00:00I'm not tracking a meeting at this time, but as always, we'll keep you updated.
00:11I did announce the dates of the foreign trip yesterday.
00:12On this morning, can you talk about the motivation behind the significance of President's move to install masks with American flags throughout the White House, out in the United States?
00:22I'm sorry?
00:23Can you talk about the motivation behind as well as the significance of the President's move to install masks with American flags?
00:29Oh, I thought you were referring to the flags we lowered in honor of Pope Francis.
00:34Yeah, look, I mean, the President is a real estate developer at heart, and he's always looking for ways to improve the White House complex, not for him, but for future generations, for future presidents.
00:43He has some fun ideas for this complex, which we've kept you all apprised of, as they have happened and will continue to do.
00:49So you can expect to look up, I think, quite soon and see a very big, beautiful American flag, perhaps on the North Lawn and the South Lawn.
00:57I think it has yet to be decided.
00:58So we'll see you all later.
