Welcome, everybody. I think we have some leadership, about the theyll be coming in. Can you see, can you hear me . Is it working . Well, the election is over. Theyre still counting the votes and making legal challenges, and once all the legal challenges are made and the votes are counted, well have that done. Weve still got two outstanding races in georgia to determine the control of the senate and the committee will keep moving forward doing its work. We have next week social media oversight. I cant wait to have the social media ceos come to the committee and explain themselves about their platform, thats the 17th. I think theres a lot of bipartisan support to take a hard look at social media platform. The act is still business pending before the committee and after the hearing well have markup. But today we have mr. Mccabe, the number two at the fbi during the hurricane. I think hes going to appear remotely, so i appreciate him coming. And what ill do is make a brief Opening Statemen

Id like to associate myself with the comments made by colleague senator durbin and others on the democratic side on why we are here for the fourth time to go over ground covered especially by the Inspector Generals 440 page report. The witness was asked questions about Text Messages between peter strzok and lisa page when its clear they did not impact the validity of the russian investigation. Yet when we have real facts about National Security concerns such as President Trump calling the president of ukraine to shake him down to help his Reelection Campaign, my republican colleagues dont think thats a big deal.
