Makes you wonder how in depth these meetings get, because that is my worry here too. Joe is 80 and can remember talking points, but he can’t remember every time they have to tell him, “Remember Joe, you can’t repeat this conversation”
"Have you, or anyone you know, been in discussions within the administration, or affiliated parties, that involve the use of military or paramilitary assets and/or personnel against the citizens of the United States?"
make it out of the blue, since the prepared responses would be on other topics.
