Sorry if I missed it, but has anyone looked at whether Jason V. Herring is related to Mark Herring, the Lt. Gov. in Virginia?
Sorry, not Lt. Gov. AG Herring in VA.
Devin Nunes on Hannity talking about criminal referrals they plan to submit for people who lied to Congress.
FISA abuse, Nunes says the FISA judges should hold wrong doers accountable, but the house GOP on the committee plan to give the information they’ve collected to new AG.

I looked earlier for other info about Jason, but was unable to find very much that was solid. It is a good question, generally. Perhaps this is an apple that will fall on us soon.
FWIW I did find this about Mark, AG:

4. Herring Was Raised by a Single Mother & Worked His Way Through College
Herring spent most of his childhood in Loudoun County, Virginia. He was born in Johnson City, Tennessee, in the Appalachian Mountains. His mother, who was originally from Memphis, worked as a flight attendant for American Airlines but left her job when she married Herring’s father. The couple got divorced when Herring was young, and he, his mother, and his sister moved to Loudoun County.
Herring later said he remembered seeing his mother’s struggles, as a single parent raising a family. “I remember seeing how she struggled with some of the hardships raising my sister and I,” he told Richmond’s Style Weekly.
AS A YOUNG MAN, HERRING WORKED TO PAY HIS WAY THROUGH COLLEGE, TAKING ON CONSTRUCTION JOBS AND ODD JOBS. HERRING SAYS THAT, AS ATTORNEY GENERAL, HIS PRIORITIES ARE CRACKING DOWN ON HEROIN DEALERS, AND GOING AFTER VIOLENT GANG MEMBERS, GUN RUNNERS, AND HUMAN TRAFFICKERS.
Herring also says he’s proud of his office’s work reducing Virginia’s backlog of untested rape kits. And he points to his work on the opiod crisis, where he pushed for easier access to the overdose treatment drug naloxone, as another success for his office.
5. Herring Is Married & Has Two Grown Children
Mark Herring has been married to his wife, Laura, for 27 years; they met the summer before he began law school. Laura works as a middle school teacher in Loudoun County. The couple has two children: a 24 year old daughter, Peyton, and a 21 year old son, Tim. They have an apartment in Richmond and a house in Leesburg, Virginia. They are members of Leesburg Presbyterian Church.
