0:00.0	Hi, this is Josh Marshall and this is the Josh Marshall podcast featuring Kate Riga.
0:25.0	When we were getting ready to broadcast today, and Kate is usually the one who gives us kind of like an outline plan of what we're going to talk about.
0:34.6	You know, kind of a quick overview.
0:35.9	We'll hit these three or four points.
0:37.3	And the first point was the whole drama over the continuing resolution and the sort of the,
0:44.0	you know, blowback at Chuck Schumer that came out of that. And it took me a moment to process the
0:52.8	fact that that happened within the last week because it seems, I don't
0:56.8	know, two or three weeks ago, you know, it's another one of these examples of, you know,

1:52.8	I don't have enmity to the guy, but I don't think he really kind of understands the moment that we're
2:00.0	living in. And because of that, when I see these interviews, he really kind of understands the moment that we're living in.
2:01.3	And because of that, when I see these interviews, it's kind of awkward.
2:05.1	I think I posted, I experienced it as a little awkward.
