00:00Now, you all are amazing.
00:14You know, fighting fascism takes 24-7 and it comes together, resistance, it grows hard
00:19and inspires again.
00:21This moment right now that we will not stand still and be paralyzed with the amount of
00:27fear and anxiety that many of you have.
00:29You're showing up, you're fighting back, and you're saying to the person that you elected
00:33or was elected for your community, again, you should show up.
00:38You have questions that have neat answers.
00:41And so I'm really proud.
00:43When I met Katrina, I totally, we were just in, you know, I saw that there was a protest
00:48in front of Congressman John Jay's district office, and I just showed up.
00:53I didn't tell everybody I was coming because I needed to do it too.
00:55Because there's three or four Republicans that we need.
00:59Only three or four.
01:00And if Michigan can do something, we can organize our backyard and deliver at least one.
01:04And that could be Congressman John Jayne.
01:06So thank you all for ensuring an incredible work.
