We will not be deterred from people like you and the press. You said something that wasn't true, which is...

So you just said what I said is not true. In fact, it was true. That's a suspicion that this administration has, and we're committed to finding out the truth.

So I did prepare a binder for the first briefing. My great assistant Keegan put it together. And then I showed up to work and it was like this thick. And I was like, I can't even move this. I can't use this. It was too cumbersome for my brain and the way I learn and think and study to have that. It felt like added weight.
