The devastating floods in Texas have claimed over 100 lives with dozens still missing, while political debates rage about FEMA funding and disaster response effectiveness.
• Water levels rose 29 feet in just 45 minutes, leaving little warning time
• Trump administration quickly responded with military aid when requested
• Controversy over FEMA funding cuts and allegations of fund misappropriation
• Military recruitment numbers improving with both Army and Air Force meeting goals
• Proposed new Air Force dress uniform draws criticism for resemblance to historical German uniforms
• Future warfare technology focusing on robotics, AI, and reducing human casualties
• Drone technology transforming modern warfare with relatively inexpensive systems
• Proposed national missile defense system could cost between $161-542 billion over 20 years
• Questions about electrical grid vulnerability to EMP attacks remain unaddressed

Texas Floods and Disaster Response
Speaker 1All right, Russ, you had something to say.
Speaker 2About. Well anyway, just kidding. Well anyway, listen, I guess there's a big flood going on in Texas over there, A lot of things going on. I guess how many people now are dead presumably?
Speaker 1Over 100 dead and dozens missing.
Speaker 2Yeah, there was 27 kids out of camp and I guess, uh, they found some of them. The last I knew there was about 10 still missing. But yeah, there's a lot more people still missing. Anyway, it's still going on. All I heard about it was uh the other day was that it was uh, 29 inches? No, yeah, 29 feet of water came within 45 minutes. They had 29 feet high of the water raising. They had that in 45 minutes. So I guess, it wasn't much of a warning or anything.
Speaker 2So it looks like a real mess over there.
Speaker 1Yeah, then I guess there was a senator that asked for military aid if needed or no, no it was. I think Trump said to the senator whatever you need, just ask. And then the senator requested for military aid, like Blackhawks and all that or whatever.
Speaker 2Probably Guard.
Speaker 1And I guess the administration quickly responded and sent down the necessary military aid probably guard, maybe federal troops, I don't know. But that's it. So it's not just, it's not just FEMA on the ground we're getting. They're getting military aid also for humanitarian.
Speaker 2Yeah, Well, of course the Democrats. It's Trump's fault. I guess he was up there making it rain out. I don't know.
Speaker 1They're mad because of the spending cuts to FEMA.
Speaker 2Yeah, but they still got FEMA. Fema's supposed to be just controlled by the states now or something. That's all. I don't think he's not going to worry about that. They're not going to let those people hang over there. They ain't like Biden.
Speaker 1They're worried about the reason why the cuts were made to begin with is because, on one side, they felt that the money for FEMA was being mismanaged.
Speaker 3So one of the people on Twitter or X. His name is Ron Filipkowski. He's this big asshole. He runs around with the bunch of just dirty liberals. They're just not good people. This is what he wrote. The people in Texas voted for is controlled by Donald Trump and Greg Abbott. This is exactly what they're getting. That's right.
Speaker 1Yeah, and that.
Speaker 3And then another guy wrote Just some guy. Bill G underscore 933 on X. It's not awful, it's what Texas deserves, it's insane. Well, that's.
Speaker 2That's just sick bastards. Who deserves that, you know?
Speaker 1And that's why I bastards who deserves that people are bitching about is they feel that it's because of climate change and environmental reasons and they're mad at the Republicans for not taking climate change serious enough and the Trump administration basically deregulating EPA requirements and standards and not focusing on fucking green alternative deregulating EPA requirements and standards, not focusing on fucking green alternative energy sources, et cetera. That's the other. So they feel like, oh, the floods are a product of climate change, so that's another thing people are pissy about.
Speaker 2Yeah, well, it's just another disaster like any other disaster. So what are you going to do? The difference is they are going to get the help. You already know that he's not going to let anybody hang over there, like somebody we know did so. Anyway, they're just pissed off that he won. They can't get over it. So they got to whine like a bunch of little fucking schoolgirls.
Speaker 3Oh yeah, they're all red Republicans so there's no thing to serve. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1Just like the allegations from the Biden administration, leaving counties in North Carolina that voted for Trump hanging in the dust during the fucking floods. I mean, that's pretty fucked up if it's true.
Speaker 2Yeah, just like booty juice took forever to go down to that disaster. Remember how many days did it take?
Speaker 1them to get down there, palestine, palestine.
Speaker 3Oh yeah.
Speaker 2Whatever it was the train thing.
Speaker 1And then people also felt the thing. The other thing about People felt Because Maui was a fucking train wreck, but the other thing, that People are pissed off about FEMA and we had friends in the family that Worked for FEMA for many years. You have FEMA, I got a FEMA, I got two femurs. Hey, the biggest bone in your body, there's a lot to it, man.
Speaker 2They have to set up a whole command center. All kinds of stuff they do. There's a lot to it. They do the best they can do for the situation. It's when they don't get sent down there when it becomes a problem like what Biden did but also a lot of the funds they allegedly were misappropriated that were supposed to go to FIMA the money that was sent to them was the money that was sent to FIMA to fund the department allegedly was the
FEMA Funding Controversies
Speaker 2illegal immigrants was misappropriated and they, you know, allegedly with a lot of it. No, it was the illegal immigrants. It sucked the money dry.
Speaker 1It was misappropriate yeah.
Speaker 2Right. Is that what that?
Speaker 1Yeah, I can't remember because it was a while back.
Speaker 2The allegations yeah, it was that. Yeah, they ran it dry yeah.
Speaker 1And then the fucking oh yeah, yeah, because they had to put people up in fucking hotels and shit in New York.
Speaker 2Yeah, for $500 a night.
Speaker 1Yeah, they used the fucking FEMA funds. That's right. I forgot all about that.
Speaker 3They didn't care. They didn't care then.
Speaker 2They didn't care. Well, this won't be the last one, they're losers.
Speaker 1There's going to be other ones, believe me.
Speaker 2Hurricane season's coming, they're not sending their best.
Speaker 3They don't know what they're doing.
Speaker 1That's the way they were. It's a bad embrace.
Speaker 2That's what they were doing.
Speaker 1But there'll be other hurricanes coming up pretty soon. So FEMA? Yeah, so when the people in North Carolina needed FEMA's help, they were fucking broke. But the other thing that and this has been a this has been a controversy since hurricane katrina they feel that fema has become too powerful and too controlling during, um, emergency disasters. Uh, we had controversies during hurricane, katrina and then Maui, like, for instance. There were some people and so one example was there was a Connex box full of water, water aid.
Speaker 2Right, they wouldn't let them deliver it.
Speaker 1Well, they delivered it, but I don't know Somebody else.
Speaker 1No, no, no, no, no. Somebody I don't know. I don't know somebody else. No, no, no, no. Somebody I don't know is I don't know how, I don't know who, but somebody donated it for aid. It was a whole conics box full of water that made it there and fema locked it up and prevented people from access to the water, and the people didn't really have any water around them. Fema said we can't let you drink this water because it hasn't been tested and vetted through us. So, um, that was a fucking, that was a fucked up situation because, if I remember correctly, the people didn't have a whole lot of access to drinking water at the time and that one source of you know I mean it was unverified, but it was fucking water fema wouldn't allow them to.
Speaker 1I'm going around in circles, but you get the point. So there's there's there's controversies, that people feel that fema has gotten too powerful and too overbearing.
Speaker 2Um in that it's all gonna get straightened out. Now, though, though I believe that yeah, so you know and— they got the right administration in there that cares.
Speaker 1So changes have been made to FEMA and we'll see going forward. What happened before—and what people don't know is FEMA was created by JFK, so before that, a lot of this— it's kind of like the department of education, like you had like a civil emergency patrol of people. People would handle this at their local and state levels. Um, they'd have you know little, uh, civil emergency squads and whatever, and they would typically be funded by the communities and these things would be handled. These disaster matters would be handled at the state and local county levels and such. And then you know the whole idea, obviously. You know he authorized this department. You know he authorized this department. Now it's federally funded and they can go anywhere in the country and, you know, in emergency situations, blah, blah, blah.
Speaker 2All right, let's cover it off for that now. So let's go something more positive, like the military. Hiv A lot of people recruiting now, so it's getting up there. I guess they're getting up on.
Speaker 1HIV positive.
Military Recruitment Success
Speaker 2They're coming. Yeah Well, guess they're getting up on HIV positive. They're coming. Yeah Well, they're coming in the military now they're getting their quotas, they're getting their quotas. So things are looking good. Starting to straighten it out.
Speaker 3All right, yeah, recruiting stuff.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2The Army met its recruiting goals. The Air Force is all up too.
Speaker 1The Army met their recruiting quota quarters before the deadline Quota, quota quota quarters. I said many quarters before deadline.
Speaker 2Yeah, whatever. Anyway, even the Air Force did too. Yeah, what are they at Asshole what they all? Even the Air Force did too yeah what are they at Asshole?
Speaker 3What are they? The Air Force?
Speaker 1I guess their number was at 100% was 6,549 yeah, that's good that they and the air, yeah, well you get a reserve. So far those two opponents for the army was over 12 000, and that's 100 the goal was uh 12 060 and they made up 12 569 wow, yeah that's good so that's good so far for the Army and the Air Force, and then I guess the Air Force is thinking about creating a new dress uniform too.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, I didn't hear that one.
Speaker 1It looks snazzy.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2What they got? The same one for years.
Speaker 3I know they have the PC3.
Speaker 2Are you talking about utilities or a dress uniform?
Speaker 1Dress uniform. What else can they do?
Speaker 2What's it going to be? Jumpsuit.
Speaker 1No, it kind of looks futuristic. It's short.
Speaker 2Where did you see that? How, how, I mean yeah where did you hear that? I didn't hear nothing like that.
Speaker 1I've seen it. On what was it my old VFW commander posted on Facebook. But let's see.
Speaker 2Go find it and send it to me. I want to see it Futuristic.
Speaker 3How can they do it?
Speaker 2in a dress uniform. Being futuristic, it's like a suit, don't it?
Speaker 1We got to verify it.
Speaker 2Yeah, that's for sure. Verify, clarify.
Speaker 3The US Army is transitioning to the Army Green Terps.
Speaker 2Hey, I got one that'll take us some time. Go ahead and try to get that thing if you want to come back to it. I got a funny story I can tell you ready. I got from popular demand from Henderson Harley. They wanted me to tell this on air what you were there, jake, what you heard the story, what about the VA? The VA.
Speaker 1You just pivoted completely like 360.
Speaker 2Yeah, because you're going to go look something up. You're going to be gone. You're going to be gone.
Speaker 1How the fuck did I know what you were talking about? You fucking did a 360, man.
Speaker 2Because you were there, we talked about it.
Speaker 1We're talking about a fucking dress uniform and a new one no you said you're going to go look it up.
Speaker 2I said while you're doing that.
Speaker 1I'm going to tell a story. Well, go ahead and tell your story From Henderson Harley.
Speaker 2You weren't there when he said that, when he said you should tell that on the podcast.
Speaker 1Yes, you were. What I'm saying is Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2I'm trying to go into a new subject, that's fine, we're whipping this one to death.
Speaker 1I know what I was saying is we're talking about one thing and the next thing. I know you're talking about this other fucking.
Speaker 2No, you're pissed off. No, I didn't talk about it, I said while you're looking that up.
Speaker 3You're pissed. You know what? Forget the story, go ahead.
Speaker 1Ramble on, you're pissed off. Ramble on about nothing, go ahead.
Speaker 2Got about five minutes of rambling bullshit now and you're pissed off that I'm confused. No, because I said you said you're going to go look it up. I said while you're looking it up, I'm going to tell a story.
Speaker 1That's what I said. Then, all of a sudden, you got to make an issue out of it Because you got fucking pissy with me.
Speaker 2That's why.
Speaker 1No, I didn't. I said, while you're going to look it up, I'm going to tell a story.
Speaker 2What's pissy? You're the pisser.
Speaker 1I wasn't paying attention to that. I was trying to look up tempered pants.
Speaker 2No, you said to me oh, I didn't do that, so are you talking about the AGSU?
Speaker 1Because I was doing the fucking dressing uniform.
Speaker 3You're talking about the ASUs right, we're talking about strictly for like formal.
Speaker 1Yeah, but I'm fucking right, we're talking about the dress uniform.
Speaker 2Like you know, you're.
Speaker 3I get that. I get that Jake are you talking? About the formals. Yeah, I don't see anything for the.
Speaker 1ASU.
Speaker 2I've heard people saying that they're the service uniform, the one you get dressed up when you have an inspection For the Air Force the. Air Force is supposed to be getting a new dress uniform you just said before.
Speaker 1Allegedly.
Speaker 2Oh, now it's allegedly.
Speaker 3New uniform. Well, I know, from what I understand, they're going to try to sir outside of the Pentagon and all that. Everybody's going to be wearing OCP still, but inside I think they're going to be wearing the HGSU for the Army. I don't know what to do.
Speaker 1Cool, yeah, cool. But yeah, I'm talking about the Air Force dress uniform, the new one they're proposing, apparently.
Air Force Dress Uniform Mockup
Speaker 3Here are the new—oh, that's not—. Hmm, yeah, where is it? So where is it? I don't even know what the hell they're called.
Speaker 2Dress uniform. For Christ's sake.
Speaker 1Air Force dress uniform.
Speaker 2They're dressed in a blue uniform.
Speaker 1Air Force dress uniform. Yeah, Air Force dress uniform. They wear like a.
Speaker 2Your Army dress uniform is green now Because you went back to World War II.
Speaker 3That pisses me off, Anyways. So so they're changing the dress uniform. Is that their everyday?
Speaker 1Is that?
Speaker 3their uniform from the office.
Speaker 1No.
Speaker 2No, it's the one they wear when they dress up. Everyday uniform is your like the Army, wore it ASUs or OCPs, marine Corps, they're called utilities. That's your everyday uniform, your work uniform. Then you got your dress uniform. When you dress up Like you're going to go home to a, you're going to get married in your dress uniform, you get it. Yeah, the Air Force is always blue. I'm going to get married in my underwear.
Speaker 2Their uniform was always blue, their dress uniform. So what would be the difference? Now it's going to be space uniform now or future?
Speaker 1Yeah, it looks like spacey futuristic. It's going to be space or a future. It looks like spacey futuristic. It's got an up collar like the Marines.
Speaker 2What up collar, the leather neck.
Speaker 1It's not like a leather, it wouldn't be, I don't think, a leather neck.
Speaker 2No, I know it's just going to look that way.
Speaker 3Oh, I think I'm looking at it. I just sent the fucking text message. The StreamYard.
Speaker 1Yeah, I sent it like five minutes ago, I don't see it.
Speaker 2How did you see it? I can't see it.
Speaker 1You have to go to your text message. You didn't even tell us that, but anyway.
Speaker 2What text message?
Speaker 3Yeah, I'm looking at it now online, it looks pretty goofy.
Speaker 2My text message message yeah, where is?
Speaker 1it I figured you guys would have heard your phones go up you didn't send me shit, so I didn't say anything, sorry I'm on my text message.
Speaker 2I don't see nothing.
Speaker 1You gotta go to the group text. Go to the fucking group text. What else is fucking new? Oh, it's so hard, oh boohoo it is actually.
Speaker 2I'm hitting on the thing, but I ain't seeing it. It ain't there. I hit my Texas and I can't get it because that stupid box that's on the air is in the way. That's why I can't see it.
Speaker 3I can't get out of it.
Speaker 2I can't get out of it All I have is my regular text stuff. No, it ain't there.
Speaker 1You fucking shit me guys, it's not in the fucking group text.
Speaker 2I'm literally looking at it right now. Send it to my what the no, because I can't get it.
Speaker 1The box is in the way you can't get to it. What the fuck.
Speaker 2Oh well me a break.
Speaker 3That's your new one.
Speaker 2It looks like a Nazi. The only thing he's missing is the two fucking SS, fucking lightning bolts. Yeah, I don't like it. Yeah, it looks like Captain Kangaroo it looks like a Nazi uniform. Don't know, I can't remember.
Speaker 1So you're calling Captain Kangaroo.
Speaker 2I think, he was.
Speaker 1You're calling Captain Kangaroo a Nazi. That's fucked up. You know what it is.
Speaker 2It's because they made the line Go down with the buttons white and the white rim is all the way around, that's why?
Speaker 1I don't know what do you gotta change it to Captain KK Kangaroo. They look like a fucking bellhop.
Speaker 3Yeah, I don't like those. They look stupid. Nah, I don't like those. Prototype is no good.
Speaker 2US yeah, that's no good.
Speaker 3Oh no, there's no devil in this, that sucks.
Speaker 2Now, is that white or silver? You think the buttons are probably silver color, but is that white band that goes all the way around the bottom and the edge of the epaulets? Is that white or is that silver it? Still would look fucked up. It looks like a.
Speaker 1Nazi uniform. It's a Luftwaffe, the Luftwaffe uniform.
Speaker 2Yeah, that don't look good.
Speaker 3Because I saw a different picture that looks a little.
Speaker 2Yeah, Huh no. I don't think so Well that ain't Vogue Indian, is it?
Speaker 3Oh God, Never mind that's.
Speaker 2You see now the other thing, the style of that jacket.
Speaker 3So it does look like a Marie jacket.
Speaker 2Yeah, when we're in our dress blues. You know we don't have those ribs on, but it looks like that style popped collar because it's a. It's a real neat style. It's like very easy to keep it neat instead of you don't have to tie a tie. You know what I'm saying, you know? But but it looks like a nazi. The collars make it look like it's a nazi uniform. Yeah, dog, but it looks like a Nazi the colors make it look like it's a Nazi uniform.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Fucking Luftwaffe dog, yeah, really flying high into the wild blue, yeah, into the wild blue incinerator. Screw that Well. Anyway, I guess we got. I got to try to get my other thing back on.
Speaker 1Oh there it is, am I still there?
Speaker 2Oh, okay, I got it. I clicked on it. At least I seen what it looked like. I don't like the way it looks though I mean. The only thing I don't like about it Is that white rim all the way around everything.
Speaker 1I don't like the way you look.
Future Warfare Technology
Speaker 2And I don't give the way you look and I don't give a fuck what you like. Yeah, anyway, alright, so you looked the picture up. That was it Next. So we got good recruitment in. They're building up, they're going to be building more ships. More planes, all kinds of crap.
Speaker 1You wanted to talk Besides building the military. It's more of an emphasis on upgrading and modernizing the military, less troops's. More of an emphasis on upgrading and modernizing the military, less troops but you.
Speaker 3What do you think? Less troops, Modernizing it by less troops?
Speaker 2Well we're supposed to be adding ships and planes.
Speaker 1We don't want to add more drones. Submarines, submarines, robotic dogs, robotic tanks, fucking. Hey, if we can get a platoon of robotic dogs, robotic dogs and robotic planes and just everything, just robots.
Speaker 3That'd be pretty legit.
Speaker 1Yeah, we are dogs, we're fucking. In other words, you're saying everything, not man, we're army dogs yeah.
Speaker 2Everything, not man.
Speaker 3Because if we could eliminate the human aspect of infantry, that'd be great. Yeah, everything, not man. Because if we could eliminate the human aspect of infantry, that would be great yeah we heard that. So if we get the human aspect of the military, would that be a good thing?
Speaker 2I don't know, it could be good and bad, because technology can end up giving somebody an edge if they're better at it than the next one is than the next person, or enemy, you know. I think always in the end you're going to have to have a kind of conventional warfare anyway. What are you going to do?
Speaker 1You know, somebody's got to go in there and mop up. On one hand it's better to yeah it'll be to send robots in to get blown up than sending people in to blow up and die. So you know, I mean it's good like that. But the part about the robots potentially turn against us, that's another problem.
Speaker 2It'll be a little bit of both probably.
Speaker 1It's going to be human and robotic. Right now it's going to be blended, so fortunately it will spare the lives of a certain amount of humans. We won't be as heavily dependent on human beings and or animals as much in warfare. We'll have robotic companions, so that's good.
Speaker 3What about drones?
Speaker 1We have to be.
Speaker 2They got drones now.
Speaker 1Drones is one thing, but artificial intelligence we definitely have to keep an eye on.
Speaker 2No, what the new future soldier is going to be like. This is what he's going to be like. He's going to have an armor suit on, he's going to be all inside of an armor shell to protect him from getting hit, and all kinds of different stuff. Yeah, power armor, you know all that PSYOP stuff, all the stuff the helicopter pilots got in their helmet, exoskeleton. They're going to have all that special weapons but they're going to be inside of an armor suit Power armor.
Speaker 3Exoskeleton? Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1Precisely who Power armor exoskeleton battle suits.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, that's it.
Speaker 1It'll basically be the futuristic version of Knights in Shining armor.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, they can make them run faster. Bullets in pants, all kinds of things.
Speaker 3Carry a bigger load, you'll have a machine pretty much running carrying the weight.
Speaker 1Well, you know look, the Rangers experimented with these fucking struts, these metal struts, and then they step into and it actually gives them the ability to carry a lot more weight as it is right now.
Speaker 3Exoskeletons. I wonder what would happen, you know, like five years after they stop using it. Will they just freaking, crumble their bodies? I don't know. That's the worst part.
Speaker 2I don't know.
Speaker 3The effect on a human if they do that, because at the end of the day, you're still carrying it.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's like going out of space when you're in there for so many days. It can screw up your eyes, your visions and everything else.
Speaker 1I think it depends.
Speaker 2Because they're weightless and it causes other medical problems. I think it depends. It could.
Speaker 1I think it depends. On the one hand, it's going to prevent a lot of wear and tear on the joints, on the other hand, uh and and well, I mean, don't get me wrong I would think by you know like, especially at the end of the day, it's you're not likely, is it possible, you'll be rocking those 24 in a 24 hour period. During a mission, perhaps, but a lot of the time at the end of the day, when you're recuperating, let's say for the night, you would think they'd be taking those off to get some R&R, the rest to sleep, but who knows? Yeah.
Speaker 2They'll figure it out. They'll be testing it. They're probably testing it now.
Speaker 3It's crazy because it's like watching all these videos from Ukraine. They're using these like $35 fucking drones and they're using them to do all. We're talking about guys that are just amazing at you know, controlling drones, Just sitting there dropping grenades on people.
Speaker 1Let's send the robots in. Send the robots in To fuck shit up. And if the drone gets blown up, who gives a shit? It's not a human life.
Speaker 2Well, they were saying Even China now China has a has a dragonfly drone that's big as a dragonfly and it's all kinds of shit you know.
Speaker 1Wow.
Speaker 2It does. You know, it could go blow something up A little teeny, the size of a dragonfly.
Speaker 3Yeah, and it looks like that. Just put a little CG4 on it and just have it. Yeah, they're fucking.
Speaker 2Yeah, they're a little sneaky bastards, you know. Oh, you can see they're going to be putting chemical shit in there. You know, chemical fucking diseases.
Speaker 3Would that be a World War III with China, you think?
Speaker 2They said I guess, if you survive it who knows?
Speaker 1ISIS was fucking putting grenades on fucking drones and dropping them on fucking bases. They've been doing shit like that already.
Speaker 3Yeah, it's just so crazy. How well you know like the fucking loon.
Speaker 1I was saying it's like the fucking the way they were. I was saying it's like the fucking the way they're using drones. It was like the fucking looney tunes well, look at all of the um.
Speaker 3Like the olympics, remember, did their drone uh display or whatever it was. All that is all done by a computer and all they have to do is just do. They just send a swarm of 300 drones at a time. It's crazy yeah.
Speaker 2Right or more?
Speaker 3Thousands. Yeah, that would decimate an entire base almost you would think right.
Speaker 2And they don't have to be that big. They could be like five, six inches bigger.
Speaker 1That's what they're used to.
Speaker 2Depends on what it has on it. That's what Ukraine, how powerful the explosive is on it. It even could be nuclear. That's what it even could have a certain amount of nuclear inside these things.
Speaker 1That's what fucking Ukraine did with all those Russian fighter jets. They sent in a small swarm of drones, in Little drones to blow up big-ass fighter planes.
Speaker 2That was pretty crazy, right.
Speaker 1Like nothing, like it was nothing.
Drone Warfare and Defense Systems
Speaker 2So it's getting pretty technical already. It's going to get more advanced in time too. I can't wait to see this. I can't wait to see the golden dome that they're going to be building. Is it $29 million or a billion? What was it? I forget the Iron Dome.
Speaker 1Not the.
Speaker 2Iron Dome. It's going to be the golden dome. Was it $40? That he's going to use to protect the country? Was it 40 million? I can't wait to see what that fucking thing's going to look like Was it 44 million, I can't remember. I don't know. It was a lot, though I can't remember.
Speaker 1Billion. It ain't going to be million, it'll be billion. I meant 44 million.
Speaker 3What they're saying is Sorry.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3Whatever it is. No, no, I'm sorry. So the Iron Dome alone is 50 million, so it's called a golden dome.
Speaker 2I call because it's the best. It should be the best in the world.
Speaker 1It's called a golden shower hey, jake.
Speaker 2Jake, tell him, what did Trump say is going to be the best? Go ahead, my dome is the best dome. There's no other dome like my dome. It's fantastic. What color is it? It's gold. I seen it.
