And to just go at the intricacies of the law a little bit more, like the other cases with the slush fund, with the possible exception of one, the standing argument here is pretty tenuous.
And it might not get them out of the box, but they have made it now, has the administration, about this mootness thing.
So she can just put to the side whether Floyd, the plaintiff and others have standing and say, I want to I've got to figure out whether it's moot.
And if you won't give me anything more than this, I'm going to go forward.
I'm going to order a briefing for a few weeks from now.
And I don't see mootness here, whatever you want to say about Todd Blanch.
And that is just a straightforward legal question.
Now, they are really rattling sabers here, is the DOJ.
And what they're basically saying is, yeah, just try us, Brinkema.
We're going to yank you to the Fourth Circuit.
And they might.
The Fourth Circuit has been not so reliably for Trump, even their sort of conservative folks like J. Harvey Wilkinson.
And really, all she's saying here is it isn't moot.
And if she says, I'm not accepting this to be moot, and they bring an emergency motion to the Fourth Circuit, what are they going to say exactly?
What's the irreparable harm?
And if the status in her case is this ain't moot, to me, that doubles back potentially to the whole political landscape in the Senate and Congress where people said,
we don't like this damn fund, and we don't think it's been put to bed.
We have a federal court saying this isn't moot, and that rehashes the whole political controversy that made them have to back down from the suit in the first place.
So I think because of their obstreperousness, and as you say, caginess, squirreliness, they have bought a battle with another federal judge, kind of like,
as they've done in a few others.
