Azar, secretary of housing and urban development, ben carson, who are the way, was fantastic over that weekend in various interviews you did, then, really good job, i appreciate it. Secretary of veterans affairs, robert wilkie, administrator seema verma, chief postal inspector of the United States postal infection inspection service, gary barstow, and he has done a great job especially spotting drugs come into our country. My administration is working tirelessly to stop the depraved criminals who seek to defraud american seniors of which there are many but we are doing a very strong number on a lot of them. And nobody has ever done what we have done. Three month ago we have launched the National Elder fraud hotline , which has already received 1800 calls. In three years we have charged 1000 defendants involving 2. 2 billion in fraud against our seniors and this afternoon the doj has announced a 2 million grant to help enforcement identify victims and bring lawbreakers to justice.

Michael horowitz testified about his report on the investigation of the 20 16th president ial campaign. He took questions from members of the Senate Homeland security and Government Affairs security. I want to thank you for all your hard work in preparing the report. Praise he receive is well deserved and i share those sentiments. This report is an important step in providing the important answers to the questions that have festered for far too long. As thorough as this report is, its scope is also narrow.

You start a counterintelligence investigation and the checks and balances that we need. Mr. We return now to the hearing on the fbi russia inquiry. Underlying problem, the system in the hands of a few bad people can do a lot of damage. Thank you very much. Thank you, mr. Chairman. I assume there is no time limit. Take all the time you need. Well, i wont take a long time, but ive been reading these reports, ladies and gentlemen now, for 25 years. And i have great appreciation for this Inspector General. I just want to make those personal remarks. This is a tough arena, and as you can see, there are very tough people that are part of that arena, but to have an Inspector General who tells its as they see it and does this year after year is a saving grace, and i hope people will get this report. If i have a grievance, it is that the print is too small. I agree with that. Thank you very much. And it is heavy to carry around. But last year this Inspector General pledged to congress that he w

Although the ig concluded the investigation was properly initiating, consensual monitoring of Trump Ca
