legal, you know, redresses of our government. And we wanted State legislatures, particularly, to call for special sessions. So that's why we were looking for action from the people's houses.
Q Got it. And so you said, speaking, like, lockdown. I'm assuming that's COVID lockdown.
A Yes, sir.
Q Is one of those State capitol protests you're talking about like the one on August 25th where protestors pushed their way past police forces in the Idaho statehouse? Are you familiar with that?
A I'm not at all familiar. This is first time I'm hearing of that.
Q And you aren't familiar with the December 21st protest in the Oregon State Capitol during a special session where protestors went inside the capitol?
A I'm very familiar with that one because I publicly denounced it. I publicly denounced it on Twitter. It was widely reported. This committee should, you know, be aware of that. I think we've even provided documentation to this sort or a statement to this sort. And if not, we can provide a list of that.
But I was totally opposed to what happened in Oregon. I remember watching that on Twitter. Came out very early. And I said that those people are not strategic. They're not thinking about the safety of people. And it was just—it was inappropriate. It wasn't a Stop the Steal event. So—
Q Okay.
A It wasn't a Stop the Steal event. I want to go on the record with that.
Q And I'm going to defer to after I ask just the first question. But for, like, this November rally at the State Capitol, how did you raise the funds to throw this rally? How does Stop the Steal do it?
