Mr. Director.
Just let the record show, Mr. Chairman.
The director of the FBI apparently does not want to answer the question.
about whether or not it's a crime to lie to Congress.
And I find that extremely troubling.
I find it troubling that you lie to the American people every day.
You are a disgrace, Mr. Director.

You ordered polygraph tests of members of your team to determine how that story came about.
No, have you ordered polygraph tests for members of your team to determine who is the source of the stories that I'm asking you about?

I want to start with a question that Senator Coons asked you that relates to this article where the headline is, Kash Patel's latest firings ousted agents with expertise in Iran.
The article says that these individuals were fired for their role in the classified documents investigations of Donald Trump.
First of all, is that true?
You did answer, Senator Coons, and I understood your answer to be that the people that were fired, that none of them were part of the group that had Iran expertise.
Is that your answer?
No, he asked if they were Iran experts.
I said they were not.
