they don't want to return the Jim Comey memo that was up-classified after he sent it to Richman in 2017 because it is now classified, and they don't want Pam Bondi to make promises herself (which is different from Todd Blanche doing so).

In the fast-moving world of AI, if it takes 18 months . . . I no longer need that company, their model is already obsolete.

The Pentagon Inspector General's inquiry into Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth now includes an investigation into a second chat and the unauthorized transfer of classified information.
