you might have a situation in which white house counsel was aware of this complaint and aware of concerns and was also involved with giving directions to members of the directorate of intelligence to really do something quite irregular with respect to transferring the transcript on to the code word system. at the same time, joke, i am very surprised to hear from the department of justice that attorney general barr did hear about the contents of this call until reportedly weeks after it happened. the department of justice issued that as a statement a few days ago. that would be another gross irregularity. attorney general barr was mentioned by name on the call with the president and he is saying that he did not have any knowledge of the fact that he was named in the call despite the fact he was named by the president of the united states and somehow other officials at the state department went to do follow-up work with the ukrainens and contacted rudy giuliani but did not contact the department of justice to follow-up. >> let me read something from the complaint. what sam was just talking about.
