Governor Gavin Newsom

And they were heroes.

I mean, the biggest problem we had, we had thousands of National Guard that were there protecting the residents of Los Angeles.

And the biggest problem they had were the number of people coming up to get selfies with them, giving them food and water, and they were overwhelmed.

And these are our neighbors.

These are nurses and doctors.

These are firefighters and law enforcement officers that are quite literally being taken now off the street and been asked to mask up.

And I think it's so important that we underscore what you just said, JB, that we're not at war with them.

Quite the contrary.

And that's what's so abusive about what the president of the United States has done.

But I want to just say this in closing.

I want to thank you both for what you've done.

The moral clarity

to which you both have met this moment, how effectively you've communicated, how effectively you've galvanized the public to understand what's at stake.

Thank you for the partnership in terms of the compare and contrast and the sharing of information with our legal teams.

um and with our staff i it it distills for me a sense of well-being um you know there's an old adage you want to go fast go alone you want to go far go together and this is a time for us to partner and it's a time for us uh to i think uh really raise the the red flag of alarm about what's really going on in this country and what we're up against

Well, appreciate it.

It's a rare opportunity for us to get together in this public manner.

I think it's really important.

Again, grateful for both of you taking the time, particularly with the preciousness that is time at this moment.

Thank you, guys.
