Secret Service Text Messages | July 30, 2024 | Hour 2

In emails, should you want to be part of the conversation, Todd at todefshow dot com or three one seven two one zero twenty eight thirty, be sure to make it count, my friends, once in a lifetime opportunity, and I should also say, be sure to include the appropriate amounts of adoration and praise, which is significantly more than you might first imagine. Lots of things as you know in the stack of stuff that I want to get to today.

I'm just gonna mention some of these if you want to see them or read more about them on the website Toddofshow dot com under the stack of stuff. So the things that are on my radar here that we were not going to get to all these, but again just to kind of give you an idea of what's in the stack of stuff and then what we might be touching on. We've got text messages. This assassination attempt of President Trump is I mean, folks, is what is going on here? What is going on here? I saw Bongino.

Dan Bongino actually said that there will be big news breaking this week on that attempt to assassination. Bongino, of course, used to be a Secret Service agent, so ostensibly he has people that he speaks with or connections he has that's giving him this information. We'll see where that goes. It was reported that well, text message records show that the Secret Service had communicated with each other for ninety minutes, well ninety minutes before the shooter tried to assassinate Trump.

Ninety minutes they were communicating about him, not for ninety minutes straight. But ninety minutes prior to the the shooting, they were aware of this guy. This number. You notice it keeps getting moved further and further back. At first it was like three minutes, then it was like thirty minutes, then it hit an hour. We're in an hour and a half now, I mean, we may find out that secret Service had dinner with the guy. I'm kidding. I hope, I'm kidding. It's like the further you dig here, the

more you find that this is. I mean, what happened was absolutely inexcusable. And for the director who did finally resign, for her not to resign immediately, or for her not to be fired immediately, it is absolutely inexcusable. So I get that in the stack of stuff. I referenced earlier that Kamala is segregating, quite literally segregating her supporters. I said it was white guys for Harris, It's white dudes

for Harris. That's apparently now a thing where you just put your race and your pronouns or your preferred you know, gender affiliation. Dudes. I don't know. I'm from the generation where dude meant I think dudes meant guys. I guess you could say dudes for anybody. I don't know, So I don't know if this you know, no word on what the left thinks about this is this? Is this toxic masculinity? I don't know, especially with white dudes. I mean,

should they be listened to? Where do they fall on the spectrum of how important their opinions are on mine? It's near zero if they say they're for commalo. But anyway, we've got that in this. There's a lot of stuff in the stack of stuff, my friends. Before we do that, they'll let me remind you. Let me tell you a little bit about my pillow. You know that we use their products here. We've got Echo and Tango using their dog bed. We have the sheets, we have the towels,

we have the premium my pillow. I love my pillow for two main reasons. Number One, I can put it into the shape that I need for my head and neck to be in alignment. Number Two, it's got the cooling technology, which I like. I'm a hot sleeper. I don't like it hot. I like what my pillow has done as far as that is concerned. So with that being said, the thing that my pillow is asked the most about is to come out with a special for their Queen size Premium My Pillow, and they've done that.

It's now nineteen dollars ninety eight cents. This is the lowest price that it's ever been made available. You can go to my pillow dot com slash Todd to shop use my name Todd as a promotional code. You're gonna get that nineteen ninety eight price, but you're also going to get discounts on a lot of other products, including, of course, things like the MyPillow bed sheets. They've got

brand new mattress toppers, they've got towel sets. MyPillow dot com slash Todd promo code Todd will get you those. So let us begin here today, my friends, I want to start by referencing this townhall dot com written by Matt Vespa headline here. New text messages reveal another troubling update on Trump assassination attempt. Two words describe the security situation at the Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July thirteenth.

Hot mess writes Matt Vespa. But there are so many glaring flaws and the ground is so inexcusable that it is fertile for conspiracy theorists. Can you blame them? The Secret Service is stonewalling and stacking sandbags amidst excuse me, a mid intense scrutiny from lawmakers from both parties. We don't know if would be assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks was a lone gunman. How many casings were recovered from the roof,

We don't know. What we do know is that no one at the Secret Service has been disciplined for this calamity. And now text messages obtained by The New York Times showed that snipers knew about Crooks earlier than initially reported. This is a common theme, by the way. Going back to the article here, it provides yet another damning update on the assassination attempt that nearly killed a former president.

Crooks missed delivering a fatal headshot by millimeters. So this is reported here Colin rugg on x it says this, wait a minute, no hold on here. Yeah, this is sorry that the tweet was from him. This is a poll quote. Here we go. Nearly one hundred minutes before President Donald J. Trump took the stage in Butler, Pennsylvania, a local counter sniper who was part of the broader security detail. Let his colleagues know his shift was ending. Guys, I am out be safe, he texted to a group

of colleagues. At four nineteen pm on July thirteenth, he exited the second floor of a warehouse. We know about this warehouse, of course, this is where the Secret Service agents were stationed. Instead of being on the rooftop, he exited the second floor of a warehouse that overlooked a campaign rally site, leaving two other counter snipers behind. Outside, the officer noticed a young man with a with long stringy hair sitting on a picnic table near the warehouse.

So at four twenty six pm he texted his colleagues about the man who was outside the fenced area of the Butler Fairgrounds where mister Trump was to appear. He said that the person would have seen him come out with his rifle and quote knows you guys are up there. The counter sniper who sent the text confirmed to The New York Times that the individual he saw was later identified as the gunman. So again I'm reading from the

New York Times article here. By five to ten pm, the young man was no longer at the on the picnic table. He was right below the counter snipers who were upstairs in a warehouse owned by a g R International.

One of the counter snipers took pictures of him. According to a law enforcement after action report, which, along with the texts from the Beaver County Emergency Services Unit, was provided to The Times by the office of Senator Chuck Grassley, Republican of Iowa, the text messages were independently verified by the Times, and so you can see these pictures. These pictures are taken from the window down onto you know, the shooter from above by scirrel too far back. Here

we go. At five thirty eight pm. The photos were shared in a group chat, and another text went out among the officers saying they should inform the Secret Service. Kid learning learning. That's what it says, kid learning around the building we were in AGR. I believe it is I did see him with a rangefinder looking towards stage. FYI, if you want to notify SS sniper Secret Service to look out, I lost sight of him. Taken together, the text messages provide the most detailed picture yet of the

hours before the assassination attempt. They revealed that the gunman later identified as Thomas Crooks twenty of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, aroused police suspicions more than ninety minutes before the shooting, rather than about sixty minutes as had previously discussed. Had been previously discussed in congressional hearings. Remember the first reports were that it was like six or three minutes or something.

I remember these things. The messages also add to the evidence that there would be assassin was often one step ahead of security forces and in particular the Secret Service. So that's out there. So there's lots of questions, what is going on here? Why don't we have this information? Why can't they tell us anything? Well, Todd, because it's an investigation, Well they never tell you know, by the

time this information comes out. Now, I know that there's obvious major difference between the Kennedy assassination and what happened to Trump, and that is, of course Trump survived by the grace of God, and John F. Kennedy did not. So I know that there's a difference in the outcome. But it was only a difference by millimeters, not much, right, not not much in the way of distance. It was

very close. We still don't know. We still don't have all the information from the Kennedy assassination that was in November November twenty second, nineteen sixty three. That is nearly sixty one years ago, my friends, nearly sixty one years ago. We still don't have answers to that. We still don't have the information. They keep this stuff hidden. We're never going to know this information. There is no reason they cannot share that information with us. There's simply is no

reason they hide behind this stuff. I think when this testimony took place, when the Secret Service director was being grilled prior to her resigning. Now, I don't know why she didn't resign before going through that experience with Congress. I would think you would at least say I'm gonna resign and just not deal with that. But when she was being grilled, I commented, I said, this is how all of these hearings go. This is a common thing. You go to Washington, DC. You're part of the Alphabet

Soup club. You're part of the CIA, the FBI, the SS, the whatever, right, you're part of the at AT whatever it is, NASA. You go in there, you're asked questions by Congress, and your job is basically to delay and deflect. You're too politically grandstand. I mean, you can take any number of things. Look at I mean Kaitanji Brown Jackson's Supreme Court Justice nomination hearing. Right, she actually wouldn't even give an answer as to what a woman was. This

is not uncommon. This is the strategy when we friends, we are the ones who've allowed this to happen. Do not buy into Do not buy into the bunk that we are the peak that we can't do anything about this. Don't buy into the argument that says, well, that's just the way that things are. No, no, no, my friends. If you buy into that, you're buying into the lie

that there's nothing that can be done about this. There can be something done about this, and candidly, it's what Donald J. Trump is talking about doing, which is to drain the swamp. We've got to get rid of this mindset. We've got to get we have too many agencies. We have too many agencies that are doing nothing. How many I shouldn't say doing nothing. There's you know, the rank and file that are part of the Secret Service, for the most part, have a really good history right of

keeping people safe. What happened with Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania was an absolutely absolute disaster, an absolute calamity. It was again millimeters away from being I mean, who knows what would have resulted from this. I don't know. I don't

even want to pontificate on that, speculate. So this is that there are folks that are doing good things, but there are a lot of people that are doing things that is simply designed to hide what they're doing, hide some of their well when they make mistakes, to cover those up, to focus on pushing leftist agenda items like

DEI and that sort of thing. There are complete departments that are given these tasks and responsibilities, and then of course when they're called before Congress, they don't give us any information. They lie, they deceive, they do anything to keep us from actually getting the information that we need and that we deserve. Candidly, my friends, they work for the American taxpayer. You know, we have effectively heard people

say this before. We've effectively established a fourth branch of government, the bureaucratic state, and the left loves this. By the way, the bureaucratic state is not held accountable to the people. Now. Interestingly, the bureaucratic state, the Deep States, the people who are involved in the bureaucracy the government. You know, the everything from the FBI through the ATF to the Department of

Education and Transportation. All these different departments and all the people, all the positions, all of the just jobs that exist within each of those departments. They all technically fall under the executive branch the presidency. The president is the commander in chief. The president is also the head of the executive branch. The president then is responsible. He's the one or she's the one who ultimately the people in those

positions are supposed to answer to. Congress has oversight of the president, so therefore Congress can bring these folks in. But these folks are skilled and taught in how to deceive, how to manipulate, how to hide, and how to not answer questions. And that's what happens. And it's not just the Secret Service director. It goes across virtually every group that you can imagine, and so nothing gets done. They hide This from us. Is a massive, bloated, bureaucratic mess

where a portion of the people aren't doing anything. Some of the people are doing a legitimate function, many of them are unnecessary. Heck, some whole departments are unnecessary. Some of these departments, some of these entire agencies, have been weaponized against the American public, have been weaponized against the Republican nominee for President of the United States, former President Donald J. Trump. These things have been abused and misused

for a long long time. They can't even tell you how many casings were found on top of the location the building where the snipe, well, the attempt at assassin would have allegedly fired his weapon. Why, why what is going on here? And why does the information keep changing? This is it'll be three weeks this coming Saturday, that this three weeks ago that this would have happened. I mean,

there's how much information. I understand. They might not know everything and know every connection and you know, motivation and so forth that the alleged assassin might have had. But they certainly could tell us facts as to where Secret Service agents were located, how many shots were fired, accounting the should be able to account for all of the bullets that were fired at the president that day. They should be able to clearly and concisely tell us that

there was only one shooter or two or whatever. They should be able to do these things. They just have a reluctance to do that. So Dan Vonngino says that more information is going to come out this week about the shooting. That's going to be big news. We'll see what happens. But you know, I'm just I'm for one, I'm tired of being lied to. This is again, this is how the business of working in the deep state works. You collect your paycheck, you build up your pension, your retirement.

You know, you get cushy places to land in the unlikely event that you're actually terminated or lose your job or whatever, and you make a lot of money. You make more money in these positions than you would make in the private sector in a comparable role. This is unsustainable. I mean this is not hard to understand. You know, the taxpayer, the taxpayer is paying the people that work in the government more than the people they're taxing to do similar jobs in the private sector. That does not

make sense. That is unsustainable. On top of that, they lie to us. They grow their budgets every year. It is a bloated, bureaucratic mess. They never find ways to save money on anything. In fact, if you want to cut heck, if you just don't want to grow the budget one year. They act like you are going to personally be responsible for the death of every politician because it's just going to lead to unmitigated disasters and messes.

That's just not the way that it works. But we fall into that mess and maybe not you and me, but as a country, we've bought into that lie. We bought into the lie that there's nothing we can do about it. It's just the way that it is. And if we change anything two months too much, we're going to have absolute bedlamen mayhem because these agencies won't be

able to do their stated responsibility. After all, they can't even secure the president former president under the conditions that they have today with more with the current budget, let alone if we cut it, or at least that's the argument. How about you find people that know how to run it. How about you find people who actually have an interest in not just pushing leftist agenda items things like DEI

and so forth. Why don't we focus on what really matters, get down to the core issue of what your responsibility is. And how about along the way you communicate with the people who give you the very money that you need to operate to do your job. And to live your life the taxpayer. Anyway, my friends, quick time out. You will see if you're watching on the camera that I've got my I Love my Country, not my government shirt on today. That's a shirt that is courtesy of Hillbilly

Strong Gear Hillbillystronggear dot com. You can go there. They're one of our newest partners. I like these shirts. They're clean, they got messages that I think many people could wear. Some people. You know, I'm not a guy. I'm not afraid to say what i think, but there's certain messages that I'm just simply not going to not going to wear.

I laughed at the let's go Brandon, well, I laughed at how they got to that right because people were chanting something else in the audience, and the reporter said, I think they're chanting let's go, let's go Brandon. That's what humored me. I'm not a guy that's gonna wear that. Some of you do, and that's fine. I'm not here to I'm just here to say that's not I am, but who I am. But this this is more my style and there's different messages on these shirts. They're well made,

they're comfortable, they're soft, they fit well. There's a variety of different messages and shirts that you can find at He'll billystronggear dot com. Go to hillbillystronggear dot com to search or to shop these this line. They have hats as well. They've got other products too, but he'll billy Strong gear dot com. I've got one of the shirts on the day and I love it. He'll billy Strong Gear dot Com. So quick timeout is in order, my friends. When we get back, I want to shift gears a

little bit. There's a lot of things in the stack of stuff I want to get to and we'll do our best to do that in due course. In the meantime, sit tight, my friends. You are listening here to conservative not better talking on your host Tod Huff Back in just a minute. Back, my friends. By the way, I should let you know my cast vast, vast, and I'm talking vast army of attorneys has informed me, has reminded me that I need to let you know this is

a disclaimer. I probably should state this more frequently. So this is something you're gonna have to take to heart, and you're gonna have to remind yourself in the future. Here it is ninety eight percent of scientists agree ninety eight percent. That should be noted that that is one percent more, one percent more of scientists who agree that that who believe that man is contributing and primarily the cause of climate change. There's more scientists that would agree

with this statement than with that one. And the statement is as follows. Listening to this program has been proven to cause people to lean to the right. And so if you're operating heavy machinery, if you're driving a car, if you're carrying a baby, if you're walking a dog, I don't want to be responsible for injuries to other people, other creatures. Heck, if you are carrying a cup of coffee down the hallway, you can find yourself veering and

leaning to the right. So consider yourselves duly warned, and consider this a public service announcement of public service statement that should be applied to any and all episodes moving forward of this program. I hope that suffices for you, my vast, vast, vast team of attorneys. So that being said, I want to shift gears here a little bit. Folks. We live in a bizarre world, in bizarre times where people I am I am amazed, I'm amazed. And I

gotta be honest. I normally until my mind can be changed on some things, some things that cannot be changed on, but something it can be. And I gotta tell you one of the things it's been changed on is my willingness to say that people are being absolutely stupid. I was like that.

go around calling people stupid. But I remember, even in the article from from Gary Varville where he was talking about Dietrich Boenhoffer, who was who opposed Adolf Hitler in Nazi Germany lost his life for this, opposed him in the nineteen thirties, talking about the stupidity of people. And you know, I believe at the core of our problems, I really believe this. I believe at our this is a spiritual battle that we're facing. I understand people can

have different preferences on politics. I'm not talking about that. I'm not talking about what should be taxed, what the tax rate is specifically right, I mean, it shouldn't be not no one, no one can justify making it, you know, uh, excessive. But you can disagree we should tax this, not tax that, we should fund this and not that, or vice versa. Okay, But folks, we are embarking on a journal, on a

journey where one side is quite literally embracing evil. And I believe at the core this is a spiritual battle. I do believe that. I'm not just saying that. I also believe. And this is where I've maybe have opened up more to the you're an idiot, not you, but you know, someone's an idiot. Concept is that, you know, the more that we choose to live in darkness, the more that we choose to embrace wickedness and evil willingly. I mean, Biblically speaking, the Bible says we're given over

to a depraved mind. There's a point where where we lose the ability to think. And I think that that we've hit that. I think that we've hit that. Now. I want to be clear, I'm not saying that everyone who says stupid things is you know, some sort of person who's just under direct I don't know, demonic control or something. I think that that's clearly the case sometimes,

but not every time. Sometimes we just have people who have I don't know, they've given up their their responsibility, they've advocated the responsibility to think, to be reasonable, to be rational. And so you've got these groups of people. Now, this is a group of sixteen white women, liberal women. They jump on this zoom call to I guess encouraging to coach one another about how to help elect Kamala Harris as President of the United States, which is their

right to do that. I'm not but the way this listen to this, I I was gonna say I don't That's not the right way of saying. I was gonna say I don't know people like this. That's not true. I do know people like this, but I don't closely associate with people like I'll be folks, I get along with anybody like I really take pride in being able to find a way. We're all human beings. Every person is made in the image of God, and God wants a relationship with them and He's ordered me to love them,

and I have no problem with that. Right, it doesn't matter. Any of these things do not matter to me. They matter to me when it comes to how it affects our country, our freedom, our prosperity, the leaders that we put into place, that's not the right word, but the elected officials who have certain authorities through our government, that matters tremendously on our lives. I'm not one of these people who believes it doesn't matter. I reject that fully.

The same people often who say it doesn't matter are the same people who wouldn't live the rest of their life like that. They try to get healthy, right, they try to, you know, take care of their finances. Why would they not tend to their leaders or the people that are elected to positions of political power. They take care of their automobiles. What is it that makes people think that we shouldn't even try to address the issue of those people who are elected and given authority in

our government. That seems to be relevant. It seems to be important to me anyway. So these women have gotten together and they're on here talking with people. It's important to note I pointed out that these folks are well they're all women, and they're all white, and they're all liberal. And that's important to note because you're gonna hear some terms. You're gonna hear one girl on here who talks about you know, bipock. And if you're not familiar with that,

that's what is that? What's the b I stand for? People of color? Is there? I'm drawing a blank at the moment, but but it's referencing, you know, people people of color and how we have to base let them tell us when we can talk, and we got to put our listening ears on. So I know people like this, but I just don't live in this world. Now. If some of you in the corporate world, this may sound like a regular Monday morning meeting or something. I don't know.

But that being said, here we have a group of women. You're going to hear a former teacher who's now an influencer who's going to talk to the group. This is about. This is a couple of minutes a minute forty. I just want you to listen to this and how they talk to each other, and how they think, how they just think about using their voices. This is so bizarre and backwards to my way of thinking. But nonetheless, here it is.

We can do our best work when we're in community together like we are tonight, because the toxic feels smaller when we support each other. But don't make it about yourself. As white women, we need to use our privilege to make positive changes. If you find yourself talking over or speaking for bipop individuals, or god forbid, correcting them, let's take a beat and instead we can put our listening

ears on. So do learn from and amplify the voices of those who have been historically marginalized, and use the privilege you have in order to push for systemic change. As white people, we have a lot to learn and unlearn, So do check your blind spots. You are responsible for your algorithm, believe.

to help you with your overall heart help. It's here to help you lower your cholesterol. Heart disease killed seven hundred thousand Americans in each of the past two years. And what's extra sad about that is that we can take actions to protect our heart from long term damage, because heart disease takes a long time, years and sometimes even decades to truly weaken our hearts. And so Salty has developed a product too, Salty Soft Jails a day that you can take. It's a Theflavinx track that comes

from enriched green teaths. Taking two of those Salty Soft jails is like taking thirty five cups of green tea. Drinking thirty five cups, I should say, and this has a great impact on lowering your cholesterol. Many people have testified to this, given you know, just a lot of case studies and saying how much the product has helped them. But it's also been clinically researched. So Salty dot Com

is the website Solta. Use my name Todd at checkout, and you're going to get save fifty percent on that first three month supply salty dot Com sol Ta promo code Todd. Quick time out, my friends, you're listening to conservative not better talk on your host Todd Huff back in just a minute. Welcome back to my friends. I you know my dad, my dad. I've shared this on here before, but when I listened to that that clip I played last segment of this white liberal woman named

Ariel Phodor, I believe she's now an influencer. She's got a million and a half people following her talking about this gibberish. I was just reminded as I listened to her again. It's it's an interesting dynamic to me. On the one hand, I feel like I'm in a kindergarten classroom the way that they talk to each other. On the other hand, it reminds minds me of a phrase my father used, and he's spot on right about this.

My dad, by the way, didn't go to college, worked right out of high school, worked as much of his way through high school, but also ended up working eventually as a union representative. He was in the Union Local nine thirty three here in Indianapolis. Started off working with Alan excuse me, Alison Engine Company. It had several different names.

I don't understand all of it. Eventually they were purchased by Rolls Royce, where my dad became a union committeeman I believe was the title, and my dad had to meet with some of the management folks, and of course my dad got along with my dad got along with everybody. Of course my dad. You knew where my dad stood as well, but he sometimes had to deal with people who he referred to as over educated. It's and the term is so correct in our world today. It's it's. Look,

I am not against education, and neither's my dad. But what the message he was trying to communicate was, you know, there are things that you learn just from being alive and living life. We would call these things like guess treat smarts. I'm reminded. I'm reminded of my uh, you know,

my oldest daughter. I remember the time when she was a little bitty her and my son, her brother, who's a little couple years older, they were playing something they were playing with I think they were playing with cars. Maybe it was something else. But there's about I don't know, thirty cars like hot wheels or something like that. And my son said, hey, I'm going to use this one. You can you can pick any of the other cars that you want, but I'm going to use this one.

Which one do you want? And she pointed to the one that he had, and he said no. My son's the rule follower. You know, he's very kind of logical and very fair. But he's like, I, oh, no, I've picked this one. You get to pick any of these other ones, but this is the one I'm gonna play with. Which one do you want? And she kept picking it and it was fascinating to watch as a parent because what he didn't grasp was like he was thinking, well, why would she want this. I've clearly told her that

I'm using this one. She can pick anything else. What's going on? But she was playing another game. She was playing the game called Let's Get Under My Brother's Skin. And now I'm not saying that that's necessarily smarter, but my point is she was using what you would maybe call street smarts, and he was going by the book. And sometimes sometimes we have people who have the sense educated out of them, right, we have people who have

observed observed things in human nature. They know how things work, they understand how people think. But yet they go to school, oftentimes it's college, and they're basically told that the exact opposite of what they've experienced is the case. Now there's time, certainly that we can be wrong and education can enlighten us and we can say, oh, that's not really what I thought. But that's far too often that's not what happens. What happens is we're told things that are not true

in these settings. People, by the way, who never have to make their ideas work in the real world. People oftentimes in these ivory towers in academia, by the way, one of the seven pillars of propaganda. They can go in there in their classroom and what they say goes right. I took political science classes. Some of these professors had the mentality of my ideas are the right ones. If

you disagree, that means you're wrong, so you get bad grades. Meanwhile, if you try to use their ideas put them into practical reality, they fail miserably. These are the people that were the socialists and the communists and so forth. But that's not how they viewed it. In fact, they always had answers as to why their morally depraved ideology did not work, and it was things like, well, we never had the benevolent dictator arise, we always had these bad

people that arose to these positions of power. If we just had the right leader, if we just had the right amount of time, if we just didn't have the United States propagandizing the Soviet people or whatever it was, then we would have succeeded. This was the next greatest thing. We all would be holding hands, singing kumbay a, loving

each other. There would be no, no, anything, nothing bad in the world if you would only adopt my political ideology, thinks the radical left, when in reality the truth is the only place that these ideas can quote unquote flourish is in the classroom in academia, where they can sit there and make up things and not have to deal with reality. And that produces a person. That sort of thinking produces a person that has no ability to think for himself for herself, and it you could say, educates

the sense out of them. In another way, again, my dad said over educated idiots, That's what I was as I played that clip last segment. That's what I kept hearing. Besides a bit of a kindergarten teacher, I kept hearing kept feeling over educated idiots who try so hard to justify what they want to believe in their heart. They'll make up any number of things, which is, you can't correct a person of color, What does that even mean?

Why about? How about if someone is wrong or we think they're wrong, regardless of those things, we can still step in and challenge them. I just this is crazy talk to me. I gotta go, folks. SDG
