So, and I think General Sunday, you know, hit the no you know, hit the nail on the head that we gotta work together across the aisle, and I see that happening. And I I really believe as, as he takes as he has taken office as the head law enforcement officer and prosecutor in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, I'm really excited for what the future is gonna bring for us here in law enforcement, being able to do the job that we were originally, trained to do, but also work with the mental health and social service field, because there's so many problems that we're facing going into 2025. Thank you."
