Q Do you know—you said you recall a message about putting pressure on him tonight. Is that right?
A I—we have to find the document.
Q Okay. Do you remember what was happening around this period of time, such that one might want to put pressure on Speaker Cutler?
A No. Like I said earlier, I wasn't involved in the conversations related to why we were asked to do certain things.
Q Had you been asked this kind of request before, to pull donor data, on other legislators at the State level or Federal?
A None that I recall.
Q So, from your recollection, this was, like, the first time that you'd received this kind of request?
A I think so. I may have been asked to do that—like I described earlier, Madison and I did informal vetting on people. I may have looked, you know, at the FEC website once or twice before in something related to that, but I don't recall any.
Q And with respect to the pressure to put on the House Speaker Cutler, was it your understanding it was financial pressure if it related to pulling donor data?
A I have no idea. I didn't send the message. So you'd have to ask Michael Brown as to what kind of pressure he was referring to.
Q Do you know if anyone pulled the donor data for House Speaker Cutler and cross-referenced them with President Trump?
