Goodlatte continues to let the FL GOPers who most directly benefitted from the hack and leak have the early press time. And thus far, reporters aren't noting that significance.

Gowdy says Mueller hasn't found anything yet. Now says this country is being hurt by Mueller investigation. We've seen the bias. We need to see the evidence. If you have evidence of wrong-doing, present it to GJ.

"Whatever you got, finish it the hell up, bc this country is being torn apart." If Mueller unrolls something major in near term Gowdy may regret that line.

Cohen: Was Strzok head of those investigations? Wray: Supervisory chain, a number of people above him.

Wray keeps saying that IG found no impact of political bias.

Cohen asks if Rosenstein or Wray knows Mueller's team's political registration. He asked question wrong: It should be how many people are on the team. It's far more than 13 and most aren't Dem supporters.

Rosenstein: I can assure you Mueller knows I want him to conclude as quickly as possible while still doing it right.

Wray: My experience w/Mueller none of those adjectives would describe anything he's done in his service for this country.

Jordan: Why are you keeping information from Congress. Congress is about to say you haven't complied with requests. In just a few minutes that's going to happen. Rosenstein: I hope your colleagues are not under that impression. Goodlatte won't let Rosenstein answer.

Jordan: Why would you hide the fact that Contreras and Strzok are friends. ROsenstein: I've heard you make those allegations public on TV. Rosenstein: I am DAG. I'm not the person responsible for doing redactions.

Jordan: Did you threaten HPSCI staffers? Media reports say they did. Rosenstein: Media reports are wrong. There's no way to subpoena phone calls.

Rosenstein: You should believe me bc I'm under oath. If you want to put them under oath. Jordan: We work with them.

After Jordan said that he trusts the people they know, Rosenstein said, "thanks for making clear it's not personal."

Again, Goodlatte is giving all the early time to people interested only in getting quick headlines. Two, especially DeSantis, are deeply conflicted.

Wray: We also have an obligation to protect ongoing CI and criminal investigations and GJ secrecy and sources and methods. IG report, the report we're here to talk abt, is pointed that one of principle failings it found is commenting publicly & wCongress.

Wray: Certainly when I was minding my own business in ATL, I didn't think I'd spend my first 10 months staring down a contempt citation for stuff that happened before my time.

This is great theater by the GOP and most journalists are going to fall for it, rather than noting that they're being used.

One GOPer voting present thus far. Would that a slew of them did. It's the only dignified thing to do.

Thus far all but one GOPer going along with shitshow theater.

226-183, resolution complains that Rosenstein isn't handing over documents. Remarkably cynical but they're going all in on the cover-up of Donald Trump's crimes.
