briefing giving the time of the intel committee staffers. we anticipate a fuller briefing shortly from my committee, the intel committee, and i m sure armed services. do you know when that will be happening? james mattis the defense secretary is going to sit down with john mccain today. when do you think you will all be fully briefed even in the classified setting? you know, i suspect it will probably be in the coming week when we re back in washington, d.c. i suspect still it will be cur sorry because this investigation will take some time and there will be multiple investigations within the department of defense, as there are in all such instances, such as the yemen raid, which unfortunately was a tragedy of equal proportions. so i suspect we ll get a curse sorry briefing to some extent next week, and continued briefings as d.o.d. learns more and hopefully sharing this
