Ladies and gentlemen, it has begun. Now, apparently the story actually is a bit old. This is actually

maybe two, maybe about a month and a half ago. Cash Patel, the FBI, released the crossfire hurricane

documents to the GOP, but this is a large trove of documents. Now, what is that? Oh, boy,

this is a complicated story. For those that are not familiar, this was the operation by the DOJ against Donald Trump, what I would effectively call with air quotes a coup.

multiple felonies? And this now coming from Chuck Grassley's

office. It was only after Cash Patel got in that he released these documents. And in an interview

with Brett Bear on Fox News, he says if he found documents, he didn't even know existed,
