And I'm just simply suggesting to you, and I, I, I find it hard to believe that you don't, wouldn't agree with me on this point, that, that this is no way to run the federal government, that essentially We should allow the administration to unilaterally dismantle different agencies, mass closures, mass purges, and then leave it to Republican members of Congress to ultimately call in and ask for a favor, ask for a waiver and, and hopefully pull it off. I made my case. Well, in any event, I, if that is the new way in which the federal government will operate, nothing I fear for the precedent. (05:26–05:44)
