So not only is there chaos inside Delaney Hall, but now I come out and emerge outside and see that there's a standoff between ICE agents.
They have a row of ICE agents that are armed.
They have an armored vehicle.
And they're just in a standoff with the protesters there.
I mean, look, my immediate concern was like, this cannot become Minnesota.
We saw what happened to Rene Good and Alex Preti.
I was terrified that we're going to see that type of violence and potentially bloodshed in the streets.
So I was trying to figure out, is there any way to be able to off-ramp this?
Is there any way we can be able to lower the temperature?
And I was talking to the head of ICE outside there, and at some point he just told me, like, look, we're going to just drive these vehicles, our vehicles out.
And I looked across the field there, and I said, like, you cannot just simply plow your vehicles through a crowd of civilians.
Like, you have to try to figure out, you know, how we can try to do this without the violence.
And look, I was trying to see if there's any arrangement, but again, it shouldn't be just on me.
When it comes to de-escalation, what role are their officers supposed to play?
And that's what I think was so alarming, John, is like...
There was just, at some point, just a feeling of inevitable violence.
And it was just so jarring to me.
The ease with which ICE just went out and drove their vehicles literally through a crowd, just not even putting effort to try to avoid that circumstance.
it shouldn't be that easy to have violence in the streets of America.
Like, it shouldn't be that easy for federal agents that are supposed to swear the same oath that I swear about protecting and defending the Constitution and supporting the American people to find themselves in a circumstance.
