## Transcript

[ MUSIC ] Now that is some good rock 'n' roll. [ LAUGH ] As if you didn't know. Well, thank you for that, that was pretty awesome. Got it by Voices Introduction. I appreciate that. Let me see. I've got a few things at the top of this, my last briefing from the podium. You know, the President to many of us said that, of the jobs that we have here in the White House, that most of us will never be in a position to do more good for more people than we are in right now. And we should take advantage of it. And that is something that I think we all here take to heart. And, I don't ever expect to be in a position again to be a part of something that has at least the potential to do more good for more people.

And that has been a very special thing, indeed. I love my years as a reporter. But as you better than anyone else understand, reporting, and sometimes sometimes can be an autonomous exercise. It's your story, it's your byline. What was so different about this experience for me is that it was all about a team effort and all about a goal that had nothing to do with any individual, not even the President. And that that's been extraordinary, extraordinarily gratifying. Finally, I just wanna say thank you to all of you here. This has been an extraordinary experience and I have loved every minute of every day, even the many minutes of many days I've spent in this room.

As I think, most of you now understand and believe it's always a pleasure, no matter how hard it can get in here, how hot it can sometimes be, and contentious, it sometimes is.
