was referring to about bluntness probably started with taiwan, probably continued with china s nuclear expansion, which looks like, if you believe the defense department, they re going to try to get up to about a thousand weapons and begin to approach the size of the u.s. and the russian arsenals which creates a three-way nuclear dynamic that is hard to manage. human rights and hong kong and so forth. and certainly on the chinese side, the new u.s. sanctions against china that deprived china of some of the most advanced microelectronics that we and the rest of the west make in a clear effort to try to to gain some time and slow down both their military and commercial development. so, i m sure this was pretty blunt that the scareness of what we heard versus the three
plethora of scareness because i don t know what i would do in that situation. you don t even see it . i mean, i do wonder, though, what goes through your mipd now if you re up on stage giving a performance in light of seeing this. like, and howie manuel on extra this week. he said that 40 years ago his biggest fear as a comedian was not getting a laugh. but now if you overstep cancel culture they re going to come get you, come after you. obviously there was the chris rock slap at the oscars, the chapelle incident. what goes through your mind now? well, i don t live my live in fear, pam. i look at like i m always protected by good are god. i hope that nothing like this ever happens to me. i m not going to stop living my life. i m not going to stop doing
