Schiff: "Do you know that Mr. Podesta has said that at the time he was not even aware of whether his emails that had been stolen would be published?"
Rep. Terri Sewell, D-Ala.: "Can you say with any specificity what kind of coordination or contacts you're looking at in your investigation generally when confronted with something like this?"
Sewell: "Can you discuss whether or not there was any knowledge by any Trump-related person and the Russians?"
Sewell: "Can you characterize what the nature of your investigation generally -- when you do an investigation of this sort -- can you talk a little bit about the process, generally?"
Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C.: "Do you know whether Director Clapper knew the name of the U.S. citizen that appeared in The New York Times and The Washington Post?"
Gowdy: "Did you brief President Obama on any calls involving Michael Flynn?"
Gowdy: "Director Comey, there's been some speculation this morning on motive. I'm not all that interested in motive. First of all, it's really hard to prove. Secondarily, you never have to prove it. But I get that people want to know. I get the jury always wants to know why. I think you and I can agree there are a couple of reasons that you would not have to unlawfully, feloniously disseminate classified material. It certainly wasn't done to help an ongoing criminal investigation, because you already had the information, didn't you?"
Schiff: "Director Comey, are you aware that Roger Stone played a role on the Trump campaign?"
Schiff: "Have you read press reports where Mr. Stone proudly boasts of engaging in political dirty tricks?"
Schiff: "I mentioned before that Mr. Stone was in direct communication with a creature of Russian G.R.U. -- 'Guccifer 2.0' -- and that's something the intelligence assessment talked about, the role of 'Guccifer 2.0.' Mr. Stone, on August 17 -- are you aware -- received communication from 'Guccifer 2.0' that said, 'I'm pleased to say that you are great. Please let me know if I can help you anyhow. It would be a great pleasure to me.' Are you aware of that communication from, essentially from Russian G.R.U. through 'Guccifer 2.0' to Mr. Stone?"
Schiff: "Are you aware that Mr. Stone also stated publicly that he was in direct communication with Julian Assange and Wikileaks?"
Schiff: "Are you aware that Mr. Stone also claimed that he was in touch with an intermediary of Mr. Assange?"
Schiff: "In early October, are you aware that Mr. Stone tweeted, "I have total confidence that my hero, Julian Assange, will educate the American people soon"? Are you aware of that tweet?
Schiff: "And are you aware that it was only days later that Wikileaks released the Podesta emails?"
Rep. Himes, D.-Conn.: "Paul Manafort, as reported in The New York Times and other outlets, and his deputy, Rick Gates, ran a campaign in Washington to lobby government officials and push positive press coverage of pro-Russian Ukrainian officials. Paul Manafort began officially working for former Ukrainian President Yanukovych at least as far back as 2007, according to The Washington Post. It was only discovered by Ukraine's new national anti-corruption bureau, which found secret ledgers in Kiev indicating almost $13 million in undisclosed cash payments from Ukrainian government coffers to Paul Manafort for lobbying done between 2007 and 2012 for Mr. Yanukovych. Director Comey, did Paul Manafort ever register as a foreign agent under FARA [Foreign Agent Registration Act]?"
Himes: "Paul Manafort was, however, Donald Trump's campaign manager in July of 2016, correct?"
