Q And were you brought—Mr. Donoghue, is it your understanding that you were brought because you were the guy at Justice that was essentially coordinating with the U.S. attorneys or had the most personal knowledge of those efforts to investigate this or other allegations?
A I assume that's why I was there, but, frankly, I didn't really question it. I don't know if I was requested or if the DAG decided I should go or perhaps AG Barr. I don't know. But I definitely had more knowledge about what was being done with regard to these investigations by the U.S. Attorney's Offices than did the DAG.
Q Yeah.
A So it would have made sense that he would have wanted me there.
