00:00New York City Mayor Lester Armandani put out a video recently telling immigrants in New York City they have the right to stand up to ICE.
00:07Are you concerned this will inspire New York City residents to resist ICE operations, and what will the Trump administration do if this happens?
00:13The Trump administration is definitely concerned about the rise in violence and attacks and physical threats that we have seen against our brave men and women who wear the ICE uniform.
00:24Again, these are agents who are just simply doing their jobs.
00:27They are enforcing our nation's immigration laws, and we've seen more than a 1,000% increase in violent attacks on them and their families.
00:35They've been doxxed. They've been harassed. Many of them have been physically assaulted and attacked, so we condemn that wholeheartedly.
00:43I know the administration has done a lot to protect our ICE agents, and the president stands firmly behind them in conducting these enforcement operations.
00:50And there's a lot of talk from Democrat politicians in New York, but the Trump administration will continue to do our jobs in every state, and that's to remove illegal aliens and public safety threats from American communities.
01:03Secretary Levin.
01:04Secretary Levin.
01:05Secretary Levin. Sure.
01:06So, I'll go to the gentleman who's very eager, and then to you.
01:11Awesome. Thank you so much. Obviously, Jasmine Crockett, who the president has openly criticized, just entered Texas' Senate race.
01:15I asked Mike Johnson, who said that Texas largely supports the president.
01:20Crockett, on the other hand, says that Trump is an example of extremism.
01:23She says that her support is a referendum on Trump.
01:29I'm curious to get your thoughts on this.
01:30Has Trump made any statements since she's announced her candidacy?
01:35Not to my knowledge, as you know from the White House podium.
01:38As a government employee, I'm not privy to comment on future elections, but I do think the president has made his thoughts on Ms. Crockett quite clear,
01:46and I do believe he thinks she is wholly unqualified for the office that she is seeking.
