We had one here in Maine yesterday where farmers, it takes a lot to piss off a farmer, but the farmers were pretty angry because of what this administration has done to the agriculture programs. So the people have a role, but here's the deal. The ultimate power of the people is in elections. And we don't have an election for 19 months. And I don't think we have 19 months.

We could be past a point of no return. And that's why I come back to the Congress. It's our responsibility. Here's really something interesting. We're back to semantics. To defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic,

The president just last night is really mad that people that are in this country under parole by the last administration have to have due process before you can kick them out. He was furious.

It's used in the Constitution, but they use person. Which means any person who's here is entitled to due process rights. And people say, well, those are immigrants to hell with them. I'm reminded of that famous quote from pre-Holocaust. First they came for the Jews and I didn't worry because I wasn't a Jew. And then they came for gay people and I didn't care because I wasn't gay.

Well, I'll tell you what, when I ran for reelection last year, I never knew what I was getting into. I didn't anticipate this. I mean, I was a senator through four years of the first Trump administration, but this is way different. He doesn't seem to have anybody around him who will tell him no or will tell him, you know, this isn't really the best thing to do.
