thank you for joining us. first of all, those notes, what else was revealed about the december phone call? >> well, i mean, according to the notes taken by richard donahue, the second in command at the department of justice at the time, they had pushed back on a number of false claims of voter fraud the president had presented them at the time, and no matter really how much pushback they gave -- the president responded along the lines of, well, i just don't think that you're paying attention to the same internet i am. and just this morning the president released a statement not denying anything that was released in the notes, but instead saying -- what's wrong with trying to uncover. so he hasn't backed away from it and i think a key thing here is sort of the change in the justice department's position from when trump was in office. when he was president, it is very likely that some of these documents would have never been turned over, but the biden justice department has taken a different view of executive pr
