Important for americans to hear. But on page one, and im not going to improvise for purposes like the chairman of this committee did, im going to quote directly. On page one, the complaint reads i was not a direct witness to most of the events described. Like a very important like to look into and i think the American Public love questions in particular about that line. My question to you is, for the record, the dig fully investigate the allegations into this complaint at this time . Has the ig fully investigated the allegations of the complaint . Earlier, i believe that the Intelligence Committee Inspector General did a thorough investigation of the 40 day timeframe that he had, and under that time to the best of his ability made a determination that it was both credible and urgent.
