00:00I recognize the gentleman from Ohio.
00:02Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
00:03First of all, I never said I wouldn't testify in front of the January 6th committee.
00:06I just want to know what the parameters of that testimony were going to be, so I never
00:09did say no to that.
00:10Second, the speaker before just said we don't know what we're looking for.
00:14We're looking for equal treatment under the law.
00:18Special Counselor Herr found Joe Biden knowingly kept classified information.
00:21Joe Biden knowingly disclosed classified information.
00:24He told us that on the very first page of his report, and then he told us later why
00:28he did so.
00:30He said he had strong motivation for ignoring classified procedures because he was writing
00:33a book for which he got paid $8 million.
00:35Again, we have motive, and we have him knowingly disclosing classified information.
00:40But he doesn't get charged.
00:42Yet President Trump does.
00:44President Trump does by Jack Smith.
00:47Jack Smith, the guy who had to file with the court a notice saying that he actually altered
00:53the order of the documents he seized on the raid of the president's home.
00:57He had to tell the court that.
00:59The physical documents don't match up with the scanned documents.
01:02You're not allowed to change the sequence of the documents you seized, but Jack Smith
01:07did.
01:08Jack Smith mishandled the documents.
01:10He's accusing President Trump of mishandling.
01:12You can't make this stuff up.
01:14That's what we're focused on, and oh, by the way, we're in the midst of an impeachment inquiry.
01:18We're entitled to the best evidence.
01:20That's why we want the audio tape.
01:22With that, I yield.
