likely reading like matt over the holidays. and looking for a number of things. one is comparing witness statements with their own witness statements. they probably have not interviewed as many witnesses have the committee did. some 1200 witnesses. no doubt there is some overlap. they want to compare. that did their witnesses tell the same story that they told the committee. that will be important. i think we ll be looking for leads the same way we just discussed with cassidy hutchinson. are there other people who are able to share observations that can lead them to firsthand witnesses or other evidence that they have the ability to get. such as phone records with search warrants. finally, looking for people to flip. who were the people they can charged with a crime. induce their cooperation in exchange for a reduction in sentence and work their way up the chain. there may be people like john eastman or jeffrey clark whose phones doj has already obtained. looking to see what their role
