Because they're taking tens of thousands of people at a time and you can't possibly wait for, you know, judges to get through all of that.

So that along with, you know, people losing jobs, I'm constantly in contact with people.

I raise money and I send them money for rent is a big one.

I think, yeah.

And this isn't to like demean those efforts, but a lot of people jump into like, how can I get groceries?

How can I get all of this stuff to these people?

And that's awesome.

They need food, but they're also at risk of losing their homes because they can't pay their rent.

And so it's like, I have, you know, we have someone we know who has, he's a maintenance tech and he was working three jobs.

He's here legally.

He's been working three jobs.

We've always said like Jorge is the hardest worker we know.

It is insane.

And he's here legally.

He has lost two of his other jobs because the restaurant he worked at shut down because it is primarily Latinos and serving Latinos.

And the other job of like nighttime cleaning, they cut, you know, for whatever reason.

So I think that's the stuff that all of it pisses me off.

But it's more the excuse of like, well, if they had done it legally and you're like, OK, but these people who are brown, who did it legally, as you say, are still facing these repercussions.

So.

You know, that's the stuff that I see that just makes me even angrier is the blatant racism that they just can't see.
