ESPN's Stephen A. Smith: Embarrassing Geriatric Biden Is The Best The DNC Can Offer America
Blue Horseshoe replied to Blue Horseshoe's topic in The Geek Club
NBC Poll Spells Doom for Joe Biden - One Major Roadblock Is Standing in His Way ....A new poll found that Americans are struggling to describe President Joe Biden as either cognizant or functional.....The fact that this poll was conducted by NBC, a generally more left-leaning network compared to Fox News, should provide extra consternation for Biden and his team — especially in the midst of a polarizing re-election bid. On Sunday’s episode of NBC’s “Meet the Press” — hosted by Chuck Todd — Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar was a guest and there to discuss a litany of topics. “We have a new poll out and we asked various questions having to do with President Biden and his ability to do the job [of president],” Todd told Klobuchar on Sunday. “Uh, does [Biden] have the mental and physical health to serve?” Todd asked.... “The concern among Democrats has doubled since October 2020,” Todd flatly said. “It was only one-in-five Democrats who had that concern before Election Day 2020....It’s now over 40 percent. It’s at 43 percent. You were just with the president at the state dinner. Do you have concerns?” “No, I don’t,” Klobuchar said. “We all saw his power at the State of the Union. Our party is united behind him. Why? Because we work in a results-oriented business, Chuck. And he has gotten results.” .....But should he be a two-term president, the numbers speak for themselves. The incumbent president is already 80, meaning that by the time the 2024 general election rolls around, he will be 82. If he were to finish his second term, he would be leaving the White House as an 86-year-old.... https://www.westernjournal.com/nbc-poll-spells-doom-joe-biden-one-major-roadblock-standing-way/ -

"Operation Underground Railroad" Fights Child Sex Trafficking: Controversial "Sound Of Freedom" Film Released
Blue Horseshoe posted a topic in The Geek Club
Called by God .....In 2014, I went on a vigilante raid to “save” kids sold for sex. What we did haunts me now.....I’d never heard of Operation Underground Railroad when its founder, Tim Ballard, called me suddenly in the summer of 2014. A former Department of Homeland Security special agent, Ballard said OUR had a child-trafficking sting planned for the Dominican Republic—and he wanted me to come along to document it......Ballard explained the mission of the organization to me like this: Children in other countries were being trafficked. Local governments were overwhelmed or complicit. And the U.S. government was unwilling to jeopardize diplomatic relationships to rescue local underage victims. Ballard said he knew how to rescue these kids. He told me he’d been called to this work by God.....(A representative for Operation Underground Railroad replied to detailed questions for this article: “Slate is rehashing old claims from nearly seven years ago during Operation Underground Railroad’s first year in operation. As any other successful organization does, we have evolved and are continuously working to professionally improve our standard operating methods and practices.”) .....The traffickers thought we were Americans looking to have a sex party with underage girls.....I was the youngest person, and the only woman, on the “jump,” as they called it. A camera crew filmed everything, because Ballard seemed to intend to pitch a TV series about his anti-trafficking efforts, and they needed footage. The production company was based in Utah but reportedly had Hollywood royalty interested: Gerald Molen, the Oscar-winning producer of films like Jurassic Park and Schindler’s List. This was a rescue mission, but it was also reality TV.....Members of the OUR jump team found people willing to traffic kids and set up a date to “party” with however many kids they could provide, the more the better. The authorities were told where and when the party was happening. When they arrived, the girls would be sent outside, where I would be with them, while Ballard and the traffickers would stay inside. The police planned to wait outside until the OUR team had undercover footage of a trafficker accepting upfront cash for sex with the kids. After the cash changed hands, Ballard would give a signal, and the authorities would rush the house to make arrests. They would be armed..... ......The kids arrived in a bus with their traffickers the next day. There were 26 of them. They were young, middle school–to–high school age. I’d been asked to blow up balloons so the house had a party atmosphere. Many of the kids looked like they’d gotten ready for a middle school dance. I met them outside by the pool and handed out sodas. Some kids started singing; others started swimming.....Ballard sat inside with the traffickers, supposedly negotiating the price for the services each girl would provide. An operative opened the back door and called to me: “Meg, Tim wants you inside.”....Then he gave the signal. The raid started. I ran to the back door, where I was confronted by a local police officer brandishing a gun. I was told to get on the floor. The cameras were rolling for the hoped-for TV show...... I wrote an article for Huffington Post about Ballard’s heroics and the children’s new hope. When OUR released its first documentary, I attended the premiere. Before the movie started, everyone in the audience who’d participated in a “jump” was asked to stand up. I stood up. The crowd applauded..... That drama, and a real desire to save children, moves a lot of donors, whether or not it’s accurate. .... Operation Underground Railroad made a video of the raid I went on and posted it to its YouTube channel. It’s still there. You can see the terrified housekeeper when she opens the door to a man with a gun, me lying on the floor while police pace around me, and Ballard winking at the camera. The video ends with the line, “26 victims liberated, 8 traffickers arrested....” https://slate.com/human-interest/2021/05/sex-trafficking-raid-operation-underground-railroad.html -

Lionsgate Studio Is Releasing Another Faith-Based Film - Is This the Next 'Jesus Revolution'? .....Faith-based films are making a comeback, and now another one is in the works, with the potential to be another big hit. On Tuesday, Deadline reported that the studio Lionsgate had announced an April 2024 release date for its upcoming film “Unsung Hero.” “Unsung Hero” tells the true story of David Smallbone, who moves to the U.S. from Australia with his wife, Helen, and their seven children after the collapse of his music company. As the family works to rebuild their lives, Helen relies on her Christian faith to get through the tough time and inspires her husband and children to do the same. Three of David and Helen’s children would go on to become successful Christian artists, with sons Joel and Luke forming the group For King & Country and one of their daughters performing as Rebecca St. James..... ....“Unsung Hero” comes on the heels of another faith-based movie produced by Lionsgate’s Kingdom Story Company — “Jesus Revolution,” about a revivalist ministry in the 1970s. The film smashed expectations at the box office, bringing in over $50 million during its five weeks in theaters.....Considering it had a budget of just $15 million, “Jesus Revolution” was a definite hit for Lionsgate, so it’s no surprise the studio is returning to that well.....Lionsgate was not the only studio to see massive success with a Christian film this year. “Jesus Revolution” no doubt set the stage for “Sound of Freedom,” which tells the true story of one man’s mission to save children from sex trafficking. Despite being another low-budget production, “Sound of Freedom” topped many big films at the box office to become the No. 1 movie in America..... https://www.westernjournal.com/lionsgate-studio-releasing-another-faith-based-film-next-jesus-revolution/ -

Surprising Demographic Is Rejecting Leftist Ideology, Twice as Likely to Be Conservative ....High school-aged young men are more likely to describe themselves as conservative than liberal by a ratio of almost two-to-one, a new report claimed. While this is all anecdotal, this information led me to recall an old adage: Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times.... ....Kids today have been raised in hard times and with a lot of weak men as their examples..... the University of Michigan has dropped the annual Monitoring the Future survey. It gauges where the minds of America’s young people are and has done so since the 1970s.....The survey found that high school seniors over the last three years are largely apolitical, but when they were asked to choose a side of the aisle, a plurality of the boys said they sit on the right...Girls were more likely to pick a side, and 30 percent of them identified as liberal compared to only 12 percent who said they were conservative.... https://www.westernjournal.com/surprising-demographic-rejecting-leftist-ideology-twice-likely-conservative/ -
Any community will benefit from a "unifying vision" In previous times, with a lot of resource scarcity and a lack of practical health care and medicine, that was basic survival. Communities rallied together because if they didn't, they would perish. War is another very tragic unifying factor. Look at the United States domestically during WW2. Kids would pick up pieces of string and scraps of metal on the ground and turn them in to support the war effort. Women, who had not typically worked before in masses, would work assembly lines to make weapons and equipment for the fighting men overseas. And, of course, organized religion. Churches were often the only social "pillar" in any community. A place where charity and goodwill were accepted, without the brutality of the rest of the outside world to take hold. I've observed it all my life. Children who go to Sunday School on a regular basis, many of them, not all but more than the average, have a far better ethics base than those without. What is sad is that many people cross over organized religion dogmatically with God, and it's not the same thing. Many churches and many religious organizations are corrupt. And if there is a Satan, then that is likely part of his larger plan, to wipe out "community" by stacking on the narrative of mistrust in religion. But a relationship with God, while supported by community in a church setting, does not require a church setting. There needs to be something unifying to hold people together. Without it, many people are lost and many will go out of control. This is the part of the Bible that talks about the "false prophets" and how they will emerge. They will seem to have all the answers to the daily ills and ugliness of the world around us. This is how tyrants are born, in these kind of environments. If the "wages of sin" is death, then it's coming wholesale very soon. Most people in America have never seen the truly ugly parts of the rest of the world. The non Western world. They don't understand how cheap life is and how expendable they are in the grand scheme of things. Natural selection will always find a way to win. Eventually those who violate civil society will find out a surrogate system always emerges. I grieve for the many honest small business owners being massacred out there. Their livelihoods destroyed for nothing. We are talking every day people, regular people, just trying to get by and feed their children. It is the inherent pathology of "sin", the utter ungratefulness of it all. So many people in the world and so many in recorded history would give anything to have the freedoms and opportunity that the every day American has in this country and likely takes for granted. I despise ungrateful people. They are the true parasites of any community. These street thugs have openly asked for confrontation. And soon it appears the "civil society" around them will finally lose all restraint and give it to them.

Gavin Newsom vs Little Ronald DeSantis
Blue Horseshoe replied to thegeneral's topic in The Geek Club
****** Do you see the problem here? Newsom had to do what Pelosi wanted him to do. That's how it works and it's how it's always worked. He does what "Aunt" Pelosi says, the woman who nurtured and gave him a political career in the first place. Who has known him and his family since he was born. In exchange, she gives him massive political cover from her power base. Locked down schools. Vaccine mandates for kids. Mask mandates. But his own kids kept going to in person learning in expensive private schools. Also the expensive private schools of his big donors, cronies and other "elites" also got waivers too. If and when Newsom declares for POTUS 2024, this will ALL enter the national daily media cycle. All of it. Again, how will this play out to the critical suburban women voter base across the nation? That's Newsom's supposed bread and butter zone for the general electorate. Many of those SWV's are mothers. Who had their kids locked out schools. But Newsom's kids got to go and were exempt from lockdowns. Also Newsom's kids get security coverage, paid for with tax dollars as well. So his kids and the children of his biggest donors and cronies get "waivers" and are safer, but not the every day working class person? Plus, again, he cheated on both of his wives. His first wife is now linked to Donald Trump Jr. She also used to work for Fox News. Do you think that's going to end up well for Newsom during an election run? His second wife is linked negatively to Harvey Weinstein and providing "bagman" coverage against Rose McGowan. How's that going to play to the masses? If you don't have a policy record to hold you up ( The guy was recalled and it's not like he was long established as CA Governor when it happened) , then you need to sell "character" How do you do that as Newsom? You'll notice none of the activist radical leftists in this thread can substantively address ANY of the practical future general election issues that I'm raising here. Not a single one of them. -

But I qualify for all those things as we just filed our taxes, are registered with the District of Columbia and have our address in DC.

‘Full-on riot’ breaks out during Kai Cenat’s PS5 giveaway in NYC’s Union Square, Twitch influencer to be charged .....A Twitch influencer’s giveaway in Manhattan quickly morphed into mayhem Friday as thousands of his young fans mobbed Union Square Park — assaulting cops, smashing cars and screaming “F—k the PD” in a wild, nearly three-hour scene. Gamer Kai Cenat, who has over 20 million Twitch followers, planned to give away PlayStation 5s, computers, microphones and other gaming accessories at the real-life meet-up scheduled for 3:30 p.m. The location of the mass gathering wasn’t announced until just before Cenat arrived at the park and a permit was never obtained, officials said.

Gavin Newsom vs Little Ronald DeSantis
Blue Horseshoe replied to thegeneral's topic in The Geek Club
******* As soon as Newsom announces a POTUS run, his 2nd wife is dragged into the public sphere over Harvey Weinstein. This implicates Jeff Bezos by accusation. Then it dovetails into Jeffrey Epstein. This drags this scandal all the way across New York too. Involving the film industry there. Which connects the nursing home death camps scandal via COVID19 through California, New York and Michigan. That naturally drags down Gretchen Whitmer, Governor of Michigan and current Vice Chair of the DNC. Whitmer is informally a major political liaison to Big Pharma and their big corporate money. The more you punish her in public, the more those donors are apt to flee. She was also on Biden's short list for VPOTUS in 2020. Do you know why the GOP holds the HOR right now? Because seats flipped in New York. Lee Zeldin did not win Governor against Kathy Hochul, but his impact was devastating for Team Blue overall. New York losses are the reason why the House GOP, including a pure ruthless political operative like Elise Stefanik is being let loose right now towards a Biden impeachment. This links Newsom's stances on gun restrictions with Hochul's in New York. NY is already embattled by Tish James, the legacy of Andrew Cuomo, the failure of Eric Adams and the big fat target on Alvin Bragg's back. Just by declaring his candidacy for POTUS, Newsom drags in all kinds of chaos and scandal immediately. - COVID19 response, including the nursing homes scandal. Including lockdowns of schools. Including questions on where all that money went from "stimulus", including fraud. This links Newsom to the PG&E fire and his own PlumpJack brand which got multiple "waivers" from lockdowns. - Sexual scandal linked to his wife, which goes back to Epstein, which is totally lethal to the DNC. They want none of that Epstein stink on them whatsoever. Because it threatens the Hollywood cash machine to Democrats through Jeffrey Katzenberg. - Gun control and gun laws. Firearms are selling at a record pace the last FOUR YEARS STRAIGHT. Each new gun owner is a new advocate for Pro 2A. Lots of women, single mothers, minorities, even LGBT. This is what happens when you Defund The Police. Now let's see how Newsom loses in Middle America over guns. Then loses down the ticket for the rest of the Party apparatus in purple zones over guns. You literally bring nothing to the table at all. But it's your free speech. If someone deleted 100 percent of your posts here at the GC, nothing would be lost whatsoever. You're a lazy low value poster. But again it's still your free speech. -

Ron DeSantis decries public defecation, crack smoking during San Francisco stroll .....Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis painted a bleak picture of the City by the Bay in a campaign spot released Tuesday night, asserting that “leftist policies” have brought it to its knees. The Republican presidential contender toured the California town Monday amid a deepening rift with Gov. Gavin Newsom, San Francisco’s former mayor. “We’re here in the once-great city of San Francisco,” DeSantis says while standing in front of a graffiti-covered wall on an undisclosed street. “We came in here and saw people defecating on the street. We saw people using heroin. We saw people smoking crack cocaine.....” .....DeSantis, 44, has routinely lashed Democrat-controlled cities as blighted dystopias while elevating the Sunshine State as a thriving counterpoint. While dodging dung and al fresco drug use, DeSantis said, he observed rows of boarded-up businesses and “so much riffraff running around.”.....“You look around and the city is not vibrant anymore....It’s really collapsed because of leftist policies. And these policies have caused people to flee this area....No wonder why we’ve had so many people move from San Francisco to Florida over the last few years. We got to stop this madness. We need to restore sanity to this country.....” https://nypost.com/2023/06/21/ron-desantis-decries-public-crack-smoking-in-san-francisco/ -

Gavin Newsom’s in-laws moved to Florida during pandemic, new report claims ....Not even Gavin Newsom’s in-laws are listening to his Florida fear-mongering. The California governor’s relatives bolted the Golden State for the Sunshine State as Newsom ordered schools, businesses and churches shuttered at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a new report. Longtime California residents Kenneth Siebel Jr. and Judith Siebel purchased a $3.3 million home in Naples, Fla., in March 2020, according to Fox News. The Siebels, whose daughter Jennifer has been married to Newsom for 14 years, then registered to vote in Florida in June 2020, according to the report.... ....Around the time of the home purchase, Newsom implemented a statewide shelter-in-place order that would not be lifted until January 2021. Business capacity limits and other restrictions would remain in place until June 2021. During that period, more than 40,000 California small businesses shut down forever, more than in any other state....Newsom’s restrictive lockdown measures stood in stark contrast to what the Siebels would have experienced in Florida, where Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis lifted all COVID-19 lockdown measures and business restrictions by September 2020. ...The Fox News report notes that Kenneth Siebel is a registered Republican and that the Siebel family’s trust made a $5,000 contribution to DeSantis’ Friends of Ron DeSantis political action committee in 2022. Federal Election Commission records indicate that Kenneth Siebel has donated a total of $2,000 each to GOP Sens. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Tom Cotton of Arkansas.... ....This is not the first time Newsom’s in-laws have created controversy for the governor. In July, the governor took his family on vacation to a Montana ranch the Siebels own, despite Montana being one of 20 states to which California bars official, state-funded travel over laws deemed discriminatory against LGBTQ+ people..... https://nypost.com/2022/09/02/gavin-newsoms-in-laws-moved-to-florida-during-pandemic-report/ -

Casey DeSantis battled cancer. Ron DeSantis, for all his flaws, stood by her side. The activist left leaning MSM went after Casey DeSantis in public, cancer be damned. Gavin Newsom is on record cheating on his first wife. Also there is MSM suppression of him cheating on his second wife with a staffer. Also his 2nd wife is noted as being a "bagman" to help suppress the truth about Harvey Weinstein. The comparison basis is poison for Team Blue and the DNC. Not only that, to ascend Newsom would mean leapfrogging over Kamala Harris. When Newsom was young, he vacationed and was seen as a surrogate son by the Gettys. Yes, THOSE Gettys. How does that narrative play out in the culture of Identity Politics? See, that's the thing, Newsom's one big appeal is with suburban women voters. How will they feel about a serial cheater? If the contrast is a giant stick in the mud, but at least it's a military veteran who stood by his wife with cancer? It's less critical what the rest of us think about Newsom, but what you think and your women friends and coworkers and those in the female sphere everywhere, what you guys think of Newsom is a huge deal in his political future. "Trad Con" is becoming a new growing counter culture in America. As it grows, it makes Newsom's behavior even more abhorrent and progressively less defensible by the radical left. Newsom's best chances at POTUS is to win over someone just like you. But clearly he can't. So what does that really say about him in total? -
This is an interesting question. The most practical answer is the "uni-party" at some level fears a full blown military coup. Would you want to take orders from an idiot like Joe Biden ( or Susan Rice or Neera Tanden as a proxy for Obama or big corporate interests) if you were career military and you spent decades watching your friends and comrades die for greed, oil and political stupidity? Would you want to take orders from an imbecile like Donald Trump under those same circumstances? Think about if you and I and others here were high ranking military, and we spent decades in service, ascended to top positions of power, and we were told again and again about stupid things that needed to be done to appease nimrods like W Bush, Clinton, Obama, Biden, Hillary and Trump. How long could one show restraint with all that? Then we saw Biden abandoned billions in weapons to kill future generations of American soldiers across the world. Biden literally handed us all the tax bill to make it easier for our children to die so he could have a single talking point against Trump about Afghanistan. I suspect the levers of the "uni-party" know it's coming. The current military apparatus is going to buckle on them eventually. It's always happened in history. Always. Some government kept screwing it all up, then the military decided they just had enough. I also find it interesting how often the activist radicals here and at "the other place" can't wait to start laying into you and mocking you, at every turn. Never with information and substance, just more gaslighting and condescension. The real answer is they don't hate you, they hate the truth. They go after you as a proxy for their denial.

Obama fantasized about men : AKA Bathhouse Barry
Blue Horseshoe replied to HellToupee's topic in The Geek Club
When Susan Rice was ousted, Obama lost his control over day to day operations in the White House. Jill Biden can't do policy. She quickly understood that Joe Biden was going to be used as a sin eater by Obama for all the failures of this administration. So Neera Tanden is effectively running the White House right now. Attacks on Biden in the activist MSM are coming through David Axelrod. Obama's personal hatchet and majordomo. Otherwise the general public would NEVER see it at all. Obama cut a deal with Pelosi to push Newsom forward for POTUS 2024. Tanden is orchestrating attacks right back. Going for the jugular. If Obama is asked about this and denies it in the MSM, he will be cooked. If he admits to it, he will be cooked. If he says nothing, he will be cooked. There is no way out for Obama on this one. The Hill will cover Tanden because they are on the fringes. They need to push news that others won't cover to hold a platform. But the big hitters in the MSM won't touch this. They won't typically go near Tanden. However Rupert Murdoch might change this all up. The show Succession was built as a pure attack against the Murdoch Family, Fox News and the Trump family. Which violates the informal rules established starting with Chelsea Clinton going to college - Don't go after families in public and in the press. This is a fight inside Team Blue. They are trading body blows, but the bizarre impact is that it all helps Trump in the end. Things that Obama and Axelrod miscalculated 1) The informal relationship between Jill Biden and Doug Emhoff ( Kamala Harris' husband) Harris has been such a disaster, that her best play for power is to stay with Biden. She might ascend if he dies. Or he might live longer and she holds VPOTUS for possibly four more years and who knows after that, maybe she can force her way onto SCOTUS. 2) That Newsom would get lit up again about cheating on yet another wife with yet another staffer. There is heavy MSM suppression on this story now, and it won't last forever. And when there is one, there will likely be more. 3) That Amy Klobuchar would go full Frank Underwood on everyone. Klobuchar should have been the VPOTUS pick for 2020. Making the short list of Susan Rice, Gretchen Whitmer and Kamala Harris was insulting. Klobuchar controls many of the most powerful committees in Congress, thus she has influence on many of the levers around major corporate donors. She aligned with Biden because Obama picked Harris. All this helps Trump. That's the most hilarious thing about all of this right now. Each attack on Joe Biden through Axelrod via the backdoor only matters if Biden is forced out. If he wins the DNC ticket in 2024, that will cause cascading losses all down the ticket. The DNC could try to use it's corporate power brokers to assassinate Joe Biden, but then Harris would be POTUS. Then Harris would demand loyalty in public immediately from everyone. What happens if they don't give it? If they do, they still lose. As @seafoam always points out, it's because they are stupid. That's why Team Blue keeps failing, because they are this stupid. -
Obama fantasized about men : AKA Bathhouse Barry

As an individual, I could care less who Barack Obama sleeps with at night, just keep it in private and keep it to yourself. He's long been known to be involved with some of his "staffers" over time, women actually in the various administrations, and again, even with that, keep it to yourself. Man or woman, as an individual, it's not a concern of mine on a surface level. However, as an American citizen, I have a problem if it's ever impacted public policy or pressure to shift public administration down the chain in a certain direction. It's a fair concern if Obama was ever blackmailed into a specific direction over this kind of information. Because those public policy decisions impact all Americans period. It impacts our opportunities, the taxes we pay, the government services that may or may not be available, even down to things like access to needed medications and critical infrastructure like waste management, water treatment, local law enforcement, transportation, etc, etc. Also like Bill Clinton, and you can add Trump, Biden and even W Bush into this equation, did some sexual scandal create a question of overall integrity. Bill Clinton lied to the American people about Lewinsky. I don't care what "arrangement" that Bill and Hillary Clinton might have had in private, but lying to the public at large also has a domino effect. Once that scandal came out, Dee Dee Myers, probably the most impactful and skill Press Secretary in the modern era, is well known in the media world for suggesting to the administration to start bombing. Who? Anyone. There are people dead around the world who might be alive today if not for trying to drag Lewinsky and Ken Starr out of the national daily media cycle. Every time Trump's insane and exhausting media circus slam fists the Stormy Daniels scandal, it's not air time talking about things like affordable housing for the working class. Again, these lies as individuals mean little in a narrow context, but once actual policy is potentially leveraged or impacted, then we are talking about something that punishes every day Americans. Gavin Newsom spent a decade as Lieutenant Governor in California. He had to rot so long because his scandal in San Francisco with sleeping with his best friend's wife, both staffers, wouldn't wash off. While in that position, he pushed for a lot of legislation that was clearly misandrist. Why? He wanted to change the narrative out in public with him and women. Every Californian for generations, particularly actual men, have to pay the price, from a policy perspective, because Newsom couldn't keep it in his pants. If there is a linkage with this story and the sweeping "Pro Trans Extremism" in this country in what is informally known as "Obama's Third Term/Obama's Shadow Term", then that impacts children all across this country. Also if Iran is able to fully develop nuclear weapons, that will happen in no small part to the Obama Administration. Iran will no doubt come to kill us all. I know @JustinCharge gets picked on for saying nuclear war is around the corner in almost every corner possible, but I'll be the first to say that it Iran gets nukes, they are coming for our blood. And if it happens, Obama's imbecile foreign policy routine with them will be the root of much of it. So yes, if this Obama scandal turns into some impact that leads to all out nuclear holocaust, then it matters.
