We don't believe we have to go to Congress.
We believe Congress has already given us the authority to do what we're doing.
Many presidents have done a tremendous amount of work to the White House as they should, and Congress has authorized them to do so.
And so we have a a fundamental disagreement with those two judges, as we have told the the Supreme Court earlier this week.
And and we'll see the Supreme Court is is is has briefing established that'll last uh you know over the next week or two and and and we'll go from there.
President Trump has said for many months now, almost a year, that he has the authority to do this.
And he said that because he absolutely does have the authority to do this.
And
Uh then
Well, what that's there's a big difference between saying we will be we will always do our job and and investigate any case and act independently of the White House.
No, I'm not gonna pledge that.
And no attorney general should ever pledge that.
The president, I mean if I were to pledge I will be independent of the White House, what that means is that if President Trump says I want the Department of Justice to go after every violent criminal in this country, which is what he has said.
What you're saying to me is I just say, no, sir, not gonna do it.
So
When so hold on.
Will I take um the president of the United States's view on something into consideration?
Yes, of course, and I hope every attorney general in history would not answer that question differently.
Oh wa just just let's play that out.
The pr ma the president of the United States, the elected president of the United States, says something to me.
