Tom, your thoughts on this?

Well, you and I lived in Los Angeles at a time in 1992, which was also a time that the Insurrection Act was under the riots, Rodney King.

And the city was being torn apart.

The police were overwhelmed.

And when the police are overwhelmed, that's when the National Guard comes in.

This is when, look, a hurricane or an earthquake happens and our governors say, hey, we have a disaster area.

I need you to declare me a disaster area so that I can get federal funds.

And by the way, can you please send relief people, troops, supplies, whatever it is?

And so we'll ignore the failure of Hurricane Katrina.

But in Los Angeles, we had Korean shopkeepers that were on top trying to protect their own buildings.

And it was invoked at that time appropriately.

This is exactly when it should be invoked.

And it's interesting that everybody's clinging to the word insurrection in the media because that was a word they clung to on January 6th because they had to make it an insurrection because an insurrection is the operative term that was in the Constitution that they wanted to pin on.

Oh, you've created an insurrection on Trump.

So when you look at this, I think not only is this appropriate, it is not appropriate.

It's urgent.

It's obligatory.

It's not should Trump do it.

It's why is he waiting for any opinion to say this is out of control here and I have to protect the people of the state because it's.

The union.
