But it's still going. So you understand what I'm saying? So, okay. All right, gang. Obviously, a ton of stories to cover with everything going on with Canada, Mexico, Colombia, Panama. I mean, there's a ton of things that's going on there. And then you have stories about Bukele this morning showing their prison, which looks insane, offering inmates from here to be – he didn't show it today.
He showed it yesterday. Inmates from here to be sent to El Salvador. And some are saying it's not constitutional, but that's a way of being a partner. So we'll talk about that. And then at the same time, Luka, which is kind of weird. Luka gets traded from the Mavs to the Lakers, and nobody knew about it. LeBron didn't know about it. Luka didn't know about it.
Even Mark Cuban seems flabbergasted about the trade because he sold majority of the company to somebody else. We will talk about trades. We will talk about Pierre. We will talk about Justin. We will talk about Panama Canal. We will talk about how she... weighs retaliation after Trump hits China with 10% tariff. And Schumer says Trump's tariffs will increase price of Super Bowl party staples.
He holds, I think, a Corona and guacamole, which is... Oh, yeah, avocado. Yeah, avocado. Gold prices hits record high on Lumen US. Right now, I think a kilo of gold is officially...

Chapter 2: How do tariffs impact the U.S. economy and its relationships?
This is not going to stop anytime soon. By the way, CBS. News was forced to fork over edited Harris interview that Trump called out. They eventually had to force to send it over, and this is what the clip was. We've all remembered this, and I've got to read a little bit more about this. This was the clip, and I'll tell you more about what's going on here. Go ahead, Rob.
But it seems that Prime Minister Netanyahu is not listening.
Well, Bill, the work that we have done has resulted in a number of – movements in that region by Israel that were very much prompted by or a result of many things, including our advocacy for what needs to happen in the region.

CBS News defended the edit, says the same question, same answer, but time constraints requires a cut. And meanwhile, staffers are irate over talk of Paramount settling. And so this whole thing that's taking place,
A CBS correspondent said we're helpless to whatever Shari and the bosses decide to do, but it's a real shame to think the news division is bargaining chip in the broader deal.
