Already. So its not like were just making up for things. We actually could have a chance to do something on perhaps broadband, roads, bridges. You name it. Wastewater treatment plants. And you talk about a rural agenda, a state thats a pretty rural state, that would be a big step if we started working on that. How we pay for it, there is some interest in overseas money, trillions of dollars that are overseas. Senator schumer, our leader, has been devoted to this for a long time. I am, as well. And that is finding some way to bring that money back from overseas. It wont be i will say it will be a bit controversial on our side. But finding a way to bring the money back. And then what you could do, if companies voluntarily bring the money back with a rate that we have enough votes to pass, you could then, as part of the deal, have a certain percentage of it go into either an infrastructure Financing Authority. I dont call it an Infrastructure Bank because that creates problems on your sid
The credible evidence points to the fact that Keith Lamont Scott was armed despite what we heard from scotts wife when she yelled out to officers just before the shots rang out in the parking lot of the familys apartment complex. Let me play the video for you. Just a reminder, its very disturbing to watch. Drop the gun. Keith, dont do it. Drop the gun keith, get out the car keith, keith, dont you do it dont you do it keith, keith keith dont you do it. [ gunshots ] did you shoot him . Did you shoot him . Did you shoot him .

Indecency. For years shes been a villain to the right. I think the message says it all. Fire nancy pelosi. Crazy nancy. Shes lost it. Today shes emerged as the president s most formidable rival. You said the most unfortunate thing. We came in here in good faith. Its a relationship like two boxers in a ring. She instinctively knows how to handle this guy. How did nancy pelosi hone the political skill that is allowed her to become such an enduring figure . On this headliners, my one on one with the speaker of the house. Is he fit to be president .
