Hi everybody. I just returned last night from another trip. It was my third one in the past month.

I went to Savannah, Georgia to speak at a Republican Party event, and subsequent to which I went to Jackson, Mississippi to meet some people from

Ole Miss and many of the powerful politicians in Mississippi, all of whom were absolutely

wonderful.

And then went to Oxford, Mississippi to visit Ole Miss and

visit the Center. The Declaration of Independence Center met the director, the associate director,

and all the rest of people. I've never experienced so much love and support. So it's

a truly wonderful trip. But the point of today's episode is to talk about two things. Number one,

what took place between Zelensky and Trump and Vance this week, the interaction.

Admittedly, I did not watch the full clip, which, you know,

put things in context, and puts things in context,

but I certainly watched the snippets where there was heated exchanges.

When I weighed in on social media about those exchanges,

it in no way is a position on whether I support Putin or not. My position was absolutely

independent of anything about Putin and anything about who is the aggressor or

the victim or the aggressed in this dynamic.

But of course, I receive endless hate about, you know, I'm so disappointed in you.

I'm so sad for you.

I've lost respect for you. F off. How about that for my response?

My point was to talk about the importance of protocol. And believe me, it's not as though I'm someone who, you know, tempers their speech to be faux nice and so on.

But I do know how to act in various contexts according to the social demands and the norms

of that particular environment.
