rhode island is the first state in the country to have an offshore wind farms, the labor involved in that process from the very beginning. in fact, just five turbines, just the turbines off of flock island. that created 300 jobs. the administration is that nearly 80,000 similar jobs and they do involve welding and traditional trades. indeed, or stead, one of the biggest win developers in the northeast has already assigned a pla, a project planned agreement, with the building trade union for all future wind farms. so, new energy is not the and of good paying union jobs. it is the beginning, and, it also satisfies the demand for climate change. there has been a lot of discussion here about a shift of the market from coal to natural gas, which is wonderful. i do not think that feeling is shared by the united mine workers. so, let's be realistic. we do have to deal with this climate change issue, we have to deal with good solid jobs, we can do both if we try to do that. rather than just being rhetorical about all of this. doctor vajjhala, how would the economic benefit of the climate disc

rhode island hasn't said yes when he takes his oath of office as president. so only 11 states in the union and those are indivisible borders. and and in theory, rhode island and north carolina are independent nations. and they could make a treaty, as it were, with putin and you're going to have actually europe in mercenaries, hessians on american soil. so you've got to get them on board in washington and understands all of that totally. and in part for geostrategic reasons. madison actually says some of this in the first congress, but washington says it first. so madison gets it through. but washington actually pivots, i would say earlier than madison, because, remember, they, in effect, opposed the bill of rights in philadelphia mason was the guy who was proposing it. and they said thanks, but no thanks. and it takes madison like a year to make a pivot getting all these letters from jefferson haranguing him and he just kind of ignores them in jefferson's. so madison is important in the bill of rights and he shapes it and he's looking at are the best provisio
