Congresswoman Murphy, are you on as well? Are you able to see and hear us?
Mrs. Murphy. I am on. I'm going to leave my video off though if that's okay, but I want to verify that it's me.
Good. We can see and hear you. Thank you for joining us.
Okay.
Mr. Donoghue, now, you—this is not—you are not under oath. That said, this is an official proceeding of the House, and a false statement could be 1001 violation. Of course, you know to tell the truth at all times. And, if you can't recall specifically an answer, then just say so. Ask me to repeat a question if it's not clear. If it is—you need clarification before you answer, just ask me to repeat or rephrase, and I will do that.
If you need any time to consult with Mr. Andres or your other attorneys, that is totally fine. We will stop and give you that opportunity. If you need a break at any time, that's fine as well. We'll take breaks periodically, but if you need one, just say the word, and we'll stop.
Our essential agenda for the day, we're going to break this into essentially two halves. The first half will be to talk a little bit about events around the time of the election, meetings and conversations you had with the President, former President and others in the White House, about allegations of election fraud. That should take up the morning, about 2 hours or so. Maybe we'll take a break, midday break for lunch.
And then we'll resume in the afternoon with some questions about preparation for and events of January 6th itself. will be the one asking you those questions. And I'll periodically stop. Members of the committee may have questions, other counsel here. Everyone will have a chance to ensure that we get the benefit of your experience. I hope that we are finished mid-afternoon. It sort of depends on how quickly we can march through that subject matter.
