As Republicans scrambled to do damage control. It was totally out of context, you know what he was talking about. And Trump assures Americans all as well. When the war is over, it's coming down. It's going to come down like a rock. Did he just write Democrats campaign ads for the midterms?
I love the inflation. Plus, why billionaire Bill Gates closed door grilling over his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein? Does not compute with some officials. Mr. Gates was aware that Jeffrey Epstein had been convicted and he continued to interact with him to seek money for his foundation. Then Emily Blunt talks about taking the lead in Steven Spielberg's highly anticipated science fiction blockbuster Disclosure Day. And actress activist and podcast host Sophia Bush is our special guest co-host. Here come hot topics with Warping, Sarah Haynes, Joy Behar, Anna Navarro, Sunny Hauston, and Elizabeth Ehrig Griffin. Now let's get things started. I see this version of me. Shown of all kinds. I see what I feel.
I feel wonderful. I feel wonderful. I feel wonderful. I feel wonderful. I feel good. I see it. I feel so wonderful. Now up to zero, Peanut and gas! Welcome to Pikachu with motherfucker. Woo, baby, wait a minute. Wait a minute, wait a minute. Wait a minute. Just hold on a second. Did you see what happened at the Don last night? Oh, come on. The next scored the greatest comeback in NBA history. This was the greatest game and the worst game. It was all the one.
But for me, the greatest game I've ever witnessed in my life as a fan of any sport, this goes down for me as the greatest game ever. And you were there. And I was there. So was Sophia. Oh, no, no. You weren't there. No, I was asking you this morning if you stayed, I stayed up at the hotel. Which one was going to go to bed early? You guys, I'm a guest here. I had homework to do. I was at the foot of the bed. Swimming at the TV like a set of asses. Yes, that was. It was the look. Let me do the reconstruction. I'm going to get it. Alright. Jayley. You got to do the music. Where's he in the middle? Oh. Oh. Thank you. This one's the greatest way to say to people. It ain't over.
Till it's over. Till the hefty person sings. Till the one with the big feet sings. Doesn't matter. It is not, it is never over till it's over. Don't give up. You saw what they did. And they did, they played poorly. And those reps. Yep. Y'all. Because you were making calls nobody ever heard of before. I mean, people would stay, because I was in a box and people go, you know what he's talking about. I said, no, I've never seen anything like that. When I tell you I was out of control. Yeah. But the mental aptitude of an elite athlete, it is easy to win when you're awesome. It's easy to win when it's tight and when you're close. It is not easy to come back. Yeah. And a finals game at time. I think it was 29. 29. 29. Yeah. To find that, and this isn't an individual sport. This is a team sport. So you need more than one person saying, we still got this. And you try to teach that to young people. Yeah. This game will forever be the example. Yeah. But in a noby, can we just talk about the most legendary quarter of anyone's league?
I mean, he literally 33 points, 10 for 15 shooting. He also had more three pointers than towns and Brunson can buy. Yeah. Like that guy killed it. He saved the day. It was like a religious moment. He was so tough. I also want to shout out Jose Alvarado. Yes. He was the Puerto Rican player. He was guarding Webinyana. Yes, he was. And he is the reserve guard. He's the backup guy. He's the understudy. And to come in in the fourth quarter and score eight points. He had rebounds. He had a cis coach. Mike Brown said he changed the game. He is the one that comes off the bench and says, this is my shot. I got it. Yeah. That was something else for me. That's the team. I was yelling. What are you? Are you rushing us? Are you rushing us off this time? What? Okay. We want to properly welcome our guest, Paul. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. We want to ask you. Thank you. I'll tell you mine. Sophia Bugh. Yeah. Oh, there it is.
Oh, there it is. Welcome. Thank you. You ready to have some interesting things to do. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. You ready to have some interesting conversations? Oh, I've been ready for this my whole day. All right. All right. I used to get into it with my mom. I would tell her nothing good happened leading up to the closing bell of school at elementary school. I was like, they're not teaching us anything anyway. Pick me up early so I can sit down and watch Oprah. That's my next part. My mom was like, you're eight. What are you talking about? I have been waiting for this desk my whole day. Welcome to it. Welcome. Welcome. So here we go. Thankfully. Thankfully. You know here. You know who wasn't here yesterday. He was far away from the court. So, because you do with him. He took away whatever he had. He didn't want to. Whatever he had. It wasn't there. And we were happy for it. And when he was asked about the ongoing and escalating war in Iran, which has spiked inflation
to a three-year high, this was his response. Are you concerned Mr. President about the latest inflation number of the last three years? I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I'm not sure he knows what he just said there. I love the inflation. I love the inflation. You know why? Because as soon as this war is over, you know I can say it now. It's something you didn't know. Do you know we've been taking out millions of barrels of oil. Nobody knows it. You know who doesn't know about it? Iran until right now. I'm not sure what he just said there. I love the inflation. It was the part that I got. Oh, but wait. He tried to walk him back. He tried to clarify things after saying he loved that inflation numbers were lower than expected. I mean, does he? Has he been outside to talk to people? Does he know what's going on? I mean, does he? Do you think people are? What? I want to ask you because I was curious what you think of this insanity.
When he says stuff like this, what do you think? I think it's coming to a Democratic ad near you. Donald Trump, I love the inflation. I mean, the economic stats are unbelievable. Now, people are really hurting. Inflations at 4.2%. But the important thing is that it's outpacing wage growth, which is 3.4%. Moody says that the average American household is spending nearly $300 more a month due to inflation. And this one just blows my mind. 10% of American households have food insecurity. That's higher than during the pandemic. People are hurting. And a lot of Americans voted for this president because they thought he was going to address the cost of living. And here we are now in a war that nobody wanted saying, I love the inflation. Not good. Not good. It also just feels tone deaf for a guy who got handed $400 million by his daddy for doing nothing. To say that in a country where the average American can't afford an unexpected $400 medical bill for themselves or their children without risking bankruptcy. Who are you to say that the pockets of the American people are not your highest priority as the president?
And he said it. He said, I don't care about American finances. He actually said it. And so I believe, just like my Angela, when someone shows you who they are the first time, believe them. He said it out loud. And I think what's really unfortunate is that he campaigned on bringing down inflation. He did that and people believed him. Oh, what you know, he meant bringing it down to y'all. Yeah, that's what he meant. When he said bringing it down. This is his MO. He does this thing where he repeats it enough that either people are going to start believing him or they'll just say it because he said it. Like the election was rigged or the January 6th was just a protest. And or some tors. You got a little rowdy, you know. And that we were, the other countries were pouring their criminals and their people that were claiming asylum. They were, I think he confused what a silent meant. He thought it was like crazy people. But whatever. If he says it over and over again, people are going to start to just go with it. I think Lawrence O'Donnell recently said he's like this sleazy guy that's trying to sell you an apartment in New York and selling and showing you a brick wall when he opens up the window and says, look at your great.
I rented that apartment. You know, I think he's that kind of guy. And I think that's the backdrop too of like it seems like he's more interested in like home renovation than like being president. And it's not his home. Yeah, it's like we're building the ballroom. We're, you know, we're painting the US seat thing on the white house long. And we're gilding the White House and it just, it feels so detached from the reality of so many Americans right now who are just struggling to make ends meet. Well, go ahead, baby. And it is detached. And I think part of the problem is that it's hard for us to any of us, by the way, even all of us sitting here on the show to put ourselves in the shoes of a billionaire president. I had to look this up to make sure I got the math right this morning to put it in perspective. A million seconds is 11 days. So like somebody becomes a millionaire 11 days. A billion seconds is 32 years. The difference between a million and a billion and this man has profited some estimates say four billion dollars since he took office.
He's made much more. Yeah, yeah. Come on, y'all. He's selling meme coins. It's one big grift. It's one big grift. We should have given this man an HGTV show and said go renovate the ballroom. Yeah. And he brought some us along. All of us along. The painting in the butt. The painting in the butt about all of this is, you know, people forget you can't just keep coming to the taxpayers. We are not a wallet. We are every one of us are working our tails off. We're taking care of our families. We're trying to get everything done that we can get done for our families safely and well. And you keep coming to us for some... Some nonsense. And I'll give words. Stuff. For not smart stuff. Yeah. For ballrooms. I don't have a ballroom. You don't have a ballroom. I don't have a ballroom. Nobody in this room has a ballroom. I don't think. Has a ballroom. None of these folks are making over their reflector pools to an or building giant arches in their backyards.
They're trying to feed their families. They're trying to put gas in the... They're trying to get the work. But you keep cutting jobs and getting mad that there's not enough people to do stuff. You got to go. Yeah. It's time. You know? And I say that with all due respect. I say with all due respect. I say with all due respect. A lot of people put all their hopes and dreams in you. And now, their hopes and dreams have taken the backseat to insane stuff for this country. So please, sir. Sorry, sir. Please, y'all. You have the power to make this change. Yeah. You have the power. Don't let somebody tell you, oh, this is Jerry Mander, then you don't have a place here. Every vote in this country counts. I don't care what anybody tells you. Go and exercise your right. Exercise your right to vote for whoever you decide.
Because there's a lot of folks. And this is something that I try to say all the time. I've known Republicans and independents my whole life. And I've been friends with them. This is different. Yes. This is different. So do your homework. Find out who has your best interests. And please, please, don't sit back. We cannot afford it this time. We cannot afford it. This will be one of many questions that we're going to be asking our guests on Tuesday. We are going to be joined at the table by Vice President J.D. Vance. We'll be right back.

Hello, welcome back yesterday billionaire micro soft founder Bill Gates sat down behind closed doors with a house oversight panel to answer questions about his past relationship and business dealings with Jeffrey Epstein which prompted a lot of different reactions. Take a look. I hope my testimony is helpful to the work and partner of the committee to find justice for the victims. No one's accusing Bill Gates of any wrongdoing and I certainly appreciate him coming in voluntarily.
Mr. Gates does believe that Mr. Epstein would write emails that were oftentimes untrue. Mr. Gates also was very clear that he was never introduced to women or girls or anyone under age by Mr. Epstein. He's very well coached. He's got great attorneys. I don't know that we'll gather too much from this. I'm sorry that he associates with Jeffrey Epstein so much but in the end what's done is done and what happened happened. So Gates said he was aware of Epstein's criminal conviction that it was sexual in nature but didn't know the details. He also denied witnessing or participating in any crimes. So what what we all take away here. I think for me the biggest thing is that he wasn't under oath and he wasn't subpoenaed and it wasn't televised right it wasn't recorded. The only people that seemed to have been subpoenaed were the Clintons. And so when you're not under oath under penalty of perjury which would land you five years in prison. I think it gives you a lot more leeway to perhaps not be as open and honest and transparent as one could be.
And I look at what Melinda Gates said. Melinda Gates said that they're 27 year marriage ended in part because of his affiliation with Epstein. And I just don't really as she was she also mentioned that she was happy to get away from the muck of it all. So I just can't believe that a Harvard educated founder of Microsoft knew that someone had a conviction in a sexual nature and was out for 18 months and couldn't travel because of said conviction yet decided not to look into it further and proceeded three years later to have this kind of relationship with him. I don't find it believable. Well he didn't even meet Epstein till 2011 and that first deal was 2008. The fact that it was a part of his divorce means this was a conversation that was had ad nauseam before you get to that point. Correct. The disgusting part here is even in a prison pedophiles are the lowest on the hierarchy. Prisoners got it right.
Why do people like this continue to trade in complicity with one of the most voracious pedophiles of a generation for money in power? They turn their head. I don't care if Bill Gates did anything. He absolutely knew something was off. Melinda Gates said from the first time she met Jeffrey Epstein and so did Howard Lutnik's wife. My first reaction was this man scares me something's wrong. Now add to it all the knowledge of an easy little Google search. You're telling me that you found it Microsoft so you know how to use technology. That's the problem for me. Yeah. And why there is such a double standard for it's essentially grown up boys will be boys. Like I didn't really know anything all the women knew. The women always know. Yeah. Why has it been on us for generations to start the whisper networks to protect each other to figure out how to never leave you alone in a room with that creepy guy. We all know is a creep.
Like come on guys you're telling me you didn't know and that his jet or whatever else he was offering to you was worth all this human suffering. Yeah. And by the way Bill Gates pointed out he said that Epstein was an expert black male male which is also what Howard Lutnik said. And he claims that the only wrongdoing that he he had done is he had had extramarital affairs and Epstein was holding that over his head. We know that was his MO that's what he was doing. He's getting access to powerful men and holding things over their head to get whatever he could from them. I think it is it is remarkable and it's good that he testified. I do believe it's still a crime to light a Congress even if you're not under it. It is still a crime but the penalty of perjury is is it's not as high of a bar. It's not as high of a bar. I think anyone who comes for that can give useful information. I count as a win because there needs to be accountability and there's been way too little so far. Yeah. To that to that. We'll be right back. You ready? What do you say girl? I want actual solutions. That is just the truth. We're here and we're not going anywhere.
America's most watch number one daytime talk show is the view on ABC in stream on Disney plus in Lulu. Welcome back. A lot of people are loving the way Joe Biden's in battle son Hunter has been rebranding himself on social media. Publishing posts and interviews on topics like his family's politics, no his family politics getting sober. Take a look. I was definitely degenerate crackhead. 100%. I got sober and clean the silver as I said June 1st, 2019. I've not touched a drinker drug sense and I don't and I know at least for a day I'm going to make it here. I am say you know what you can survive anything. Now people are also enjoying that he often makes himself the punch line in his social media posts.
So what do you think of his rebranding and taking back his narrative? I think it's going to help a lot of people. I think it's going to help everyone knows someone who's been affected by addiction. I think probably every family in this country. And so I think it's wonderful. I'm here for it. He's got like almost a million followers on social media and he actually said this. Why does everyone keep saying this? I smoke crack. I would never have wasted cocaine by putting it up by nose. I mean that is a very realistic thing to say to a user. I love about this is he's trolling the trolls. If you're going to go online and enter the hellscape, get ready for it to fly right back in your face. Because it's like one post after the next just trolling all of these people. I have here for it. I applaud him highlighting sobriety. My sisters are recovering addict and it's important to me and I know it helps people. I know it's really, really not like that he went on Candace Owens podcast.
Oh, yes. He has a huge platform as a Biden and to go on her podcast, somebody who's spewed some of the worst anti-Semitic racist tropes and somebody who has pushed just very dangerous conspiracy theories. I thought that was a bad use of his time and he should go elsewhere. Well, but you know what? It's one of the things that I think Democrats or people who are left. I don't know what to call folks anymore. I feel like in a way you're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't. Because you want to hit everybody. He went on there to make sure that her audience understood that, listen, you think I was, but you see what's going on here, right? So I think that's probably why and you go to the very pinnacle of the worst. And you say, I know what you said about it. He hit it. He hit it. And he'll go to all of them. He'll go to all of them because they are in the gracious way possible saying, I know what you did to us.
And I know what you try to do to my entire family. I know what you did. And you know what? I'm telling you and your people and you're, I'm not scared of y'all. I'm willing to tell you that's right to your face. I was here. So I think maybe there's a little bit of that. But I look, you know, I wish he'd say, now who wants to talk about my computer? Yeah. How long did they say that the computer was a problem five or six years? They said that he left cocaine in the White House. Yeah. And he was like, I would never leave my drugs behind. Yeah. You know what I appreciate about it is to your point, the kind of old rules, unfortunately don't exist anymore. I think a lot of us, I missed to corum. I miss actual research and corroborated journalism being what gets on the air instead of a TikTok theory that is then disproven on page 68 of the paper. But at the end of the day, I think if you don't go into some of these spaces, you leave a vacuum for the worst misinformation, for the worst racism, for the worst sexism to grow.
And while I do believe, my forever first lady, Michelle Obama should stay high. Like when they go low, she should stay high. I don't want that woman in the muck, but I was raised by a mother who was raised in the Bronx. You want to go low from the butter? Oh, I'm from the butter. I want to be too insensitive. Let's go to that. I'm out of the room. I have to. Like, we have to get in the truck. When they go low, we go to the Earth's cross. This is what I'm saying. That's right. We kept it classy for too long. And at this point, I'm like, come at me and I'm going to go to the mountain. You know what? Here's the thing. You can do that, but all it does is blow back on you. Oh, yeah. I know a hatred in a tall. I know. So I, you know, when they go low, I chuckle. Fair. But what if this point you're making is for every nine out of ten times they go low and you don't meet them, but maybe on the ten times you do have to go and make that energy. And I do have energy. So that's the first thing. You do have to. Ten times. I don't do it every time I want you to work. Ten times is a lot to, to end off.
Yeah, to the heart is okay. I'm going to say five. I've been reminded I should not go to the Earth's cross. I should go to the Earth's core. Yeah, actually. That's because the cross is, it's very, very, very nice. You can get to the cross now. Yeah. We'll be right back. David Neor, the most trusted, most watched newscast in America.

Haska nominated actress Emily Blunt as earning rave reviews for her performance in the highly anticipated Steven Spielberg sci-fi thriller Disclosure Day. She plays a woman who suddenly develops extraordinary abilities or extraordinary abilities, whatever you think, that are getting in her harmony with the universe. It's putting her in with one with the universe. Hey, look, don't listen to me. Look at it. I know this thing that's happening, it's... It's not coming from me. It's like I'm just a passenger. It's not a bad thing. It's like a really good thing.
It's like your music. You know when you're in the flow, and it just feels... I'm in the flow. And I told you I tell you when I get where I'm supposed to be, and... This is it. Right here. It's where I'm supposed to be. Okay. That's right. Right here. On the bill is where Emily Blunt's supposed to be. Please welcome the fabulous Emily Blunt. Thank you. Welcome. Nice to meet you. I was trying to remember where I know you from. I know. Are you sure we didn't use to sweat out in the same gym in LA? That rise, man. Yes. I knew it. When they were asking me where we met, and I couldn't remember, I was like,
does that mean we're older just tired because we have young kids? Everything's foggy in general. But I know I've seen you sweaty at some point. I did not see you sweaty, but I did see this movie yesterday with Sunny. Yes. And your performance is absolutely mind-blowing. I walked out of there having like an existential deal with you. We were hugging each other and cheering. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. But when Steven Spielberg calls, it's something I can't... Sorry, why am I looking at you? You can relate. Do you just say hi and yes, or like, did you even have to see anything as scripture? Oh, I mean, he's so sweet and you'll meet with him. And he had a copy of Close Encounters on the table. Oh. And then you're just trying not to doke out in front of him. And then he'll say very gently, you know, just go away and read it and see if you can find your way into this character. I was like, it's a yes.
And I have no bargaining power with you. You know that. Oh, he's just so sweet, you know. Was that how you did it to you? I... He said, we were thinking about... I said, all right. Yeah, well, you know, I was on from the stage. I just stand up and he's asking me if I wanted to be a... Look at me. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. The genius director, right? Genius director. Genius director. Genius director. It is a fantastic, fantastic film, but I'm a sci-fi geek and so it was just everything, everything, everything. Y'all are going to love this movie. You play a TV meteorologist who ends up speaking in an alien tongue on television. We have a clip of it. Check this out. Let's... Today is... Today is... Yo. Steve. Steve. Oh, my God.
Steve. Steve. Steve. Steve, you're laughing. Yeah! You didn't say that to your live TV. I just don't get through stuff to read it. It's just like creepy. Yeah. It was just so incredible. And I read that you actually made those sounds yourself instead of letting AI use... I mean, there was an option that we could use a bit of AI to do it, but I went into this recording booth with Steven. And I mean, I can't obviously do all those sounds at the same time. They're like layered. But my voice memos were just full of creepy sounds that I sent to Steven for weeks before we went into the film. Do you speak Russian and Korean as well? Yeah. I mean, only in a very limited way, but what I learned, I had to learn it. She thinks she's speaking English. Yeah. She's speaking as I'm speaking to you now. That should be really... It happens to people when they have strokes sometimes. They think they're speaking and making sense and they don't understand why you don't understand them.
Yeah. And they're in the midst of it. But, you know, I am a big believer that aliens have been and continue to be among stars. Yes. You're coming. And, last week, a UFO whistleblower claimed that the government is aware of several different kinds of aliens. What do you think? I mean, look, I think we would be so arrogant to imagine we're alone in the universe. I think there are far more intelligent civilizations than us. Yeah. I think it's a very good... It would be so wonderful for this to be out there. Maybe it's time for us to feel appropriately small. Yes. It would be great for human beings to go, right, we have barely scratched the surface. But do you believe they're among us? I do. And I believe that since I was a little care. Really? I've always felt, yeah. Because you meet people in your life and you think, you're not of this... You're from somewhere else. And you don't mean it in a bad way.
And you don't carry it. It's just like, oh, I've never met anyone who can do it. And I think, one who can do this or be this. And so I think, why wouldn't you come and see what was here? Why wouldn't you keep an eye on, folks? And all of... How many planets there are in our sources? How many galaxies? How many galaxies? Galaxies. I mean, it's just so... I think if you could visit, you would visit. It's what we're trying to do. We're trying to go to the moon. Yeah. Yeah. But also, every visit that's happened or every sighting, it has not been hostile. It hasn't been violent. No. It's only in the movies, including the one my husband made. Yeah. Well, the aliens are like killing us, you know. I need to know if you know the answer to this question because your big boss on this movie, V. Steven Spielberg, very confidently on the news in the last week, was like, oh, yeah, aliens, absolutely. And I know he's besties with our former president, Barack Obama. Yeah.
And if you remember a few months ago, was like, oh, yeah, aliens are real, and see him, and then was like, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I had to walk him back. And I'm like, Steven Spielberg seems real confident. What does he know? What do you think he's feeling? He says he's not need to know. So he does not need to know. He does not need to know. And I don't know if the presidents need to know. That's kind of a lie. Because there are essentially civilians considering an event, I don't know. I actually, I probably wanted to part my metalizing president's out of it. If you see the age of disclosure, the documentary, it explains why presidents actually... Because essentially up to eight years, they are civilians. They're civilians, exactly. Yeah. The scientists and experts need to help. Yeah. Steven's theory, sorry, I totally love. Steven's theory is that it's not even government. It's deep state tech companies. Wow. Away from the Pentagon. Ooh, I want to get in that building so bad. Oh, that's so bad. But you want to see the spacecraft? Yes. They may not make you back out. You do know that that's a front. Area 51.
It's made us do exactly what we do. Talk about it and want to see it. That's not where any of this is. It's not where we're right. It is somewhere. Do you know where it is? No. I don't know what we'll be known. It's what we need to know. Right? You need to know. Maybe. We're going to come back with more with Emily Blum. Thank you. Please give us a round of applause, and we'll see what happens. Damn it. So they will be joining us. Yes, but it's getting that scene. Right? We are going to give some really good performances to了. Daniel Potts and Stephanie Anderson are going to hands it to the air when you say that. he's nervous either because the radio is awesome or be cool- maybe as you like, right. Have a mind out loud, everyone. We've got every single star who can play your games in the And also, that's a little blood blockbuster, like incredible. And I hear your daughters enjoy it. You have a nine year old and a 12 year old. Yes. Do they think you're cool? Are you the cool mom? Do they appreciate your character?
I wouldn't say cool. I think they think I'm horrible in it. They think I'm so mean. They think I'm the meanest, but I mean you're very cool. Are you? You are. She's the meanest person I like. I think my younger one was actually quite sad that I didn't get the gig at the end. She was like, I just feel bad that you're working at coach. I said, why is she deserves a fool from Grace? It's good. It's a good thing. And I have to ask both the original and two have so many iconic lines from your character. What is most commonly quoted back to you? Anything about cheese? We'll come back to you. That will come back to me. One story. One story. We go away. Which guy's is true? It is true. But the writer heard someone say that. And so, heard someone say it on the street and put it in. Oh my god. It's perfect. Now, you've also recently got a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Yes. And so, you share the honor with your brother-in-law and devil-worsh product of his family, Tucci.
So what did this mean to you? And is it true that your husband, John Krasinski, was like tearing up the whole time? John tears up a lot, so it doesn't take much. But yeah, it was a really cool thing to do it with the two. She was very cool. And you had quite the endorsement with your speakers. You had Dwayne the Rock Johnson, Robert Downey Jr. We're not done yet. Meryl Streep. Oh my god. Matt Damon? Yes. Were you wrapped for time? I mean, they were all, there was a bit of a kind of one-upmanship in the text chain I had with all of them talking about the order. Downey wanted to go last. OK. I think he knew there was a mic drop coming. And then he said to everyone, no one do a play on her last name, because that is my entire speech. No one even mentioned her last name. Amazing. They're very sweet. It meant a lot. Congratulations. Congratulations. Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much for the table. It's always a pleasure to have you.
