Sen. Ron Johnson Reacts to House Leadership and the Omnibus Bill
"Ron Johnson joins us right now. Senator, welcome back to the program. Hello, Charlie. Hope you're doing well. I am. Thank you. So senator, let me ask you about the $1.7 trillion omnibus bill. You did not vote for it, but it was very disappointed to see some of your colleagues rush this through. I'd love your reaction to that and also your reaction to the new House rules that will hopefully prevent another omnibus of this size and this kind of a monstrosity ever from passing again. So I obviously it was disappointed that we had so many Republican senators joined with Democrats. To pass a bill that nobody read, nobody knows what all is in it. They certainly understand some of the elements we as a conference as Republican Senate conference, we have a resolution against earmarks. And now there have been two peace legislation where we've signed up or some of us have up to the trough and accepted the earmarks and then gone back to our states and bragged about it. So it's pretty repulsive. There's certainly a group of us that fought pretty hard against it. We tried to raise public awareness of trying to tear our Republican colleagues from supporting it, but in the end they did. The day after my election, I wrote a piece that The Wall Street Journal ran this was hoping that we would have a majority in the Senate and just laid out this is how we ought to handle being the majority. You can apply the same thing to the house and I think what the house did in their leadership, the battle over the speakership, they pretty well embraced enough what I was talking about, passing a budget return function to the Congress. And you start doing that by passing a budget. So hopefully it is a very conservative budget, coming as close to balance as possible, which we're tantalizingly close.

House Will Go to Republicans, Senate Is Still Being Decided
"Never give up and never lose perspective. The president of the United States woke up today realizing he's not going to have a Democrat majority in the House. In fact, as we stand right now, there are still four states too close to call in the U.S. Senate. Four. I don't know what's going to happen. It's not a foregone conclusion that the Democrats take the Senate. They may, but it's pretty well guaranteed that we flipped the House of Representatives from blue to red from Democrat to Republican controlled.

Coming out of the 2020 election very similar to Georgia, Nevada and others, which are the in play states. Black masters came out of the primary. It's been an up and down roller coaster.

Jason Pye Shares His Take on the Warnock-Walker Race in Georgia
"Real quickly, your take on the walker Warnock libertarian, why do you say, I mean, Warnock, I mean, there's been a lot of arguments, but he can't get over 50. Walk right and get over 50. You know, you know, you can sort of say, well, walker's had these other issues, but Warnock's had some other issues, but walker, he's also spent a $100 million using income, but any ideas? Ultimately, on that race, I think if it's a runoff, if it goes to a runoff, which I don't know where I come down on it, it will or not. But if the consensus month behind the behind the closed door consensus is beginning more and more on the Republican little walker camp and the Warnock camp, I've had some contact sort of endometriosis about they are now setting aside substantial thought to a runoff. Interesting. If it goes to a runoff, you know, I'm going to give it to walker. I think he ultimately wins. But when someone like chase Oliver, chase, and this is part of being involved in a third party and having a third party background because I was back in 2000 6, I was 2005, 2006. I was state party chairman for the Libertarian Party in Georgia. At the age of 25 years old, I don't recommend that to anyone by the way. With Chase Oliver, he says things from a perspective that I agree with. On both markets and social issues because Chase is the first gay Republican Senate nominee in Georgia history. And he brings that interesting perspective, which made scare off a lot of conservatives. And I disagree, but I respect it. But with Warnock, I think the biggest problem he's facing is. I'm a George bulldogs fan. I don't have my Georgia bulldog. I'm not in my office, so I don't have much. All my stuff. I got my Kirby smart ball there. There we go. Yeah, I'm so jealous. So with walker, I respect him and I thought he was a great running back for UGA. I mean, prior to the last national to the championship, they just won. The last championship they won before that was the year I was born.

"Looks like now that they are beginning to be people who just look, say, look, this is going way too far. And now you've had Merrick Garland actually say, you know, everything has to go through ledge of flares, nobody can talk to Congress. I mean, it seems like they're holding it together with country time spitting Bailey wire. I mean, 'cause they went so far that even some who will be sympathetic quote company people are saying, wait, wait, wait, there's got to be some balance here. Yeah, Garland, I think, is just an avatar, old guy, old, bitter guy, luckily we were able to stop them from ever becoming appointed to the Supreme Court. Because the Democrats knew exactly what they had on this guy. They knew exactly what he was going to be. He was going to be swayed very, very easily. And that always makes me wonder as to what they have on some of these guys to where the Democrats knew exactly what to do. They put up this guy that was kind of a phony Republican and said, get them, let's get them approved. And luckily, we know he was stopped by the Republican Senate at the time. Now he's just a bitter old man who's not in charge. And I say that he's not in charge because it's clear just by this latest raid where he had stories that say, oh my God, he was in turmoil for two months, not knowing what to do. Well, that's weird because we were told it's nuclear secrets, classified information. Like, what? This is wild that he that he toiled over this for months.

Breaking news on WTO. Georgia Republican Senate nominee Herschel Walker continues to face questions about a report showing he paid for a girlfriend's abortion in 2009, even though he's running as an abortion rights opponent. Walker strongly denies that report, but tonight there is new reporting from The Daily Beast, which interviewed the woman a second time. She now says she is the mother of one of his children and his claim that he doesn't know who the woman is is highly doubtful. There's no comment from the walker campaign on this latest revelation. Walker has said he plans to sue The Daily Beast for its original article, which includes photos of a get well card walker is said to have signed, the bank statement of money he sent his girlfriend as well as the abortion clinic receipt. Walker's son Christian, who is a conservative social media influencer, has posted a video against his father's family values platform. Okay, I'm done. Done. Everything has been a lie. Don't lie on my mom. Don't worry on me. Don't lie on the lives. You've destroyed and act like you're some moral family man. Y'all should care about that. Conservatives. We talk about why Republicans are still supporting walker circling the wagons in this race with Washington Post live anchor, Leigh Anne Caldwell. Republicans are absolutely standing by Herschel Walker. They have come to his defense. The Republicans, senatorial campaign committee, the political action committee run by associates of Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell. The anti abortion groups have also stuck by Herschel Walker and they are saying that the denial is extremely important in most instances. They say he denies it. They are going to move on. They're going to continue to support him. The reality is that Georgia is a key seat for Republicans to win back control of the Senate. And there's no other options for Republicans in Georgia. And so they are going to stand by him regardless of family values regardless of controversy regardless of hypocrisy because they think he has a chance of beating the Democrat Raphael Warnock. In the meantime, we are seeing some poll numbers that are not good news for Democrats trying to win other Senate races. There's Wisconsin with Republican Ron Johnson pulling ahead of the Democrat Mandela Barnes. There's also Pennsylvania. You've got Democrat John fetterman. He had a double digit lead in August over Doctor Oz in Pennsylvania. That seems to have evaporated or gotten smaller. What do you think is going on? This is the time when voters tend to really start paying attention. The airwaves in all of these states are blanketed with advertisements. So the polls naturally tighten. It happens every election this close to an election. But the question is, is this a natural tightening or is this the voters moving back in the direction of the Republican candidates? Was something that's really something similar between especially the Pennsylvania race and the Wisconsin race is the focus on the Republican candidates on the issue of crime. Republicans have really dug into this issue and it could very well be sticking. There's four and a half weeks left. Anything can happen, but right now the momentum is definitely on the Republican side. And that's not just from the polls. That's what my sources are also seeing and hearing on the ground too.

The Left's Latest Hit on Herschel Walker
"I want to talk today at some length about the left's hit on Herschel Walker. Herschel Walker, the Republican Senate candidate in Georgia, a black man, a famous athlete. Someone that the left has been gunning for. And they want to secure Georgia for the left, and they want their own candidate, Raphael Warnock. By the way, far left, the sky could almost be described as a communist. And he by a weird turn of events got elected in the runoffs in Georgia in early 2021. And many Republicans were like, well, it's only going to be two years. We'll knock him out for sure. This is a red state. But here we have this bitterly fought race between Herschel Walker and Warnock. And so a big article coming out from the left. This was I believe in The Daily Beast. I have the article here. Essentially arguing that Herschel not arguing, attempting to document Herschel Walker paid for a girlfriend's abortion. This occurred evidently 2009, so 13 years ago. But nevertheless, they claim to we have receipts, we have documents. We even have a get well card sent by Herschel Walker that is has his kind of trademark signature with a kind of distinctive H now the woman, the article confesses is a Democrat. She's a leftist. She doesn't like Herschel Walker, nor does she like what he stands for. She's angry that he's anti abortion and she wants to see him defeated. So this is a think of it. This is echoes of Anita hill making a hit on clarence Thomas for somewhat under somewhat similar circumstances, making allegations supposedly producing evidence, although the evidence itself is only as good as what you're willing to believe because this kind of evidence is extremely easy to cook up.

It is a pattern of events that leads to a culminating or a culmination, a culminating event in early November. Right now there is a trendline that is very disturbing for the Democrat party. It seemed they got very, very hot over the summer and now the new polls that are coming out, which I know a lot of people say Charlie, I don't trust the polls. Well, these are polling. This is polling from liberal firms that are showing some Republicans starting to get separation speed. And we're seeing it on the ground in real time.

Now, we are seeing this and we should celebrate this in the moment, but wait a second. This is not the election. This is not the entire ball game. The question is, with the trend improving with the gap tightening, Democrats are now going to become very, very desperate. If, for example, it is true that Herschel Walker wins in Georgia. If it is true, that Ron Johnson will win in Wisconsin. If it is true, that Adam laxalt wins in Nevada.

"Time to get to another place to have surgery. My first miscarriage was on Mother's Day. I was in Oklahoma. I had gone to Oklahoma to tell my family I was pregnant and Alex was working. And I actually spent the night in a hospital because I thought I was having a separate pregnancy. I don't think I was, or if I wasn't resolved itself naturally, but I was in the middle of the state, a four hour drive, really, to any place where I could have gotten help. And I think about that. I mean, I can't not think about that and other people in that situation. I was just on vacation. And I mean, okay, no one does to Oklahoma vacation. But I was just there visiting people. And yeah, it's okay. They know. And it was, you know, like when I explained it like that, he's like, oh, okay, and this has been going on all week, and he had not thought about it. And we have so many people that are not thinking about these things. And what the second and third order effects and a lot of it is because they've never had to think about these issues before. It's never been an issue for them, and now it's the little thing step by step, and it is our responsibility 100% that we keep talking about this. And we keep saying, oh, great. Arizona, when you have another person that is the leading candidate for the Republican Senate primary race who was also supported by guess who, Peter Thiel, who came out this week and said he wants birth control to be regulated by the state and he wants it to be illegal in Arizona. But the other thing that's interesting you said is you said it resolved itself, right? That could now be an issue for a lot of women and, oh, was an issue for a woman in Texas. Yes. If you're pregnancy, if you have that issue, yes, that resolves itself. How do we know it resolved itself or how do we know you didn't take something? Exactly. Guess we're going to have to find out in the courts. And guess who we're probably not going to believe? Probably not going to believe the woman. Exactly. Exactly. I can not tell you how many times I've thought about this. What if I was turned in because I've had multiple miscarriages. I've had multiple ectopic pregnancies. What if someone turned me in and I was investigated for somehow doing this to myself, especially when there's a financial incentive? Yes, thank you. Yeah, right. There's a financial incentive to catch somebody like, oh, I can get $10,000 if this person that I know is pregnant yesterday because they told me, and now they're like, oh, I'm not pregnant anymore. And what if they were like, I'm sure. And then someone was like, oh my gosh, did they have a miscarriage? Or did they make themselves? I mean, you guys, I was just I'm reading a book right now that's a little bit of an older book. It's called outlaw these outlaw oceans, but it's kind of like a series of different things of things that happen in the ocean. One of them is a ship that's an abortion clinic. And they travel around. And so places and so there are like an international water. That's legit. I think they used to do that off the coast of Ireland. Yes, yes, did they have the same ship? It travels around the world.

That doesn't benefit anybody and distract everybody. Can we go back in time? And give Josh hawley enough attention or less attention when he was younger. Like, is there some way to go back and retroactively calibrate how much love and approval he should have received and correct that so that he doesn't grow into the person that he has become. It's true because, you know, the interesting thing about all of those people is that they're all trying to keep up with each other, right? It's like Josh, it's like Ted Cruz is so crazy. So Josh has to be crazy, and they all want to be crazy enough to get what Donald Trump's endorsement, but he's running for president. So what are they all doing this for? They all want to get on TV. They all want to get on TV. And like, but they've got their own platform and Fox News. It's like they can go on whenever they want.

We talked a little bit about opportunity costs and it's like, you know, people have a finite amount of time. It's possible to care about multiple things at once. Obviously. But there is a finite amount of time and attention that people have.

"3300 Americans have been evacuated from Afghanistan at least as of Saturday about 3300. That's about 10% of all of those evacuated from Afghan Understand. Faces. Chris Wallace talked to Ben Stassen, her business from Nebraska about this specifically about the developing split on the right over the issue of Afghan refugees. This has got 25. I want to drill down on this question of Afghan refugees because there's quite a split inside your party about bringing our Afghan allies the people who stood up for us for the last 20 years, bringing them into this country. GOP Congressman Tom Tiffany says the Biden administration's plan to bring planeloads into the U. S now and ask questions later is reckless and irresponsible. Ohio Republican Senate candidate J. D. Vance, author of Hillbilly Elegy. Says he'd like to hear zero about Afghan refugees until we get every single American out first Senator There's a real difference of opinion inside your party. First of all, a great nation is a nation that keeps its word. The American people need to understand who we're talking about. Here. We're talking about men and women who risked their lives to protect Americans. They fought hand in hand with our troops, and we made promises to them. There are 32 million Afghans. We're talking about 60 to 80,000 people. So the first thing to say is the American people need to understand who we're talking about. We're talking about heroes who fought with us to take the fight to allocate and the Taliban number two. The administration has been way too slow to get people out of harm's way They can get them to Kuwait. They can get him to Qatar. They can get them to Bahrain. They can get him to Ramstein in Germany and sort through the larger processing and bureaucratic issues there. But number three when you fought on behalf of Americans to protect our people, you're welcome in my neighborhood. All right now I have to say, I think you know, business kind of danced around a couple of these issues here, particularly when we're talking about the vetting of Afghan refugees. I mean the point of having the special immigrant visa. Was supposedly that these individuals would have been vetted already. Okay, right. But the problem is that my administration has been dragging its feet. Uh, with the s I V process. And so we've got a lot of folks who Are not vetted, but the other issue is, you know. So what do you do right now? I understand. I believe that we should Our biggest priority right now should be getting Americans out of Afghanistan. But if we can't even get Americans to the airport And yet you've got thousands of Afghans who are there. What do you do? Do you keep the planes on the tarmac while you wait for Americans to arrive, or do you say all right, We're going to get these Afghan refugees out. And you know, while we work to get Americans to the airport, I think a lot of this is a problem of the bite administration's own devising, But at the same time, I don't think you can let those S I V visa holders just sit there. While while Americans are unable to get to the airport, I think that would be an even bigger disaster. Well, I think you're right Cam. So I tend to err on the side of maybe on Ben's fastest side where I do think that we have a responsibility to help those who helped us. Now. Does that mean that that comes that they come before American citizens? Absolutely not. You know, I think the Biden administration needs to figure out how do you get to your American citizens? How do you find them? And then get them safely to the airport. But it absolutely doesn't make sense to have planes that are three quarters empty. Um, you know, taking off when you could potentially be saving the lives of people who Who frankly helped us during during this war. You know, I I do Don't I don't like this kind of dichotomy between J. D. Vance and Ben Sasse as though that the right is split in half on immigration. You know, I do think everyone wants to make sure that anybody coming here is not going to be a terrorist, and that's something that we need to to ensure that that happens. It's not being nationalists. It's not being Um, uh, some sort of supremacist or whatever the case is, that's being smart. And just as we expect that at the Southern border, there's nothing wrong in expecting that at our airports, including here in Dallas. No, You're absolutely right. And I got to say to you know, it's not like the Afghans are having a particularly easy time of it, either. Jim Garrity right. In a national review, he said, you heard from a longtime reader. He spent years in Afghanistan working for a defense contractor, he said. We directly employed thousands of Afghans. Their lives are in danger retaliation by the Taliban because they help the American military and recognizing this on August, the second The U. S government created another classification of asylum visa processing called Priority to, um These are basically Afghans and their immediate family members who are at risk due to US affiliations, but they're not eligible, very special immigrant visa. Uh, So this guy, this reader of natural view has been busy says all week, submitting referrals to the State Department on behalf of Afghans and their families. He says the submission is through email to a dedicated inbox at the State Department. And he said, we began receiving messages that the inbox is full. And this has been going on for half a day. Now he shared with Jim Garrity. An automatic reply. Email is stated quote the recipients of our boxes full and can't accept messages now, So this guy says, Look, lives are in danger. Evacuations are in chaos and Department of State can't manage a damn email inbox, he says. I've never been so disappointed and angry and my government Then, today says this is madness. I would hope that maybe one of the White House reporters reads that to Jen Psaki, who seems to think, Oh American citizens. Anybody can simply just email us or tweet at us, and we'll get help to them. You know, this is this is disgusting. In the short term, these are potential lives that are that are being put on the line here. But in the long term, what is it sent to put two feature people in other countries that we wanted to help use their help? It's going to send a signal. No Americans will abandon you when times get tough. Unfortunately, I think you're absolutely right. All right. It is 7 44 here on W m A l.

"On the show. It's gonna be with you. Thank you also is so he'll comport national political reporter for NBC News cycle Welcome. Great to be back, Doug. I'm having whiplash listening to those. Ah, statements from top GOP officials here. What I mean, Why is accountability for what happened at the Capitol? Considered something that's tearing the country apart right now, How did we go from wanting to hold the president accountable to this? Well, I think it comes down to a word called politics And you know when you talk about accountability One thing that House Republicans Senate Republicans to have been very mindful of over the past four years is that they face an accountability from their voters and their voters are overwhelmingly supportive of Donald Trump again. That's especially morte True. In the house than in the Senate, where you have, you know, congressional lines are drawn in a more partisan way, and that's what they're reacting to, because that's who they're hearing from most vocally, I can tell you my conversations with members of Congress on the feedback. They get from their voters is overwhelmingly pro trump. And you know one thing that we know about Trump supporters. They're not quiet. It's not a silent majority or silent minority, for that matter. They're loud and vocal. That's what they're hearing from, and that's what they're reacting to. So don't really I mean these voters or support Trump supporters air sort of intimidating their representatives into Into what? Into believing that this didn't happen into believing that the president has no the former president. I should say has no accountability for this. Well, they're they're pushing them to not convict him or not. Impeachment. It's the votes in the house. And that again is is what they're reacting to. Um, and part of this is you mentioned in the set up for the 2022 elections. I can tell you A big part of why House leadership did not vote to impeach the President House Republican leadership despite the words of Kevin McCarthy, despite the private misgivings of I'm Steve Squeeze is because they want Donald Trump support in 2022 taking back the house is their biggest priority. And if Donald Trump is not on board, they see him as a real impediment to that, because he would potentially Go in and cause trouble in House Republican primaries and then even in general elections, where he wouldn't be supportive. That's a big concern for them. The hell I want to bring you in here because I'm wondering. We heard different clips from from GOP leadership immediately following the capital insurrection. We heard from McCarthy, Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham. And were they just shell shocked by what had just happened and hadn't had a chance to process the political the political calculations that they were going to have to make. I mean, trying to explain this sort of shift here. I think many Republicans, including party leaders were legitimately rattled by what happened on January 6. There was extremely extremely unusual for them to be in a situation where in the building they work in the United States Capitol, their safety and their lives were put at risk. So this was an extraordinary event. I think that did play into some of the early Republican reactions. Critics criticizing President Trump Israel As a result of this, it certainly played into the fact that 10 House Republicans voted to impeach Former president Trump, making him the making about the most bipartisan impeachment in history. But over time politics has a way of progressing to the mean and the sentiment as Douglas, pointing out that these lawmakers heard from their Republican voters was overwhelmingly pro Trump. And that's why you saw a little bit of Vasa waiting early on from the orbit of Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, who was reportedly pleased to see impeachment go forward. He seems to have walked a lot of that back, and now he is Signaling along with 90% of Senate Republicans that they intend a intend to oppose the impeachment trial on a procedural, a technical ground. And by all indications appear likely to acquit the president. So sorry Hill. If there is no, I guess we should. We shouldn't get ahead of ourselves here. But if if the chances of trump being convicted here are very low Why are Democrats moving forward with the trial? Well, they have to have the trial. Now. It's a little too late not to. Given that the House has impeach the president and the House managers have walked the papers over to the Senate. There's not much else that can happen except a Senate trial. The reason Democrats did. This was not necessarily out of politics. I think politics had little to do with this. I think this is out of conviction. There were Democratic members who who believe that doing impeachment at this time would distract and detract on the Senate floor from President Biden's agenda from his Cabinet nominees from getting his legislative Proposals off the ground, and that was legitimate concern. But that argument lost out to the overwhelming sentiment of House Democrats that if the House won't impeach the president for this For inciting an insurrection on the U. S. Capitol, putting the safety and lives of lawmakers and every one of the building at risk. Then what is the point of impeachment was the point of having a constitution of a president can came. Dagger at the heart of a legitimate self government and a legitimate election, and Congress does nothing about it. So this was more about conviction than politics? I think we definitely need to ask that question, Doug. I mean, if the Republican Party Want to get into some of the folks who voted for impeaching the former president in just a minute. But if the party is as Sahil is pointing out, doesn't you know? Hold Donald Trump accountable or any of GOP accountable for this. What does that mean? Well, if it means again that this is this policy, this is a process. It's about politics, and your Republicans are very mindful again of what they're hearing from their constituents are also mindful of what they're human from from their other members. And so if you look at Theme. The backlash that a list Cheney has gotten for sticking her neck out and doing what she felt was the right thing doing so as a member of House leadership, the only member of house leadership to to support impeachment, You know, she's being campaigned against already. In her in her district in Wyoming. I can tell you I had a Wyoming politician called me saying, I'm being recruited to run, and this was two days after the vote That wouldn't have happened if Liz Cheney voted the other way. Members are very buying full of the politics of this, you know, I would equate them sometimes, too. You know, animals that start to scurry before anybody else sees the earthquake coming, But that's the reality of where they are right now. Dug. 10 House Republicans did vote to impeach former President Donald Trump. What's their calculus there? You know, it's it's hard to say, you know politically, I think they know that that it's not a popular move way. Just talked about Liz Cheney, Tom Rice and South Carolina has been censured by his own state party. On bear. Seeing other State Party's central Republicans who who voted to impeach is well not that every member of Congress is necessarily worried about what the Oregon Republican Party is doing. But it demonstrates the sense of what is out there in the party right now, and that the politics of this are especially treacherous for those Republicans. I would say there's a flip side to that politically as well. I'm looking at my home state of North Carolina. We're 5800 Republicans in this in this month of January. Since January, 6th have changed their registration from Republican toe unaffiliated, so the State party's losing voters and if you're motivated To leave your state party to do something political in January. Of an off year. That means you're really motivated and you're really angry..

I have a feeling It's just flip to the bird. It's like, Yeah, Go ahead. I'm not doing that. Take your broom and get out of here. Um, but CNN says that the Democrats in the house, they're eyeing impeachment as soon as mid week and now some members of the Republican Senate Not enough to change anything or jumping ship as well. Ben Sasse says that he would probably play ball then, of course, you go to like Collins and Markovsky, but Borkowski was called for his reservation for sure. Lindsey Graham Graham nasty who took to the Senate floor once they reconvened the other day and basically said, I've tried to be a good supporter, but I'm out. He put out a tweet quote any attempt to impeach President Trump? Would not only be unsuccessful in the Senate, but would be a dangerous precedent for future of the presidency of the United States..

We got these Do Senate seats because running up position when you still have some pieces on the chess board is one thing running opposition when you're just down to a couple of ponds.

He'll be joining us to give his thoughts on all this around 705, as well as the general state of play for Trump the GOP these election challenges John's ex NYPD guy You've heard him on the show many times. He definitely worth sticking around it here what John's got in store for us and like I said, there's also this breaking news about the about the shooting that well, there will be no charges over the police involved shooting of Jacob Blake. There could be riots now because of this, and I think it's important to get the true story out before that happens, because you know the media is going to just try to change and alter faxes quickly. As they can. That's just their nature. They think it's they think Lying is a part of the job now as long as the rind lying for the right reasons. If you consume over 10 servings of fruits and vegetables every day, you'll give your body the nutrients it needs to help fight off viruses and boost your immune system tremendously. But how, though who can eat 10 servings of fruits and vegetables every single day. That's where balance of majors, fruits and veggies in a capsule comes in. You know Dr Howard at the beginning of 2020, and he told me about real fruits and veggies what they could do for immune system and that's the basis for balance in nature. And I've been taking them ever since..
