All Democrats involved. Sir, it's - The Press. You said yesterday you urged the DOJ to sue Alaska. What do you say to those concerned about the independence of the Justice Department? Well, all I do is I say this. You have a man named Dan Sullivan, highly respected senator running. They find a man named Dan Sullivan or Daniel Sullivan, and they put him up as a matter of confusion. He got two and a half or three points in the primary, and he's going to get possibly that now. And I looked at it, and there's very few people who will be able to differentiate. So they have no idea what they're doing. It is a totally corrupt weaponization situation, and they shouldn't be allowed to do it. So I recommended it to the DOJ. They looked at it, they agreed with me, and they've gone to court. Let's see what happens. But that's pure corruption. And the Daniel Sullivan that they have up was never a participant in any elections, never even voted before. It's a disgrace.
