As a sheriff, you know, of Riverside County, give us some of the things that you run into.

Whether it's what happened during election, you know, the 600-something thousand votes, whether it's the types of crime you've seen, whether it's the types of people that are crossing a border that makes it all the way up to where you're at. Maybe give us the conditions of what it's like in California, specifically with Riverside County. At Riverside County, we're a big county, two and a half million people. We're not a border county, but from a law enforcement and from a federal government perspective,
