[00:00:00]You had an opportunity to go down and talk to Jocelyn Maxwell.

[00:00:06]And then a few days later, she was transferred from a high security prison to a um very comfortable. I mean that's very comfortable.

[00:00:16]It's just not true. She was not in a high security prison. She was transferred from a low security prison to a low security prison.

[00:00:22]I mean, you're looking at me like that's that's verifiable. Well, I don't think that the other prison she had her own room. She had access to a private shower. She could have pet therapy and I don't know if any of that is true. I'm not disagreeing with you. It is true, and you should know it, Mr. I should know that you know whether an inmate has access to her own shower. No, no, this is a person of extra special interests to the President of the United States. He's an owner. Why did he send you down to talk to her? He didn't send me. I went. But what do you mean? Do you think President Trump called and asked me to go interview a witness in federal prison.

[00:01:03]Honestly, I do, frankly, because you know why didn't, because the deal was in. He needed somebody who could rely. He needed somebody who could rely upon to talk to her and say, what would she say if she was asked about Jeffrey Epstein and you were the perfect choice, and you went down there and suddenly Shae, she's out of what is a more confining situation into a not a a much more relaxed federal prison. Every word that I asked her is recorded and available to you to review if there's criticisms of the question that I asked her, go ahead and make them. But the president did not have anything to do with my choice to go interview Ms. Maxwell. If I wouldn't have went in a career would have went, you would have said, why didn't you go yourself? Just like you expect me to know whether she has access to her own shower. So I did go.

[00:01:51]Everyone in the United States who reads the newspapers know that.

[00:01:55]I guess you don't, you know, read things like that. You know, this, this whole hearing I think is exposing something which is to me very frightening. Uh, you're a very gifted lawyer. but from my perspective, you have very little faith to the Constitution and the people of America, and you're the president's consigliore. Your perspective is completely wrong, Senator, respectfully, I think the facts will prove me right.
