Are you, do you feel safe from any kind of further interference by this, by ICE agents? I want to remind everybody that happened in my state first. In June of last year, he federalized 4,000 National Guard and sent 700 active duty Marines. Not overseas, but to the second largest city in the United States of America in Los Angeles. Now he has a private police force that appears to have taken the oath of office to Trump, not the Constitution of the United States. (06:16–06:30)
