Sam: So last question and it's sort of inspired on some level by what we've talked about in terms of the strategy around the BIF and the build back better. And a piece that was in the intercept about Amani Badhasso is a who is challenging a congressperson from the congresswoman’s 21-year tenure in congress Betsy McCall from Minnesota. Who has been you know claims progressive bona fides? I think in this article she states that she voted for you know the big. Which you know placed her in some type of more progressive because you had voted against that agenda which I thought was a little silly. But there was a quote from Badasso that was something to the effect of here in the progressive movement we have to think about what democrat means beyond just who votes along a certain line. Frankly, we need leadership that just gives a damn about folks in the community. I think that a little bit speaks to what the cues are for people in congress. But in terms of leadership, Nancy Pelosi had pledged that she was not going to retain leadership if you know past this term if I remember correctly. I don't know if she intends to maintain that pledge. I don't know if I will be the speaker of the house come 2022. but at one point people are going to have to retire. I think it is stunning, frankly.
Omar: I don't think I like where it's going.
Sam: Well I mean what is going on in terms of planning for the leader of the leadership fight that is coming? And it is going to be a big fight. and where do you have a sense of who the progressive candidate for leadership is or what the strategy is or any of that?
