issue, but the issue is tactics. And a question is, were you aware of Roger Stones and Dottman before it became public? Congressman, that's a, as you know, an important question. It is also Mr. Stone is part of an ongoing investigation, but I have, again, been briefed on the special council's investigation that would have been a, you know, that would have been considered a development that I would have been briefed on and I was briefed on that. Are you familiar from public reports or otherwise that a CNN reporter was camped outside of Stones house when the FBI arrested him? Thank you. This wouldn't be part of the investigation, but I am aware of that and it was deeply, deeply concerning to me as to how CNN found out about that. Well, that is good. I'm glad we're going down that road. Mr. Attorney General, because this is a, did somebody at the Department of Justice seemingly share a draft indictment we see in him prior to Stones arrest? Or prior to a grand jury's finding of a true bill? Ranking member Collins, the court had a sealed indictment that after Mr. Stones arrest was unsealed, consistent with all its prior indictments, the DOJ's basic policy for transparency criminal cases is that the indictment is posted on the DOJ web page promptly after it's unsealed and then media outlets were notified. We do not know of any, and I do not know of any other special counsel office notice or DOJ notice to media outlets regarding Mr. Stones indictment or his arrest. And given wise, you know, I really, as I sit here today, don't have any other information that I can talk about regarding Mr. Stones. So given your, I mean, given your answer even just then, it does seem concerning given the timing of this reporter's knowledge and other things that there seems to have been a gap in that discovery. And just another question is, is, if anybody would outside this, would you view this as a problem? I mean, because this looks like this is something I'm just asking in your final base here, would this be a problem with DOJ if we're looking at the timing doesn't match up? Because somebody was, it seems to appear that this was given prior knowledge, not going through the normal channels. Because if it was given through normal channels, every media outlet would have been there. But only one was. Mr. Collins, I share your concern with the possibility that a media outlet was tipped off to Mr. Stones either indictment or arrest before it was made, that information was available to the public. One of the other issues, and this is, you know, since we're going to go down this to chairman, I wanted to have this. And this is a question that's not known from a year, and it should be, is, Bruce Orr still employed with the Department of Justice? To answer your question directly, Mr. Collins, Bruce Orr is currently employed with the Department of Justice. Okay. Is there any process at this point or in that you could comment on, understand personal issues? But are you aware of the discussions and also the implication and investigations, friend, from congress and from others, surrounding Bruce Orr's involvement in many of the investigation problems that we have seen over the past few years at DOJ? Mr. Collins, I am generally aware of Mr. Orr being the, questions being raised about his behavior at the Department of Justice. Let me tell you a different way. Knowing what you know and seeing what you have seen and using your past experience in prior knowledge, do you believe that Mr. Orr was operating outside normal channels and appropriate channels in which he was operating under which has been public or reported? Mr. Collins, this is a very important question for many people both in this body and in the general public. The Office of Inspector General is currently looking at the Carter page FISA application, which is a very, very much of a concern. And it is also being reviewed at the same time simultaneously by Mr. John Huber, who is the US Attorney from Utah, who is asked by Attorney General Sessions to conduct a review of certain matters at the Department of Justice. And so, together with the fact that any situation regarding Mr. Orr's employment would be part of a confidential human resources process, I just am unable to talk any more about Mr. Orr, his involvement in any matters that could be subject to either an Inspector General's investigation or a human resource matter. Well, Attorney General Whitaker, boring the now again as we had another part to our play this morning when I found out that you may be subpoenaed to come back into a deposition, which again, as we continue down this line, it is any way around this to continue to attack it.
