I'm the one who said it. I'm telling you what I meant. I am telling you what I meant. And that's what I said, which is that -- and I've already described it. Q But is it right that you intended to convey -- as far as you can recall from the interview last year -- you intended to convey with the word \"I\" that you were speaking only about yourself individually, not in the context of anybody other than you and Epstein being in the room? When you said \"I,\" you just meant I, Secretary Lutnick, alone, was never in the room with Jeffrey Epstein? A I think that's generally right.
