What was the issue again? What was the issue that you all were discussing?

I know it was something—it was election integrity. And it was a Dear Colleague Letter. So it will be referenced there. But I don't recall what—everyone had their own bright idea, and everyone wanted to be a star. Jody Hice wanted to be a star. Ted Cruz wanted to be a star. Mo Brooks wanted to be a star. And then there were team players like, you know, Paul Gosar, who was, like, "Okay, I'll sign onto anything election integrity-wise."

I don't recall seeing any text messages in your production with anyone from Congressman Brooks' staff. You just said it was probably over text message.

I'll have to get with counsel and see what—see if there's something responsive there.

Again, were you searching for various Congressmen's names when looking for responsive documents responsive to the subpoena?

I consulted counsel when trying to find responsive documents and then hired a consultant ultimately when it was in over my head, as you guys know. I had to submit—well, I've submitted three or four different times.

But there was such a dramatic difference between our first production and our second production, because the first production was me trying to understand the House resolution and me trying to provide documents responsive to that.

Mr. Kamenar. As we said earlier, this is not a definitive, exhaustive list. We'll be glad to go back and re-check. So I appreciate your pointing these out, and we'll go back to the consultant or whatever to see.
