I am here today to answer any legitimate questions and the House Oversight committee may have for me. Shall i allow hunter to give his Opening Statement first . It doesnt appear mr. Biden showed up for his public hearing. With any luck today marks the end of what may be the most spectacular failure in the history of an congressional investigations. State your iniry because we were a very important hearing what is your inquiry . It is not a stunned. I am simply asking you dont have a parliamentary inquiry . Chair recognize him mr. Chairman chairman recognizes mr. Does the committee how the Text Messages . Mr. Chairman we dont have time for games by democrats today. House Impeachment Hearing at 80 he did start, republicans and democrats taking shots at each other with two of Hunter Bidens former Business Partners. Hello and welcome everyone im sandra smith and dajohn craig to be with you. John great to be with you, what a hearing today, im john roberts in washington and this is america reports, hunter biden a noshow at todays hearing, they called his bluff and invited him to the hearing he requested. Two g. O. P. Witnesses were there to talk about the Business Dealings and republicans try to drive home their claims hunter biden sold access to his fathers political power to enrich the family. J sandra it seems democras were set on diversion tactics, Jared Moskowitz even wore a Vladimir Putin mask as you just saw there on his way in. That was a moment. Live on the hill, with the latest david, its been tense in the hearing room so far. It really has, sander and john, the hearing was heated in that heat continues to rise three hours later, it really hasnt stopped since we saw that montage, its really good idea of what we are seeing. It is really turning into a proxy fight between team trump and team biden with each Side Complaining or alleging the other candidate is worse for the white house in 2024. Hunter biden, as you said, a noshow. Not a full surprise because his attorney last week wrote congress and said essentially that hunter would not be coming to this sideshow but hunter surprised us in the past. He came to capitol hill two times since december. So you really never know with hunter biden. His name plate in front of a an empty chair, and an Influence Peddling in washington, republican say joe biden is the definition of influence ped peddling, and they are saying the same about donald trump. And tasked with digging up dirt on the biden family in ukraine as a witness for democrats today, watch. Nearly a year traveling the world and interviewing officials in Different Countries i found precisely zero evidence of the bidens a corruption in ukraine. No credible sources ever provided proof of criminal activity. Republicans on the other hand told Tony Bobulinski the former Hunter Business associate who said joe biden no question is the brand in the biden family making its living off of Influence Peddling. Joe biden was more than a participant and a beneficiary of his familys business, he was an active, aware enabler. 20 bob linsky has been saying this since 2020, also Jason Gallant is a former Hunter Business associate and serving 14 years behind bars in federal prison and had to join us virtually. He is sitting in prison for scamming worker pensions. I mean come how low can you get . Devon archer, another former Hunter Business associate, i think you see the theme here of former Hunter Associates was invited today, he declined to show up, his attorney said he would show up at a later time. Back to you. Sandra david live we will continue monitoring for our viewers. But certainly something. To have that empty chair for hunter biden with his nameplate in front of it, john. John the in Credi Credibiliy Depends On which side of the political ill use it because the democrats were happy to have let parnassus testify in person. He has been in jail for wire fraud among other things but Jason Gallant us is in jail although he had no credibility. Pick and choose your villains here, right . Sandra carry bond will dig in with us coming up and Byron Donalds will be joining us, john. John looking forward to all of that. In the interim former President TrumpRunning Out Of Time to secure a bond for nearly half a Million Dollars in his new york civil fraud case. If he cant come up with it attorney general Letitia James can start using his assets as soon as monday. Fox Team Coverage coming up now we will ask jerry baker how this can affect the 2044 race but first fox Business Correspondent lydia who, you are digging in and learning more about the challenges the former president faces in getting this unbelievably norm is bonded together . Hi, there, john, i certainly am. According to Donald Trumps lawyers and unwillingness to accept real estate as collateral was the reason about 30 Insurance Companies turns trump away, but sources tell us companies are worried about investor or public backlash. Company calling this Headline Risk which is something that can create a negative reaction for the company which happened earlier this month when Insurance Company chubb posted a near 92 million appeal bond for donald trump in another case. The federal defamation matter filed by e. Jean carroll. Last week sub about dumb atomic chubbs ceo greenberg was forced to defend that bond rating thisy realize how polarizing and emotional this case and the defendant donald trump are and how easy it would be for chubb to just say no. However, we will support the rule of law and our role in it perry we consider this the right thing to do and we, frankly, left our own personal feelings aside. One bonn expert called the letter surprising and says it could illustrate the Headline Risk other companies now seek to avoid. If there was already backlash supporting other bond or having that much of a credit risk from one individual it is certainly something they will take into consideration. You know, it is obviously not helping the case. It is not a positive. As you point out we are now only days away for the deadline for that bond, its still possible that trump could raise the capital or we could see the court agreed to a lesser amount, but if the bond does not post, you are right, the attorney general Letitia James could move to seize trumps properties and bank accounts. Send it back to you. John if she sees is the property she has start managing so we will see how that goes, lydia, thank you, sandra . Sandra jerry baker Fox News Contributor and wall street editor at large, we will put it up at the screen, we know what is at play, could be his trump tower penthouse, the wall Street Office building which we have heard from District Jane that she is interested in and golf courses and beyond. What do the coming days look like . No question its a complicated matter for donald trump but i think this has as with all his legal problems has two effects. One, it makes his life difficult. He will after raise this money somehow or face a potential seizure, i find it hard to believe that she could get away with seizing some of these properties but look he has to come up with this money somehow. As we heard these Insurance Companies are reluctant to do it because of Headline Risk so all of this complication just as a criminal case he is facing in other cases he is facing complicate his immediate ability to function and operate his campaign, but the political implication i think, sandra, are always beneficiary for donald trump. I think this looks more and more the more they do this and i dont think democrats ever really understand this or maybe they do and they are playing some of the coming game and they think they really want to run against him, is this all just reinforcing the sense that whatever you think of donald trump, lots of people dont like him and his character, but he is being hunted down in this way that is not fair for a president ial candidate. A new poll out, an important goal, One Of The Best pole in The Business Has trump seven points up and more than 20 points up among independents and for two reasons, one, people feel this effort as political and secondly they also focus on the issues that can really concern them and frankly, whether or not Letitia James seizes a golf course is not of interest to the average american in terms of what matters to them in their daily life. Sandra none of that seems to matter to the ladies on the view they are having a field day what could happen in the next few days, listen here. I mentioned saudi arabia and russia for a reason. They have motivation to give him the money because then they will own him. They almost on him now. There is no way anyone will lend money to him and i cant wait to see the chains on trump tower actually on fifth avenue. [applause] im excited about it. Sandra so there is that viewpoint, also this from ted on the former president s network. Trump claims he is a billionaire but he cant pay a 464 million judgment which means he is lying, says lou, how do i know . Math. Trump is broken is the hashtag, although he did not provide his math. Mark cuban decided to respond and said you are wrong on this topic, net worth is completely different than cash in the bank. We were in a zero Interest Rate environment for a long, long time. Keeping cash in the bank or even Money Markets was done. In fact, searching for a yield what killed small banks last year. That something you know a lot about, jerry baker. Shows how financially ignorant some of these people are. If you have 100,000 in your 401 k thats great, that doesnt mean you can splash out A Hundred Thousand dollars if the court case comes up. There be big penalties. Huge penalties, its not liquid. I dont know how much trump is worth, he is worth a lot of money but most of it is tied up in real estate. You cant immediately sell that, its even hard to raise money against it in the form of liens or mortgages or whatever. So its ridiculous, this idea is somehow underscores of how poor trump really is, but just to the point about the view, you wonder who is actually listening to this. Again, we have seen in the last week, sandra, the way the media overreached again and again and again. We saw that ridiculous nonsense in his speech when he used the term blood bad they use it again and again and they just all the time they do it they weaken the trust people have in them and it makes them believe all the things donald trump says even more. Sandra can i ask you real quick because we have a big Interest Rate decision coming up the top of the next hour, we are watching the market set of that decision, you just mentioned the reason why people wouldnt be, just keeping their money in the bank, this Interest Rate environment has changed drastically. Do you expect any big changes here . No. Therell be no change in Interest Rates today. What we are all looking for the forecast and what they will say, what powell will say, market is still expecting there to be some Interest Rate cuts later this year but inflation is resilient, sandra, its still around 3 , i think there is a growing chance we wont see rate cuts and may be increase. Sandra thats a big production from jerry baker, thank you very much we will be watching for that announcement at 2 00 eastern time about 45 minutes from now, thanks, jerry. John . John Something Else we are watching and waiting for as the policy summit in austin, texas, they will probably mention the lurching to an fro from the Court System Yesterday or the Supreme Court said texas was able to at least in the interim enforced approved diction that my Prevention Sb4 to making it illegal to cross the border which was turned by the Court Of Appeal which is in arguments on the case. So we will see with the Texas Governor has to say when he comes up to speak in just a little bit later on this afternoon. Policy it unfortunately its frustrating. John fox news gets an exclusive look at the race to track down Illegal Migrants with criminal records. Why are they out of the streets in the first place .

Com airo sandra New York City Subway crime expanding to Commuter Rails, new video shows two men fighting in a Long Island Railroad car monday during commuting hours. Police say one of the passengers slashed the other in the face with a box cutter. A third man intervened to break up that brawl. The cover of todays New York Post highlighting how unsafe new yorkers are feeling showing the nyc mayor saying this is fine while he sits in a burning room. This is real and it also highlights the cover, i have it here, john, i saw it first time this morning not just how unsafe new yorkers feel in this new poll just 30 for quality of life is good and everything is worse than six years ago is the cover here. It is something everyone is talking about and everyone feels and while we are talking about this crime happening in the city these are Commuter Rails people are going out to the suburbs and that is not good. John it is reminiscent of what happened in the mid1990s when that guy shot up the Long Island Railroad train and killed so many people. Nothing like that has happened in the ensuing decades but now it looks like the bad old days are rearing their heads again. Sandra and representing a district in new york, she is speaking out about this. She has some solutions. We will be talking to her. John looking forward to that. Meantime back to our top story, hunter biden skipping out on todays highstakes hearing months after he said he would be happy to testify in public and Lawmakers Said they would question two of his Business Partners as they will try to get to the bottom of his involvement in his sons business. The bidens so joe biden. That is their business. President biden has been continually dishonest with the American People about his knowledge of his familys busine dealings. Millions of dollars from foreign entities runs are 20 Different Companies for what . John lets bring an carrier bonds, fox news editor and counselor, todays hearing lisa boothe questions you, first of all you have any doubt that hunter biden was selling the Family Business for millions and millions of dollars . Second question, is there anything wrong with that . Third question, is there anything to try to joe biden at this point . I dont know anyone has any doubt that hunter biden was selling his data bus for his name because he didnt have the experience of the connections on his own to have gotten the business deals that he did, right . That is because its of his father, thats an easy one. The Second Question is Influence Peddling illegal, just because its dirty or doesnt feel right and it doesnt ride stomach rise to the high crime of misdemeanors which is why we are here in the first place. Three, where are we going with us . I think thats what you are asking me on this and again i think with our republicans have been trying to do stomach establish which is a direct link between what we are seeing is a payoff or doing business with the Vice President s son and obviously its critical for that to have happen while biden was Vice President or they offered him a direct payoff for a foreman to Foreign Policy decision once he left office. I dont that we have gotten there yet. I think, john, why we are still here because while people are becoming a bit tired of all of this. John that was my next one. I think the reason we are still here personally is because joe biden has continued to lie about what he knew or didnt know about his sons Business Dealings because his own son contradicted him in court. Its not like a fox news thing its like you can read the court filing and know he lied. The question is why are you lying if there is no problem. What are you trying to protect . And the other thing i thought of last week we heard from special counsel robert hur and something that came out in the testimony was that joe biden said in his interview with hur that hunter biden one is left arm. Are you really telling us . The right arm didnt know the left arm was doing . Or you didnt ask your left arm how business was going . You cant believe this stuff so here we are still. John you need serious familial compartmentalization. And what parent doesnt ask for a child how things are going especially if dropping by business lunches, of course he knew who the people were. It doesnt make sense which is why i think we are still here. When this end, i dont know. John another big case we have to ask you about of an illinois Federal District judge who said to an illegal immigrant to the federal laws prohibiting you from owning a firearm and possessing a firearm dont apply in your case because there is a federal law that prohibits people in this country illegally from possessing a firearm but she said go ahead, i like you, you are an exception to the role. What does that all about . Thats the rationale which is crazy. Like you said theres a federal law in the book sets as Noncitizens Cannot possess firearms. So there was an illegal individual in illinois who had a gun, got arrested, case is before the court, the judge said that federal law i just mentioned is constitutional on its face however as applied to you, we will make an exception because i look back at the history of gun laws in this country as we do now when we look to see if a gun law is good or not and we see if we make exceptions and she went back, this is true, to the american revolution. She said it turns out there were some british loyalists who were assessed as being okay and safe so they were allowed to have guns. To defend themselves. So, because you also, sir, are not a criminal, you have a job, you can have this gun and that is that. John what was he arrested for . I think it was for having this gun. So he doesnt have a criminal record or a history but look, even though it is specific to this individual, you know the question is once the toothpaste is out of the tube how do you put it back in . How other similarly situated how will they not raise this if they come before a judge . Facing a similar problem . John good to get your take on this, thank you so much. Sandra . Sandra box cameras were rolling as i. C. E. Agents arrested three mexican nationals in los angeles, all three have lengthy criminal histories and were in the country illegally, a Film Allusion was embedded with the ic stomach ice details how are they making it easier to do the job . I assessed were completely alone when they have to target these dangerous aliens on the streets of l. A. We embedded with ice and saw them arrest three convicted felons. Its 4 00 a. M. In los angeles and this team of officers has some targets, a mexican woman previously convicted of trafficking opioids in l. A. She was Selling Opioids for me shop in one of the local areas. To minors. After surveilling the area she has spotted leaving her home in a pickup truck. I. C. E. Officers swung the street, pulled over and arrest her. Ice says she is a convicted felon who has artie been deported from the u. S. Four times during her intake, ice found several thousands of dollars in cash on her. The convicted felon is behind me getting processed right now and ice tells us but because of her criminal history she could be deported as soonest tonight. Moments later i. C. E. Officers bring in another convicted felon they have just arrested, a mexican man with convictions for Trafficking Mass and domestic violence. It is frustrating. Do you have any presence of the gel whatsoever . No. Ice blames those policies were having to arrest this third felon of the day. Previously convicted of Trafficking Mass and being a felon in possession of a gun. Ice says he was released without notice after local authorities ignore the request to hold him. The Sanctuary Policy . Think tory policy. Ice says there l. A. Officers arrested over 3,000 criminal noncitizens in fiscal year 2023 including 249 suspended gang members with limited manpower, their priority is Public Safety threats. Sex offenders, child molesters, that misconception we are out there indiscriminately conducting raids at checkpoints is simply far from the truth. Ice says there officers are frequently arresting illegal aliens who have artie been deported from the United States before, sometimes deported multiple times under u. S. Law, illegal reentry is a felony says they would like to see, ice federal prosecutors start posing some stricter consequences. We will send it b back to you. Bill melugin with that live from l. A. , john . John down to o austin, texas, lets see if he mentions sp for. Governors that live up to promises they make, one thing many of you do not remember is from the Texas House Of Representatives in a state of the state address, i promise as governor i would reunite the texas and im football game. Now that is happening. [applause] but i want to talk to you about the successes of tpp f, obviously a Public Policy organization. There is one thing to be involved in Public Policy, but Public Policy unto itself is really kind of meaningless unless it is actually translated into action and into laws. If you look at what has happened over the course of just the past year i think more has been done that was set forth initially by at tpf this last year than ever in the history of the texas Public Policy foundation. [applause] so much so i cannot squeeze it all into a four our speech. But let me mention just a few. One thing that was mentioned that needs to be expanded upon because what was achieved during this last session concerning Property Tax Cuts . Remember, it was at tppf john politics are local and the governor of texas greg abbott is talking to the texas Public Policy foundation about the recent legislative session and the importance of having Public Policy discussed in a forum like that. We will keep monitoring it for you to see if he talks about sbt yesterday allowed to temporarily go into effect and the fifth Circuit Court of appeals pulled the rug out from under his feet and im sure he will have something to say during his speech, four hours he has a lot to talk about.

As Gang Violence in haiti escalates and the u. S. Considers evacuation options, our brian is on the border with haiti, how Many Americans are still trying to get out of this . John, at this point we still believe it is a thousand americans stranded in haiti and the state Department Just moments ago announcing Helicopter Evacuations of americans are taking place to today. On board a chartered helicopter flights from portauprince, haiti, to the capital of the Dominican Republic, santo domingo. Those flights whether or not they continue will depend on demand and the situation on the ground, listen. We do expect these Helicopter Movements to make multiple trips in order to try and get as Many American citizens as we can to day. We will also continue to look at what options may be available. Today at this Border Crossing we met americans paul and gillian, two Jehovah Witness who lived in kept there headed to california. Its deafly the worst that has been since we have lived here but some protests, once a week or so. This is that wonderful country, just having some problems right now and we hope it passes. We will be back in two months to see what happens. Now fighting between rival gangs and the last function in hades there are worries that it could spiral into a de facto anarchy after one of the most powerful and gang leaders curled stomach called no affected elecd officials and their skepticism whether they will recognized to start a new government, these and also concerns about a Haitian Migrant Exodus in the u. S. But also in the united in the Dominican Republic some 4,000 Prison Inmates have escaped from two prisons in haiti and they have dominican patrols that he stepped up along the border, they are touting their new border wall and they are pretty much defending their deportations of haitians. Anyway, back over here to the border, we have been told some 400 americans have left haiti through this mean Border Crossing since march 1st. I will note those Helicopter Evacuations today by the State Department are the first charter rescue flights they have organized since sunday when a Charter Flight took off to miami with over 30 americans, john . And with the update from the Dominican Republic, thank you periods the iranians are determined to tax Stomach Attack the United States whether it iso avenge deaths or settlements onf their critics or to kill the ambassador of an allied nation. Sandra stark warnings from Counterterrorism Leaders as the House Panel Examines the growing threat of iranianbacked Terrorist Groups and what it means to National Security lets bring in retired general Keith Kellogg, thank you for joining us. What do we need to know about these threats . Sandra outcome of the are real. You have to watch for it but there is a Bigger Picture to this. The reason those threats become real is because there is a lack of confidence, actually more than lack of confidence. It is a belief they can actually push the United States because we have not pushed back on these throughout the region in the middle east as well so its really hard to reestablish that insurance level to make sure they dont do it. You have to go to the source and the surrogates as well to make sure they understand if you prosecute a crime or try to do a hit on american there will be consequences. Think about what happened when we went after solo money on the 3rd of january 2020. We didnt just go after solomonic, we went after our pnf leader was a pro irani and militia leader. We had him the same time we hit solo monia so we sent a message to the proxies by hitting him with the pmf forces and also the threats are real. I think beginning to get this belief is a Bigger Picture in the Bigger Picture is simply and i dont think they have to fear anymore because of a lack of leadership. They dont believe they will get hit hard or be hit when it is necessary and you are seeing this all through the region not only in the middle east but in the far east end europe as well. It is a problem we will have to reset the table on. By the way, Resetting The Table is really hard. You cannot just do it by saying we are going to do this, you actually have to take a concrete action and those will have to be hard action and very, very dedicated and disciplined to do it. When you do that it sort of resets the table and we have not done that in the middle east. Sandra general i know youve been sounding the alarm on that for quite some time. This is the fbi counterterror official robert wells on the threat he says poses right in the country. The concern is the primary Strategic Partner with totalitarian attacks against u. S. Officials not only oversees but in the u. S. Duron is capable of a variety of options including Cyber Operations to sabotage public and private infrastructure. Sandra general how do we defend against that . Well. To start with i am on that hit list. Because it goes back to when we took out sold them on a and there are others like Robert Obrien and former National Security advisor. You tell them quite clearly, you tell them if this happens, we are coming straight for the Supreme Leader and going down to make sure you pay an enormous price for it. You cannot tolerate it and thats what you have to tell them and follow up with actions. If you do not do it, it is just words and you have to have action behind words. So it is something we have to be aware of and the possibility of it happening there and the potential of it happening is there and we must be prepared to react when necessary. Sandra general Keith Kellogg appreciate your time, so thank you for joining us. John .

How many terrorists are roaming the United States as we speak . The answer is no one knows. However, if you saw it fbi director ray said last week, he says Baseball Stomach based on whats happening at our southern border he expects her to be a tc attack similar to 9 11. You cannot have a number of people coming across the border who are terrorists and not expect anything different. Also these rumors you have heard about venezuela letting dangerous criminals out of prison to come to america are true. And the same thing is true about countries in central and south america and across the globe. As well as a number of chinese coming here and who knows what their intent is . When they come here because of that . And because joe biden is very simply not following the law of the United States of america. You will know just a couple of weeks ago he was telling all of you and all of his fellow americans he needed congress to pass some laws in order for him to have the ability to secure the border. Either a, he was outright lying to you, b, he had no idea what he was talking about. Or c, all of the above. [laughter] i think its all of the above. Let mee clear about something. Congress has already passed laws that give thy tool he needs. Laws that existed before biden became president. I want you to know these in case you ever engage in a discussion with anybody, the republicans in Congress Need to step up and do something, these laws already exist right now. Law number one empowers or not empowers it compels or requires the president to deny illegal intrigue into the United States of america. Hes not denying illegal intrigue, he is aiding and abetting illegal entry. Law number two, requires the president is a mandate that he detains anybody who comes across the board he illegally. Coming across the board illegally is defined as this. Coming between the ports of entry. There are 28 ports of entry in the state of texas alone that people could cross and try to seek asylum if that is what they wanted to do, but instead they are coming between points of entry sometimes under the bridge right above them that is a port of entry. Law number three. Requires the president to build Border Barriers like borde border walls, more like the barriers texas is putting up right now. Joe biden has done nothing to build any type of Border Barrier. The only thing he has ever done with Border Barriers is try to tear down the ones texas has put on our border. It is because of these reasons. Because, number one, we are facing such dangerous situations and number two, joe biden through his actions as violating the laws of the United States of america. That is exactly why i declared our authority under article one transsection ten texas has the t to defend ourselves and we will use that authority to declare an invasion and fight back against that invasion. [applause] so let me tell you what we are doing. Number one, texas is the only state in history of the United States to build our own border wall. And we are not reinventing the wheel here, we are building the exact same wall President Trump put up with one difference. When you look up the miles texas has already put up of the trump Supporter Wall, and the numbers under construction right now, texas is adding more of the trump Supporter Wall in texas then donald trump put up and render those big orange means we put in the rio grande . They were designed by the Border Patrol because they were completely effective at denying illegal entry across the river. We put them in the river because joe biden wouldnt use them. What do you think biden did when we put them in the river . He filed a lawsuit to put a stop to it. This lawsuit is working its way through the federal courts and is subject to an en banc, whatever you want to call it, in the Court Of Appeals, they will hear oral arguments on that case and may of this year. But i want you to know even if biden has tied this issue up in the courts, those buoys remain in the Rio Grande River as we gather today. [applause] and then there is this island, front and island which is an island in the rio grande between mexico and texas and many times the size of this room. That island is owned by the state of texas. But it was kind of not useful because it was filled with nothing other than cane and brush and trees and shrubs that were packed far closer together than the audience is sitting today. The cartels found a use for it. The cartels found they could smuggle people as well as contraband to that island for mexico and then they can move from the island under the state of texas. So i told the Texas National guard i want you to go sees that island and purge it from any cartel activity, and that is exactly what they did. [applause] and then when they accomplish that, they built a land bridge from the state of texas onto that island and they used bulldozers when they got to the island to completely flatten the island of any of the cane and trees and brush and things like that so they could never again be used by the cartels or by Illegal Immigrants as a way station. And now that island is about as clear as the floor on which i am sisitting here today. Nothing there except one thing, the flag of the great state of texas is on that island. [applause] so that was done by our National Guard. The National Guard has played a pivotal role in what is going on. There are thousands of National Guard on duty as we gather here for lunch. In the meantime the task they entertained is to build mile after mile of razor wire Border Barrier to deny illegal entry into the United States. In fact they have rebelled and turned back to mexico more than 100,000 people. They are adding more as we speak today. And it was the National Guard who are professionals at building this razor wire, when i saw the way that joe biden was violating the laws of the United States of america in shelby park and eagle pass, texas, thats when they ordered the Texas National guard john Texas Governor greg abbott beginning before the summit on various aspects of immigration, starting by addressing sb4 which is the texas law making it illegal for a person to cross into texas from mexico without permission. That is temporarily suspended while the Court Of Appeals listen to oral arguments today and it sound like the fifth circuit may be considering allowing parts of that law to go into effect while other parts remain suspended. Sandra and message from the Texas Governor and also a very firm message about the laws already being on the books for the president to deal with this crisis. Obviously the blame game going around and democrats pending republicans down for money to solve the crisis. Very interesting we will continue to monitor that, john.
