Don't clap too hard. The thing that was weird. Don't worry, they don't. The thing that struck me is weird. There we go. So in the message that I saw today, PDX has said that you were being censored because you told service members not to follow lawful orders. I watched the video. It could have used music, but I watched the video. You clearly didn't say that. That's right. You said, don't follow unlawful orders. (02:40–02:49)
