I think these guys are used to pounding their chests.

Yeah, I mean, you know, usually, usually around midterms, the majority party, you know, I think that they know they're about to get clocked.

you know, that's, that's just the way that things were.

Let's just have cycles work.

I think that, I think that they, I think that Republicans, especially Republicans who, who aren't ready for reelection are, they're a little, they're able to be a little bit more candid and they're saying, look, You guys are going to get crushed.

And I think it's because – this is kind of the funny thing to me is that Trump in 2018 was – a lot of people didn't like Trump in 2018 and they lost House of Representatives.

But a lot of people still voted for Republicans.

God, I hate talking about

Talk with us about, it seems like her messaging on ICE has been very clear and she has been able to win over a lot of people who never would say the words, you know, abolish ICE, you know, but she's been a pretty effective messenger on that issue, it seems like.

Yeah, I mean, that's literally just me hanging around on the steps of the Capitol and just saying, hey, I'm going to talk to Representative Ocasio-Cortez.

The funny thing about that was that earlier in the day, I had run into Senator Collins, who, of course, is the chairman of the Appropriations Committee, which again means she writes the budget.

And the thing that I asked, I was like, what do you make of the fact at that time the administration was going to pause ICE operations? uh doing these kind of vehicle stops like that that killed uh mr sagalo arajo in houston and that killed uh mr john sebastian guerrero in Biddeford, Maine.

And she says, well, you know, I'm glad that they paused it.

And then she says, I was the one who got them more body cameras and more training and more all those things.

And I think that Senator Collins recognizes that this is a problem, that this is something that a lot of people, rightly or wrongly, tie to her because she is a Republican in the Trump administration.

Talk to us about what we can expect this fall.
