Here's a letter that we won't oppose you opening up a marijuana business in our community and the government says career put those Up for sale. Those as you point out are the counts that that stood and i say those are the most damning counts because that is the one where it erodes the public trust. That is you know this is a white collar crime case. It's a public corruption case. That's the extortion accounts. Were the ones that were really the thrust of that all right.

There is now increasingly. Good research about the right way to message to a vaccine. Has its population it. It seems like it's decreasingly. Effective to talk about peer pressure or social forming and more effective to reiterate the safety of the vaccine And that that message is most effective when it comes from republican elected officials to Republican constituents that that people who are vaccine hesitant who are supporters of donald trump want to hear from republican elected officials that the vaccine is safe. That's what the evidence is saying. It'd be most effective messaging. And i'm not political about it. I just want people to get vaccines whatever works we should be doing. Which is why. I'm so incredibly frustrated with my colleagues in congress from the republican party who are unwilling to tell their constituents who would listen to them that this vaccine is safe and they need to get. That is a moral responsibility. Patriotic responsibility that these republicans have and they're abdicating any conversations in the back rooms trying to sway. Republican colleagues to to carry a different message is the prevalence of the delta verion starting to change people's minds after what we've seen over the last eighteen months of this virus after the willingness that we've seen from trump and his enablers politicize even the most basic science and public health.
