ambiguity for any of our employees in any office about what their obligations are, and when there are misconduct found we will refer them to our opr reaction. if we find one that is criminal, we'll pursue it criminally. >> i have a minute and a half left and i'd like to ask one last question please. there was a question raised earlier about mr. comey having separate personal phone that he was using and whether or not that was an unusual thing for a person in his position. there's been reportedly the president uses two white house issued iphones, one allows him to make calls, the second is for his twitters -- his twitter habit. according to the politico he's resisted his aides to swap out the twitter phone on a monthly basis because it's too inconvenient. supposedly the president has given kim jong-un his direct phone number. if he was referring to his cell phone, this would raise some interesting security concerns. are you aware that these reports about various phones that are being used by the president? are you concerned about whether or not sensitive information from those devices

i don't to make any claims. but i want to make the request that we work in partnership with the tech companies to do everything we can to ensure every american's vote is counted fairly and every american has confidence in the vote and the ultimate election. american people are counting on you both. with that i yield back. >> chair recognizes is gentleman from arizona for five minutes. >>> thank you. the inspector general testified that peter struck led the investigation both for the e-mail investigation and the initial russian investigation. would you agree with his characterization of that? >> well, again, i wasn't there. i do think it's fair to say that mr. strzok played a lead role. exactly how it was structured and who super viced whom that's subject to more context and investigation by others. >> so what's been characterized today is that the findings of the inspector general there was none of the bias that has brought mr. strzok into such, under a microscope so closely, affected the decisions made in the h

sarah: i don't have any announcements on any candidates that the president may or may not endorse and wouldn't be able to address that from this venue. i'll come back to you. reporter: first, on the two immigration bills that the house is considering. does the president have a preference for one over the other? or are both just fine with him? sarah: if the process leads to a permanent solution as outlined by the president, we would support it. we've laid out what we want to see. if this gets to a permanent solution, then he would support it. reporter: another question about immigration. you blame the democrats for not closing the loopholes. republicans control both houses of congress and despite the president's repeated preference for mitch mcconnell to get rid of the legislative filibuster so they could pass something without democratic votes, they have not done that. so don't republicans take some responsibility for the immigration laws? sarah: if a handful of democrats wanted to solve this problem, we could quickly get it done. but they don't. they've refused to come to the table a

there's been no showing of any injustice here. there's no showing of any extraordinary instance here. all the evidence that they've even spoken to were evidence or argument that could have been made and should have been made at a prior hearing and frankly even if it had been made, none of it addresses the central issue this board voted on and correctly voted on and that is simple application of law. i think that's what -- going back to the last hearing -- and i think commissioner honda addressed that. but, you guys are acting as judges. you're not up here to make the law. there's lots of people here that disagree with my position. they have representatives, they can go change the law. i'm only here to see that the law's enforced. and i want to see the law enforced. i believe in the law and i also believe fundamentally that art should not be destroyed. and that's ultimately the issue here. and there is art that's going to be destroyed. the notion that you can piecemeal the early day statue from the creation, the art piece is an ins
