All right, guys.

Now, let's talk about the shutdown, which is coming to an end.

And by the time you listen to this, perhaps it will be at an end.

Today is Tuesday.

The Senate has agreed or Democrats in the Senate have agreed to come alongside Republicans to open up the government.

Has to go back to the House. Speaker Mike Johnson are having Republicans fly in to the Capitol.

Hopefully everybody will get there by Wednesday. They'll be able to take a vote and put it on

President Trump's desk, put the bill on President Trump's desk to sign

soon thereafter. So the government will be a reopen. Now, I got to tell you guys, I'm one of these

people when it comes to government shutdowns. I'm like, okay, you know, this one, again, a little different, I shouldn't say again, but it's a little

different because it is the longest government shut down in history. But the cruelty of this one,

and my opinion, was much different than anyone that I've witnessed before. Now, I will say this.

I'm one of these people that I believe that the essential employees of the federal government should always be paid.

And when there is a so-called shutdown, which doesn't exist because the federal government never completely shuts down.

And all of the people that were impacted job-wise by the shutdown, the air traffic controllers and what have you.

These are the people, these are the essential employees of the federal government.

These are the people that should always get a paycheck.

All right.

They should never be politicized.

But when it comes to non-essential government employees, I believe that we have to cut the fat.

I'm sorry, we don't have the money.

We're in debt.
