[0:15] I think they're walking up to me, and she's like, uh, yes, I was talking to you yesterday, and he is going to... [0:18] He's very clear in his conversations with urban stagers that, first of all, he couldn't begin to be for the White House. [0:37] His own position to be for the White House is a very important point to look at. [0:38] And to even prove, basically, the White House staff to be not available, that has to be a very special set of circumstances for the President of the United States. [0:42] How many of us would consider it? [0:43] This is the main thing, way up there. [1:09] You know what kind of bed it is? [1:10] It's got handles. [1:10] But they don't have a third bed. [1:11] I don't know. [1:11] I don't know. [1:11] I don't know. [1:11] I don't know. [1:12] I don't know. [1:12] I don't know. [1:12] I don't know. [1:12] Second, the FBI records, as far as I can remember, are made by the Chief Senator of the United States of America, and he was young. [1:31] Well, that was my reaction. [1:31] He talked so sensitive. [1:32] It sounds as if any material that they provided would provide means to come down and bring these people. [1:34] . [2:04] . [2:04] . [2:04] . [2:04] No, no, no, no, no, no, no. [2:27] This is my work. [2:46] And that's a lot of it. [2:46] And it was, uh, what we did at this point, you know, a lot of them were over-started. [2:48] And, you know, even for a lot of people, uh, it was a lot of fun. [2:49] And, you know, a lot of people said, you know, that's kind of scary for people to go back and do that. [2:51] And, you know, I wasn't in. [2:54] and that was exactly what he said. [3:12] He said he ultimately came out of that. [3:12] They were submitting him on whether or not the White House has appealed the FBI report to the great right. [3:15] That did not happen. [3:15] I can tell you all about it, but it did not happen. [3:16] So what I can say is that I will be staying here for three years. [3:18] Alright, first of all, I'd like to mention that in the second location, in the next four years, I'd like to make a break with her, and she can check with me if I can get her to hand it off. [3:42] So, Danny and I are saying that he's probably going to be the first one. [3:43] Okay. [3:43] Okay. [3:43] I'm going to show it to the house, and you can see how it's on that line. [3:45] So, the house is on the same line. [3:45] That's the value of land. [3:46] So, if you look at the other side of the land, [3:47] Thank you. [4:17] My father-in-law is great. [4:36] He's right. [4:37] He can be a little dumb, a little bull-headed. [4:38] I think that if he's right, then he's a little bit bull-headed on this. [4:39] I think he knows now that he's going to have to go back to that one-inch part. [4:40] And so, you know, 20 years, if you go back up today, you're going to have to say, I didn't have a story to tell. [5:03] I did what I needed to do, but I was very lost in your day. [5:05] I think it's the way you see it, but it's the way you are. [5:06] You're not in here. [5:06] You should be there. [5:07] That's right. [5:07] You should be there. [5:07] Yes, you are. [5:08] And you can get over it. [5:08] You can get over it. [5:09] The fact is, this is the greatest I've went far over the years to get FBI law in. [5:16] You'll today will not be behind me. [5:19] Not enough. [5:21] I don't know if this is the right time to call or if this is the right time to get together. [5:41] I don't know if this is the right time to get together. [5:42] Absolutely. [6:10] I'm sorry. [6:37] I'm sorry. [6:37] I'm sorry. [6:37] I'm sorry. [6:38] I remember when I was in high school, I was driving a car, and I was driving a truck, and I was driving a truck, and I was driving a truck, and I was driving a truck, and I was driving a truck, and I was driving a truck, and I was driving a truck, and I was driving a truck, [7:00] So, we are going to take our record and send it to our booth within the shore. [7:25] And that's where we are going to send it to the field of education. [7:26] So, I'd like to thank you for your time. [7:27] Thank you. [7:27] Thank you. [7:32] We need to find the party. [7:34] Where is that party? [7:47] The Chinese today will win for sure. [8:06] Now we are heading out to eat. [8:07] They have three reporters and a lot of vans that move on over. [8:08] We are going to start this year. [8:09] We've got a little boat boat that's going to be 13 days from now. [8:18] Everything's out there, you know, let's do it. [8:44] You know, they probably haven't seen her come down to do, you know, that kind of thing. [8:46] So, I don't know. [8:46] I don't know. [8:46] I don't know. [8:47] I don't know. [8:47] I don't know. [8:47] I don't know. [8:48] I don't know. [8:51] And I hope that when you guys are ready for the fall, it's just so good. [9:18] It's so good. [9:18] It's so good. [9:19] It's so good. [9:19] It's so good. [9:19] It's so good. [9:19] It's so good. [9:20] And it's a little bit of a bad thing to do, because there was no voting on the front line for today. [9:40] I'm very happy to be here today. [9:40] I'm very happy to be here today. [9:41] I'm very happy to be here today. [9:42] I'm very happy to be here today. [9:42] Uh, or if it doesn't happen, we'll do that. [9:54] So that's good. [9:54] And I guess, well, I'm the reason that I agree with him now. [9:56] It's going to be very helpful to each of us to help each other out. [10:00] ... ... ... ... ... ... [10:29] I don't know. [10:55] Okay. [11:22] Okay. [11:22] Okay. [11:22] Okay. [11:27] Yeah. [11:40] Yeah. [11:58] What? [12:25] Oh, no, no, no, no. [12:51] That's my problem. [13:19] I'll be late if there's people around. [13:20] I'll be home on Thursday. [13:27] . [13:56] . [13:56] .

[15:31] um [16:05] All right. [16:28] All right. [16:28] ... ... ... ... ... ... [16:55] And that's where you have the warning sign. [17:10] . [17:34] . [17:36] Well, there's been several conversations here and there, but I'm excited about the great work that's been done here. [17:56] It's not always going to be hard, but it's a lot of work. [17:57] It's a lot of work. [17:58] It's not always going to be hard, but it's a lot of work. [17:59] It's a lot of work. [17:59] It's a lot of work. [18:00] It's a lot of work. [18:00] It's a lot of work. [18:00] It's a lot of work. [18:01] It's a lot of work. [18:01] It's a lot of work. [18:02] It's a lot of work. [18:02] It's a lot of work. [18:02] It's a lot of work. [18:03] It's a lot of work. [18:03] It's a lot of work. [18:04] It's a lot of work. [18:04] It's a lot of work. [18:04] It's a lot of work. [18:05] Well, it's been a long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long, long. [18:38] and all the things, great water, so we, the guys had a bunch of hollers on top of it, and on the end of it, so that's what we did. [19:03] We did a great job. [19:03] That is the kind of celebration we do every year. [19:04] It's very, very amazing. [19:05] I gotta thank you for all of that. [19:13] All right. [19:39] All right. [19:39] All right. [19:39] All right. [19:39] All right. [19:41] One, two, three, four. [20:02] But I don't see, I don't see the idea that he's seen enough vigilantes or kids. [20:18] He wants to be a survivor of that. [20:19] He wants to appear. [20:19] And he has nothing to hide about the war. [20:20] He probably hasn't had a solution. [20:21] And, and good. [20:21] He's proud of the war games that I'm hearing. [20:26] I've been trying to investigate this for the first time in my life, but I'm not going to do it. [20:51] I'm going to do it. [20:51] I'm going to do it. [21:06] I'm going to have to speak with your library guy over there. [21:25] That's right. [21:26] And, uh, what I'm going to have to do is meet with him. [21:27] We've been meeting on briefs, and he's on top of the investigation. [21:28] I was out making a lot of speeches. [21:29] Then we got kind of passed. [21:29] He went in on top of the investigation, and he's an eye on the gun. [21:31] But he was in with his chair over there, you know, for, you know, the crazy office room. [21:53] Yeah. [21:53] Well, I think, you know, I think it would be awkward if I, you know, even if I later, you know, if he ever did, you know, later, I wouldn't have said I didn't want to talk to him like that. [21:59] . [22:26] . [22:26] . [22:26] . [22:30] . [22:48] . [22:50] . [22:58] ... ... ... ... [23:20] ... ... ... ... ... [23:35] All right. [24:05] Right. [24:14] Right. [24:36] ... ... ... ... ...
