But then there's a procedural part.

And too often, you've got this obsession with like procedure as it's supposed to go in Congress.

And my point is, if you're in the US Senate right now, your job is to put sand in the gears.

That's the job.

I mean, you saw it on the other side with Tommy Tuberville.

holding up all of these appointments because he didn't get what he wants.

I think part of the problem is we're used to losing and we assume that we're the ones who have to play by the rules all the time.

I'm so sorry this is a fight.

In a fight, there's not a script.

In a fight, there is not a business as usual.

They're not pretty things.

If you're serious about fighting,

then you've got to be both out there fighting with words and then fighting with procedure, trying to throw sand in the gears to interrupt and disrupt this Trump administration's insane approach to both war and governance and ICE and all of this.

It's not going along to get along anymore.

If you really do believe that this is an existential threat to our democracy, then you better start acting like it.

I mean, that's exactly the point.

Donald Trump has this one neat trick.

He will blame every problem you have on an immigrant.

You're out of a job, immigrant took your job.

Out of healthcare, immigrant took your healthcare.
