The man investigating the missing weapons.

Oh, he's like a private eye, a detective? Cool!

“This bad spending, etc. out of DOD was under the guidance of one David Norquist, yes, brother of Grover Norquist, WH top advisor on immigration, trade, muslim affairs, etc. . After he fouled that up, he was appointed by Pres. Bush to the job of head financial officer of Homeland Security.
