Since Issa had the letter, my guess is Cummings quietly gave it to him. How else would he have gotten it?

Morning thought: The dropping of the letter was just a shot across the bow. Issa has much more. He will drip drip drip it to keep it in the news. If WithHolder and 0 don’t want it made public they can resign like Nixon. Did anyone else notice the phrase that Eric said following the letter drop echoed WJC’s “I must get back to the people’s business”?

Not a criticism, just an observation. Your first point has Cummings giving Issa the letter. Your second point belies that in implying Issa has much more. If that’s the case, there’s no reason to believe Cummings may have given Issa the letter. It’s more logical the letter came from elsewhere.

We know there are whistleblowers. It’s also possible (perhaps probable) there are many more than we know of, or other sources we’re unaware of. In a scandal of this magnitude, it’s not hard to believe people are scrambling to get above the fray, and one of the best ways to do that is to “come clean” and cooperate. Let the real scumbags take the fall.

Ole Eric is setting up the political line to claim that Republican investigations won’t permit him to protect the country from terrorists and crime. Clinton did this, too. When something happens, it will be the Republicans’ fault for taking DOJ’s eye off the ball.
