In the law and society. And i just hope somebodys not misapplying it for profit here. I think youre being listen, i think youre being very jgenerous and careful as yu should be. I am not. Because this is where our judicial system, the legal system, the Court System should look at. Because someone should say get out of my courtroom with this. That should happen but thats not what this is about. Good luck with them for all of that, fine. But it also for legitimate issues when it comes to what youre talking about, it diminishes that. Because there are people who have real issues that should be in the court of law, and the legal system is overrun with people who file these lawsuits that should not i mean barely have the merit or whatever but the system can account for it. You have sanctions, you be frivolous lawsuits if someone had put my naked picture as a kid on on an album i would be saying look at me, thats me as a kid. Thats how most people should. Thats how that person should be and they did it for years. So stop the b. S. Its b. S. And to say its not about money, it is about money. Theres money attached to the lawsuit so obviously asking them to remove and tell them you dont want any money. I think whats going to hurt look, every lawsuit has to survive summary judgment, which is if you assume all the fack as presented by the plaintiff do you have a claim upon which relief should be granted under the law . I dont know this survive because if you assume all the facts even the way the guy did, it doesnt make any sense because just now . This isnt hey i remember what someone did to me way back when and it was so horrible i psychologically suppressed it. Hes been well aware of what it was. It is an interesting thing. Heres what a judge should say. Take this out of my courtroom, please. Yeah, but that may be what happen. That should happen because otherwise people are going to continue to do that. And any any Law Firm worth its salt should say to these people, stop it. Stop it. If you look at the Law Firm it does a lot of important work. I dont know about the Law Firm. Im just saying looking at this just the threat and the cultural place where we are right now whats okay and what isnt and whats the standard. Take a look around how people are portraying the Album Cover when discussing this story. Take a Look And Youll see what is interesting to me about it, which is just the threat of being on the wrong side of something thats cultural right now sparks quick responses. Why is the Album Cover even back in the zeitgeist, back in the ethos. Its because of this. Unless youre a fan i never even thought about it, never even saw the kids genitalia. I just saw it as a cute money and theyre talking about grasping for money. And the album meant something beyond. If he was never paid in the beginning, if his parents were never paid for the image, thats one thing. Thats a thing. If youre going to say this is child pornography, thats whats your parents . What do your parents have to do with it . Do they have an obligation here . Is there an onus on them . They do. The father has told the story before. Look, we know what this is about. Its capturing peoples attention, and it was worth pushing around that was a good story. Ill tell you Something Else that matters a whole lot more and kind of triggers the same sense of whats right and whats wrong. And i am very im more worried tonight about afghanistan than i have been any night up until now in this new phase of Bidens Administration arguably botching the exit, which is you cannot be focused on a deadline right now. You have to get your people out. Phil mudd who knows way better about this stuff than i do, he says theres no good answer. But there can be a worse answer, which is if you leave you guarantee anyone whos left behind is going to be in a bad way, and they will be looked at, and they will be hunted and there will be recriminations. If you stay past the deadline, that may cause problems but that assumes that the taliban really wants to get down against the united states of america. If you leave and you leave americans behind, god forbid, or you leave allies behind, you guarantee they have problems. Do you guarantee problems if you stay beyond the 31st . I dont know that. Youre never going to get everybody out. Theyre going to try. I actually think theyre doing a good job of getting people out. Look at the Tens Of Thousands of people theyve gotten out. I think the administration has done a good job. Those images initially what happened, did that reflect poorly on the united states, absolutely. But theyre doing a good job now because they screwed up the job originally so i dont want to give them too much credit. Thats fine. But i want to give them the credit because thats a lot of people but they had to get them out because they screwed up the exit. But they had to get them out anyways. Not like this. Had they renegotiated the deal in the last seven months theyd have to do it on their own time. In seven months it is an impossibly to get every single person out of the country who wants to get out of afghanistan. Thats not our job. Our job is to get americans and vuteejic allies. Youre making my point, but that is my Breaking News. So im going to get to it. I love you, d. Lemon. Ill see you soon. This is don lemon tonight. I have to begin with the Breaking News and it is out of afghanistan. Thats what i was just telling chris. I want to get to it. Citing Security Threats here it is, citing Security Threats americans have been warned to stay away from the Kabul Airport and those at three gates have been told to leave and do it immediately. That amid fears whats being called a very specific Threat Stream from isisk about planned attacks against crowds outside the airport. And those crowds have been growing. More than 10,000 people swarming the airport today. A u. S. Defense official tells cnn there are real concerns isisk, a sworn enemy of the taliban, wants to create mayhem. They want to do it amid fears that theyre capable and planning multiple attacks. That as the White House says 19,000 people were evacuated over a 24hour period. More than 82,000 evacuated under u. S. Military and coalition flights since august 14th. Did you hear that . More than 82,000. Thats a lot of people evacuated on u. S. Military and coalition flights since august 14th. Secretary of state Tony Blinken, an Tony Blinken says there could be as many as 1,500 americans still in afghanistan. And he says efforts to evacuate americans and afghan allies will continue past the Troop Withdrawal on August 31st. There is no deadline on our work to help any remaining citizens who decide they want to leave to do so along with the many afghans who have stood by us over these years and want to leave and have been unable to do so. That effort will continue every day past August 31st. So the White House is saying that they are looking at options to make sure americans can still leave afghanistan after the end of the month. The story is coming out of kabul tell you just how chaotic the situation at the airport still is. One woman and her two children tried nearly a dozen times to get in for a flight to join her husband, a u. S. Citizen, finally making it through when she dressed her Baby Daughter in yellow and held her over her head so that she could be seen after sending a photo of her to marines in a whatsapp group. And were learning tonight about 20 San Diego students from a School District with kids ranging in age from preschool to Eighth Grade who have traveled to afghanistan this summer to visit family and now unable to get to the airport. Weve got more on this story. That is coming up. In the midst to the race against time in afghanistan, the president is not losing sight of his agenda here at home and his promises to americans. Does he think the build back better plan is as urgent and as time sensitive as this evacuation of americans and afghan friendlies from kabul . Well, first of all, i think its important to the american people who care deeply about whether theyre going to have jobs, whether theyre going to have child care, whether we are going to be able to compete with china and countries around the world to understand that we have to do multiple things at the same time. Thats exactly what any President Of The United States has to do. Right at the top of the president s domestic agenda, covid. More than 100,000 americans are hospitalized with the virus. A number we havent seen since last winter. The number of cases in children soaring. Texas Childrens Hospital reporting a Record Number of kids hospitalized. And with the back to School Season and delta running rampant, there are worries that it could get worse. 28. 8 of the eligible population. 28. 8 of the eligible population 12 and up is not yet vaccinated. Even after the fda gave full approval to the Pfizer Vaccine this week. Some folks dont want vaccines. But Take A Look at this, all right. They dont want vaccines, but look at this. This is a line for Monoclonal Antibody Treatments in tampa. Again, Thats Emergency Authorization as well. That as the mask wars are heating up across the country with deadly information Running Wild from antimaskers. Theres a lot of good guys out there ready to do bad things soon. Watch whats coming. These these mandates are against the why so angry . Its a mask. And then netheres a School Board Meeting in South Carolina and the outrageous bogus Conspiracy Theory that the cdc is somehow plotting to turn schools into Concentration Camps. The cdc is considering what is called the approach to prevent covid19. It is a plan to Shutdown Schools and to use them as camps to physically isolate men, women and children. Now, we know that Concentration Camps were something that the nazis did, but it can come here at any moment, and we need to be aware. Just because you can have kids doesnt mean you should. Yeah, i said it. And it would be funny if it werent for the fact that peoples lives are at stake. The misinformation, the lies, theyre killing us. And then there is the Big Lie, of course, that fueled one of the darkest days in american history, January 6th. Thats when bloodthirsty rioters tried to overthrow our free and fair president ial election, Hunting Lawmakers forced to run for their lives. Beating police, american heroes trying to defend the seat of our democracy. The house select committee investigating January 6th demanding documents from a long list of Government Agencies including the doj, The Pentagon, the fbi, Homeland Security and The National Archives, keeper of the previous administrations White House records. They also want documents and communications related to members of the Trump Family including melania trump, ivanka trump, jared kushner, Eric Trump and the former guys oldest Son And Namesake Donald Trump, jr. You remember he said this about lawmakers who were just about to vote on January 6th to certify Joe Bidens electoral College Victory Right before crowds of violent trump supporters marched on capitol. Here it is. You can be a hero or you can be a zero. And the choice is yours, but we are all watching. The whole world is watching, folks. Choose wisely. Whos he talking about there . You can be a hero or you can be a zero. Choose wisely. Sorry. Sorry. The committee also looking for records from Election Deniers like rudy giuliani. Lets have trial by combat. And looking for evidence of the former Guys Pressure Campaign to overturn Election Results in georgia. So, look, all i want to do is this. I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have, because we won the state. With those last few Sound Bites it should be like Circus Music or loony tunes music, and we lived through that. Can you believe that . We lived through that. Thats the actual truth. Thats when comedians especially late night hosts didnt really have to write anything. They would just play the words back that the folks actually said. Well, he is saying now hes going to invoke executive Privilege And Attempt to block requests from the committee. We already knew they want Telecommunication Companies to preserve Phone Records of several people including some members of congress. And some of them might be pretty worked up about that. Remember this. This is just last month, right . This is congressman jim Jordan Hemming and hawing trying not to make eye contact, thrown for a loop by one very simple question. Did you speak with the thenpresident on January 6th . Did you speak with President Trump on January 6th . Yeah, i mean i spoke with the president last week. I speak with the president all the time. I talk with President Trump all the time, and i dont think thats unusual. I would expect members of congress to talk with the President Of The United States when theyre trying to get done the things they tell the voters in their district to do. Im actually kind of amazed sometimes people keep of course i talk with the president like i said i talked with him last week. On January 6th did you speak with him before, during or after the capitol was attacked . Id have to i spoke with him that day after i think after. I dont know if i spoke with him in the morning or not. I just dont know. Id have to go back i mean, i dont know that when those conversations happened. But what i know is i spoke with him all the time. Oh, boy. You speak with him all the time. You spoke with him on January 6th, maybe after but you have to go back but you dont know when those conversations happened but all you know is that you spoke with him all the time. Recognize this phrase . Come on, man. So youre trying to tell us you dont remember when you spoke to the President Of The United States when this was happening, on this day, the day the capitol was attacked by rioters. This was going on that day and playing out on Television Screens and you dont remember . A Day None of us will forget. We saw it all live on our tv. Like i said before the misinformation and the lies, theyre killing us and dilling our democracy. The misinformation and the lies about covid and about the Big Lie that fueled the attack on the united states capitol. We got to get a handle on all of it. As mentioned in our Breaking News, an ominous Warning Tonight that americans should stay away from the airport in kabul, and anybody whos already there should leave immediately. What does this mean for desperate people still trying to escape the taliban with time running out . There is a threat. This has been a dangerous place that has had threats by isis.

The u. S. Embassy in kabul advising u. S. Citizens at a number of gates at the Kabul Airport to, quote, leave immediately. Leave immediately citing Security Threats outside the gates. Australia also warning its citizens saying theres an ongoing and very high threat of terrorist attack. State department says there are about 1,500 people who may be americans left in afghanistan. So joining me now the legendary journalist sam donaldson, and cnn Military Analyst and retired general mark hurtling. So glad to have both of you on. General, of course im going to start with you. Cnn reported earlier today there are concerns about security around the airport in kabul have increased based on, quote, a very serious Threat Stream from isisk about planned attacks against crowds outside the airport. Now this ominous Warning Tonight. Whats your assessment of whats happening there on the ground . Yeah, its something ive been talking about for a while on cnn and various programs. This is all part of a neo operation, youre going to have different phases of the operation. We saw the first couple of days being the chaotic phase and it moved out and we were starting to get a lot of folks out. Were now in the time when the enemy is about to get a vote or theyre trying to get a vote. And thats why the embassy issued this Warning Tonight. I dont think this is the end of the evacuation, but were going to go into another phase here pretty soon if we can contain any threats to the airfield. Were going to go into a phase where we end this thing. And there are going to be some last flights out. Its going to be heart wrenching. Theres going to be Equipment Moved and soldiers ready to defend the runway and defend the final airplanes going out, but its going to be difficult. The alert, general, says anyone at three of the Airport Gates should leave immediately and u. S. Citizens should avoid traveling to and from the airport and avoid Airport Gates unless specifically instructed to go there. Does It Sound to you these gates and the people around them have become targets . Yes, absolutely. And ive been saying this for a couple of days that as a guy who planned and almost executed a neo, the biggest concern you have is when the enemy does get that vote. And what i see from my experience in iraq and other combat zones, those gates with the literally thousands of people is a huge danger zone, don. That you know, it would be embarrassing for both the taliban, which we dont really care if its embarrassing to them. But it would be dangerous for the folks trying to get on the flight. A vehicle borne explosive device, ive seen those exploded gates and then hard targets. And they will potentially kill tens or hundreds of people. And thats exactly what the embassy is trying to avoid right now when weve got that crush of humanity outside those three gates. Got it. Sam donaldson, the president was briefed on Contimpancy Plans but remains committed to that August 31st deadline. And now tonight we have an ominous warning. If the threat is so urgent, what decisions do you expect him to make in these critical days remaining . Well, this urgent threat is one the President Of The United States will have to meet and make certain that its turned back with all the power we have assuming we can turn it back. You know, im horrified at whats happening over there. All americans are. The chaos, the threat to us, the threat to afghans, the threat to afghan women later on. Dont have a cold heart about these things. But Joe Biden has gotten one thing right, the most important thing, the essential thing. After 20 years and 80 Billion and all of our efforts, hes getting out. And know after this another mother, another american mother will not see her Son Or Daughter in the military come back from afghanistan in a body bag. We lost 58,000 in vietnam yet have relationships with that country. I would like to see perfect relationships or good relationships with afghanistan, but its a different country with different people, different religion, different people who want i think to do evil to us, so we cant do it. But we are getting out and thats important. Sam, following the fall of kabul a lot of comparisons were made to the fall of saigon. Are those comparisons still fair to make as the u. S. Operation reaches its final days . Theyve ramped up the operation since then. Theyve gotten i think they said 82,000 people out. I think its like 1,500 they say may be americans who are left there. Now, that doesnt include our afghan allies, but theyve really ramped up their efforts. Is that a fair comparison . Theyve done a terrific job. We didnt have it that hard in vietnam. Our secretary of state, henry ki kisenger, had made a deal with the North Korean negotiators. Let us out, dont press us, give us a decent interval than whatever happens is not our business. So in 1973 all of our prisoners came out. John mccain came out except for a very few and two years the North Vietnamese kept their word. And like a wolf coming down the North Vietnamese swept in weeks down through saigon. And the few americans left clutched our flag to his breast and the last helicopter took off. We didnt have this chaos then because the North Vietnamese kept their word. I dont think the taliban will keep their word. I dont think the general trust them, and i dont think americans who have been over there and know them far better than i do are going to truts them. And its unfortunate, but right now the thing is get out. I want you to respond, general. Let me ask you this question as youre responding to that. Based on the few, you know, americans left, it seems to be the case some of those people are not directly near the airport. The pentagon confirmed there are performing Extraction Operations by helicopters to get people there. How difficult is it to organize and pull off these kind of missions . I wont comment on whether or not were doing that, don. Im smart enough not to do that, but i will tell you that the special operating forces that conduct Extraction Operations are extremely welltrained. They do it in a precise manner. It is difficult when youre talking about an area thats as wide as some of the areas they might be going into in afghanistan. So, yeah, its tough, No Doubt about it. But weve seen over the last couple of days as the Evacuation Operation has continued some unbelievable Courage And Heroism and empathy of all service members, not just Special Operators and some of the afghan Special Operators that are at the airfield but especially in the marines and army that are guarding the field. But and i say this as an army guy, those pilots that are flying those c17s and c130s are doing some phenomenal work. I heard a story about a Pilot Today when his Crew Chief told him there were 00 bodies onboard and did he have enough power to take off, and he just said watch me. Thats the kind of hireoism these young captains and majors flying these aircraft are conducting. Thank you both, gentlemen. Thank you, sam, i appreciate it.

The house select committee investigating the January 6th Capitol Insurrection pushing to get documents from multiple Government Agencies, and the request is absolutely massive. The Committee Digging Into Trump and his role in the riot. And they are seeking records relating to dozens of people that he had communications with. Trump already vowing to invoke Executive Privilege to fight the requests. Lets discuss now. Cnns senior Law Enforcement Analyst and former Fbi Deputy director mr. Andrew mccabe is here. Hes the author of the threat, how the fbi protects america in the age of terror and trump. Good evening, sir. Lots to talk about. Its been a little bit. Its good to see you. So the committee is demanding a huge trove of documents across eight agencies including the doj, the fbi and The National Archives, which holds the trump administrations records. What does the scope of this tell you about what the committee is looking for . Well, don, i take it as a very good sign. I was ive been skeptical of how well the committee would execute their responsibilities here from the very beginning. You know, with their undeniably and unavoidable political origins i was concerned they wouldnt really go for broke. But ive got to tell you this Document And Information request is a very good sign that they are, in fact, embracing all the possible aspect of this attack on our democracy. What led to it, the information that each agency had leading up to it, what happened the day of the attack, what sort of communications were happening between people in the White House, between folks in the White House and on the hill, and then of course how we handled the aftermath. So i think its a good sign the committee is being aggressive and theyre going to be as complete as they can. The Remformer Guy saying he going to invoke Executive Privilege, weve seen that before. Do you think Itll Work this time . Itll be interesting to watch. As you mentioned weve all been down this road before, but theres a lot at stake here in this request. And every agency, every entity, The National Archives are not going to be able to wholesale deny the requests simply because the president may be mounting some sort of a legal challenge. You know, The National Archives we have laws and regulations in this country that require The National Archives to preserve these sorts of records for exactly this purpose. So we may end up litigating around the edges particularly around some of the specific White House information, but theres a lot of that the other agencies have to offer here, and i think theres you know, well probably have more success getting information from dhs, from the fbi and from doj. They are trying to look at trumps every move on and around January 6th. They want documents related to his wife melania and his children. Former White House official allies close to him like rudy giuliani. If you were on this committee what would you want to see the most . Well, i think those things that youve mentioned are particularly interesting because as we know several of those folks were present at the rally on January 6th before the attack on the capitol. So its only logical that you would want to know what sort of conversations and communications they had leading up to their presence in that rally, maybe after the rally, conversations about what was happening as it was happening. So that stuff i think would be fascinating if we can get it. But for me, don, the really most significant information here is understanding what the agencies and particularly the fbi knew about the Threat Picture in the days and weeks leading up to January 6th and how they handled that information. What sort of decisions they made about it, what sort of assumptions they may have built into their assessments and how they handled that information. I think thats where we have really some room to improve on the obvious failure of January 6th. When i said it was wide ranging and wide reaching, they also want documents related to the discussion of the 25th Amendment of november 3rd, 2020, to january 20th. A lot of this stuff they request you dont know if theyre going to get it, but why would they want to see that . Boy, thats a fascinating one. And that Request Led me to wonder, you know, what have they been tipped off that might be out there . You know, what sorts of communications and interactions between folks maybe in the White House, maybe Cabinet Level officials may have been taking place that none of us are even aware of yet . So it wouldnt be it wouldnt be odd for some of these very specific requests to be targeting things the committee already has information knows exists. You know, we dont know that for a fact yet, but itll be interesting to see as we go down the road here. Thank you very much, andy mccabe.

President biden and his administration juggling serious issues both internationally and domestically evacuating thousands of americans and others from afghanistan with the deadline to withdraw just days away. While also focusing on getting his economic agenda through congress and pushing americans to get vaccinated against covid19. Theres a lot to discuss. Hes a pollster and communications strategist, and we know him while hes back state side. Good to see you, frank. Thank you. Does it feel weird being back . For the first 24 hours. Now it actually feels good to be back. But, don, im leaving again in about seven days. Going back to the motherland. And i look forward to returning. Well, lets talk about whats happening overseas, okay . So theres so much attention with whats happening in afghanistan, the way it fell to the taliban. But is this a big priority for the american people with everything else, the economy, infrastructure, covid . Its the higher priority than Foreign Policy normally is because we see whats happening in afghanistan. And don, the key component here is actually not just the policy. Its the visuals. You see an airport in chaos. You see people falling off of planes. It reminds them what happened on 9 11 and the reactions are very negative. I want to emphasize its not actually whats happening right now that im focused on as a pollster. Im looking at what happens in the weeks and months to come. What happens to schools for women, what happens to terrorists. Are we marked across the globe, or is the taliban truly different . What the president is looking at right now is not just whats happening in august of 2021. What really matters is over the next six months and 12 months. And one more point, Foreign Policy is only an issue for the White House. It is rare that congressional races ever turn down a forp policy issue. So were looking at 2024 thats impacted rather than the offyear, offseason elections of 2022. Got it. So if we look at president Bidens Handseling of the issues, this is just a poll from nbc news. The situation in afghanistan, just 25 approved. On the economy 47 approve. Coronavirus, 53 approve. The afghanistan numbers are low. But if the White House can contain the fallout and get everyone out, will it matter in longterm as you said in 2024 . Because youre looking ahead. Im also looking at the attributes. Do you believe in what the president says . Do you believe he has a command of the facts . Do you believe that he is agile and flexible to take into account whats happening . We always talk about issues because thats how weve looked at campaigns, and thats how weve looked at politics. But the fact is and this goes back really to Ronald Reagan and the last 40 years. The attributes, do you trust that individual . Do you have confidence in them . Do you have Peace Of Mind . Those are even more important than the issues. And i also look at trends. And the president got started got a very good start february and march. His numbers were much higher than Donald Trumps even though trump doesnt want to acknowledge that. But those numbers have fallen back much quicker than they did for Donald Trump four years ago. And i know that the White House in its heart of hearts is very concerned right now because its not just afghanistan where the numbers have fallen. But theyre 10 points lower on the economy, 10 points lower on covid than they were in february and march. And what politicians do is they look at trends, at the actual number where it is right now but the trend over the last three, four, five months and the trend is not good for the president at this moment. Lets talk about covid now. Between the seriousness of this Delta Variant and pfizer getting full fda approval, will more Skeptics Rollup their sleeves and get the shot . What are you hearing . So im hearing good news and Bad News. The good news is that youre going to see a surge in vaccines over the next 30 days. The combination of the fda, the Delta Variant which inpublic is aware of and very concerned about. The fact there are now mandates in offices and in places of employment. These are all having an impact. Thats the good news. And the Bad News is that i believe you can now pinpoint a number where we will not climb above. And when you bring Health Experts on you should ask them about this. I dont think were going to get above 75 vaccinated based on what Polling Numbers show and based on where we are right now. So were going to go way above our current level, but i dont think were going to get to the levels dr. Fauci and people at the cdc want us to be at. The consequences of that are significant because it means that we will be susceptible to variants, and some of them can be even worse than they are right now. And the last point, which is one youve been making on your show again and again is that there are some people that just wont respond to the facts. They wont respond to the information. And what the american people want more than anything else is the truth. And theyre getting the truth, and theyre still saying no to the vaccine. I dont know how to overcome that. Yeah. And saying no to the vaccine and some of them though lining up for a monoclonal antibody therapy, which makes no sense. Quickly before i have to let you go. Youve done this polling on how americans see the country. What is that . Its very negative. And by the way theres a word for americans who wont respond to the truth and the facts. We call them the shuga, and a jewish word. And theres billions of dollars spent, trillions of dollars to bring our country back after covid and yet youve got only a third of americans who believe their country is invested in them and their future. Weve got now just under believe that america is a failed country. This stuff makes me very nervous. I understand the anger. I understand the frustration. I dont understand the violence. But i get it that people feel disappointed. But i dont think this country is a failed country. Whether youre a democrat or a republican, theres something for everyone in america and we always come back, the fact that we are so negative and pessimistic, i think we need to talk about it. The numbers suggest its only getting worse over the past few months. Frank luntz, thank you, appreciate it. Ill see you soon. Be well. Thank you.

A majority of florida voters are not happy with how gop governor Ron Desantis is handling the pandemic. 51 disapprove of the Governors Response to the Coronavirus Crisis and things are not going well in the state, with metrics trending in the wrong direction. Last week, florida reported more deaths than any other time throughout the pandemic. And daily cases and hospitalizations in the state are also at record highs. A majority of florida voters also disagree with how desantis is handling schools. And the Coronavirus Situation in florida schools, not good. Not good at all. Almost 12,000 students have tested positive for coronavirus this year across floridas 15 largest districts. Thousands of students and teachers have had to quarantine because of those cases. Desantis has issued an Executive Order Banning Schools from instituting Mask Mandates but eight counties have defied the order as cases have grown. Remember, desantis is widely expected to throw his hat into the ring for a 2024 president ial bid. And how he handles the continuing Covid Crisis will likely have an effect on his chances.
