And out and about, thank you for matching up. I also want to thank the folks that are tuning in from around the state today. I am joined today by a couple of outstanding leaders, the National Guard. A member of the joint chiefs of staff and he works out of washington, d. C. He was here about 40 years ago as i recall for the Natural Disaster but it certainly is a joy to welcome him back here. If there is one consistent theme every time the governor is on the phone, there it is with the president and Vice President or whether it i is to go Governors Association telephone conferen conference, the one thing every governor has in common is how excellent the National Guard performed and that has a lot to do with the generals leadership as well as just the quality of the guardsmen and the airmen around the country. To see the interNational Guard perform this Tremendous Service in difficult circumstances, but this is very different than what we have seen before. We have had more than our fair

From the Nations Capital to wherever you are. The opinion that matters the most is your own. This is what democracy looks like. Cspan, powered by cable. U. S. Ambassador to belize Michelle Kwan joined u. S. Ambassadors to costa rica, el salvador, honduras, and guatemala for a discussion about u. S. Central American relations. The diplomats were asked about regional migration, economic challenges and threats from cartels and crime syndicates. The interamerican dialogue in washington, d. C. Hosted this event. It is one hour 20 minutes. I want to say that upfront. I think everyone here knows that the u. S. Is in the process of building the state department after four years of attack under the trump administration. The department lost 60 of its career ambassadors. Providing the tools and resources they need. Excuse me. So more targeted and pushed out. Others resigned in protest. I think i just saw john seeley that actually served in panama.

So for now even though it looks like just knocking on our fronts door here in philly its still a little time before it actually starts to the snow here locally. In the meantime as we look at temperatures yeah its cold enough to support that snowfall. Dont expect much more than a handful of inches well get to
