But it is a significant matter. There are weighty and difficult legal issues involved. And, you know, I'm not going to let Mr. Clark produce either attorney-client or executive privilege or any other privileges in response to these questions. I don't know where that line is going to end up. So I have to protect him. So we are just not going to answer the questions.
I understand. We're talking past each other. I'm not trying to talk you out of your position at this point. I'm simply trying to establish a record that can be considered by the select committee first and ultimately potentially by the Attorney General of the United States if there's a criminal contempt referral or a Federal judge if there is some sort of effort civilly to enforce the subpoena. We don't have that complete record at this point. I'm not saying that any of that's going to happen, but we need to create a record to consider next steps. So it's not meant to be badgering. I understand.
