Well, Grey, I think that this shutdown is ridiculous. It really is. I think the current sitting government is refusing to bend on simple things, healthcare. And as a result, you know, we can't get or they can't get an agreement on healthcare, so they're holding food hostage as a result. And I think governments are meant to protect their people, right? And for a government to hold food hostage because there's a stalemate, that's terrible. Trump could easily sign an executive order that says, okay, we're going to keep these benefits going. Regardless, people need to eat. But he's not doing that. But he's signed so many other executive orders that help rich people without hesitation. He's pardoned so many criminals with executive orders and people that are bad people that have gotten out of jail as a result of Trump and committed more crimes that were along their criminal genre. I think he could make this go away, this food problem anyway. He knows, but he doesn't because he's seen everything along political lines. You're a Democrat or you're a Republican. You're red or you're blue. You're with us or you're against us. And even in, like, bringing in military into particular states, he's always saying, we're going into Democratic states. Like, he's operating the government like a regime, crush your enemies, hurt people that don't agree with you. That's not a good person, in my opinion. So, Gray, I don't see this as going well. I really don't, man. And at this stage in the game, if there is one in eight Americans that are going hungry as a result of this, I think the international community has to step in and say, come on, we did it in Gaza. We brought food assistance to people who were starving. Now the United States is in that situation. The current sitting government is allowing its citizens to starve, allowing people, families, children to go hungry. So I think that at this stage in the game, you have to do what you did for Gaza, humanitarian assistance. Obviously, the government that's in place doesn't care enough about its people to make sure people get to eat. So the international community should step in. That's how I feel about it, Gray. V-O-N-U-K-Z.
