STRAWBRIDGE: “Well, look, the Department of Homeland Security recognizes refineries as critical --” [crosstalk]
SULLIVAN: “You know what I'm talking about?”
STRAWBRIDGE: “We absolutely have to do everything that we can. And at the port of Corpus Christi, we take all of those facilities, their security, absolute -- with absolute seriousness.
