So that transcript shows how a judge lies. They make a statement and tell you to sit down so you can’t get your objection on the record. Or you can and have a really bad day in Court.
But the Judge’s lie is that a totally new, created at that moment, indictment was just presented to the foreman. That is a lie. And the grand jury record shows it and the Magistrate knows that.

Yup, Flip.
RC, it's as I said.
CNN did say this
“Halligan appeared frustrated as she confirmed that only the foreperson and one other juror – not the entire grand jury – saw the final indictment. In the brief exchange, she tried to answer the judge before he finished asking his question and concluded the exchange with a terse “OK.”
I can see why the press ran it the way they did especially given what Lemons said but Chad Gilmartin ,who is DOJ public affairs ,appears to be right

FACT CHECK: At no time during yesterday’s hearing did US Attorney Halligan say that the entire grand jury didn’t see the 2 count indictment
