'Cause you're going to win. They're afraid. Right, they're afraid. [APPLAUSE, CHEERING] And we'll take their attacks and we'll keep moving because we have great support. Now, on top of the endorsement from Governor Shapiro, Brooks also received the endorsement from the DCCC's Red to Blue Program. Again, that was quite the controversial take, considering there are still a handful of other Democrats in the running. I caught up with two of them, Carol Obando-Derstine and Ryan Crosswell. They said they didn't really care about the DCCC's endorsement in this, even though they felt they were tipping the scales or putting a thumb on the scales in this race. They want to make the case directly to voters and ultimately have the shared goal of getting Mackenzie out of office. Talk to me about what you're hearing from the people who are going to work and who are driving on that street behind you. What are their priorities as they go into that ballot box? Yeah, just to set the scene, yesterday was this huge event, kind of like a large block party down Hamilton Street behind me. It was called Fiesta in Hamilton. It's the largest gathering of Latinos in the area. And that was a part of a huge voting bloc that Donald Trump was able to successfully persuade to support him in 2024. I talked to quite a few voters that asked about whether or not that influence has stayed among their community here. I talked to 100 million Americans, Colombian-Americans, Mexican-Americans, all in this-- [MOTORCYCLE REVVING] Lehigh Valley-- Lehigh County. And they tell me that they believe that this is a different dynamic. They don't like the direction of the company. And this is that they'll be endorsing and backing Democrats come 2026 and 2028. We'll have to wait and see until November to see if they hold true to that promise. Well, somebody is holding true to excellent journalism, despite the revving of engines behind you. Taurean Small, excellent job. Thank you so much. If you were my age, you'd just stand out there with the hose and say, get off my-- you would do that. Thank you so much. Tell them to slow down out there. Taurean Small in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
