😂 I see a pirate appearing on the channel soon! That would be awesome! You need to have a big mug too when *that word* is said on the channel. Thanks for the chuckle

Unfortunately, as you have stated previously, law of the seas seems to be breaking down. China in the South China Sea attacking coast guard boats, Israel grabbing protesters in international waters, the Houthi, Somalia’s, US and Venezuela and the list goes on.

I heard you a day or two ago talking about submitting an application for a position in the US Federal Government, in my opinion, 1) You would absolutely make a great candidate for that job! 2) Your zero bias abilities to tell the entire story will result in an extremely short tenure in that position! Thank YOU, Sal for being a neutral, honest news source!
