You know that the challenge is is 420 00:14:07,001 --> 00:14:08,301 know that the challenge is is is climate deniers have gone 421 00:14:08,301 --> 00:14:10,034 is climate deniers have gone from. It’s not happening to 422 00:14:10,034 --> 00:14:11,669 from. It’s not happening to some of them are now saying 423 00:14:11,669 --> 00:14:12,335 some of them are now saying well it’s happening, but we 424 00:14:12,335 --> 00:14:14,067 well it’s happening, but we can’t do anything about it. Not 425 00:14:14,067 --> 00:14:15,535 can’t do anything about it. Not really feeding into it too. 426 00:14:15,535 --> 00:14:17,334 really feeding into it too. now, it’s too expensive to do 427 00:14:17,334 --> 00:14:18,067 now, it’s too expensive to do anything and what we’re really 428 00:14:18,067 --> 00:14:19,034 anything and what we’re really seeing around the country and 429 00:14:19,034 --> 00:14:21,535 seeing around the country and around the world is the cost of 430 00:14:21,535 --> 00:14:22,901 around the world is the cost of being climate deniers is 431 00:14:22,901 --> 00:14:23,868 being climate deniers is actually growing in comparison 432 00:14:23,868 --> 00:14:25,135 actually growing in comparison to actually doing something 433 00:14:25,135 --> 00:14:27,367 to actually doing something about it. I just think as we 434 00:14:27,367 --> 00:14:28,368 about it. I just think as we move into the next level, 435 00:14:28,368 --> 00:14:30,067 move into the next level, especially our energy grid, We 436 00:14:30,067 --> 00:14:31,734 especially our energy grid, We need a great infrastructure 437 00:14:31,734 --> 00:14:33,601 need a great infrastructure plan to completely redo our 438 00:14:33,601 --> 00:14:34,867 plan to completely redo our energy grid and bring a lot 439 00:14:34,867 --> 00:14:37,334 energy grid and bring a lot more um I would say uh clean 440 00:14:37,334 --> 00:14:39,001 more um I would say uh clean energy to everybody around the 441 00:14:39,001 --> 00:14:39,934 energy to everybody around the country and I think there’s 442 00:14:39,934 --> 00:14:41,334 country and I think there’s some interesting things that I 443 00:14:41,334 --> 00:14:42,067 some interesting things that I think will be happening in the 444 00:14:42,067 --> 00:14:42,934 think will be happening in the future here that we’ll be able 445 00:14:42,934 --> 00:14:44,901 future here that we’ll be able to take. You know, I don’t know 446 00:14:44,901 --> 00:14:47,068 to take. You know, I don’t know about cold fusion, but you know 447 00:14:47,068 --> 00:14:48,301 about cold fusion, but you know just room room temperature 448 00:14:48,301 --> 00:14:49,867 just room room temperature super conducting battery 449 00:14:49,867 --> 00:14:51,269 super conducting battery capabilities. all these things 450 00:14:51,269 --> 00:14:52,469 capabilities. all these things are gonna gonna gonna give us 451 00:14:52,469 --> 00:14:53,934 are gonna gonna gonna give us the ability to redo things, but 452 00:14:53,934 --> 00:14:55,934 the ability to redo things, but we have to start investing now 453 00:14:55,934 --> 00:14:56,966 we have to start investing now because and I think that we 454 00:14:56,966 --> 00:14:59,300 because and I think that we don’t have til 2050. I really 455 00:14:59,300 --> 00:15:01,135 don’t have til 2050. I really think that we need to target by 456 00:15:01,135 --> 00:15:03,434 think that we need to target by 2035 unless we wanna leave this 457 00:15:03,434 --> 00:15:04,801 2035 unless we wanna leave this problem to our children and 458 00:15:04,801 --> 00:15:05,834 problem to our children and grandchildren and and and you 459 00:15:05,834 --> 00:15:07,401 grandchildren and and and you know just like the federal debt 460 00:15:07,401 --> 00:15:08,535 know just like the federal debt if we don’t start doing 461 00:15:08,535 --> 00:15:09,335 if we don’t start doing something now, we’re just 462 00:15:09,335 --> 00:15:11,001 something now, we’re just leaving them our problems 463 00:15:11,001 --> 00:15:14,034 leaving them our problems because we were too we just.

I mean in Florida uh obviously 1570 00:49:58,132 --> 00:49:59,732 mean in Florida uh obviously you’ve got uh these racial 1571 00:49:59,732 --> 00:50:01,999 you’ve got uh these racial pensions as well. um uh treyvon 1572 00:50:01,999 --> 00:50:05,098 pensions as well. um uh treyvon Martin uh and another half a 1573 00:50:05,098 --> 00:50:06,532 Martin uh and another half a dozen shootings in Florida.

A reopening uh DeSantis rush to 1576 00:50:11,667 --> 00:50:14,032 reopening uh DeSantis rush to reopen uh and now you’ve got 1577 00:50:14,032 --> 00:50:16,832 reopen uh and now you’ve got colleges and public schools 1578 00:50:16,832 --> 00:50:18,866 colleges and public schools high schools et cetera. Uh we 1579 00:50:18,866 --> 00:50:20,266 high schools et cetera. Uh we are in a difficult situation. 1580 00:50:20,266 --> 00:50:22,532 are in a difficult situation. It is like I got a friend who’s 1581 00:50:22,532 --> 00:50:24,899 It is like I got a friend who’s daughter is a freshman they 1582 00:50:24,899 --> 00:50:25,966 daughter is a freshman they they they wanna be a freshman 1583 00:50:25,966 --> 00:50:27,866 they they wanna be a freshman in college. They wanna go to 1584 00:50:27,866 --> 00:50:30,465 in college. They wanna go to school on the other hand as LSU 1585 00:50:30,465 --> 00:50:31,999 school on the other hand as LSU just announced almost every 1586 00:50:31,999 --> 00:50:32,833 just announced almost every football football player have 1587 00:50:32,833 --> 00:50:35,631 football football player have as we’re on a virus. So what do 1588 00:50:35,631 --> 00:50:37,466 as we’re on a virus. So what do we do here on both issues? I 1589 00:50:37,466 --> 00:50:39,031 we do here on both issues? I think there’s a couple of. We 1590 00:50:39,031 --> 00:50:40,099 think there’s a couple of. We have to realize is that the 1591 00:50:40,099 --> 00:50:41,764 have to realize is that the reason that it got so bad and 1592 00:50:41,764 --> 00:50:42,932 reason that it got so bad and the reason we’re in this spot 1593 00:50:42,932 --> 00:50:44,365 the reason we’re in this spot is because we were not prepared 1594 00:50:44,365 --> 00:50:46,733 is because we were not prepared as a country to prevent 1595 00:50:46,733 --> 00:50:47,966 as a country to prevent anything like this if we had 1596 00:50:47,966 --> 00:50:48,932 anything like this if we had universal broadband internet, 1597 00:50:48,932 --> 00:50:50,433 universal broadband internet, then we would have been fine 1598 00:50:50,433 --> 00:50:51,498 then we would have been fine having kids stay at home and be 1599 00:50:51,498 --> 00:50:52,232 having kids stay at home and be able able to actually do 1600 00:50:52,232 --> 00:50:54,232 able able to actually do learning a lot. but we don’t 1601 00:50:54,232 --> 00:50:55,066 learning a lot. but we don’t have that if we had universal 1602 00:50:55,066 --> 00:50:56,532 have that if we had universal health care, I mean, as we all 1603 00:50:56,532 --> 00:50:58,266 health care, I mean, as we all know if one person doesn’t have 1604 00:50:58,266 --> 00:50:59,200 know if one person doesn’t have health care in the middle of 1605 00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:00,399 health care in the middle of pandemic and everyone else is 1606 00:51:00,399 --> 00:51:01,631 pandemic and everyone else is at risk, we didn’t have these 1607 00:51:01,631 --> 00:51:03,832 at risk, we didn’t have these basic things that could prevent 1608 00:51:03,832 --> 00:51:05,533 basic things that could prevent everything from getting worse. 1609 00:51:05,533 --> 00:51:07,267 everything from getting worse. uh on top of the desperation 1610 00:51:07,267 --> 00:51:08,733 uh on top of the desperation that the pandemic has caused on 1611 00:51:08,733 --> 00:51:11,265 that the pandemic has caused on top of obviously. The job 1612 00:51:11,265 --> 00:51:12,132 top of obviously. The job losses all of everything else. 1613 00:51:12,132 --> 00:51:13,899 losses all of everything else. It’s just causing people to be 1614 00:51:13,899 --> 00:51:15,365 It’s just causing people to be more desperate and what that is 1615 00:51:15,365 --> 00:51:16,932 more desperate and what that is doing is that it is actually 1616 00:51:16,932 --> 00:51:17,667 doing is that it is actually exacerbating the way that 1617 00:51:17,667 --> 00:51:18,599 exacerbating the way that people feel about each other. 1618 00:51:18,599 --> 00:51:20,899 people feel about each other.

My 1914 01:00:25,564 --> 01:00:27,332 know I’ll be very honest. My husband got into the military 1915 01:00:27,332 --> 01:00:28,666 husband got into the military because he wanted to do 1916 01:00:28,666 --> 01:00:30,432 because he wanted to do something that was bigger than 1917 01:00:30,432 --> 01:00:31,399 something that was bigger than himself and he is a pilot and 1918 01:00:31,399 --> 01:00:32,333 himself and he is a pilot and he buys helicopters because he 1919 01:00:32,333 --> 01:00:34,799 he buys helicopters because he thinks it’s cool and he loves 1920 01:00:34,799 --> 01:00:36,465 thinks it’s cool and he loves his work.

I mean I would be really honest about it like 1923 01:00:39,133 --> 01:00:42,932 really honest about it like that man loves his job and he 1924 01:00:42,932 --> 01:00:46,132 that man loves his job and he has loved it um until recently 1925 01:00:46,132 --> 01:00:48,165 has loved it um until recently and it’s because. A commander 1926 01:00:48,165 --> 01:00:51,399 and it’s because. A commander in chief who does not value his 1927 01:00:51,399 --> 01:00:53,899 in chief who does not value his service and doesn’t value the 1928 01:00:53,899 --> 01:00:55,198 service and doesn’t value the service of the other of other 1929 01:00:55,198 --> 01:00:57,098 service of the other of other members of his unit um 1930 01:00:57,098 --> 01:00:59,433 members of his unit um especially members of the LGBTQ 1931 01:00:59,433 --> 01:01:01,032 especially members of the LGBTQ community. This president has 1932 01:01:01,032 --> 01:01:03,332 community. This president has said that their sacrifice and 1933 01:01:03,332 --> 01:01:04,733 said that their sacrifice and their service is not wanted and 1934 01:01:04,733 --> 01:01:05,966 their service is not wanted and that they shouldn’t even be in 1935 01:01:05,966 --> 01:01:09,832 that they shouldn’t even be in the military. I think that when 1936 01:01:09,832 --> 01:01:13,865 the military. I think that when you have leadership that fails 1937 01:01:13,865 --> 01:01:16,266 you have leadership that fails morally that fails objectively 1938 01:01:16,266 --> 01:01:20,399 morally that fails objectively that fails. You have a lot of 1939 01:01:20,399 --> 01:01:22,932 that fails. You have a lot of morale in the military and I 1940 01:01:22,932 --> 01:01:23,833 morale in the military and I think that our senior leaders 1941 01:01:23,833 --> 01:01:25,766 think that our senior leaders see that and to what Gary was 1942 01:01:25,766 --> 01:01:29,366 see that and to what Gary was saying to have people like 1943 01:01:29,366 --> 01:01:30,833 saying to have people like former Secretary of Defense 1944 01:01:30,833 --> 01:01:33,100 former Secretary of Defense Mattis come out and make those 1945 01:01:33,100 --> 01:01:34,366 Mattis come out and make those remarks. I think what they are 1946 01:01:34,366 --> 01:01:36,466 remarks. I think what they are seeing is that loss of morale 1947 01:01:36,466 --> 01:01:39,399 seeing is that loss of morale and it’s their attempt to let 1948 01:01:39,399 --> 01:01:41,732 and it’s their attempt to let the men and women in uniform. 1949 01:01:41,732 --> 01:01:43,732 the men and women in uniform. You know that their leadership 1950 01:01:43,732 --> 01:01:45,366 You know that their leadership values them even though what 1951 01:01:45,366 --> 01:01:47,066 values them even though what they’re hearing from the top, 1952 01:01:47,066 --> 01:01:50,300 they’re hearing from the top, says otherwise yup. Alright. Uh 1953 01:01:50,300 --> 01:01:51,766 says otherwise yup. Alright.
