I have received the Committee's Notice of a Hearing in the House Judiciary Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government for Thursday, March 30, 2023 at 9am. This hearing has been publicly noticed without a subjectmatter or witnesses.
In light of this, as Ranking Member, I request you call the three individuals who have already sat for transcribed interviews with the staff of the Select Subcommittee to be witnesses at this hearing.
I request that you present retired FBI Supervisory Intelligence Analyst GeorgeHill, suspended FBI Special Agent Garret O'Boyle and former FBI Special Agent Stephen Friend at the hearing next week.

Overwhelmed, the Danish colonial Governor Peter von Scholten declared “all unfree in the Danish West Indies are from today free.”
“Just as the President spent months spreading his big lie of the election, he spent months cultivating groups of people who - following his commands - repeatedly engaged in real, dangerous, violence”
