Or is this something states and school boards and sports bigs should decide on their own? By the way, there was a very telling moment in that exchange, a very crucial telling moment where at one point he said, we are the law. Well, we are the federal law. He started to say, I am the law.

I am the law. I hate to say this, but he's not the law. Congress makes the laws. And we had a bill about trans athletes, and that's the way this should proceed.

And she ended her comment by saying, see you in court.

which, by the way, they got a temporary restraining order last Friday night from a federal district judge of like a 40-page opinion saying why the president was not correct. So the dispute really wasn't about trans athletes. It was about the president's ability to impose his view of what the law ought to be on a state. And this could happen to any state.

And also part of it, we all know, was sort of personal pique He took umbrage that this governor dared to stand up to him. And then later on, to underline that, he said a week or so ago, if she apologizes, if she gives a heartfelt apology We'll give him all the money.

To me, that tells you this was all about personal, not legal or policy. But in the meantime, Pablo, we're losing money for kids' lunches, for programs that pay farmers to grow food to go to food banks. to support low-income kids in our schools.

24 across the country, it supports local fishing communities and programs along the coastline. We were the only ones that were cut off. You don't want a system where one person can reach out and... take this kind of action. So it was a tell, as I say, when he said, we are the law, because I think that's what he thinks.
