I thought the lack of information meant they aren’t doing anything!

Something close to 1000 interviews by the committee, for one thing. Yesterday, we saw new video footage that had never been seen on TV before. We heard testimony from Bill Barr and Ivanka Trump that was only heard by Committee members and staffers.

Even after the public hearings are done, there will be huge amounts of information that has not been released to the public.

I think that the DOJ will have access to all of that, as well, which may play a role in why grand jury hearings have not been done yet for the principal players in all of this.

The game is still being played. It's not over yet and there are still many plays to run and opportunities to score.

I'm cheering for the home team, myself. It has far better players and a superior game plan.

It's unlikely TFG knew unless Ivanka told him, and she probably didn't.
