All right, back on A Young Turks post game. I'm going to start with a member comment,

0:10.8

Crystal Ricein. It's getting cold. I could totally go for a TDR hoodie.

0:14.7

Maybe, yeah, maybe the next thing I shopped you at.com is not the next TDR shirt for the

0:24.2

TDR hoodie. Okay, so we'll look into it. Thank you, Crystal. So John, the cheeses work so well on me.

0:31.5

So I'm curious about the non-answer you're happy about.

0:35.5

Yeah, okay, let's do this then. And I eagerly await both of you thinking that I am either missing

1:40.8

Suddenly he didn't want to say anything. And maybe it means nothing,

1:49.7

but they love to say no, no, we're not going to rock the boat, nothing's going to fundamentally change.

1:55.8

It would be very easy for them to promise that on this area, but why do both Biden and Kamala Harris

2:03.0
