First, after his security clearance was revoked, john brennan made his strongest statements yet about Trump Campaign collusion with the russian government in a New York Times op ed piece. He wrote mr. Trumps claims of no collusion are in a word hogwash.

And the Senate Judiciary committee can do exactly the same thing. And that is what they did with anita hill when the confirmation hearing was over, Clarence Thomas hearing was over and it was reopened because of this dramatic new information. And orin hatch is pretending tonight that theres some kind of schedule, some kind of thing that prevents them from reopening any of this on the Senate Judiciary committee, and that is simply not true. There is no time limit. They can take the rest of the year if they wanted to. But youre going it hear a lot of that that its over and times up, and time is never up on the confirmation process.
