Department politicized or looked into any plea deal, and they want to testify in a few months and ask those questions burk as a former prosecutor, often there can be disagreements as to what agents want to do and the prosecutors want to do, but again, it is the kind of thing they can hammer out in a c congressional hearing and if it is a fair one and not a political one. and then over on the donald trump side of things with the actions trying to overturn the election, and there is a grand jury meeting and possible third indictment, and what does the grand jury say to someone like you or someone like me, and how close to approaching this process? we have been close 11 days ago when donald trump received a letter that he could be charged with a crime. so the mere fact that they are meeting for the first time this week is significant that an ....
