00:00But just going back to you, Matt, I mean, in terms of the substance of what was discussed

00:05there, I mean, how would you classify it?

00:07Would you call the sort of exchange, especially the latest revelations we've seen from the

00:12Atlantic, I mean, is this sensitive information?

00:15Is this top secret information?

00:16Is this classified information?

00:19Because the Trump administration earlier said it was none of it was classified.

00:22But do you think perhaps they're having a rethink?

00:23Well, look, I think the Trump administration, to your point, has been clear that this is

00:26not classified information.

00:28That's what they're saying.

00:29And I'm going to believe what the administration is putting out there, obviously, in terms

00:32of what they're stating on this information.

00:34And look, they're going to do, obviously, the course of reviewing this and figuring

00:38out exactly what happened here.

00:39And obviously, the goal is to ensure it never happens again.

00:43You know, I would be assuming that the appropriate reviews will be done.

00:46I'm confident that will happen.

00:47And of course, you have confidence it'll never happen again, but never say never to anything.

00:51The bottom line is there's always situations that can occur.

00:54The goal is to learn from these things, to figure out, OK, what went wrong and then what

00:59can we do going forward as an organization, in this case, as a White House, as a national

01:04security community, to ensure this does not happen again.

01:08I think at the end of the day, though, you know, the good news here is that this wasn't

01:12classified in the eyes of the administration.
