00:00Not right now. Yeah, back there.
00:13Yeah, my reaction is, again, there's a judicial coup in this country.
00:17The foreigners in this country do not have a right to stay in this country
00:21if they support designated terrorist organizations like Hamas.

00:44This is a plenary authority of the executive branch.

01:10It's what the Constitution empowers him to do.
01:13And this judicial coup by a handful of Marxist judges
01:16to frustrate that effort can only be understood as an attack on democracy.
01:20Thank you, Mr.
