Joe Rogan: “I can also see the point of view of the people that say, ‘Yeah, but you don't want militarized people in the streets just roaming around snatching people up, many of which turn out to actually be U.S. citizens'”
Rogan: “I see both perspectives. I see the perspective of the people that say, ‘Hey, there was an illegal program moving people in here to get votes, moving people in here to get congressional seats, and we've got to change that.'”

JOE ROGAN (HOST): I think there's--there's a balance to be achieved, I just don't know how it gets done, because I see both perspectives. I see the perspective of the people that say, ‘Hey, there was an illegal program moving people in here to get votes, moving people in here to get congressional seats, and we've got to change that. We've got to take those people that got in and send them back to where they came from, or do something, because if we don't they're going to keep doing it if they get in office again in 2028 and it's going to accelerate.' And you're going to have to take away some of the damage that's been done to a true democratic system because you've kind of hijacked it -- and they kind of have. And then I can also see the point of view of the people that say, ‘Yeah, but you don't want militarized people in the streets just roaming around snatching people up, many of which turn out to actually be U.S. citizens that just don't have their papers on them. Are we really going to be the the Gestapo? Where's your papers? Is that what we've come to?' So, it's more complicated than I think people want to admit. You know, people want to look at this as a black and white issue. You know, if you're a compassionate person or if you're a pragmatic person and I don't think that's true. I think it's both.
