“The answer is yes. But I would also say, the point you made earlier, if you have the same agency today that, somehow, because things have changed in this country, is in fact moved to a different location, they are doing the same type of work, but instead of doing it with regard to domestic security they are doing it because of an outside threat by terrorists, for instance, that mission has substantially changed. Their mission is no longer to stop, perhaps, Mexicans from crossing the U.S. border into Texas. Their mission is now to stop terrorists from entering the United States. That mission has substantially changed. That meets the test. Who gives the test? The President. Who grades the test? The President. So that mission has changed if the enemy has changed. That is very clear. It is a decision the President would make.”
