The A.C.L.U. v. Trump 2.0

You know, if we run the gauntlet and we file all the cases that we need to right now and then don't have the ability to file them in years two, three, and four, we'll do the country no good.

No, they're just kind of, everyone's very pragmatic, very focused on what the moment requires of us. And it might take us five years or 10 years But we will get there. And I think if we stay on it like water on stone, and I run an organization— Do we have five years or ten years?
