They're afraid that this decentralization is going to somehow send finance back to the... I suppose they're also concerned that consumers, maybe who are not super sophisticated or new to it, might lose their money.
I don't know. Time will tell about that. He seems to make some pretty good decisions. They've done well for him.
We do.
Ding dong, the witch is dead. Now we're going to be moving forward with a new SEC.
So YOLO? What's that? YOLO? YOLO.
Just go for it. My staff gives me a hard time because I don't know all those cute quips.
I have no problem. Did you see the meme that said Barron apparently had his dad's phone last night and made a billion dollars?
In his mandate. Yeah.
I think he's the only one that's left. They knock you down and then they build you up.
I think we should. So New York Times, of all outlets, had a poll that said it's like 80% believe that criminals, terrorists, people who have committed bad offenses should be the hell out of here. Yeah, easy one to have consensus on, yeah. No, but then it starts to drop down, which is the next one is, oh, I forget what the second one is.
55% according to a New York Times poll.
You don't fix your labor problem with illegal labor. immigration. You fix it by fixing your immigration system and making sure that it's working the way it's supposed to. By the way, I come from the state of Minnesota. The two primary drivers of our state's private economy are manufacturing an ag.
I mean, I've got huge operations of families that have bound together as a co-op that they literally have to bring in foreign workers and they built a village housing, they have teachers, but there's the solution. This idea, and I come from Minnesota, which is why you made the hair on the back of my neck stand up.
The argument is, oh, illegals, people who are here illegally and their advocates are bracing for Trump's arrival. And then they write an article that says, if they remove all these people, our economy is going to tank. Stop it. You've got laws for a reason. You've got to enforce the laws that are on the books and if they don't work.
This is why we passed the strongest border bill in 20 years with 222 members in the last Congress, which Chuck Schumer never looked at. They wanted to say that Trump killed the bipartisan bill. You realize the House bill did five things. Finish the wall, reform the parole process, reform asylum, end catch and release, and restore remain in Mexico. Those were the five pillars.
That so-called bipartisan bill actually codified catch and release. Said that if you don't have emergency authority on the border until you have 5,000 plus one coming across a day.
I don't think you should be here if you're illegal. So all $15 million got to go in year one. I don't think you should be here if you're illegal. Now, you're painting with a pretty broad brush. We don't know what specific situations.
Again, I think the goal is to make sure- How would it be possible- J.D.
It's not all going to happen on day one, but yeah, it's going to be- Well, I'm trying to interpret that, but you're not being straight, so- Well, actually, I resent that. I am being straight.
And the problem is you're using terms like dragged them out. No, I mean, they're going to start with the worst of the worst in JD's answer. You start with those because you know that this is going to have an emotional aspect to it. And guess what? If you start doing it the way you're supposed to do it, I'm going to suggest to you that a lot of them are going to leave voluntarily.
