“… men and women in uniform being used in unprecedented ways, I think abused under the circumstances. And I just want to paint the picture of those circumstances, because you're right. We had 14 of our national Guard men and women that were sent originally to Oregon against, again, our objections. They'd already been federalized by the Trump administration, sent to do training up in Oregon, and then a judge, not dissimilarly issued TRO in favor of Governor Kotak in your work, and then were sent those 14 to Chicago.” (06:58–07:06)
