It is up you guys, I'll go back to another one. If you're new to the channel, I'm Will Pony, I do new car truck SUV reviews on YouTube. And today we are in the brand new 2024 Chevrolet Corvette courtesy of Apple Chevrolet in York PA for more information on their inventory. Please feel free to check out the link in the description box below. So we are in this one today because I've only reviewed the C8 Corvette once and I feel like this car is worthy of me reviewing at least a couple dozen more times. And there actually are some new colors for the 2024 model year. We have one of them today. So I'll be going over that a little bit later in the video. There's some new wheel designs and plenty of other changes as well. So ultimately in this video, we will be testing out and going over everything about this one from acceleration to braking, steering fuel, ride quality, sound system, exhaust clip, all that fun stuff. So having said all of that, what do you guys say? Let's just go ahead and jump right into it. And as always, let's start with pricing. So as you can imagine, there are a couple different configurations for the 2024 Chevrolet Corvette. The first one being the one LT starting at $69,995, two LT for $77,095, and the three LT starting at $81,745. That was all pricing for the Coupe. If you wanted to add the convertible variant, simply add $4,900 to any of those prices, which is a lot less expensive than it used to be. I think it used to be like adding 6,500 or somewhere in that ballpark. But anyways, regardless of trim level or configuration that you go with, the power plant is going to be the same. Powering the Beast is a 6.2 liter direct injected V8, putting out 490 horsepower around 6,400 RPM, 465 pound-feet of torque coming in at 5,100 RPM. That power, by the way, is bumped up five horsepower and five pound-feet of torque if you were to go with the Z51 package or the performance exhaust either or. But power set to the rear wheels through an eight-speed automatic with paddle shifters, which you guys know, we will be testing out those paddle shifters here in a little bit. Zero to 60 time coming in at approximately three seconds flat or 2.8 seconds for the Z51. Top speed, 184 miles per hour with MPG numbers coming in at 16 in the city, 24 on the highway, taking premium unleaded fuel. But so that before we do any kind of fun acceleration test here in our C8 Corvette, I did want to mention to you guys, the drive modes, there's essentially a circular dial located just to the right of those shift buttons there. Those drive modes will include tour, weather, sport, track, my mode, and there is a Z mode actually on the steering wheel itself as well. Ultimately adjusting things like the shift points and throttle response, the steering sensitivity, suspension settings, and actually the braking response as well.  So anyways, now that we've got all of that out of the way, what do you guys say? Let's go ahead and find a straightaway. Let's put the paddle shifters here to the test first and let's see how quickly these paddle shifters are going to react for us here. Quick, quick, quick. They're lighting quick. Probably the quickest paddle shifters I've ever experienced. They're right up there with Porsche. They're right up there with Mercedes AMG. They are insanely quick reacting paddle shifters. That was pretty darn good. So it doesn't get any better than these paddle shifters, but now that I've got that out of the way, let's go ahead and find one more straightaway. Let's have the fun part now. Let's put the acceleration here to the test. I'm actually gonna try to time it. There is a performance timer up on the gauges here. I'll go over that a little bit later in the video, but that essentially is gonna clock your zero to 60 time and a bunch of other stuff too, but let's go ahead and give that a shot and let's see how quickly we can get our new 2024 Chevrolet Corvette here up to speed. All right, in three, two, one, go. Oh, we're sliding. Okay, so we were sliding there at the beginning. It's a little bit colder of a day out today. Zero to 60 came in at 4.9 just because I couldn't get any traction whatsoever, but still 4.9 seconds. That's enough to put a smile on your face. That was insane. And I can only imagine if it was a nice summer or spring day with the temperatures being a little bit warmer than whatever it is today. I think it's like 40 degrees or something. So it's not too crazy, but still not enough to get any decent traction here on the street. So again, drag strip easily zero to 60 in three seconds or even on a warmer day, I can see that as well, but colder climates, it's not gonna work out too well. But anyways, to go along with that acceleration as always, braking is equally important. So upfront, you will find 13.6 inch ventilated front discs in the back. They're actually bigger, what you hardly ever see. 13.8 inch ventilated rear discs and Brembo brakes do come standard, by the way. So got a lot of that configuration. You're gonna get larger brakes for the Z51 package, of course, 60 is your stopping distance, comes in at 97 feet. And that is probably the quickest number I've ever seen. I remember my Mustang GT came in at 99 feet, but 97, that's insane. So as far as braking power goes, it instantly brings you to a stop. It is absolutely insane. The brakes bite so hard. So it's definitely got a race car set up when it comes to braking. There's absolutely no issues with that. Then touching on suspension and handling, upfront you're gonna get a short and long arm double wishbone type suspension. In the back direct acting stabilizer bar, you're gonna get an adjustable suspension with the Z51. And there is also magnetic ride control that goes for $1,895. Essentially what that does is it monitors each shock absorber individually, not only adjusting to the root of perfection, it's giving you a smoother ride, but it also tightens up that suspension during heavy cornering, really giving you better handling, giving you the best of both worlds. So that's always something I like to recommend because you really can tell the difference. At least I can tell the difference whenever I drive the same car, one with and one without it. So it is an noticeable difference there, but as far as ride quality goes, you do tend to feel a little bit more of the road, but having said that, when it comes to the Corvette, it's probably one of the smoothest riding sports cars that you can experience. So I'm comparing it in my mind to my old Ford Mustang GT or a Chevy Camaro or something like that. This thing's actually not that bad when it comes to ride quality in a sports car at least. So I'll put it that way. As far as steering feel goes, it does adjust, depending upon the drive mode that you put it in. You put it in that sport driving mode, it's a much heavier weight to it, but even in our tour driving mode, it still instantly points you in the direction that you want to go. So it's a great steering feel. I love the hexagonal shape too. And again, we'll get more into the steering wheel later in the video, but it definitely gives the driver a better feeling of being in control but it does feel like you're in a race car with this hexagonal steering wheel. So absolutely no issues there. As far as cabin noise goes, you get a little bit of the engine noise when you really get on it because the engine is literally right behind us here. You gotta love a mid-engine setup.  Then touching on rear visibility, it is obviously not the best. You don't have a ton of visibility back there, but it is to be expected in a car like this. So it's something you definitely get used to. Whenever I review the Camaro or a 370Z, it's the same deal, but yet everyone in the comments who owns one of these cars, they always say, it's something that you get used to. It's not that bad, guys. Don't worry about it. I'm gonna go ahead and take the word of the people in the comments section and say that you will get used to it. And also I am looking at a head-up display that comes on the 2LT and 3LT trim levels, projecting your speed limit and safety features up onto your windshield. So you gotta love that as well. And there is actually an electronic rear view mirror, which is newly standard for the 2024 model year. I just turned it on. That is pretty darn cool. So I don't know. So if you want an even better visibility, screw what I said about the rear visibility. If you don't like it, turn on the rear camera mirror because that is perfect. So anyways, that about rounds out the performance segment of this review, you guys. Let's now go find a cool spot and let's check out the exterior of our brand new 2024 Chevrolet Corvette. All right, so here she is, you guys. The new 2024 Chevrolet Corvette finished in cacti green. In case you were curious, yes, that is one of the new colors for 2024. The other two new colors, we're gonna be Riptide Blue and Seawolf Gray. Personally, I think this is the new best color for the 2024 Corvette. I love this cacti green. Personally, I would probably throw the yellow rotors on there as well as some yellow seatbelts and call it a day because this thing is dang good looking. But anyways, that's my spec. Let's go ahead and start with where this one is made. Taking a look at the VIN, first character is the number one indicating that the new 2024 C8 Corvette is built and assembled here in the US as it should be. But do want to go over some convertible specs real quick for anybody who is interested in that. Add 77 pounds for the convertible. The top retracts in only 17 seconds. It can operate at up to speeds of 30 miles per hour as well. And essentially it uses six electric motors to open and close the top in case you were curious about that. But let's go ahead and start up front. So let me start with these massive air curtains down here to the sides. I think that is the first thing I always noticed on the C8 Corvette. But gloss black accents surrounding that. You gotta map black front lip then. To the sides LED headlights with LED daytime running lights. You do get the automatic feature meaning when it starts to get dark in the night headlights will turn on automatically for you there. You also do get automatic high beams though. So if you have your high beams on at night and since it's a vehicle coming in the opposite direction it's gonna automatically dim them back to low beams and when that vehicle is gone it's gonna automatically bounce it back up to high beams for you there. So gotta love that. And one of the other cool things about the front here I'll throw in some B roll real quick but you have a frunk. Since it's a mid-engine car you probably were wondering if you're not familiar with the C8 Corvette at least is what's up front? There's obviously a hood there. You have a frunk kind of like a Tesla. So that's pretty cool. You got some added storage there. And then if you're wondering yes there's a trunk in the back actually as well. We'll get more into that later but anyways I love seeing the frunk but anyways that is the front end. Let's now go ahead and make our way to the side. All right so I'm just noticing now this car kind of blends in with our background here but anyways let's go ahead and make our way to the side. Body colored power dustable side mirrors they will be heated with LED integrated turd signals they are power folding and the driver's side side mirror is actually an auto dimming side mirror as well. So if somebody has their high beams on behind you at night you do have the auto dimming rear view mirror but you also have the auto dimming side mirror as well. So that is pretty darn cool and again massive air vents towards the back. Let me actually get up a little bit close so I can give you guys a little bit of an up close and personal here with these air vents and yes of course they are functional with it being a mid-engine car that allows cooling to the rear engine there. So that is definitely pretty cool you see what I did there cooling, engine, cool, yeah. Anyways taking a look at the wheel setup of course it is a stagger fitman you actually get 19 inches up front and 20 inches in the back and again there are plenty of new wheel designs for 2024 what we have I don't believe is one of them I feel like I've seen this one before but that pretty much rounds out the side profile let's now go ahead and make our way to the back. All right something else since we are around to the back of this one this is one of my favorite looks if not my favorite look on the Corvette here because of course you have it kind of a body color shark fin antenna and that's where that rear camera mirror camera is going to be located so guys could see that up there but one of the interesting things between the coupe and the convertible is with the convertible you actually do not have access to see the rear engine whereas with the coupe you do have some nice access to see what is back there so I do want to mention that definitely one of the big differences between the coupe and convertible but anyways you do have the Corvette lettering spelled out horizontally found in the rear trunk there of course plenty of rear spoilers available the Z51 is going to give you the highest rear spoiler we do have kind of a gloss black mild rear spoiler which I think looks good back there cause there are plenty of gloss black accents on this thing I do like the LED tail lights I think they look good but just below those LED tail lights you got more ventilation right there so that is functional yet again you can see through it hopefully the camera is showing that you can see through it but anyways you do have a little bit of a rear diffuser down below there and to the sides dual exhaust outlets with quad stainless steel tips or black tips the black tips are optional but I love that look but anyways having said that I do believe you guys know what we have to do next here as always here is that exhaust clip I need someone else to see you around to the back of this one when it comes to opening that rear trunk there is a button on the key fob to go ahead and open it but the coolest part about that rear trunk is the fact that it is a soft closed trunk kind of like Mercedes-Benz and BMW does with their doors when you don't close the trunk all the way it's going to kind of suction it back in so that is a pretty cool little feature I never saw it on a trunk before the C8 Corvette came out I always saw it on doors so I don't know I love it but anyways once opened up cranking capacity back there comes in at 12.6 cubic feet so not a ton but then again that is what the front is for of course there are no back seats so I'm going to go ahead and skip that but then making our way up to the front seats 8-way power adjustable front seats do come standard the GT2 bucket seats are going to come in the 3LT which by the way is the trim level that we have today and I love these seats because I love the carbon fiber accents on them they're all a 1P seat as well you got the Corvette logo at the headrest and they are 100% bucket seats they definitely hold you in place incredibly well they are heated and ventilated front seats by the way for the 2LT and 3LT trim levels overall insanely comfortable and again hold you in place so freakishly well around the turn so big fan of that but now let's go ahead and take a look at the steering wheel because I'm a big fan of this as well it is tilt and telescoping and its power adjustable is leather wrapped however you can get a suede finish to it we do have that option which is pretty darn cool as well so that's what I'm looking at it is a hexagonal steering wheel also a big fan of that and it is actually heated for the 2LT and 3LT trim levels but now let's go ahead and make our way to the start up and let me start by showing you guys the key here you got your Corvette logo on the one side when you flip it over lock unlock that remote start button that's going to be the middle circular button there and then of course you have buttons to pop the trunk and the trunk so that is a pretty cool key setup but it is all keyless entry with the push button starts all I'm going to do here is simply put them off from the brake and press that silver engine start button located just by the driver's right knee and so once started up 12 inch digital gauge cluster does come standard and of course it can be completely adjusted using the steering wheel mounting controls found on the right side of the steering wheel and of course when you change the drive mode it is going to adjust the look of those gauges as well for example when I just put it in that sport driving mode it gave a bunch of red hues and I don't think I mentioned it earlier it is going to open up the exhaust valves and creating a much more rumbly noise as well which is pretty darn cool when you put it in track mode it kind of looks like a Hada S2K gauges with just the RPMs at the very top that's pretty cool as well I love this very customizable that's one of the beauties of digital gauges is that you can really it's just a software update to completely change the look of your gauges so I don't know I think that's pretty amazing but of course it has things like outside temperature how many miles you have left until you hit empty trip A, trip B there's the time of the day and pretty much everything you could possibly want on the gauges up there but now let's go ahead and make our way to overall interior quality because again Chevy Kilda here with the Corvette six different seatbelt colors let me start by mentioning that I personally, I tried to configure this one before I went out on this drive I love the yellow seat belts I think they look pretty darn cool but again there's six different colors you have to choose from carbon fiber trim is available we have that, we have it just around the gauge cluster here we have it surrounding the window buttons it's definitely everywhere so I'm a big fan of that universal home remote for the two LT and three LT trim levels so up to three different garage doors wireless phone charger for the two LT and three LT trim levels as well it's kind of located just in the middle of the driver and passenger seats kind of behind them there's that row of buttons that the C8 Corvette is known for giving you everything like your climate information heated and ventilated seat buttons as well you do have a couple cup holders just to the left of that let's take a look inside the center armrest here there is almost no center armrest there is not a whole lot of space whatsoever in that but one of the coolest things touching on the glove box here you might be feeling around the glove box and be wondering where is the button to actually open this thing it's actually kind of a 007 hidden button just in between those air vents there for the passenger there so you just press that and it's gonna open up for you and there's even more space in there for you if you needed it so that is pretty cool also love the aluminum speaker covers we have a suede headliner as well with contrast stitching on the roof so Chevy did an absolutely wonderful job this is a luxury car on the inside and a race car at the same time so there's nothing wrong with the interior quality in this thing at all but anyways let's now go ahead and touch on the infotainment screen 8-inch color touch screen display comes standard Bluetooth and audio streaming Android Auto, Apple CarPlay gonna find a factory navigation system for the two LT and three LT trim levels you can check out your climate control settings up there there is a lap timer as well that's pretty insane also of course your radio information so when it comes to the sound systems there's a couple of them you're gonna find a Bose 10 speaker sound system for the one LT and then a Bose 14 speaker sound system for the two and three LT trim levels so obviously with us having the three LT we got the 14 speaker sound system with us here today so let's go ahead and turn on the radio see what we got playing this morning and let's test out the clarity of this one yeah that was plenty fun absolutely no issues there plenty of clarity, clarity was amazing imagine 14 speakers in the cabin the size of the Corvette, it's overkill ton of bass as well so really this sound system for what the Corvette is it's absolutely brilliant but anyways, last thing I wanna mention to you guys on the infotainment screen is when you do put the Corvette in reverse you will find a very, very high definition rear view camera coming standard across the board letting you know who or what is behind you which is always is going to lead us into safety and so front side side curtain ear bags do come standard tire pressure monitoring system rear parking sensors actually come standard as well you gotta love that side blind zone alert then coming with the two LT and the three LT trim levels that's gonna be those little car icons in your side mirrors so you know who is in your blind spot you gotta love that then as well so overall what it comes to my final thoughts here extremely quick absolutely insane acceleration in this thing I wish it was a little bit warmer so I really could have put that zero to 60 to the test but insanely quick paddle shifters I will say that a lot of times paddle shifters are just kind of like a gimmick feature that most cars put on them and they're not that quick and nobody ever uses them because they're not that quick but with the Corvette they are the quickest they are insanely quick and I love them I love that the Corvette has them here but also insane braking you can't beat a 60 zero and only 97 feet that's definitely race car good right there insane handling as well great interior quality great customization as well I'm not just talking about the different gauge customization I mean when you actually configure the Corvette you have so many different customization options which can really bring the price up by the way our car tops out at nearly $100,000 that we are in today because of all the customization that you can do to this thing so I like it for that reason as well but anyways that pretty much rounds out this review you guys thank you so much for watching for free to follow me on social media if you want to see different spy shots of these cars like this one before they actually get to YouTube be sure to hit the subscribe and the bell notification button if you're new car reviews that is what we do here on this channel after all do appreciate you guys watching more than you know and I will see you guys all in the next video dig old


So it is now my great pleasure to introduce our midday keynote speaker, White House Chief of Staff, Dennis McDonough. Dennis has served as the White House Chief of Staff since February 2013, having previously served as the Deputy National Security Advisor from October 2010 to January 2013. Before that, he was Chief of Staff to the National Security Council, the Deputy National Security Advisor for strategic communications, and a key foreign policy aid to then Senator Obama during the campaign. So that's Dennis's resume, minus the stellar college football career and bicycling to work. But what's not on Dennis's resume and what makes me especially grateful that Dennis has taken the time to be here today is that Dennis has been enormously important in integrating TFI into our national security dialogue. In his prior roles in the NSC and in his current capacity, Dennis has always ensured that Treasury not only has a seat at the table, but also that our potential contribution is heard and considered. Across a very broad range of issues, from Iran to North Korea to counterterrorism to intelligence, Dennis has asked how we could assist and has supported as appropriate what we've had to offer. In a very real way, Dennis is responsible for what this symposium is all about. So it is my great pleasure to introduce the White House Chief of Staff, Dennis McDonough. David, thank you very much for that very generous and overly generous introduction. John, it's really nice to see you. Neil, great to see you as well. I want to say thanks to everybody at the Office of Terrorism and Financial Intelligence, past and present, for your contributions to America's security and global leadership. Let me just name three people in particular, all three whom I've just seen, Juan Zarate, who I just saw out in the hallway, Stuart Levy, and obviously David Cohen. They are three unbelievably capable leaders, and these are three people whom I've always grateful knowing are on my team. The work of the Office of Terrorism and Financial Intelligence is vital as you've been talking all morning to our country's security and to the world. And it's possible because of the tireless efforts of many of you who are here today, people whom I've been fortunate enough to work with over the last few years, but let me just name some of them. I've seen some of them as well as I've walked in and I'm sure many others are still back at their desks working away. I want to just name four in particular, Adam Zubin, Leslie Ireland, Danny Glazer, and Jennifer Shasky Calvary. Four unbelievably dedicated and capable people who have been working, and I've seen them working firsthand and implementing the TFI work day in and day out month after month. This is work that frankly out-thinks, out-maneuvers, criminals and terrorists in every corner of the world. And I believe, having watched this government work very closely now for nearly six years, that they, those four individuals plus the three I mentioned a minute ago, are the embodiment of public service and I'm deeply grateful for their work. The threats we face, obviously, as you've been discussing in living, are increasingly complex. It's our job to stay at least one step ahead of them. That means using every tool at our disposal, every element of our national power to protect ourselves and our allies and to stop bad actors of all kinds, whether they're political regimes, terrorist networks, or solitary extremists. We have to be innovative and adaptive, always willing to consider new ideas and revise our approach as needed. And above all, we need to be persistent to keep our heads down and forge ahead for as long as it takes. That's what the President believes, obviously. And we saw an example of his leadership this weekend. After nearly five years in captivity, Sergeant Bullberg Dahl is coming home. This was a result of several years of effort by our diplomats and brave men and women in uniform who helped recover the one remaining prisoner of war from Iraq and Afghanistan. Let's also be clear about how we got this done. We've been consulting with members of Congress about this effort, including the potential transfer of five Gitmo detainees for years. I know this because I participated in many of those consultations myself when I served on the staff of the National Security Council. So this should not have been a surprise to any of the members of Congress who have been consulting about it, commenting about it. And I was with the President this weekend when he met with the Bergdals. All Americans should share in the joy that they feel, and all Americans should know that we did what was necessary to get Bull back. We did not have 30 days to wait to get this done. And when you're Commander-in-Chief, you have to act when there's an opportunity for action. And let me be clear, there's absolutely no qualification or caveat to the principle that guided the President in this instance. The United States of America does not leave our men and women in uniform behind, ever. More broadly, our efforts in Afghanistan and beyond remind us that counter-terrorism is never easy. Oftentimes, the world and the American people, frankly, don't even learn of our success. That's the nature of this work, of your work, of TFI's work. But persistent, dedicated efforts pays off. And few know that better than all the people who at TFI do this work day in and day out. Ten years ago when this unit was created, the notion of using financial tools to stop terrorism and international crimes was still pretty new. And frankly, was seen as an issue of defense. Today, it's a core asset of our national security, and it has us on offense. On behalf of the President, I want to thank you for the enormous range of your work, from the efforts of FinCEN to stop money laundering, to the efforts of the Office of Terrorist Financing and Financial Crimes to stop money from getting to terrorists and criminals, and the sanctions against the regimes that violate international rules. At the Executive Office of Asset Forfeiture, you've directed forfeited funds to law enforcement initiatives. At the Office of Intelligence and Analysis, you help policymakers at the highest levels better understand about how illicit finance works, and therefore how we can stop it. All this work is sophisticated, creative, and ever more nuanced. They've got both Skelples and Sledgehammers in their box of tools, and I can't count the number of times the President and his team have relied on their work and their judgment. When it comes to many of the President's national security priorities, TFI, as David just said, has been an absolutely invaluable asset. A few years ago, the Iranian nuclear program was rapidly advancing. Since then, the United States has built a coalition of nations and businesses willing to impose crippling sanctions on Iran and isolate it from the international financial system, and TFI obviously is critical to that work. That included cutting off many of Iran's banks and shrinking its oil sales, which helped bring Iran to the negotiating table. When Muammar Gaddafi brutally suppressed a Democratic uprising, the President issued an executive order directing this office to prevent him from using Libyan government assets located in the United States to fund that brutality. Within hours, might have even been minutes, David, TFI made sure that more than 30 billion in Libyan assets were beyond Gaddafi's reach. Finally, consider Burma. Only a few years ago, that nation was an intractable dictatorship hostile to the United States. But thanks to the extraordinary courage of people in that country, and thanks to Treasury's efforts to design, build, and maintain sanctions against the ruling junta, we have seen political reforms open in a once-closed society. We have seen a movement away from partnership with North Korea in favor of engagement with America and our allies, such that our Secretary of Commerce will be traveling there later this week. And today, we're supporting this reform through aid and investment, but also through, as I've just said, commercial ties. U.S. companies investing in Burma now are now required to publicly report on their activities as a condition of a Treasury license, because transparency is key to Burma's economic growth and to ensure that it won't end up consolidating power and strangling democratic progress. And by maintaining the specially designated nationals list of individuals and entities in Burma, still subject to sanctions, TFI provides a powerful incentive to those who would resist democracy, do the right thing, and you can get off the list. And if Burma succeeds in its political and economic reform, America will have a critical new partner in a vital region at a vital time. Examples like this illustrate just how far the United States has come in terms of the financial tools we use worldwide. Instead of full-fledged trade embargoes, we can now apply targeted financial sanctions on selected individuals and entities. Instead of imposing drastic economic costs on entire people, we can selectively deny a regime the financing and tools it uses to repress its citizens. And we can use and harness to our national security benefit the power of reputational harm that international businesses are eager to avoid by associating themselves with targeted regimes. But the source of our strength abroad has always been our prosperity here at home. And the tools that this office has developed allow us to better protect our own financial system from money laundering, corruption, and other illicit activity. That doesn't just protect our families and businesses from economic malfeasance. It defends the very credibility of our financial system, the bedrock of the global financial system. So really, what the men and women of TFI do every day goes far beyond their job descriptions. TFI combines the processing power of financial analysts with a guile and determination of a seasoned investigator and a soft touch, maybe David softest of all, of a diplomat. They're kind of like IBM, CSI, and James Bond all rolled into one. Or a financial Batman. As a result, the economic power we exert worldwide has become much more targeted and effective with fewer costs to our country, less collateral damage to innocent people, and much stronger results for us and for our national interest. Like superheroes generally, they bring light to dark spots where bad guys ply their trade. And as with superheroes generally, I would not bet against them. TFI has revolutionized our approach, and looking ahead, its importance will continue to grow. The work of detecting, disrupting, and dismantling the financial infrastructure of terrorist organizations is as vital today as it has ever been. And every day there are more players to engage, domestic and international businesses, foreign regulators and ministries, international organizations. When it comes to stopping terrorism, proliferation, transnational crime like trafficking, financial tools alone won't do the job, but we won't succeed without them. One final thought. We were reminded by the President last week that the world is a very, very messy place, and indeed there's no end to history. And when this group reconvenes for TFI at 20, we will again marvel at how good work and creative thinking by TFI kept us steps ahead of the messy world and the dark corners that hide bad actors. Then as now, we'll work to strengthen our own economy while bringing economic pressure to bear on bad actors everywhere, because as I've said, a strong United States is the foundation for a strong and stable world. So let me close by saying again how grateful the President is for the work of the dedicated men and women of TFI. They've been incredibly valuable to this administration and to this country. I'm proud to call them colleagues. I'm honored to have heard David's comments earlier, and I know that the next 10 years will continue to build on this amazing success. So, David, thank you very much. Okay, well, after those great remarks from Chief of Staff McDonough, we're going to go to our third panel, which is Neil Wollin, Ruben Jeffery and Juan Zarate, where I think they are running back to get mic'd up, so we'll have about a one-minute delay.
