Both of them were detained by ICE in Minnesota.

And one of them is a woman that was depicted in a viral video.

There were some concerns that if too many Democrats skipped, then Trump wouldn't have any dissenters in the crowd.

And of course, the Democrats would not like that.

Thanks for having me.

Hey, Ben, it's great to be here.

Well, Ben, first of all, I was sitting in our seat because we now have a seat in the White House briefing room, which I'm very excited about.

So

I'm sitting there and I hear this reporter at the front of the room from CBS ask Caroline why why people would suggest that the president has been called racist by Democrats.

And Caroline just looked him in the eye and goes, you're joking.

Right.

And a number of reporters in the room started laughing.

And I don't think they were all conservative.

It was just it was a humorous moment because we all know we've all heard.

The president be called racist by and back to some of the reporters who were in the room yesterday.

And so, you know, she she came back at him and our social team I saw did a fantastic job compiling a list of these Democrats who have called the president racist.

I mean, Ben, you and I have heard the president called racist ever since he came down that escalator to run for president in the first place.

It's just one of the most common insults that he's received.

But of course, in this instance, the legacy media would far prefer to suggest that that never happened and to gaslight us about that.

And then I head into this Black History Month event with the president where I couldn't even see him because the attendees were so excited to see the president, to take photos of him, to applaud their friends and their family who were talking to him.
