1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:05,680 Speaker 1: You're listening to Bloomberg Law with June Grasso from Bloomberg Radio. 2 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:09,080 Speaker 1: President Trump says he'll be placing a sixty day pause 3 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 1: in the issuance of green cards to limit competition for jobs. 4 00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:17,119 Speaker 1: Joining is Leon Fresco, a partnered Hollandon Knight, explain what 5 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 1: his decision would do. So, the core of President Trump's 6 00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: decision is actually quite simple in that it only affects 7 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 1: human beings that are outside of the United States, not 8 00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 1: human beings that are inside of the United States. And 9 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:35,559 Speaker 1: it only affects those human beings insofar as they are 10 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: applying for a green card, not for any other more 11 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:42,879 Speaker 1: temporary viva. And what it is saying is for those 12 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:46,879 Speaker 1: human beings who are applying for green cards, they are 13 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: not elegible to actually obtain their green card for the 14 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: next sixty days or whatever the orders actually issued them. 15 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 1: So how many people would that affect? Because green cards 16 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:04,479 Speaker 1: are also notoriously slow in processing. Sure, well, I would 17 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,680 Speaker 1: say that there's a couple of ways to look at 18 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: It's hard to get an actual number for employment based 19 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 1: green cards. Most of the people who get them, about 20 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,479 Speaker 1: eight percent er so are in the United States already, 21 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: so it wouldn't affect that group. It would affect about 22 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: twenty percent that are not in the United States. But 23 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: even of those, to the extent that that group consists 24 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 1: of healthcare workers, there is some belief, although obviously the 25 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 1: order has not been actually issued yet, it's hard to 26 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:38,399 Speaker 1: read that the healthcare industry's exempt from this, and so 27 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: it wouldn't be a lot of people. Now to the 28 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 1: extent that family green cards are also implicated, then there 29 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: are a lot more family members who are abroad waiting 30 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: for green cards, and so that could be in the 31 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: tens of thousands that are affected. But we need to 32 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: wait and see what the order actually indicates. So the 33 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: clear are you supposed to have a green card before 34 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: you work? And how often is that ignored? Well, so, 35 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 1: there are two types of visas. There's what are known 36 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: as non immigrant visas and immigrant visas, and so a 37 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 1: non immigrant visa is a temporary visa that allows you 38 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: to come into the United States for a specific purpose. 39 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: None of those, apparently, although we have not seen the 40 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: order yet, are effective. So that includes the H one 41 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: B visa, which is for high skilled workers, the L 42 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: visa for people being transferred from their companies, the al 43 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: visas for outstanding Einstein type workers, the p visas for 44 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,640 Speaker 1: athletes and entertainers, none of that is affected. What is 45 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: affected is to the extent that anyone abroad actually wants 46 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 1: to come here and work permanently. That is what's apparently 47 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 1: been affected for the next sixty days. President Stop said 48 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: at a White House preefing on Tuesday, it would be 49 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: wrong and unjust for Americans laid off by the virus 50 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: to be replaced by new immigrant labor flown in from abroad. 51 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: So this is supposedly to take care of that problem, 52 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 1: but from what you say, it doesn't really address that problem. Well, 53 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: it addresses it, but in a very narrow way for 54 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: a very concrete group of people. And so the issue 55 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: is what makes this very complicated is this a large, 56 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: large number of the people who are actually seeking work 57 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: in the United States as foreign nationals are already here. 58 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: They either came as visitors or students or something else, 59 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: and then they're trying to change their status. And what 60 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: happens is that the president of a band authority only 61 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: permits him to ban people if they're trying to enter 62 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: the United States. He doesn't have the power to just 63 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: stop the applications filed by people already lawfully admitted into 64 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 1: the United States for some other purpose. And so that's 65 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: why when his initial tweet was issued, people were very 66 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,839 Speaker 1: skeptical and we're immediately wanting to see the order because 67 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: they knew it couldn't actually shut down the whole immigration system. Moreover, 68 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: the fact that our embassies and consulates are basically closed 69 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: all around the world anyway for the next sixty days 70 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 1: means that his band functionally probably wouldn't have banned too 71 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,799 Speaker 1: many people, because you need to go to the embassies 72 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 1: anyway as your final step of getting a green card 73 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: to do an interview. And none of those folks are 74 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: going to be able to have interviews anyway, because they 75 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,919 Speaker 1: were in countries where things were not open due to 76 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 1: the coronavirus. And so that's why people are maybe a 77 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: little bit skeptical as to the coverage of this executive order. 78 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 1: Let's just say the executive order goes through and it 79 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: is challenged, and by the way, the a c l 80 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: U has said that they don't know yet whether they're 81 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: going to challenge it because they haven't seen it. So 82 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 1: if it is challenged, let's talk about the Supreme Court, 83 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: and how the Supreme in Court might handle this challenge 84 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: that it's a sixty day temporary band and it's actually 85 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: only sixty days, it's very unlikely to get to the 86 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: Supreme Court and actually be adjudicated within those sixty days. 87 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: If this is something that keeps being renewed, well, then 88 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,719 Speaker 1: you have to ask the question why is this band 89 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 1: continuing to be renewed. And so there's two different reasons 90 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: that are being given, and one is, Okay, we're trying 91 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: to protect people from the coronavirus. So to the extent 92 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 1: that that's true, you're gonna have to make it a 93 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: much narrower order than an entire band globally, because some 94 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 1: countries will have had this and have gone through it, 95 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: and others will have not had it and not gone 96 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: through it, etcetera. And then secondly, to the extentment to 97 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 1: save American workers for jobs, you have to be very 98 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,799 Speaker 1: careful there because, especially in the employment Green card context, 99 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,479 Speaker 1: many times the folks have already proven that there's not 100 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: a U. S worker available to do that job. And 101 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: so in that situation, it's hard for the President to 102 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: actually use a criteria that's not permitted under the law. 103 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:16,040 Speaker 1: The law already covered that issue, and so he's basically saying, well, 104 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 1: I don't care that's the law covered this issue. I'm 105 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: still going to ban people. Leon. Let's say we were 106 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: back to normal times. In what situation would the Supreme 107 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: Court grant review of a decision made by a lower 108 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: court on this order. Well, the way it would work 109 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: practically is, if the President's proclamation ends up being enjoined, 110 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 1: there's a chance the Supreme Court would take the case. 111 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 1: If the President's proclamation is not enjoyed, it's actually very 112 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: unlikely that they would take the case. But if they 113 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,359 Speaker 1: took the case based on a band from a lower court, 114 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: then I think they would actually look at the legitimacy. 115 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: This is what the Hawaii decision in the original Travel 116 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: Bank talked about. They look at whether it is facially 117 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: bona fide and legitimate. So I look at the legitimacy 118 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: of the decision. Is there actually something that this is 119 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: based on. The complication would be even just a global 120 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: band without any waivers or any any discussion about the 121 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: individual applicants, It's going to be hard to keep this 122 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,960 Speaker 1: ban in place. I'm not saying that maybe you don't 123 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: reflectively get five votes just no matter what. But this 124 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 1: case actually poses a more complicated dilemma than the travel 125 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: band case. I want to take a broader look at 126 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: immigration right now during the time of the pandemic, because 127 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 1: while the rest of the courts around the country are 128 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: basically grinding to halt, immigration courts are projected to issue 129 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: nearly six more deportation orders this year than last year, 130 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: and some are going forward even having cleaning crews in 131 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: hazmat suits when necessary. Well, the immigration courts have a conundrum. 132 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 1: So there's what's called the detained docket and the non 133 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: detained docket. The detained docket is there are people stuck 134 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: in immigration detention, and so you want to get their 135 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: cases resolved as soon as humanly possible so that they 136 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: don't remain in detention. The nonindtained docket means that the 137 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: perfect the government is trying to remove them, but they're 138 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: not in detention and so there's no sense of urgency. 139 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 1: So the non detained docket courts are closed until May fifteen. Now, 140 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: the detained docket courts, the reason that they're open is 141 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: because the government is in a very difficult spot where 142 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 1: if it just lets people language in detention that is 143 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 1: too is unconstitutional, but it doesn't want to release certain 144 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: people from detention. And this is where it becomes very 145 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:55,319 Speaker 1: complicated because surely most people in immigration detention, there's not 146 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: really a problem releasing them because they haven't committed a 147 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: violent crime. For the cases where people have committed a 148 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: violent crime, you are caught in between a rock and 149 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 1: a hard place. Do you release those individuals into the 150 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 1: community and then have to try to pick them up later, 151 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 1: or do you continue these court proceedings so that they're 152 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 1: not sitting there languishing in detention. And then the other 153 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: complication is, but what if the country we're trying to 154 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,679 Speaker 1: deport them too is an accepting people right now because 155 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 1: of the coronavirus, Well, then this whole court proceeding is 156 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 1: for not just lawyers and judges are getting sick because 157 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 1: you're not going to be able to actually secure a 158 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 1: removal anyway, even if the court proceeding doug go on, 159 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: and in that situation, then even further consideration needs to 160 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 1: be given to releasing the detainees. The National Association of 161 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: Immigration Judges is saying that it's unsafe and calling for 162 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: the courts to be closed. If that happened. That would 163 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: mean keeping those detainees in custody, right, it would require 164 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: a very difficult choice for the government. If you close 165 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: the detained immigration courts, the government would then have to decide, 166 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: do we want to face the possibility of getting many 167 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: lawsuits because our people are admittedly languishing in civil detention, 168 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: not criminal they've already served their criminal penalty. Civil detention 169 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: that is designed for removal only indefinitely. You have no 170 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 1: idea when they're going to get out of detention, and 171 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 1: so those cases are very compelling. Or do you have 172 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 1: to release these individuals into the public and then face 173 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: the possibility that a violent crime could be committed. And 174 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,040 Speaker 1: so most of the time, if you have any kind 175 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: of confidence that the person won't do something wrong again, 176 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,559 Speaker 1: you would want to release that person. But there are 177 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: some people that you'd have a high degree of confidence 178 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: they do something wrong again, And the question is what 179 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: do you do. Do you keep them in detention or 180 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: do you at least try to operate the immigration courts 181 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: as safely as possible to see if you can actually 182 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 1: get a removal order ready to go and get them 183 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: removed so that they are to stay in the tension 184 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:07,560 Speaker 1: leon why can't the immigration courts operate largely by video 185 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 1: conferencing or phone conferencing as other courts are. So this 186 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 1: can and cannot work. It depends. It's a little bit complicated. 187 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: And here is why. In the detained docket system you 188 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 1: have potentially three to four different sources of what's going on. 189 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 1: You have where is the judge going to be sitting, 190 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 1: where is the client going to be sitting because they're 191 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: in the tension, mind you, and where is the lawyer 192 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,559 Speaker 1: going to be sitting? And the problem is the lawyer 193 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,319 Speaker 1: needs to be able to confer with their client about 194 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,679 Speaker 1: what's going on in the case, and you can't really 195 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: do that be a video conference where everybody's listening to 196 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: you and there aren't. Really It would basically require a 197 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: whole new imagination of this system in order to get 198 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: it to work where there would be a secure line 199 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:05,199 Speaker 1: between detainees and their clients, I wouldn't be monitored, and 200 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:09,439 Speaker 1: that they could talk during the case, etcetera, etcetera. And 201 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 1: so it's not that it's technologically impossible. If that all 202 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: of that would require an investment that you have to 203 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 1: examine whether it's going to be a short term investment 204 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 1: or a long term investment, And it doesn't justify a 205 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: short term investment, but it would of course justify a 206 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 1: long term investment. I want to ask you about a 207 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:34,839 Speaker 1: claim that President Trump made yesterday that new border wall 208 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 1: is constantly being built, and also he tweeted this morning 209 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: in the meantime, even without this order, our southern border 210 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: added substantially by the one seventy miles of new border wall. 211 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: Are there one hundred seventy miles of new border wall 212 00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: and is it constantly being built? Well, all of this 213 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 1: is in the eye of the beholder, meaning it all 214 00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: depends what you want to define as all. Because if 215 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: you want to define a wall as a wall, like 216 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: the Berlin Wall or the Great Wall of China, you 217 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:10,199 Speaker 1: don't have that. If you want to define it as fencing, 218 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 1: then the question is what fencing are you calling wall? 219 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 1: Because there's even more than a hundred seventy miles of fencing, 220 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 1: but some of that fencing is quite easy to get through, 221 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 1: and then some of the new fencing that has been 222 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 1: put in during this administration is more difficult to get through. 223 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: And so the question then becomes what kind of fencing 224 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 1: it is? And that it is possible there's a hundred 225 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:38,319 Speaker 1: seventy miles of this new strong fencing, but in the end, 226 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 1: all that was was fencing that replaced other fencing that 227 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,960 Speaker 1: was there. And so I don't know what problem we're 228 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 1: trying to solve for there, but to the extent that 229 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: someone wants to make that claim, there definitely can be 230 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,199 Speaker 1: a way to make that plain dead.
