Look, for me, just to contextualize the way I process this, this future happened here first in June of last year, where we had 4,000 National Guard that were federalized.

We had 700 active duty Marines that were not sent overseas to protect our interests, were sent to seize control of the second largest city in the United States of America, Los Angeles, close to 5,000

federalized troops on the streets of an American city last June.

That mindset was further stretched a few months later when in an effort to organize a construct to respond to what happened in Texas with midterm redistricting, we launched our campaign for Proposition 50 in Little Tokyo

in Los Angeles, the sacred site of where we were busing and interning the Japanese.

A well-known site for anyone down in Southern California.

It was at the, of all places, Democracy Center.

As we were walking in, people were being intimidated by a gentleman by the name of Bovino, Greg Bovino.

Masked men surrounding the building, a poor guy selling strawberries across the street, disappeared, collateral damage, was found a few weeks later.

tried to intimidate folks from assembling, we said that was a preview of things to come.

On election day,

In November, I wake up in the morning, true social, says the election's rigged, DOJ, prosecutors and investigators are there, the expectation that they were going to file a lawsuit, which they have done, as you know, was set, but they also set the tone of the day by sending out Bovino's team, the BORTAC teams, these are the border patrol tactical units, to Dodger Stadium, assembled there,

in order to chill free expression and free speech for diverse communities that were already on edge on election day.

These guys are not screwing around.

So I'm getting that you're not satisfied.

Nothing about what's happening in Minnesota and Minneapolis surprises me at all, quite the contrary.

And for a second, if Tom Homan, who was accused of a $50,000 bribe, where charges disappeared, speaking of disappearing,

Cash, FBI, is the adult in the room.

We are in more trouble than any of you think.

I don't think it's not an option.
