Alright.
1:37:58
Okay.
1:37:59
Good afternoon.
1:37:59
My name is Christopher Leon Johnson, and I wanna make this clear that the reason they got a c grade, it wasn't because they wasn't doing a bad job.
1:38:06
It was because we had this little speaker who's trying to run for run for mayor, had a big feeling that she weaponized her little her little grading system to make them say, look.
1:38:16
If you don't support me for mayor, then I'm a bury your bury your agency.
1:38:20
And I have a big feeling that they didn't they didn't wanna dance her her little dirty beat.
1:38:25
So she tanked there.
1:38:26
She gave him a bad grade.
1:38:28
I believe that the veterans committee is doing a great job.
1:38:30
The issue is that this the city council and the city council, especially with that little that little the little lady over there, missus Sandy Nurse.
1:38:37
She's not here right now, but they need to have a city council hearing to remove her as the one of the members of the city council committee for veterans to put us somewhere else because, yeah, her father's a veteran, but she don't give a damn about no veterans in this in this she don't give she don't care about no veterans.
1:38:52
She don't care.
1:38:52
Something like she don't care about no veterans.
1:38:54
You need I didn't even remove city nurse.
1:38:56
That's the start.
1:38:57
Remove city nurse.
