00:00Taking pictures of a situation, that's the First Amendment right.
00:04To impede a federal officer from doing their job?
00:06No, if you impede, you take them in, but if they're driving by.
00:08To assault my officers?
00:08One final question, my ninth second, sir.
00:11Make an accusation that aren't approved.
00:12Are you keeping a database of American citizens?
00:16Are we keeping a database of American citizens?
00:19Yes, sir. A lot of your ICE agents out there have said we are keeping a database of, no.
00:24Then how do you get a passport if you don't have a database of American citizens?
00:27How can you keep a database of American citizens, sir? Why?
00:31President Trump got elected, promised to deport the worst of the worst.
00:37I'm from California, a sanctuary state, from Orange County, who follows the laws of a sanctuary state.
00:47So picture here, we do have a lot of exceptions, meaning we do call ICE when we have the worst
00:53of
00:53the worst. We call you and we're about to release them. I'm going to show you also statistics from
00:59Sheriff Don Barnes, who Mr. Troy Edgar knows very well. In 2025, we called ICE 323 times, 52 times,
01:11didn't show up to pick up the worst of the worst. I showed these statistics through your predecessor,
01:17and today you're doing better. Only six were not picked up. But that's six, the worst of the worst,
01:24that you still haven't picked up. Manpower, it's an issue, yeah. But right now you're focusing on 70%
01:31of the people you're picking up don't have a criminal record. So I'd advise you, let those folks that are
01:39actually working and paying taxes continue to work and focus on the worst of the worst.
01:46If you want to help me, Mr. Secretary, keep Main Street safe, I'm going to ask you to do me
01:51a favor.
01:52I need your help. DACA recipients. Those folks that are brought here to this country,
01:59little boys, little girls, I have two of them that are police officers.
02:06Their DACA permits expired. They had to be dismissed by local police agencies.
02:13I wrote you this letter, sir, asking me to please help me renew those DACA permits. I think you're
02:20working on one, but there's a whole lot more folks out there that need to have the DACA renewals
02:26renewed in a timely basis. Can I ask you to please help me with that? I wrote you this letter.
02:32Can we
02:32work on this? Absolutely. We'd love to help with this. But as you know, Congressman, the fastest way to
02:39actually fix this DACA issue is for Congress to actually pass legislation to fix it.
02:43With all the respect, sir, you cut USCIS. This is a fee-based program.
02:49All you have to do is the fees that are paid go to DACA renewals. Let's work on that.
02:55I'll work with you on it, but it has to be on the case.
02:57And even the President Trump, I believe, supports this. So let's work on this.
03:00Congressman, I will work on it, but I will still go back. The fastest way to fix
03:04this problem is for Congress to pass something on this. How long have you been in Congress and
03:10how long have I been? I was in Congress. This is an issue the last time we did immigration reform,
03:15Ronald Reagan was president. But DACA, we can do this like overnight. Help me get these renewals of
03:23these permits. If I can move to the next issue, sir, it's very important. Congressman, you said something that's not
03:28accurate. I cannot fix this unilaterally by myself. I have limitations. Just help me renew these permits
03:35on a timely basis. We are going through those permits just like we look at every other visa
03:41application. There's a lot of... These are police officers on Main Street, sir.
03:46Not all of them are. Help me keep Main Street. Not all of them are. These two are, sir.
03:51There's a whole lot more, sir. That's what I'm saying. The case by case one's fine. We can go through
03:54it.
03:54As a whole, I'm not going to wave a magic wand and just fix them all because we're...
03:58You have that magic wand. That's your job, sir. The vote is Congress and they can fix this issue
04:02by legislation and you guys can choose what you want me to enforce in that. You're asking me to do
04:07a job that Congress isn't willing to do. Let me talk about American citizens, sir. I'm going to ask
04:11you the same question I asked your predecessor. Am I going to have to tell my children at home to
04:17carry
04:17an American passport with them when they're out in the street? Congressman, I'm from Indian
04:24country. I'm from Indian country and we got a lot of brown people around there too. I'm cherishing...
04:28No, no, no. I'm not talking about... We're not doing that. No, but it is. It's the same thing that
04:31you're saying that.
04:31Rene Good and Alex Petty, we're not brown. Oh my goodness. Okay? We have American citizens being
04:37arrested right now by ICE, American citizens that are actually being deported, American citizens getting
04:43roughed up. I see this every day, sir. Look, your officers have a badge, they have a gun, and they
04:50have federal
04:51power, sir. Yeah. They have to respect Americans. Forget about undocumented. Let's talk American
04:58citizens. Let's talk about that. What can we do to protect the rights of American citizens? How can
05:03we protect... We can protect the rights of American citizens all day long. They don't have the right
05:07to assault my officers. They are not... If you're driving by taking pictures of a situation,
05:12that's their First Amendment right. To impede a federal officer from doing their job? No. If you impede,
05:17you take them in, but if they're driving by... To assault my officers... One final question,
05:20my nine seconds, sir. Make an accusation that aren't true.
05:22Are you keeping a database of American citizens?
05:27Are we keeping a database of American citizens? Yes, sir. A lot of your ICE agents out there have
05:31said we are keeping a database of... Well, sir, that's already out there. No.
05:35Then how do you get a passport if you don't have a database of American citizens? How can you keep
05:38a database of American citizens, sir? Why?
