Okay, enough about all that stuff. I really, I just want to get hit the ground running. So let's get it started.

We got a lot going on. I want to start off with this. These stories I don't get. They don't, they're supposedly public servants, right?

But this, this story broke late yesterday and you sit there and you go, this is, this is real. Why did people do?

I get why people don't want to do this, but then you, you kind of have to resign, right? You got to leave the job.

ABC news. You've all the police school districts no longer cooperating with Texas probe of shooting.

Reached by ABC news, a spokesperson for the Texas Department of Public Safety said, quote, the Uvalde Police Department and the Uvalde CISD police have been cooperating with investigators.

There's the chief of the Uvalde CISD police provided an initial interview, but has not responded to a request for a follow-up interview with the Texas Rangers that was made two days ago.

They're done. They're done. They're done. They're done. It's not just the police in general, the police chief who is on the payroll.

He's on the pitch. He should not. He has a job. He has a, no, no, let me put it another way. He has a duty.
