How many days before we invaded Iran, did you know we were going to launch an invasion?

We can get into those details on classified setting, but I work with my colleagues across the spectrum here

to give me advance warning so that we can reinforce.

Was it two days, three days, a month?

It was some time before that, sir.

Sometime before that, you had done.

With that knowledge, why did you fire at least a dozen agents in counterintelligence unit 12

that specializes in Iran counterintelligence, which makes us much less secure and safe with this war going on from Iranian attacks potentially against our country?

As I said earlier, Congressman, I don't work on timelines when these terminations occur.

There are internal investigations conducted by the careers at the FBI that highlight

unethical or inappropriate conduct, and it's up to me to make the decision.

But our Iran threats mission center has never been more resources.

I've highlighted a 43% increase in counter-espionage arrest from Iran alone and 360 ongoing terrorism investigations with Iran affiliated. And the people you fired, those 12 people, they were experts on Iran, were they not? I don't believe so. They worked in counterintelligence, do they not? I'm taking you at your word, sir. I'm not familiar with every single word. You're the chief director. I'm not. You should know the answer. You fired the people. Where did they work? People were terminated for violating their ethical obligations and the high standards. Was the ethical violations that they dealt with the case of the classified documents that were found at the bathroom in Mar-a-Lago? Was that the ethical issue?

As I said earlier, all those matters are pending litigation, so I'm not going to comment on them.

Of course, no, Japan and U.S. are a very good friend.

But one question, why didn't you tell U.S. allies in Europe and Asia like Japan about the war before attacking Iran?

So we are very confused about Japanese citizens.

Well, one thing you don't want to signal too much.

You know, when we go in, we went in very hard, and we didn't tell anybody about it because we wanted surprise.

Who knows better about surprise than Japan?

Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?

Okay?
