He's a RW hack. I think that came from a stupid Politico headline: "Dan Bongino, George Floyd's brother to testify at House police brutality hearing," which was intended to mean that Dan Bongino and George Floyd's brother were testifying.

Talk about scraping the bottom of the barrel.

BTW, that's ANGELA Underwood-Jacobs. Not to be confused with Rep. Lauren Underwood (D-IL). The only thing these two women have in common is "Underwood."
