Oh, but actually, if you want to go out and riot, that's fine, because it's more of a public health crisis.
It's a public health emergency.
Yeah.
And I just, it makes me crazy because I feel as if they want to just move on from it as if it never happened or even rewrite it.
And it was actually a huge moment in American history.
I have a lot of thoughts on it.
The distinction that I have drawn right from the beginning of this is between people who have specific criticisms, which is fine, this is a free country, and people who don't believe in the enforcement of law at all and or are trying to block it.
which is, I think, what we saw in Minnesota.
I'm happy to talk to people about what our immigration policy should be or how ICE should behave.
But if you are of the view that ICE is per se illegitimate because all immigration enforcement is illegitimate and you're going to try to kick out ICE from your locality, then we don't have much to talk about because you are repudiating ICE.

This is not purely a Democrat problem of politicians behaving more like activists, preferring to be activists, forgetting that they are lawmakers and they are part of democracy.
machinery and ought to use their influence um within it uh so i i think that distinction has to be drawn um you know rich mentioned these complaints that people are moved around across the country that's a perfect it sounds a bit specific but that's a perfect example
of how silly some of these objections have become.
It might sound to people as if that's somehow sinister.
ICE is a federal organization.
