Again, I'll defer to you and the lawyers about the nuances of that, but they're using a very interesting tactic saying that they violated Iowa's consumer statute, which prevents misinformation about a product. Now, again, it's a very narrow reading from my layperson standpoint, but-

Look, I think what it does, when that poll came out, first of all, the Iowa poll has had a storied history of problems. The bottom line is that that didn't pass the smell test, and nobody bought that, both in terms of what other public polls at the time said and in terms of what the data was suggesting where Iowa's electorate was. So it didn't make sense.

And so the question is, why did they go through with it? What did the crosstab show? How did they sample the electorate? Did they know in advance? And this is where the discovery phase comes in. Are there emails that show that they knew that there might be some problems with how they created the sample that that was based off of?

I don't know, but my guess is that's why you go through this to the discovery phase. So you can say, gosh, this doesn't add up. And them saying, well, who cares? Go ahead with it anyway. Right.

Like I said, you're the lawyer on this. If they were to get to discovery in the Des Moines Register Seltzer case, and they found someone there emailing Ann and saying, gosh, this doesn't really comport with what recent information suggests, You know, or here's a sample that we don't think if if you saw that exchange, I guess my question to you as a lawyer would be, isn't that the point?

If they can show that they knew there were flaws and they went ahead with it now, that's a big if. But if you could show that they were flaws and they knew about them, wouldn't that give you merit to go forward?

Do you know how mind-blowing this is, by the way? Just stop and think about this. Donald Trump, a Republican, has appointed a Kennedy who was primarying Biden just, what, 12 months ago for the Democratic nomination, has been put into the cabinet where he will get, by and large, Republican votes. This is mind-blowing if you think about where we are in terms of which party is more inclusive.
