Okay, we're moving.
Thanks.
I mean, the bottom line from the Democratic proposals is to essentially stop Trump from being able to go and deport illegal aliens.
So right now, you can go and get a warrant from an immigration judge or an administrative warrant.
What they want to do is have it so that federal district court judges and magistrates would handle these things.
That makes the process much more complicated.
But plus, you're talking about 1,100 federal district court judges and magistrates in the country.
If they were to deport people at the same rate that they did this last year, and they're ramping it up, so hopefully it would have been more, you're talking about 500 warrants that each judge would have to go and handle.
Talking about weeks of work on their part for people, many of them already have a heavy schedule.
But the problem also is about 60% of the district court judges in the country are Democrats.
I mean, surely you know as well as anybody
how a lot of these Democratic district court judges have done whatever they can in order to try to stop deportations by the Trump administration.
And so, you know, if you have a large portion of these judges who are refusing to sign warrants for political reasons,
I guess you can go and appeal to an appeals court, but you're talking about a long, drawn-out process that's going to encompass a lot of the court system.
And it's going to make it difficult or impossible for them to go and deport a lot of these people.
Exactly.
Look, this system that we have right now in terms of immigration judges handling the warrants, that was something that's happened under the Biden administration.
It's happened under the Obama administration.
It happened under the Clinton administration.
They had no problem with any of those things, despite millions of people being deported during some of those administrations, with going and having immigration judges and administrative warrants handling the process that was there.
