(13:45:29) Roger Altman testified that he kept a diary or as he referred to it his scrapbook of historical significance. One of the items in that diary or scrapbook is his impression of a meeting with you in January of this year. He wrote that he received the impression from you that the White House was actively trying to negotiate with the Attorney General and other officials at the Department of Justice over the jurisdiction or scope of what a Special Counsel could look into regarding Madison Guaranty- and Whitewater-related matters. This was before the Special Counsel had been appointed. The point being that after months of opposition, stonewalling, backing and filling, the Clintons were finally about to succumb to insurmountable political and growing editorial pressure and ask for the appointment of a Special Counsel. But not until they could first try to limit and control his jurisdiction. Now, down in Eastern North Carolina that's known as not wanting to get bitten by your own dog. But Ms. Williams, as I'm sure you're aware, it has been widely reported that Mrs. Clinton was adamantly opposed to the appointment of a Special Counsel and I believe she has admitted to as much. Now I'd like to ask you a few questions regarding the appointment of the Special Counsel in order to clear up any lingering misconceptions and set the record -straight. Ms. Williams, did Mrs. Clinton have any communication with Robert Fiske prior to his appointment as the Special Counsel? Ms. WILLIAMS. To my knowledge, absolutely not. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Could it have occurred without your knowledge? MS. WILLIAMS. It could have, but I doubt it very seriously. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Bernard Nussbaum, the former White I-louse Counsel, and Robert Fiske are friends and professional associates. Mr. Nussbaum and Robert Fiske represented the same side in at least two different legal cases. Mr. Nussbaum even recommended his friend Robert Fiske for a job with lran-Contra Special Counsel, 346 Lawrence Walsh. Now Mr. Fiske is investigating Bernard Nussbaum for activities we cannot discuss here today, Ms. Williams, are you aware of any communication between Hillary Clinton and Bernard Nussbaum determining the appointment of Robert Fiske as Special Counsel? Ms. WILLIAMS. No, sir, I am not. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Are you aware of any communication between any White House official, including the Office of the First Lady, and Robert Fiske prior to his appointment as Special Counsel? Ms, WILLIAMS. I am certain that there was not. I mean, Mr. Fiske is, as I understand it, a Republican contributor to Republican campaigns. Senator FAIRCLOTH. I just wanted to know, are you aware of any' communications? I don't need a history of Mr. Fiske. Ms. WILLIAMS. No, sir. I'm not aware of any. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Are you aware of any communication between Mrs. Clinton or her representatives and officials at the Justice Department concerning the appointment of Special Counsel? Ms. WILLIAMS, No, sir. I am not aware of any, Senator FAIRCLOTH. This question is for Mr. McLarty. We've heard testimony about a meeting on September 29, 1993, in which the White House received a "heads-up" about the RTC criminal referrals. I'm trying to determine whether this in fact was the first "heads-up." When you had Mr. Cutler do his report on White House-Treasury contacts regarding the RTC criminal referrals, did he investigate possible "heads-up" earlier than September 29th? Mr. McLARTY. Senator, his report was a thorough one. You'll have to ask him about the scope before that, but it's a very thorough report and I think he examined all contacts, but he can speak to that in a more precise way than I can. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Did anyone in the White House have any communication with anyone who was aware of the existence or content of the RTC criminal referrals before the September 29th "heads-up "? Mr. MCLARTY. Not to my knowledge, Senator,

August 4, 1994 - Part 5
(13:50:11) Senator FAIRCLOTH. Mr. McLarty, yesterday at the House hear- ings, Representative Leach said that there were some highly un- usual things that happened right around the time that the White House was given the September 29th "heads-up." At that time the usual practice for RTC investigators was for RTC investigators to send criminal referrals directly to the Justice Department. This was the policy; a criminal referral from RTC went straight to Jus- tice. Instead, they were sent to lawyers in Washington on Septem- ber 30th. The day after Jean Hanson gave the White House a "heads-up" that those referrals were coming to the Washington RTC office, RTC lawyers began what Representative Leach referred to as an unprecedented review of these referrals. RTC lawyers then delayed transmitting the referrals to the Justice Department for a week and they developed a legal analysis rejecting the personal in investigators' recommendation; in other words, the RTC lawyers went against their own people. They raised questions about the statute of limitation and double jeopardy for James McDougal Of Madison Guaranty Savings & Loan. A major effort was taken by RTC lawyers The CHAIRMAN. Senator Faircloth, excuse me. I don't want to interrupt you and that's why I've been listening carefully to what you say here. I think we're up against the scope problem here in terms of whether or not we're veering over the line. I don't say if we are that you are doing that intentionally but whether we're getting into any part of an active phase of the Special Prosecutor's investigation that he's asked us not to penetrate and so I'm concerned that we may be running that risk here. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Mr. Chairman, just let me ask the question, because I wanted to be up against the wall. I just didn't want to jump it. The CHAIRMAN. I understand. Senator FAIRCLOTH. They were worried about double jeopardy for James McDougal at Madison Guaranty Savings & Loan, A major effort was undertaken by RTC lawyers to debunk their own investigation. When the referrals were finally sent to the Justice Department, they went with an objecting legal analysis attached. RTC sent an objecting legal analysis from their own professional field investigators. Jean Hanson has apparently said she does not recall the events, but according to the Acting RTC General Counsel at that time, Glion Curtis-1 think that's the correct pronunciation-General Counsel at that time, Glion Curtis, said she was briefed. Mr. McLarty, according to Mr. Leach, the RTC lawyers in Washing-ton were trying to debunk the deferrals-referrals the day after the September 29th meeting. Now, White House meeting. Let me ask, were you aware of these events? The CHAIRMAN. Well, on this point, I think to ask the witnesses to comment on this, it's one thing I think for you to pose an issue that's in your mind or a concern that you have. I think to the extent that we now start to build an exchange here and put these questions to the witnesses and ask them to respond, we run smack into the injunction that we're-that we face of, I think, crossing the line into the area where there's an active investigation underway that we've been asked not to interfere with. I feel compelled to say to the witnesses at this point that, no matter how benign the answer may be or otherwise, that I don't think it's appropriate for us to engage in questioning on that right now since that is in an area that Mr. Fiske has asked us not to deal with at this point and which the Senate also has ruled out of bounds for us as I read our resolution. So if I may say, and I do that respectfully to the Senator from North Carolina, but I think you want to go right up to the line. I understand that. I think we're there. I think if they start engaging you in this line of discussion then we've gone over the line, and I can't permit that and I don't think you necessarily want that to happen either. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Well, my time is up. I've got one more quick question. Do you believe it would be significant if there was "heads-up" earlier than that which has been testified to here so far? Would that be a significant thing, Mr. McLarty? 347 348 Mr. McLARTY. Senator, I really honestly don't know how to re- spond to your question or your statement. It's obvious you know a lot more about these RTC matters than I do. And without studying a specific issue, I don't know how to respond to your question whether it would be significant or not.

August 4, 1994 - Part 5
(13:55:30) What I can say is there is no evidence to suggest that anyone in the White House has done anything to influence the RTC's decision process and I think career RTC people have said the same thing under testimony-under oath. The CHAIRMAN, Thank you. Senator Dodd. Senator DODD . Thank you, Mr. Chairman. This will be very, very brief. I know we need to move on. Just a couple of observations. One, our colleague from Delaware, Senator Roth, in talking about "de facto recusal" and de jure, I guess, recusal I think tried to use your recusal, Mr. McLarty, as an example where your former employment with ARCO and your status there and then the company's involvement with some issues to be forwarded compared that to Mr. Altman's decision to recuse as if somehow they were on some sort of equal footing. I think the record needs to reflect that Mr. Altman, whatever other complaints people may have, had no financial interest in Madison Guaranty or any of the interests that were going to come before the RTC. His decision to recuse, ultimately I guess, was based more on what he felt may have been a personal relationship with the President and Mrs. Clinton than anything else. I just didn't want those two examples to be left out there as comparables. That's more of a statement than a question. But, Mr. Chairman, I'd like to make a couple of observations, if I could, because I think the record ought to reflect this. We've seen a strong indication of this Administration's willingness to be coop- erative. I know of no other example on inquiries by the U.S. Senate where the Chief of Staff of the President of the United States and the Chief of Staff of the First Lady have come before a Senate Committee-now there are historians around here who may correct me but as far as I know that is unprecedented-voluntarily to come forward and to talk about these matters. The normal course is to fight that every step of the way. We've seen that experience in the past and for many people who may be watching these procedures or listening to them who may not be familiar of the historical context, the fact that Mr, McLarty and MS. Williams are here today voluntarily to answer questions, and I think very directly and very candidly of this Committee, is some- thing I hope the Committee will take note of as an unprecedented step. And secondly The CHAIRMAN. Well, Senator Dodd, shouldn't it be noted, too, they're here because the President told them to come up here and, respond to these questions? Senator DODD. Which as well the President deserves credit for He asked them to come here rather than fighting it all the way and hiring six law firms to try to come up with Constitutional arguments why you don't have to appear here. We've seen that in past. 349 Secondly, Mr. McLarty, I want to pay a particular compliment to you as a former Chief of Staff. This group of people we had before us yesterday was about as fine a group and I'd say the same for Ms. Williams as well, but and I think you heard that from almost every Member here. They answered directly, and honestly took steps of their own volition in a number of instances in which others, I think, would be the first to tell you today they wish they had in a couple of other instances. I think that's a compliment to you in putting together a first- class team of people. These are people's faces the American public never get to see. They probably don't remember their names today, who they were, but they're down there every day working very hard. I think they reflected well on the President and on the people around him who put that staff together and I want the record to reflect that as well. Last, and it's a question for you. In his testimony before the House of Representatives, Lloyd Cutler noted that while various Treasury-White House contacts violated no ethical standards in his judgment, it would have been better if some of the contacts had never occurred. He noted- and in fact-I didn't know he used these words and I used them because my colleague from Utah has repeated them but-when I consider I used the word "sloppy"--there were too many meetings, too many people milling around, that created some of these difficulties. So instead of going back over that, I wonder if you might share with this Committee what steps have been taken at the White House within this Administration as a result of what's happened here, to minimize this from happening again? Just from an administrative standpoint, that would avoid the kind of proliferation of meetings and people being involved in something beyond their scope of responsibility, if you will.

(14:00:28) Mr. McLARTY. Senator, first, thank you for your kind words and not only about me but more importantly about the dedicated men and women who serve in this White House. And while 1 appreciate your generous comments about putting the staff together, I really would be remiss if I did not underscore that they reflect the President, the Vice President's input and their values in the White House makeup. Second, to respond to your question, I made almost an identical comment that, particularly with the benefit of hindsight, some things should have been done differently and Mr. Cutler points that out in his report and outlines really three steps: First, that any contacts relating to a particular law enforcement investigation should be initiated with White House Counsel approval. And as I said in my opening statement, even better, on a Counsel-to-Counsel basis which is what he recommends. And I would note that many of the contacts that are being discussed today had White House Counsel either approval or involvement or were handled on a Counsel-to-Counsel basis, but still there were too many contacts. And third, Mr. Cutler points out that lie and his colleagues in the White House Counsel's Office are drafting rules of conduct for the future concerning contacts between the Office of the White House Counsel and the Executive Branch agencies with law enforcement functions. The first two are already implemented, the third is in process and will be implemented shortly. 350 Senator DODD. I commend you for that and that's the kind of response and action

(14:10:46) I'm trying to think about why he would perhaps have imputed more meaning to the extent that he felt, quote, "whatever the pressure was that caused him to change his thinking," if he might have imputed to your comment, which was an offhand comment as you describe. it, a meaning beyond what you intended but what he might in his mind have attached to it. Do you understand what I'm saying? MS. WILLIAMS. Yes, sir, and Senator Riegle, I really believe that you are trying to understand this, and I really want to help you understand this, but I have to tell you, I do not know what was in Mr. Altman's mind. The CHAIRMAN. No, I understand. No, I'm not asking you to try to guess at that. I'm trying to, in my own mind, think about how two people with good intentions in the same meeting could have events unfold and come away with perhaps very different feelings about it. Ms. WILLIAMS. Yes, sir. The CHAIRMAN. You see what I'm saying? Ms. WILLIAMS. I absolutely see what you're saying. The CHAIRMAN. Committee stands in recess until 3:15.

(10:55:42) He heard the testimony and he was sufficiently concerned about it. He had enough of those facts in his mind that the first moment that he had, he got up, went out into the hallway, this is his testi- mony, got on his mobile phone to call the White House, to say we have got a problem here, or whatever words he used, that the testi- mony was not complete and therefore presumably would be mis- leading because it was not full and complete. I do not know if you do that all the time or not. That sounds to me like a rather unusual procedure. Does that happen a lot? Mr. McLARTY. You mean in terms of the White House The CHAIRMAN. Having somebody from the Legal Counsel's Office coming to a hearing to listen and, in turn, have an immediate re- sponse capability if a problem of this sort arises? Mr. McLARTY. Well, Mr. Chairman, I think it would not be un- usual for someone from the White House to be in attendance at a Congressional hearing. That would not be an unusual situation. The CHAIRMAN. Well let me press you on that. I am talking about the Legal Counsel's Office. He was not up there at the table testifying. Ile was not part of Altman's team. They were up in the front row and so forth. He was somewhere back in the audience. Just as a matter of record, does the Legal Counsel's Office in the course of a week or a month of hearings, would they be up here all the time, some of the time, or on rare occasion? Mr. McLARTY. I really, Mr. Chairman, would think on some occa- sions but certainly not all of the time. The CHAIRMAN. It strikes me that it would be unusual for that to happen, It might happen on occasion, but I have to impute from 304 this that there was enough concern and sensitivity about this hearing that somebody from the Counsel's Office was detailed to be here in that hearing as a watchbird and as somebody to listen and be able to get back in a hurry. Isn't that a fair conclusion to draw from this? Mr. McLARTY. Well, Mr. Chairman, I understand your reasoning. This hearing, as I understood it or understand it, was on the RTC matters. I think it is understandable why the White House Counsel's office would be involved in that particular matter. And Mr. Eggleston has already given testimony to your Committee, as Senator Bryan and others have commented. The CHAIRMAN. I guess one of the things we will have to try to pin down is why when the alert went out Mr. Eggleston was here, did his job, and realized the testimony was not sufficient. He went:' out into the hallway. He phoned Mr. Podesta, and that set in motion a whole chain of events. The one event that did not get triggered was somebody coming to us promptly and saying: By the way, you just got something less than full and accurate testimony. So then what happens is that quite a long period of time ensues. We get four clarifying letters that come on different dates thereafter, none of which, as it turns out, are complete and full. In fact, it was not until these hearings took place that we got in a sense a full accounting insofar as one can be reconstructed, of the number of contacts and activities that would fit within the scope of the questions that were asked that day. That is troubling. I think it is troubling as a system, as a work system. I would hope that if an alert goes out like that and goes back to the White House that there would at least be two channels that it then goes down. One channel would be to say that within 24 hours we want that testimony corrected fully in every degree, and we want to make sure that that happens. I want somebody to come back-this is a hypothetical person in charge in the White House saying this, the Chief of Staff or somebody designated by you-and that I want to know that we are not going to leave a situation like that sort of hanging out there for days, or weeks, or in this case as it

(14:00:01)(tape #10091 begins) what steps have been taken at the White House within this Administration as a result of what's happened here, to minimize this from happening again? Just from an administrative standpoint, that would avoid the kind of proliferation of meetings and people being involved in something beyond their scope of responsibility, if you will.

I commend you for that and that's the kind of response and action (14:02:01)(tape #10090 ends) that I'm pleased to see and undertaken of Your own initiative. It should be noted of course that you said 80 in your opening statement. As I mentioned last week, we've used a lot of language and acronyms and dates and names that could probably cause most people's eyes to glaze over. Except for the subject matter we're talking about, and the notion that this was an all-consuming set of events because that's what we're paying attention to here, as you point out in your testimony, goes far beyond that. From the end of September, September 29 to roughly March 3 or 4, 1994, is the window we're talking about. We passed the North American Free Trade Agreement, obtained a GATT agreement, and the President traveled a number of places worldwide. There's a whole list of things that you included in your testimony that involved-I know because I was involved in a number of these things--countless hours, countless meetings and this did not cause a paralyzation of activity at all. Quite to the contrary. A lot of other things were going on and I think that should be noted as well.. With that I thank both of you for being here today and I commend you on your testimony. Mr. McLARTY. Senator, thank you. The CHAIRMAN. Let me just indicate, I've talked to the Senators on this side and I have not received any indication from anybody that has any further questions right now. Is that correct, Senator Sasser? Senator SASSER. Well, Mr. Chairman, to paraphrase our own colleague, Stu Udall, every question has been asked of this panel that needs to be asked. I'm just not sure that everybody's asked it yet. [Laughter.] Senator D'AMATO. Mr. Chairman Senator SASSER. But frankly, I don't have any further questions. Thank you. The CHAIRMAN. Let me also say it will be my intention, once we finish with this panel which I hope we can do shortly, we'll take roughly a half an hour break because we know we've got two other panels today and we want to get through both of those, so that we can let people get a bite of lunch. We'll start roughly a half an hour after we recess. So let's finish up with this panel now. Senator Bond. Senator BOND. Just a couple of quick questions and I'll try to be brief. Mr. McLarty, when you are going to do an interview, show or major appearance, do you normally have somebody prepare a briefing memo for you on positions that the White House has taken or that you are taking? Do you have a memo prepared for you? Mr. McLARTY. Senator, usually it is not in written form. It really depends on the type of interview. Usually the preparation is rather brief and, frankly, reflects a discussion with two or three people that are involved in topical areas that the interview will probably focus on. Usually there's-usually there's nothing written, prepared. Senator BOND. Is there anybody generally responsible for that, preparing you on those interviews? Mr. McLARTY. It really depends on the type of interview and the topics and what is topical at the time. If it's going to be on foreign 351 policy, the briefing would normally come from the NSC. If it's on economic matters, it would come from the National Economic Counsel personnel.
