S Capitol. And it just It's right there before you and you fly and you see it and it is majestic and to have made that flight net landing hundreds of times just to walk down Pennsylvania Avenue East. Toward the United States Capitol and to think of it being breached to see the pictures of it being preachy. These are acts of domestic terrorism. And so we're seeing something today that I never imagined. I mean, it looks like some ridiculous, apocalyptic movie that there seems to be one of every week and you know that it's a ridiculous apocalypse movie and you just miss it.
