You know, it was actually designed to stop.
If you're wondering where did this law having to do with protecting church services come from, you know what it was actually designed to do for churches, Buck?
It was designed to stop white supremacists.
This is their thesis when they passed it.
It was designed to stop white supremacists, they said, from interrupting black churches.
So, oh, you've got to be careful sometimes with the laws that you put on the books because the precedent that is applied for them can shift as the world changes.
Because Democrats today, Buck, we all know, would never pass a law that prohibited protests from taking place in churches.
In fact, they would probably pass a law saying we need more protests inside of churches if you had to ask them to make a choice now.
But this law is on the books.
And Attorney General Pam Bondi traveled to Minneapolis.
And this is what we somewhat talked about yesterday.
It's one thing to say arrest people, but you have to tangibly connect the arrest to a crime.
And the work that has been done here, I think it's kind of an open and shut case.
pretty clearly demonstrates that these individuals broke the law.
And now we'll see whether a jury is willing to convict them in Minneapolis, which I think is an entirely different process.
But these warrants, these arrests were signed off on probable cause based on the evidence.
And it's pretty significant, I think, that we've already seen a result.
I think Pam Bondi deserves credit.
I think the Minnesota lawyers deserve credit and the Department of Justice overall.
No, I think that's really important because if you're in a state like you are, Florida, or a state like I am, Tennessee, by and large, there is not this obstruction constantly that is occurring of ICE's ability to do their jobs.
