      The hearing came back on while I was in a meeting. So I've lost the running count but Biggs and DAG R are discussing the IG report.

          Gaetz asked how quickly docs relating to tarmac could be released if POTUS declassified them. Remember, he just got off Air Force One flight.

          OK. I watched the whole damn thing. Overwhelming takeaway: No one on HJC has a fucking clue what FBI does.

          Also, if anyone cares, by my count DAG R raised the IG investigation fewer times (11 v 16) than FBI Director Wray last week.

          Oh wait. Number is 13 v. 16. So still fewer times but not by much.
