[0:00] the full answers to those questions. But
[0:02] this is it's the unknowns here that just
[0:05] tell you you couldn't have Jensen just
[0:07] continuing to lead the organization
[0:09] while this is happening and while
[0:10] there's other allegations of of of of
[0:13] him cheating on his wife with an Nvidia
[0:16] employee. This was just stacking up. And
[0:18] frankly, you know, there's more than

[1:02] week. And um my understanding is he he
[1:05] has basically declined and and tried to
[1:07] have his uh senior council go instead.
[1:09] Uh that is very unlikely to fly post uh
[1:12] the the blue wave last week.
