I appreciated that with me, they acted like professionals. I got to imagine their lives are pretty difficult right now.

Oh, yeah. And I want to draw a line under Chris Krebs. I mean, the president issued an executive order saying he should be investigated. So, there's no doubt that the Trump administration is using the investigative power's of the executive branch to target people, to frighten people, to cow people. There's no doubt that that's going on. And that is a real problem.
