00:00What elections are all about. Yeah, please. Thank you so much, President Trump. Two questions for you. One, did you were you aware of and did you personally approve the prison transfer for Ghislaine Maxwell that your Justice Department? I didn't know about it at all. No, I read about it just like you did. And do you believe that she is not a very uncommon thing? Do you believe that she's credible to be listening to your deputy attorney general sat down with her recently? Well, he's let me tell you, he's a very talented man. His name is Todd Blanch. He's a very legitimate person. Very high.
00:30I just a very highly thought of person respected by everybody. And I didn't talk to him about it. But I will tell you that whatever he asked would be totally appropriate. And it's not an uncommon thing to do that. And I think he probably wants to make sure that, you know, people that should not be involved or aren't involved or not hurt by something that would be very, very unfortunate, very unfair to a lot of people.
00:55But I will say this, Todd Blanch is one of the most highly respected people you'll ever meet. So I know this. I didn't discuss it with him. But anything he talked about with her or the fact that he did that, not unusual, number one, and most importantly, is something that would be totally above board.
01:13So, hang on.
