And I mean, we led the 5 o’clock with its satire of Donald Trump and its physical depictions of the things he’s made clear or the things he’s most insecure about.

And whether or not Trump and, you know, Carr, who’s the FCC Chairman and the rest of Project 2025 acolytes will be able to execute and fully implement that change is up to all of us, but we are at the beginning of that. And there are plenty of examples, one after the other of, as Commissioner Gomez described it, cowardly capitulation. And, you know, I mean, that trend isn’t going away. It’s only increasing.
