as you mentioned, a tbi, traumatic brain injury is one thing. but the physical wounds in addition to other wounds, those things can really play a role in our response. one of the key things we are looking at is how much of our forces actually is protected and if that is not something that is actually helping keep our people safe, then these responses will be calibrated and the level will be raised higher than it was prior to this. >> i want to switch to ukraine. you have seen the news. ukraine is claiming it destroyed another russian vessel when it attacked a port town in crimea. there's video obtained by reuters of a massive explosion after ukraine's strike. let's take a look at this. pretty amazing to see this. big symbolic victory at the least for ukraine, but at the same time, ukraine has all but retreated from the city in donetsk. where does the war effort overall stand right now? >> this is a really interesting question that has a lot of political implications here in the u.s. it's clear the ukrainians can still mount spectacular attacks l

after tbi only a matter of time before they lose their life.e are do absolutely nothing but striking weapon depots. that really doesn't deter our enemies and if you are the philosophy of the former administration that went after qasem soleimani. went after people and killed them and said look, knock it off -- not just knock it off. but we are going to take you guys out until you understand what our red line is no one knows what the administration's red line is. >> steve: easier during the trump years they designated the houthi rebels they said they are terrorists. and that was the red line. what does this administration do? they come in. they start trying to normalize relations with iran. next thing you know houthi rebels off the terror list. if they were on the list this would be easy. >> ainsley: absolutely right. 10 minutes after the hour. when iowa talks people listen. we are officially six weeks away from the iowa caucus. will desantis or nikki haley attach up to trump's big lead? we're going to ask our panel of iowa voters. >> steve: exce

interests in the area have been tbi's. i mean, we've seen the effects of them cedric, i don't mean to diminish them at all, but those have been more minor then this case, where you have a service member critically injured. did the fact that a service member injured so severely change the u.s. response to kata'ib hezbollah? and should it have? >> i think it did. you know, it's hard to say exactly what went into the pentagon discussions, the central command discussions related to this response. but, it's pretty clear that the level of response, the frequency of response, all of that was calibrated because a service member was so critically injured. so, as you mentioned a tbi, traumatic brain injury, is one thing. but, these physical wounds, in addition to these other wounds, those things can really play a role in our response. and one of the key things that we are looking at is how much of our forces are actually protected in these areas, and if that force protection effort is not, and is actually something that is helping k

. >> i call this tbi portrait. from the outside i look fine. from the inside looking out, it is like this painting appears . there are broken spaces where my brain is not connecting to one another and the way i did this painting, i threw a mirror on the floor to see what happens when glass falls. that was my prayer. what, lord, happened when that glass fell on me. i cut it pastel drawing of myself into the same pieces as the broken glass. >> how long did that take? >> that was about four weeks. but that is also on the path of me being up two hours a day. i would do a little bit , lie down. do a little bit . back and forth. the sleeping, praying, and healing. that gentle title motion. >> let's see the last two pictures of the family before we go to the next segment. we will run out of time but i want to see the wedding picture. what year was that? >> 1986. that is hubert ivery. and we were married in fresno. starry died . >> your dad was there. >> we had so many ministers in the wedding. we have baptist, christian methodist, episcopal. everythin

not to diminish tbi's. they're serious. we've seen some injuries that aren't as bad that the u.s. is retaliating for. what are your concerns if things get worse on what's happening with u.s. service members? >> that's a tough hurdle to cross. you understand this, brianna. any one fatality and any one injury is unacceptable. and if we had no injuries as a result of the provocations from these proxys, that activity should be punished. injuries shouldn't be the standard by which we evaluate the response or what type of action we're going to take so we can really take the initiative and get these proxys on their heals and get them worried about going to sleep at night. conducting operations. going to the market. they need to be concerned that the united states and its partners in the region are coming after them. it should not be the number of casualties that are being sustained by the united states. because you just described it. one casualty then leads to two and maybe those two are okay and we can get beyond it. nonsense. there needs to be an aggressive action on the part of the un

to unveil that and i really proud because that we had a retired general who was leading one of the tbi we had a meeting and he said to me, you know, we were i was pretty skeptical. i thought this was just going to be another, you know, feel good awareness raising campaign. all good. but that's all i thought it was going to be. and he said, you've completely changed mind with that initiative. that was huge to change that curriculum. and then we wanted to do something broader. so, you know, you know, change direction became it was a great campaign that again, we lifted up a campaign that someone else had designed, which is, you know, the five signs used to sort of hold up because, you know, look, we learn the five signs of cancer. you learn, you know, you know how to recognize a heart attack. we're you know, we learn things like cpr are we don't treat mental health like we treat physical health. and mrs. obama used to say, like, you would never tell somebody with a broken leg to just, you know, shake it off, go back to work. of course, you can get up and walk around. just walk around. yo

knows, who wanted what, there were a lot of victims, now they will bring more to you, here for the tbirnum. i know him, tell me, you are alexey larin, larin, i am larin, here they are, stop, it hurts, what’s going on here? i ’m the head of the department, please put things in order here, but first i need to take testimony, while the journalists are here, journalists, but what, this is the agenda, construction, a rally, these protests, and protest is now the most the main thing, no, now the most important thing is to look at the patient, let's take them all out, don't breathe hard, the pain is too much to spin, it's too hard to turn on , x-ray, what are you looking at, idiots, what have you brought to this point, yours? the boss was taken away on a gurney, and we are helping to build a temple , is it really not clear, our larin suffered for the holy faith, who are you, this is our park, this is our playground where our children play, and who allowed you to destroy the playground in the first place, yes the temple will be here, the children will join in, you know, well, everyone shut up,

teague mentioned, uh, tbi does have a notice of violation for the enclosure of the solarium with solid walls and the deck there. and it's, uh, the case is just waiting for, um, either a permit to issue to either legalize this or revert it back to this last legal use. so this variance is part of that process of legalizing it. thank you. okay. no questions. thank you. is there any public comment on this item from anyone inside the hearing room? okay i see one hand raised on zoom. mark anderson, please go ahead. uh, yes. my name is, uh. can you hear me? yes, we can. you have three minutes. thank you. so my name is mark anderson. i live with my wife. uh, 2116 18th street. so we are one of the 5 or 6 property. his depending on how you count that share of backyard space with the applicant property. um, and i want to say that our objections to it are don't have to do with views really much more to do with privacy, because despite what the lawyers representing the owners just said from that vantage point, they can directly see into sort of the private family rooms of multiple properties, not o
