I mean Trump had a healthy majority.

I think he was plus 10 on immigration policy when he took office.

I think he's at like minus 15, minus 20 now, right?

These aren't sustainable numbers.

They're going to continue to do it for as long as they can get away with it.

But –

I think it's encouraging and inspiring the way people are making their voices heard, the way they're doing it even after they've been explicitly threatened.

They're still out there tracking ICE agents.

They're still out there recording them on their cell phones.

And to me, that is far – I take such heart in that after watching all these lead institutions crumble in front of Trump.

I would just encourage people to continue speaking out for your neighbors, for the people around you, for your communities, and keep recording.

Very early on when they started sending troops into Los Angeles and D.C.,

I was so heartened because you would see these videos of these immigration officers roughing someone up, and obviously that's very disturbing.

But you'd see four, five, six people in the video that was uploaded also recording video on their phones.

And that is, as you said, I think a lot more powerful than weapons at this point because that's the kind of accountability.

That's the only thing that's going to keep them accountable.

Thank you so much.

Thanks.
