12 were your plans for January 6th? What events were you going to go to?

From what I recall, January 6th was about attending the Ellipse event at 6:00 or 7:00 a.m. to help guide VIPs to try to figure out when my speaking slot was going to be, to make sure they had control of all that media, et cetera. Sal don't know when I arrived, but it was certainly early. And to the best of my memory, it was certainly, you know, before 7:30 or 8:00, but these text messages will probably provide a better accounting of that time.

And again, on January 5th thinking about what am I expecting to do on January 6th at the conclusion of the President's speech, you know, he's going to keynote it obviously, we were going to exit and then go to Lot 8 where we had a permit for a coalition called "One Nation Under God," Stop the Steal was the funder of it; Stop the Steal was the main organizer of it, but it was a religious and political thing. We exhausted all of our other political options and left it up to Congress. And so, that is my awareness.

And what I want to convey to the committee is that you don't tell the President when to stop speaking. So while a lot of us may have said, Oh, this would be beautiful if it ended at 12:30, it could have ended at 1:00 or 1:30 and that would affect the lot 8 event. So anyway, I think to the best of my recollection, on January 5th, the only two events I'm planning to attend are the Ellipse event, and then the Lot 8 event, but I'm aware of, like, a dozen—nearly a dozen other events happening within proximity and others. And it's not foreign that people would pull me aside and ask me to attend something.

Thank you. And just to clarify, when you say Lot 8, where is Lot 8?

Lot 8 is, and this is a ser—it is kind of—it's not embarrassing, but just to show you how kind of—I've worked in politics a long time, but I've tried to avoid D.C., is
