This is National Works Zone Awareness Week.

I'm a victim of being ran over by a semi-while flagging.

The person wasn't paying attention, and they hit me with their vehicle.

I've seen an accident where we were the first people to walk up, and that picture will never leave my mind.

I've seen the people get hit before.

It's been horrible.

Construction zones on roadways and bridges are more than just cones and equipment.

They're the workplace for thousands of dedicated union laborers. Everybody has a family that they need to get back home to, so please just pay attention to us out here while we're working. We all have family, and I know it's a pain in the ass. We're trying to make the roads better for y'all. We're doing this for everyone. We're hardworking Hoosiers, just like you, and we all want to make it home safely. People would just take a couple seconds to pay attention. Be aware where we're at, where the cone zones are at. We're all in this together, and we're all just trying to be safe. This is Brian Short, business manager for the Indiana Labor's District Council. Everyone deserves a safe place to work. Do your part in the cone zone. Slow down, save a

life. We're all in this together. A message from Labor's International Union of North America and

affiliated locals. We have so much to talk about and to help us do it.

We have former FBI special agent.

Corey Grass, joining us in the studio as he does every Wednesday at this time.

20 years in counterterrorism, 20 years in counterintelligence.

Corey, thank you so much for being here today.

And I want to start off. We have to talk

about what is going on with the current FBI director, Cash Patel. He is suing the Atlantic

over a report alleging that he is involved in excessive drinking and also absences. He had a press

conference yesterday.

So before we get your response, let's hear from Cash Patel.

And beyond that, can you say definitively that you have not been intoxicated or absent during

your tenure as FBI director?

I can say unequivocally that I never listen to the fake news mafia.
