about the permit.

Q Was it Mr. Nathan Martin's expertise to field questions about the Capitol permit?

A It's not his expertise, but he had the time.

A No. That is not my testimony, and that is not what this piece of evidence says.

Q I mean, you just said, "I didn't want to put myself on there because I didn't have time to field questions. It is not my expertise," but you put Mr. Nathan Martin on the application to field questions. What is Mr. Nathan Martin fielding questions for?

A I said as a general rule for all "stop the steal" activities.

Q I am talking about this permit.

A I know.

Q Why did you put Mr. Nathan Martin on this application?

A I didn't put him on the application.

Q Why did you instruct Mr. Stephen Brown to put Mr. Nathan Martin on this application?

A I don't know that I instructed him to do that.

Q So it is your testimony here today that you did not instruct Mr. Stephen Brown to put Nathan Martin on the application?

A I don't have any recollection of that. And I haven't been presented with any evidence that says that I directed that.

Q It is a yes or no. Do you recall telling Mr. Nathan Martin—Mr. Stephen Brown to put Nathan Martin on the application?
