If there is a ripe dispute in front of the court, court could tell the executive branch whether what they're doing is lawful or not. Could or should. I guess it's their proper role. I guess you could use the word should there, too. Yeah. Judge, I want to ask you about some news of the day. (15:54–16:05)
