[00:00:16]Look, there is still an active investigation going on. Two of the three people who were initially implicated are negotiating plea deals and in those plea deals they could name Secretary Basera.

[00:00:29]I don't know if they will but that is a risk and so I don't want to see what happened with Eric Swallwell happened with Javier Bera. This race is too close. It's too chaotic and there's no reason to take a risk. Look, the simple fact is Secretary Basera cannot promise Californians that he will not be named as a co-conspirator in this corruption charge. It was his campaign account. He signed off on it. It was his 25-year chief of staff who was receiving the money via this scheme. And just to be clear, he has said multiple times, including at CNN's debate, that he did nothing wrong. Are you saying that you don't believe that that's true?

[00:01:16]>> He said if someone has broken the law, they should be held accountable, which is a generic statement of truth that I would agree with. He has said at times that he didn't know about the money. He had no quote no vision into what was going on. And at other times, he's admitted that he signed the papers showing that $10,000 a month was going out for account maintenance. But he had another campaign account where he was paying $1,000 a month for maintenance.

[00:01:42]Why would you be paying 10 times more?

[00:01:45]It just raises a lot of questions. I do not have the facts here.

[00:01:50]>> No >> And to sort of make a an analogy to Eric Swallwell, um that's pretty explosive.

[00:02:00]>> A few moments later.

[00:02:02]>> So if the question is can someone win and do this? That is the actual question. and John, not can someone be good-hearted? There are lots of good-hearted people who I would be happy if they won. The question is, can someone actually do this?

[00:02:15]>> What's your response to him?

[00:02:18]>> Well, given that Tommy Styer is the person who leaked the video with me and the staffer from 5 years ago, he pretty clearly didn't think that I he pretty clearly wanted to be governor bad enough to knock me down to do it. And I've apologized for that video many times >> because I am confident that is the case.

[00:02:38]I've been told by many people it's a Department of Energy video. It was only held by the Department of Energy and people can follow the trail to who his campaign staffers are and understand what happened there.

[00:02:50]>> Sources do trust me.

[00:02:53]>> Um, Congresswoman, thank you for coming on. I should note that there we don't have evidence that Styer leaked that video of you. if you have it, please bring it. And also, you said some pretty tough stuff about Javier Bera. If he wants to come back on the show, uh, he is more than welcome to do that as well.

[00:03:11]Thank you for being here today. I appreciate it.

[00:03:15]Thank you.
