00:00Historic day here in Alaska. Just got off of Air Force One, meeting with the

00:04president. Had a brief meeting with him, talked about a number of things. He wants

00:09to let Alaska know that he loves Alaska and he's looking forward to something

00:13positive coming out of these talks today. We don't know what that's going to be.

00:17Time will tell. They're meeting right now. Also, we talked to the president about

00:21these rumors that Alaska's minerals are going to be sold off to the Russians or

00:26Alaskans gas is going to be transported by the Russians. We spoke with him and

00:30some of the staff on the plane and that's not true. This is some would say

00:34that's fake news. Some of them would say that's rumors. But nonetheless, it was a

00:39quick meeting. It was a good meeting. Again, he loves Alaska. Excited about

00:44what's happening up here with the gas line and critical minerals and other

00:47things that he's working on as well. And he quickly wrapped up the meeting so he

00:52could prepare to speak with the Russian president that it also landed at the

00:57same time. And again, we're optimistic that this is the beginning of

01:03something good, hopefully a just peace. But we're just glad to have him here in

01:09Alaska. I think it's one of his favorite places, to be honest with you. And just

01:13had a great conversation. It was short, but a great conversation.
