attorney general jeffery rosen. on nine different occasions either on the phone or calling him in the white house, badgering this man to buy into the big lie theory. gives him these crazy theories of vote fraud generated by none other than rudy guiliani and others off the internet and rosen just basically says, no. they're not credible. i'm not going to do it. then comes the moment when trump basically threatens to take away his title as attorney general and put his buddy jeffery clark in the position. i want to tell you at that moment january 3rd or 4th of this year it was a critical moment in our nation's history. thank goodness the president relented at the last second. his own counsel basically said it was a murder-suicide pact he was considering and that there was going to be resignations across the country if he did anything this radical. the president was prepared to do this up until the very last minute. >> so as you know republicans on your committee put out a rebuttal to your report.
