He is, however, the Ranking Member of a sub-committee of the Armed Services Committee. And he did not specify what committee he was ranking member of under his signature. Very tricky. I would call it clever if he wasn't a republican.

It's sort of like calling Kevin McCarthy "Leader" without specifying he is the Minority Leader, which I've heard Journalists do often.
