I was in the analytics of this channel and I noticed something a little bit off. 65. Percent of you listen or watch and are not subscribed to the channel, but 35% of you are and I appreciate you and thank you for subscribing. Now the other 65% of you that aren't subscribed, I'm going to make you a deal. If you subscribe to the channel right now, I will continue to bring you content that is better

every single time. So it takes you a second to do that, but also you get something out of this too. Not only do you get my content, but you get content similar to mine that you'd be interested in in your feed because the platforms, they see what you do on their platform. If you like and subscribe here and also leave a comment, you're going to get more stuff like this in your feed and you're going to love it. Not just for me, but from other creators on the platform. So that's the deal.

I make better content every time and all I ask is for a subscriber real quick. Alright, thanks. But they said they're in very bad shape. You, you spoke today with your cabinet members and Elon Musk. I did. What did you tell them in in regards to Elon Musk and his authorities to carry out actions? We had a great meeting. We had Elon and we had some of the representatives that for, you know, the business reps We also had most of the cabinet

members, not all of them. It doesn't really pertain to all of them, but many of them. And I thought it was a really good meeting. It was about cutting because we have, everybody knows the country's way out of control in terms of the number of people. We have many people that don't work. We have many people probably that aren't even living that are getting checks. And we're finding all of that out and it's being reported. We're going to save hundreds of billions of dollars.

We've already saved a lot. And parts of it are contracts that are expired that we're paying on many crazy things that, you know, you can see it happening. It shouldn't happen, but you can see it happening. You see a lot of it being put out. But the other thing I think most important for today, I want the cabinet members to keep good people. I don't want to see a big cut where a lot of good people are

cut. I want the cabinet members to keep the people that aren't doing a good job, that are unreliable, don't show up to work, etcetera. Those people can be cut. So I, I had a meeting and I said, I want the cabinet members go first, keep all the people you want, everybody that you need. And it would be better if they were there for two years instead of two weeks, because in two years they'll know the people

better. But I want them to do the best job they can where we have good people, those that's precious. It's very important that we want them to keep the good people. And so we're going to be watching them and Elon and the group are going to be watching them. And if they can cut, it's better. And if they don't cut, then Elon will do the cutting. So. Mr. Flex and Elon Musk have been moving too quickly. No, no. I think I've done an amazing job.

They've done an amazing job. And look at what they found. I read it the other night in the speech. I mean, they found these things where billions of dollars has been poured down in the drain to things. That's not about people, that's about contracts. Where billions and billions of dollars was just thrown out the window. It's it's probably got kickbacks. I'm sure there were tremendous kickbacks for the people that authorized those contracts.

But no, Elon has been really teaching everybody about the numbers that you can do. But what I want is I want the numbers, but I also want to keep the good people. We want to get rid of the people that aren't working, that aren't showing up and have a lot of problems. And so they're working together with Elon and I think we're doing a really great job. We're cutting it down. We have to, for the sake of our country. We have, you can't have that kind of fat.

It's bloat and like nobody's ever seen before. What, you need 20,000 and they have 120,000 people and you just don't need that many. And it happens with companies and it happens with governments. I guess you could go to a lot of governments, you'd see the same thing. But we're trying to get it down. We want to be able to next year. We could balance the budget. We, I think there's a good chance we could balance the budget next year.

We have a lot of good things happening, plus we have a lot of revenue things happening like today with the shipbuilding. And this gentleman behind me is going to create a lot of jobs. And you know, he's about the biggest there is in the world. We had the biggest chip maker in the world here a few days ago. He's going to be spending $200 billion on building plans. We're not giving them any money to build it either.

You know, it's not that ship back is ridiculous where the Biden thing where they give billions of dollars to people that have nothing but. Money. They're not going to spend that money. They're just taking that money. We're giving nothing. They're coming in because of the tariffs, because they don't want to pay the tariffs and they're opening up big. So, but with respect to people, I said I want to cut the people, but I want to keep the good people. Hey, thank you. SO.
