For the Agents, He highlighted the importance of maintaining a work-life balance and avoiding stress, which can be exacerbated by political tensions.

He shared his experiences with the platform's features, including the use of hashtags and picture editing.  Art covered the situation of open borders and the facilitation of illegal migration. He shared his experience of visiting with Congressman Andy Biggs, a camp near Sasabe where he found a tent with information in multiple languages, including English, Spanish, Portuguese, Korean, and Arabic, advising migrants on the times when agents would patrol the area.
