So. Oh, I didn't even. So like the governor of any state has control of their National Guard, but D.C. has its own National Guard, right? Correct. And they don't have a governor. So those are the president's National Guard? Correct. Oh, that's not great.

That's I mean, that's a symbolic moment, right? Just like pouring the asphalt over the words Black Lives Matter.

Yeah. I guess it's hard, right? Because like painting Black Lives Matter on the sidewalk did nothing for black people, right? Like, did that help you? Did that materially improve your life?
