A I recall the President's account retweeting me, and I recall that tweet disappearing.

Q Who is Arthur Schwartz?

A Arthur Schwartz is a Jewish Republican individual. I think he does PR, or I'm not sure how you would characterize his services. And he did a lot of work with Don, Jr., Donald Trump, Jr.

Q And in that, "Dan" would refer I assume to Mr. Dan Scavino in the text? So the text, to be clear, is in exhibit 26 at page 102 is where you say this.

A In 102?

Q Yes. I'm just want to make sure that when it says Arthur Schwartz got Dan, we're talking about Dan Scavino.

A Oh, this sounds like—I'm sorry. 102?

Q Yes.

A This sounds like it's me speculating on who the possible—because, you know, it's been widely reported that Trump has access to his Twitter account and Dan has access to his Twitter account. So I relied on public reporting for that. And I—and I actually I've seen Dan use Trump's account for it. So I—I was trying to figure out who lobbied and who did it, or if that was the same person. And I know that Arthur Schwartz hated my guts.

Q Do you recall on December 30th, 2020, going to a meeting at the White House with Mr. Ed Martin?

A When?

Q At the end of December, December 30th, 2020, going to a meeting with Ed Martin, Mr. Ed Martin, at the White House?

A No, I don't believe I was there.
