00:00Will the gentleman yield for a question? I will. I just want to make sure I understand what this
00:06bill is talking about. Is it true that the Department of Homeland Security is charged
00:12with keeping our homeland safe? Yes. And so would we want people convicted of invading the most
00:25sacred monument in our homeland to be then responsible for keeping our homeland safe?
00:34Is that what this bill prevents? That's what this bill prevents, Mr. Goldman. All right. Thank you.
00:38I yield back. I will yield. Yes. Mr. Moskowitz. I just want to even make it a little clearer. Sure. I just
00:48want some imagery, I think, because my colleagues across the aisle don't seem to be engaged. So this
00:54bill would prevent the J6 shaman, right? The guy who wore that. That's right. With the big headdress.
01:02Is that what you mean? Yeah. This would prevent like Secretary Noem from hiring him in homeland.
01:08That's right. And before you say like, oh, Jared, don't be ridiculous. Like she would never. I mean,
01:13she shot a puppy in the face. I mean, you know, the shaman seems like fair game. Agreed. Okay. This
01:20bill would prevent that. Yes. Okay.
