Maria Bartiromo : Thank you. Well, congratulations on this big deal. You've got to explain this to me. I don't understand why a technology company is merging with a nuclear fusion company.

Devin Nunes : Well, technology is all about energy, Maria. You talk about it every day on your show. It's the biggest vulnerability we have right now in this country. As you know, Truth Social was first started
      because not because the President needed a new company, but because people were being banned by the internet. We built the technology to solve that problem and save free speech.  Now we've been looking at, what's the biggest issue at the highest
      level? What do we have to solve for? We have all these data centers coming in. We have AI coming in. And right at the center of that, what all of that needs to operate is energy. We need this country to be energy independent. We need to bring prices
      down, and if we want to bring industry back and be the capital and the hub for data centers, we're going to have to get nuclear fusion to work. Now, look, for 20 years, we bought solar panels and windmills from China. Those policies failed. What the
      Trump administration is trying to do is actually do real energy, whether it's oil, gas, all the above but including nuclear. And what we've been out doing is we've looked, we've scoured the world, and the globe, to find the best scientists, the top
      people, the best company. And we want to do nuclear fusion, because nuclear fusion, although it was discovered some 75 years ago, nuclear fusion is really the holy grail. The science is there, and the good thing about the company that we're merging
      with is these have the very best people we have in America. 1,600 patents, 400 scientists, a bunch of award-winning scientists and they are ready to build. They've been working on this project for 25 years with private funding. The Chuck Schwab
      family was one of the original investors, other investors like Google and others have put money into this company. They were looking to go public, and what we did is we said, look, we're technology, you're a technology company. Let's build the
      synergies together and let's go out and build the world's first nuclear fusion project. And this project, Maria, is ready
