[0:00] Thank you very much.

[0:01] >> What is coming out uh Congressman is a a

[0:04] a clear example that the bureau was less

[0:08] than forthcoming with their facts and

[0:10] dissemination of information to members

[0:13] of the media, Congress, and the American

[0:15] people. What we have is we have a

[0:18] situation whereby the bureau opted to

[0:21] posture themselves early on in a

[0:23] litigation mode to to kind of protect

[0:26] themselves and dig in in that very legal

[1:09] of the United States is trying to

[1:12] scapegoat them to escape any damage to

[1:14] him or his legacy that they're being

[1:17] hammered from all sides. Do you find

[1:19] that also? I find that I still have a

[1:21] lot of friends in the bureau as well as

[1:23] the justice department. And one of the

[1:24] things that that happened when Louis

[1:26] free was first sworn in, there were more

[1:28] agents and and personnel that referred

[1:30] to themselves as F
