we have people that say there was. we haven t had a denial for d.o.j. or the fbi. the other question is, congress should have been briefed at the time on an ongoing investigation like, this especially something seriously the russians running bribery schemes. if this is true and congress wasn t briefed, this is another black eye for our intelligence agencies that looked like they had been weaponized by the democratic party. neil: we ll watch closely. chairman, thanks very much. thanks, neil. neil: the read from the rnc, ronna mcdaniel, next. where s gary? saved money on motorcycle insurance with geico. goin up the country. later, gary i have a motorcycle! wonderful. i m goin up the country, baby don t you wanna go?
