Senator Sheldon Whitehouse

It's clear to me that you're not being honest with us or the American people because you know the truth would disqualify you from getting the job.

Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

That wasn't my question. I'm just asking, have you been involved? You're about to be the Secretary of Defense, potentially. Have you been involved in discussions about using the active duty military inside the United States?

No, no, just have you been in conversations? Again, you're going to be in charge of 3 million people. The active duty that I know you care about, I believe you care about.
