00:19Smart guy, and I am honored to work with him.

00:21Kristi Noem, we talk very frequently. There's no daylight between us.

00:26Tom, on the fentanyl situation on the Mexico border and with Canadians, can you give us an update on whether you see progress on that?

00:34That's the basis for the tariff on both countries.
