jordan accused you, mr. rosenstein, on the floor during debate, of threatening the hip sy staff if they attempt to hold you inor failing to comply with document requests. i think it is important to put this on the record. have you ever threatened congressional staff including but not limited to house intelligence committee staff as it relates to requests for your -- for you to produce documents or any other matter for that? >> congresswoman, people make all kinds of allegations. and in my business, we ask who is the witness, how credible are they? if someone comes forward and swears under oath i threatened them, i'll be happy to respond. all i can tell you with regard to that matter is that in the room at the time were three officials appointed by president trump, confirmed by the united states senate, director wray, assistant attorney general boyd and me, two former u.s. republican attorneys were also in the room with us, greg brower, serving as the legislative liaison for the fbi and scott schools. the answer is, no. >> thank you very much. i would like to close with this as my time is running out. it seems
