I got a phone call on, I think it was the 27th, from a member of his inner circle. I can provide her name and information to corroborate this. She told me that Kelly Belanger had told her not to call me. Minh had been making comments, saying I was the one who had made the decision that it would be GC Strategies, even though the entire team, which was helping to brief Minh Doan all the way, had not said that.
When I talked to Minh Doan the next day, he had already asked me to help him with the committee. This is why it was a bit jarring for me. He was pretty upset. At times, he was almost crying. At times, he was almost yelling. He basically said that somebody's head was going to be on a platter. He started by saying it was between him and Jonathan. He then quickly switched it, saying that if he was asked, he was going to say it was I who had made the decision.
