hope you're right, Chris. I hope I think it's, it'd be great if we're the ones that are passing this information, because that means we're thinking about this.

Right. Either we're doing it or they're talking to each other. We're getting into speculation here, but it just seems so crazy coincidence, like that they don't have any coordination between them, whether it's through us or not. It seems like something's going on there. I think you got, I think you're on to some. I don't know that, you mean, how much time does Ukraine have to be, like, interfacing with Israel? And, I mean, they don't have the time, even if they had the inclination.

So there might be, the more we learn about it, the more commonalities? Yeah, yeah, yeah. For your theory, I do. That means more way in it. I would be fantastic. Can I be cynical one more time? Before you go,

before you go, Mick. You know, Musad obviously showing their big guns and what they're capable of, and it's incredible in terms of covert action and stuff like that. It kind of bums me out that they couldn't stop or be part of being able to stop $2,500.

Hamas guys from going into Israel on October 7th. It really, I'm being a little, I'm speculating somewhat. I mean, it seems kind of crazy that like one of their areas of like focus is Gaza, right? And they were, they allowed that shit to go down. Or drop the ball anyway. Partly because it was their internal security force. Shibat. Yeah.

And also, I think when we talk about deterrence, When I think about that, I think part of the reason Israel was so complacent was because they were like, there's no way they would do this. We will go and we'll crush Hamas. You'll crush Hezbollah. And then we'll bomb Iran's nuclear sites if they did some shit like that. Yeah. They literally did every single one of those. I do.

I don't think it wasn't. I mean, obviously, they wouldn't let that happen. And if you talk to Israelis, a lot of them's like, we saw him rehearsing. It wasn't an entity And you people I'm talking to that I have reasons to say this but they'll swear it's not wasn't an it wasn't Intel failure was of leadership

Yeah they're saying they're rehearsing Obviously they conduct an attack Apparently they did in the open like Including what those fly around The hand gliders Yeah and I just think Yeah they're not there it's just I mean also they were getting a ton of pings

From like 8200 unit 8200 They were like sending it up to flagpole like hey this is sketchy like yeah they're coordinating something um they just didn't take it serious that's something that the leadership and i think some of where you resigned uh just like any leadership you're right jats i have to run to all right get the hell out of here mic thank you guys good seeing you chris yeah great seeing you mick back on whenever you know you'll have me because it was a great conversation but we're joining us here at nice totally thanks mic Thank you.

I'll wrap up with Chris. You can go. Safe flight. Thanks, Mick. Mulroy, of course. You can check out Lobo, Fogbo. The links are in the description. Mix 10 out of 10 dude.

Christopher, what do we say? Where are we at? Have we figured it out? Peace in the Middle East? I think we were like five minutes away from figuring out peace in the Middle East and then Nick had to go. Yeah. So close.

Jesus, Mick, God. I mean, you just came out yesterday. with a great video talking of detail on this whole thing. I'm sure you were probably editing that thing up until like the last fucking second. Oh my God. Yeah. Yeah, it was, we were we were balls to the wall, but working on that for like 24 hours, over 24 hours straight. Just putting together the reports, putting together the animations.

It's crazy. You get updates and updates and you're like, oh, God, I got to come back and do this while I'm editing. Oh, my God. Yeah. Doesn't sound stressful whatsoever. I mean, what else? What do you think? Let's do a little bit more speculation.

what happens in the next following couple weeks, because Israel did say that this will last weeks. Yeah, my read on it so far, like I really do feel as though Israel's got to keep going. I don't think they're going to stop. They've made it, they put out statements that they're probably going to go for another week. The big thing that changed over the past few days,

kind of is their focus on Iran's economic sector. They're hitting their oil fields, which, Iran's already poor, destitute their people are broke. their economies and shambles. So this is only going to put more pressure on them. Sounds like the retaliation at this point might be that Iran pushes for closing the street of Hormuz, but I don't kind of don't see how they do that at this point with zero air cover, you know, that was always sort of Iran's like ace in the hole.

It was there. We'll threaten to shut down the straight of Hormuz. Maybe they can still do that. It just seems almost like they've been completely neutered and they cannot, they're totally impotive because they can't shut that down. They can't, they don't have a credible claim that they can do that. Maybe they can and I've got it wrong, but that was sort of always, like the, when you look at the, what do you call it, the, like, when you play, when you game it out, okay, Iran, that, Israel

strikes Iran's nuclear facilities. Iran then strikes residential areas in Tel Aviv. Okay, then Israel says they're going to attack Iran's economic sector. Okay, if you attack our economic sector, we'll also attack Israel's economic sector and we'll shut down the street and gas is going to cost, you know, no, no fun summer this summer. Summer 2025 is over. Yeah, it's canceled. Yeah. So that was always sort of the play by play of what?

what we knew would happen if this domino effect fell down. But given the fact that Iran is so blustered, I don't know if they can shut down the street. And if they do try to, does that mean the end of their Navy? I, you know, that's sort of where it looks to me. Yeah. And you also, so like talking about like the proxies and stuff, like Hezbollah was like, yeah, we're not, we're not, we're good for right now.

Like we're not interested in like getting in on this at this moment. So, you know, it's pretty fucking wild. Like one of their strongest, strongest proxies is like tapping out at a moment like this. Yeah, it's unbelievable like what they did with their command and control. I think they're scrambling over there. I think they don't know which ways up. They're trying to get ballistic missiles on the other end and stuff. Like they did say they had 2,000 or so, but like how many of those can you actually get out, you know, get set towards Israel?

So frankly, I hope there's a ceasefire soon. I hope. I don't know. This is going to be fucking sticky for a while, unfortunately. Yeah. Even when, so obviously, I'm pretty partial to Iran getting their butts kicked. But even when you see that happen, it's never a good thing. You never want to see this happen.

Hopefully, we all come out on the other side of this. better in a more stable region, hopefully, because the Middle East has been just a bit of a dumpster fire for the past year or two. So hopefully, whatever happens, it leads to stability and peace. Totally agree. I mean, I hope it happens. It won't. But whatever.

Fingers crossed, let's be a little bit optimistic here. I hate being like Mr. Negative. What else? I think I had something else, but I forgot it. It's fine. Not a big deal. Chris, let's talk a little bit about you. I mean, what's it like day-to-day being a YouTube megastar?

Dude, I could show you what it's like. It's like just drinking coffee and I've got stains on my shirt. Just it's a grind. It's a grind. I am a mess. Yeah, the YouTube content stop is good right now. We're starting new businesses, new ventures that are coming out in the next few weeks that we're very excited about. So, yeah, things are going very well.

We're unleashing the Kappy Army. Yeah, awesome, man. So are you happy with your move? It's been very good so far. It's been a good decision. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Cappy Army, check out the link.

It's in the description. I mean, you already know who Cappy is. We're not going to fucking help them with many subscribers. We'll probably get like three to seven subscribers, Max. But I love those three to seven guys. Those are the guys that I love that I need. Fanatics. Yeah.

Yeah, I'm sure there's, I mean, it's update. It's things this obviously is a fluid situation. So I'm going to try and probably get another episode of Eyes on with some of the boys during the week, too, because I'm sure there's going to be update. and it was funny. I did, usually I try and do two shows a week, right? Weekends usually with the boys. And then like another one with like maybe one guy,

maybe Jack jumps on or a guest. I couldn't get anybody during for during the week. So I jumped on it because like the LA protests and stuff was going on. And I'm like, I talked about that. And I'm like, there's definitely going to be something going. Something's going to go down before the fucking weekend and won't be able to talk about this. So I want to hit on this. And something went down.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. We were, we were supposed to. launch a video on Saturday about the L.A. riots and then this happened and I was like, it just, it would be strange. We got to go with the craziness that's happening. And yeah,

in the next week we probably have something on the riots because those are, I mean, it's a less of a black and white story. It's less easy to cover and to think about, I think. Because this is from my perspective, from Americans, most Americans' perspective.

It's like, okay, even if you don't fully agree, with what Israel's doing in Gaza or even if you really hate what they're doing in Gaza, you still have a lot of people have sympathy for, they like to see Iran and get it on the chin. But with the riots,

it's a little more, it's like, okay, how do we think about domestic troop deployments on American soil? How do we? Because everyone, our country is sort of very founded on the principle of not quartering or having

troops in the streets. So it's very, it's like almost in our DNA that we don't like to see it. But then there's the other part, it's that's, that's bouncing around our heads of like we don't like to see lawlessness and disorder and looting and shit either. It's, yeah, the riots are tough not to crack. Yeah, I mean, yeah, I could see how you would need to take, uh, go through that topic kind of, kind of carefully for sure. I mean, because people are, very worked up. I mean, so am I.

I'm going to be real about it. Like, I think it's bullshit. Yeah, yeah. In New York City, it's, there's, there's, like, people going, they're whiling out every day. Yeah. Yeah. All right. So check out, Chris.
