Aired September 10, 2026 - 06:30   ET

THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.


[06:30:00]

MAX ROSE (D), FORMER NEW YORK CONGRESSMAN: And us New Yorkers, we think about that actual horrific day and all of the fear that we -- that we had that day and then its aftermath.

But we also think about the veterans the service members and their decades-long conflict. And there's going to be a series of events in and around Ground Zero over the coming days where cops and firemen will remember those who served heroically on that day, and they'll be joined by veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan, sharing in many ways what was a shared fight and shared sacrifice.

AUDIE CORNISH, CNN ANCHOR: Well, Max Rose, appreciate your service, and thank you so much for being on with us today.

ROSE: Thanks for having me.

CORNISH: And if you would like to join in this memorial, the CNN to remember 9/11, 25 years later, it's special live coverage from Memorial Plaza in lower Manhattan. It's going to start tomorrow at 7 a.m. And you can watch that as well on the app.

Later on CNN, we're going to talk about a show of force in New York. How the NYPD is working overtime to keep the city safe as there are preparations, as we said, to honor the victims of 9/11.

But first, we're going to talk about another moment from last night's convention. Trump insults a Senate candidate, then tells everyone to vote for him. We'll talk more about that later.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

[06:36:02]

CORNISH: So, first there were promises of DOGE dividends. Then tariff rebates. Now the president is again promising you money. Of course, there's a catch.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

DONALD TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: So, if the Republicans win, you win with us and you get $5,000. It will be called the Trump dividend. We'll call it the Trump dividend. Congratulations. Now all we have to do -- now all we have to do is win.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CORNISH: Can he even do that? I'm coming to the group chat to talk about it.

Now, I'm not going to lie. If I held my breath every time the president promised to give every American money, I would have passed out last February of 2025 when he said it multiple times on Truth Social. And now it's doubled. Help me understand dangling this. Like, does it work?

ALEX THOMPSON, CNN POLITICAL ANALYST: I mean, I --

CORNISH: Is there a jump in polls? Like, what is does the White House think is the value of this constant promising and not delivering on these cash payouts?

THOMPSON: Well, because maybe if -- you know, they are obviously hoping that if voters here, oh, maybe I'll get money if I vote for Republicans, that they'll come out and vote in numbers, especially when the polling numbers are low. But the number -- beyond like the false promises before, the number of unanswered questions about this potential program are staggering. We don't know where the money would come from. We don't know how they would intend to pay for it. It costs over $1 trillion. It's unclear --

CORNISH: You mean just doing the basic back of the envelope math of, like, everyone gets $5,000. That's $1 trillion program.

THOMPSON: Yes.

CORNISH: Yes.

THOMPSON: Yes, absolutely.

CORNISH: OK.

THOMPSON: Yes, it's every adult. It's $1 trillion program. You have a situation in which the Fed is still fighting inflation.

CORNISH: Yes.

THOMPSON: It's been found that those checks during Covid caused part of the inflation.

CORNISH: I'm going to put up the national debt just so that people can count to infinity.

Mike, help me understand this. He's also talked about, and this was in "Axios," a $500 rebate check to a million people who they claim were overcharged for their coverage under Obamacare, and that those are direct payments that would go to people in weirdly 30 states. Didn't people in the other 20 states have this problem?

THOMPSON: I think there were particular problems with the Obamacare markets in those states.

CORNISH: Got it. Got it. And that would be before the midterm election.

MIKE DUBKE, FORMER TRUMP WHITE HOUSE COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR: That one makes sense. That one totally makes sense.

CORNISH: Yes, actual policy, rebating, funding that exists.

DUBKE: Well, first, Alex, I didn't hear him say adults, only adults were going to get this money.

MEGHAN HAYS, FORMER BIDEN WHITE HOUSE DIRECTOR OF MESSAGE PLANNING: Yes, only adults. And it has to be spent in America.

DUBKE: Did he say only adults?

THOMPSON: Yes, I believe so.

DUBKE: And he said had to be spent --

HAYS: And it has to be spent in America. Not like how you --

CORNISH: And not including high-income people.

DUBKE: But I don't -- I don't really understand -- we really --

THOMPSON: Kids can't vote, Mike.

HAYS: Republicans hope they can.

DUBKE: While you're implying --

CORNISH: As people would say --

DUBKE: You're implying something here. I believe we did --

HAYS: We are --

DUBKE: If we did a 50/50 raffle, there may be a better chance of a payoff for somebody, because we can all contribute.

CORNISH: Yes. You know, what if it was -- yes, yes, it could be a chocolate bar with a gold wrapper. And whatever family --

HAYS: But if he's going to make these promises when you know you don't have to keep them because he knows he's not going to win. So, it's very easy to go out there and say it hoping that he'll get a few extra votes every now and then for a low propensity voter that's not paying attention and all of a sudden they're like, we're going to get $5,000.

These are empty promises. It's B.S.

CORNISH: Really? Well, here's J.D. Vance talking on Fox News. This was on Tuesday.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

J.D. VANCE, VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: First of all, what the president is talking about is fundamentally a dividend for American workers. We're taking in an extraordinary amount of revenue because the president of the United States, is actually standing up to both foreign companies, but also foreign countries who have been taking advantage of America's workers for pretty much my entire life.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CORNISH: One thing that's weird is after one of the Supreme Court rulings, the tariff money had to be refunded.

THOMPSON: Yes.

CORNISH: There were a bunch of companies that took rebate checks, and they did not pass them back on to the consumer. So, I'm not even sure where this revenue is --

THOMPSON: Yes.

CORNISH: Given that that pool was majorly dinged for legal reasons.

DUBKE: In all seriousness, though, there is a long history of politicians doing -- of issuing checks. We've seen it at the state level.

[06:40:00]

CORNISH: Yes, of course. Joe Biden, 2024.

DUBKE: Right. We've -- back to Richard Nixon in 1972. So, I mean, and we've seen these checks cut prior to the -- prior to an election. Basically --

CORNISH: Yes. Do people usually say you'll only get it if you make sure we're in charge?

DUBKE: That is an unusual twist to this one.

HAYS: No, but it's an easy and empty promise.

THOMPSON: Well, I mean, you even -- you even saw Fox News, in that interview in a different clip with J.D. Vance, they bluntly asked him, isn't this just a bribe? And --

CORNISH: Wait, they did?

THOMPSON: Yes

CORNISH: Going well. Going well.

HAYS: What was his answer? Yes. Yes, it is.

THOMPSON: And there was deep skepticism on Fox News when J.D. Vance was there, both of like how this program would work, if it's, obviously, fiscally irresponsible. But also, is this just a way of trying to bribe voters to vote Republican?

HAYS: But --

DUBKE: I mean, again, we are joking about this, but the $40 trillion in debt, I mean as a --

CORNISH: Yes, we can put that number up.

DUBKE: We really -- we really do need -- I mean that is a serious, serious number.

HAYS: But --

DUBKE: We are -- we are worse off now financially than we were when we were spending in World War II on defense.

CORNISH: That's not what he said at the convention.

DUBKE: I know. I'm saying --

HAYS: But also --

DUBKE: I am saying something different.

CORNISH: OK.

DUBKE: Which is OK.

CORNISH: OK.

DUBKE: You know, we -- Republicans do let other Republicans say something different.

CORNISH: I'm not so sure about that.

DUBKE: I'm saying the deficit is a problem.

CORNISH: We're going to talk about that in a moment.

HAYS: But also, it just goes against like traditional Republican values of being fiscally conservative. Like, he doesn't care. I mean this is just completely --

CORNISH: I don't think he's ever advertised himself as a fiscal conservative.

HAYS: But then you watch all these Republicans fall in line with him and promote it. You saw a bunch of stuff this morning saying, we're going to pass this when it gets to Congress. It's like, come on, guys, grow up.

CORNISH: Well, he is doing his job in that he's giving them something to talk about, which is what the Trump-a-palooza was supposed to do.

I want to turn to one of the Senate races that really matter here, right? This convention is in Dallas for a reason. James Talarico has -- flips his stance on transgender kids in sports.

So, will voters in Texas reward or punish him for it?

Plus --

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Ossoff needs to put down the mascara and join the real world.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CORNISH: From Georgia's Ossoff and his mascara, to low-t Talarico, Republicans can't stop talking about masculinity. Do voters care?

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

[06:46:26]

CORNISH: We're going to talk about Texas now. The Democratic Senate nominee, James Talarico, doing a bit of a flip flop when it comes to transgender issues.

So, back in 2021, in his opposition to restrictions on trans athletes in Texas, he said this, "some things are more important than perfectly fair competition in sports." Here's what he said last week because he was asked about it on Fox.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

JAMES TALARICO (D), TEXAS SENATE CANDIDATE: And I oppose trans athletes playing in girls' sports if it endangers safety or fairness. Every sport has to be safe and fair. As a former public school teacher, I care a lot about our student athletes. I care a lot about our students. And so I will oppose trans athletes playing in girls' sports if it risks safety or fairness.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CORNISH: If it risks safety. Can you talk about this because you had the Massachusetts race, obviously not Texas, where the back and forth about trans athletes and the policy around it was extremely different. Is there any nuance to his answer? Does it help his case?

HAYS: I think there's nuance to his answer. I think it was a lot of a non-answer. I think that transgender in sports is a really big issue in Texas. As someone who has family there with daughters, they care deeply about this. So, I do think he is trying to thread the needle here. I'm not sure that that's going to make a difference right now. I don't -- I think people are voting on the economy and not these cultural issues, especially in a place like Texas, where their energy is just so expensive and their gas is so expensive. So, I'm not sure that it was even worth getting into. But, I get it.

(CROSS TALK)

CORNISH: Yes, but here's an ad from Ken Paxton on Wednesday.

(CROSS TALK)

CORNISH: Let me play it for you. You can see how the opposition is talking about it.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

KEN PAXTON (D), TEXAS SENATE CANDIDATE: He calls himself a Christian who hates Christianity, said God is non-binary. I must have missed that verse in the Bible. And, of course, he claimed there were six genders, which is absolutely crazy. And this guy is really obsessed with transitions. He wants to transition your kids.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CORNISH: OK, sorry, not an ad. That was him, obviously, at this event, which in a way is there for him.

Just so we have some context, this is what Talarico said in 2021 when he talked about God being binary. I always like for everyone to hear the full clip, so we all know what we're talking about. Here's what he had to say back then.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

JAMES TALARICO: The first two lines in Genesis use two different Hebrew words to describe God. One is the masculine Hebrew noun for divinity. The second is the feminine Hebrew noun for spirit. God is both masculine and feminine, and everything in between. God is non- binary.

I was being provocative with that statement. I get that. What I was trying to say is that you can't use human categories to define God. And that's not controversial theologically.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CORNISH: Except it's Texas.

DUBKE: Well, and as Rahm Emanuel says in -- he's on CNN all the time -- you know, when you're explaining, you're losing. And he's explaining here. He's losing on that non-binary comment. He's also losing on this particular issue.

I will -- I will take exception on one thing. I do think cost of living issues are going to be paramount to most people. But sometimes these secondary issues rise up in a voter's mind as they're going to the -- into the voting booth. And I, and I, I do think that his non- answer on trans athletes there, because he really did have all of these kind of extra conditions on his answer, is going to hurt him.

[06:50:08]

CORNISH: OK. DUBKE: And when a politician flip flops, and that's really what's going on here, that's going to hurt him even more. So, he's got both the flip flop and the non-answer. So, I don't think he's going to benefit from this conversation. And Paxton's going to keep it going.

HAYS: Right. And I just think that people in Texas know that Paxton was impeached from his own Republican legislature and as a corrupt individual, I don't know that you (INAUDIBLE).

CORNISH: So, let me add one more thing. This is how --

HAYS: They both have a lot here.

CORNISH: This is how Trump has been praising Paxton at this event.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

DONALD TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: He may not dress right, he may not talk exactly perfectly, and he may not be the best-looking guy I've ever seen. But you know what he is? He's the greatest attorney general in America. And he deserves to be your next senator.

I'm sorry, Ken. Where the hell is he? He's there. I'm so sorry. He'll never speak to me again, but that's OK.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CORNISH: It's like a roast.

OK, so do looks matter? Apparently, they do. It's coming up in other places, too. For example, in Georgia, where there's a bunch of attack ads against Jon Ossoff for being, quote/unquote, pretty. In a new attack ad it features an A.I.-generated Ossoff, and it accuses him of being more interested in makeup than legislating.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Ossoff needs to put down the mascara and join the real world. Pretty boy has an ugly record.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: SLF PAC is responsible for the content of this advertising.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CORNISH: All right, you can see in the corner there, we had the phrase A.I.-generated, right? They didn't get footage of him in the chair. And Ossoff actually, in addressing this ad, kind of took issue with this. I want to play his response.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

SEN. JON OSSOFF (D-GA): Well, the ad is weak and ineffective, but it is deeply troubling to see this deepfake videos used to fabricate political advertising. And it's a slippery slope toward the destruction of truth in political debate. And the ad should come down immediately for that reason. And Congressman Mike Collins should condemn the ad.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CORNISH: Are candidates worried about this?

THOMPSON: Absolutely. And Republicans have been much more willing to use A.I. in deceptive ways, just like that, depicting candidates, than Democrats do. And, you know, I think some Democrats are concerned that, you know, they're sort of tying their -- you know, fighting with one arm behind their back right now because, you know, A.I. in ads is coming one way or another.

CORNISH: Yes.

THOMPSON: I mean it's sort of the same argument we heard earlier in the show about A.I. companies. Like, both sides sort of agree it's bad, but they both were like, well, if we don't do it, the other people are going to do it.

CORNISH: Yes. And just so we know where the state of that race is, polling most recently from Fox in June, showing Ossoff slightly ahead in Georgia in that Senate race. But I raise it because, you know, periodically I remember there being stuff about like magazine covers where Obama was made to look like darker, or there was always this manipulation in ad culture and messaging.

DUBKE: Of course.

And it feels like it's funny when it's a meme, right? It's one thing to put an imposed image of a sombrero on Hakeem Jeffries. It's another thing to have a candidate doing something that you don't have, you have not captured, and just putting it out there for the public to see.

DUBKE: What is not deceptive, though, is the actual hit. And this is where I disagree with this premise about this being about masculinity. To me, this is a -- this is, how does he spend his donors money? And if he's paying for haircuts -- because I don't know. I pay for my own haircut. I don't have donors pay for my haircut. He -- if he's -- if he is weak in spending donors' money, how do you think he's spending taxpayers money?

CORNISH: Right. It's sort of like --

DUBKE: And that's -- that's exactly --

HAYS: But that is -- that is not --

DUBKE: This is -- this is -- no, no, but this is --

CORNISH: OK, is this like when people -- no, no, but I actually -- I like that he's bringing this up --

HAYS: But --

CORNISH: Because I remember when Sarah Palin's family, like, got all the clothing, you know, and their wardrobe, that was a huge deal. People made a big deal out of it.

HAYS: Totally. But let's be clear, that is -- that's not what that ad is saying. That is -- that is a fair argument to make, and you can make that, but that is not who that ad is targeting, and that is not what that ad is saying. They are saying that he is not a strong enough man and doesn't give off like these man vibes, which is just toxic masculinity.

DUBKE: Is the way -- is what you took away from that ad. What I took away from that ad --

CORNISH: Oh, no, they call -- they call Talarico low-t Talarico.

(CROSS TALK)

HAYS: And they, like, said like pretty boy or something at the end. Like, come on now. I mean, I get your argument. That's a fair argument. But that's not what's happening.

DUBKE: You have got --

CORNISH: Which, honestly, is a flex.

DUBKE: You have got to capture attention --

CORNISH: Yes.

DUBKE: With all the political ads that are running in Georgia, in every state where there's a competitive Senate race or House race, you have to gain attention.

CORNISH: Yes.

HAYS: You know who does this stuff? People who are losing. People who are losing by 13 points. They are going to lose that race because it's not going to help them and this is a losing argument.

DUBKE: Well, that -- that is an independent expenditure -- that is an independent expenditure. And by that, they cannot lie in the ad. They actually have to --

HAYS: But can I ask something from the position of the voter? If he is memed as a thirst trap, how does, say --

DUBKE: As a what?

HAYS: A thirst trap. Meaning, if there's people who already think he's pretty and like it, an ad saying he definitely is --

DUBKE: Don't you think --

THOMPSON: I mean -- yes, I mean, like he's too hot.

DUBKE: Are these --

[06:55:01] CORNISH: Yes, he's too hot to be in the Senate.

THOMPSON: And listen, if you were Mike Collins, I'd probably be making that argument.

DUBKE: Well, I mean, there you go.

CORNISH: Yes, listen --

HAYS: Well, there we are.

CORNISH: Well, apparently, if you were in Ken Paxton, according to the president.

DUBKE: There you go. According to President Trump.

HAYS: I know.

CORNISH: But let's just play Governor Gavin Newsom talking about the issues that matter to men, which obviously is a sore spot for Democrats. After the last election, I saw every dude in Congress lifting weights, jogging. You're all recruiting loggers and oystermen or whatever.

DUBKE: Swimming in jeans (ph), it seems.

CORNISH: Yes. Yes. Exactly.

HAYS: That's your side. (INAUDIBLE).

CORNISH: Andrew Tate is back. It's all back. Here's Governor Newsom acknowledging this.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

GOV. GAVIN NEWSOM (D-CA): I say this as a Democrat. We need to own up to the fact that we ceded that ground. We walked away from this crisis of men and boys. We can't afford, from an electoral perspective, to lose, but we -- these folks, but we also can't on the basis of our values and what we claim to care about and represent. And I say that on behalf of women that need better men.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

CORNISH: The numbers were there. That election had a gendered quality where young, especially progressives, were largely women. And my question is, now that you have a world, a manosphere, upset about the Iran War, complaining about the economy and their favorite podcaster is like, you know, I mean, socialism has its moments. Like, is it up for grabs? And are Democrats actually positioned to take advantage of it.

THOMPSON: Especially with younger men. The polling suggests that there is a disillusionment. And the Democrats do have an opportunity. And you've also seen Democrats, some Democrats, try to lean into the thirst trap lane, if you will, not the -- CORNISH: If you will.

THOMPSON: If you will.

CORNISH: Alex, it doesn't make it sound more professional if you say if you will.

DUBKE: Well, I think it -- I actually do think he made it sound more professional. I'm --

CORNISH: Are you still Googling? Are you still trying to figure out what that is?

DUBKE: Now it's a -- now it's a lane. I will do that after.

THOMPSON: All right. Thank you. That was well deserved.

CORNISH: OK.

THOMPSON: But you see, like, Abdul El-Sayed, you know, where, like --

CORNISH: Oh my gosh.

THOMPSON: The tight -- the tight black shirts. You have --

CORNISH: It's most recent ad, I think, is almost like a pseudo online dating show --

THOMPSON: Yes.

CORNISH: Pretending to be like a guy auditioning for "The Bachelor" or something.

THOMPSON: He has people come and follow him in the gym.

CORNISH: Yes.

THOMPSON: You've seen Jon Ossoff do a version of that. You've even seen, you know, this candidate, the grandson of Senator Bayh.

CORNISH: Yes.

THOMPSON: Running statewide in Indiana. Basically filmed an entire ad doing a Crossfit workout.

CORNISH: OK. It's a -- we've come a long way from Paul Ryan with his Bowflex listening to Rage Against the Machine.

THOMPSON: He was ahead of his time.

CORNISH: You were ahead of your time, Paul Ryan.

HAYS: This is an unpopular take here, but does anybody think that we should be electing people who are actually going to serve us and actually have a brain in their head and actually have values and ethics, and I don't care what they look like? CORNISH: That's delusional.

HAYS: I mean --

CORNISH: We've always cared about what they look like.

HAYS: Sorry.

CORNISH: When Nixon stood next to JFK --

HAYS: All right.

CORNISH: The jig was up. And we've all seen the stats that say the taller you are, the better your chances.

HAYS: I hear you on this, but it's sort of like --

CORNISH: So, I just think it's a little ridiculous to be like --

HAYS: But it's not working. So, maybe we should revert.

CORNISH: Who are we to care about looks? Like, we are we.

HAYS: Totally agree, but --

CORNISH: This is how Americans vote.

HAYS: But it's not working, right? Like, we can all agree the government's not working, whether you're a Democrat or Republican, it's not working for us.

CORNISH: Or whether you're hot or not.

HAYS: So, maybe we should go to the opposite side and do something different. Maybe that's the way we should it.

CORNISH: Which would be what?

HAYS: Picking --

DUBKE: Not three button Gavin, I guess.

CORNISH: Three buttons?

THOMPSON: Bring --

DUBKE: He's always got three buttons unbuttoned.

CORNISH: Is that who's fashion forward, three --

DUBKE: I mean, that's his -- that's to way, way --

HAYS: He's only a one.

CORNISH: Oh, see --

DUBKE: I've only got one. I've only got one. Yes.

CORNISH: All right --

HAYS: Says the sharpest dresser on set.

CORNISH: It's time for group chats. We're going to go to our local thirst trap, that is the one Mr. Mike Dubke. What's in your group chat?

DUBKE: So, my group chat is about --

CORNISH: Look at you laughing. Look at this silver fox ready to start the day.

DUBKE: Well, it is -- it is -- well, I -- there is so much that I'm going to have to look up at the -- after this.

CORNISH: Yes. Yes.

DUBKE: But my group chat, my group chat is about group chats.

CORNISH: OK. That's --

DUBKE: Do you name your group chat?

CORNISH: Oh, yes.

DUBKE: Or do you just let -- and then who names your group chat? Like --

CORNISH: I name -- these guys actually texted me. You guys should know, they were not like buddies before. They have actually started texting me in their own chat, which I have renamed "Heated Rivalry."

HAYS: We have our own griller (ph) chat.

DUBKE: Yes. Yes, you have.

HAYS: Thank you.

DUBKE: So, that was your power move. You renamed the group chat.

HAYS: It's not a power move.

DUBKE: It's a power move.

CORNISH: Meghan, what's in your group chat?

HAYS: Back to Bravo, since fast food is disappointing me recently.

DUBKE: Oh.

HAYS: "The Real Housewives of New York" started again with the -- this season and I'm questionable on the cast again, but I'd like to go back to the old folks, if we're being honest.

CORNISH: I like it.

HAYS: Yes.

CORNISH: I like it. That's a take. That's a take.

Go on.

THOMPSON: So, for the first time in the history of "Jeopardy," they did a public job posting for their clue writer position.

CORNISH: OK.

THOMPSON: And they had over 1,300 --

CORNISH: Yes. Because their way didn't really work the first time around, that system.

THOMPSON: And so they had over 1,300 people apply.

CORNISH: Nice.

HAYS: That's good.

THOMPSON: They had like a strict -- they had strict deadlines.

DUBKE: That sounds so --

CORNISH: Have you applied?

THOMPSON: No, because I would --

HAYS: You'd be so good at it.

THOMPSON: I would be so terrible. No.

CORNISH: You'd be really good at it.

HAYS: Oh, you would be good.

CORNISH: Yes.

THOMPSON: I have -- I have friends -- I mean, well, "The Wall Street Journal" did a -- they actually -- they did like a test, like interactive feature.

CORNISH: Oh.

THOMPSON: And I did not score well.

CORNISH: All right. Well, I have one today. I don't normally have a group chat, but I wanted to share.

DUBKE: Oh.

CORNISH: On the International Space Station there was a get ready with me video. [07:00:01]

And this is her doing her curly hair. They use no rinse shampoo. I think it's Jessica Meir who's the astronaut. And it was a process. And she talked about how, even for people who have straight hair, it can kind of turn wavy in space because there is no gravity. So, something I'm sending around in my group chats.

Anyway.

DUBKE: That was a Capri Sun.

CORNISH: Thank you guys for being with us. Thank you for waking up with us. The headlines are now.
