Today's letter to my congressman.

Dear Congressman,
The point of this message is to urge you to use your seat on the House Judiciary Committee to investigate the partisan hackery that appears to be rampant within the Department of Justice.

As I pointed out in my last email, Kash Patel appears to have lied to your face during his statements regarding Mr. Trump's name being mentioned in the Epstein Files. I hope you will avail yourself to demand Mr. Patel clarify his remarks, and apologize if warranted.

Additionally, I'd like to draw your attention the the testimony by Lindsey Halligan today in the DOJ prosecution of James Comey. Halligan testified that she did not present to the entire grand jury the indictment that she presented to the court itself.

I'm not writing to defend James Comey - he's awful, and remains awful. I'm writing because 1) it seems like the Department of Justice (Comey, Patel) is making a habit of misleading the Congress, and 2) the current crop of DOJ lawyers - specifically Ms. Halligan - are inept at doing their jobs.

Fixing these two problems are exactly what your Committee is tasked with fixing. Please step up your efforts.

Finally, let me thank you for changing your vote to support the release of the Epstein Files. I'd glad that Mr. Trump's fit of pique was able to assuage your valid and thoughtful concerns about the privacy of Epstein's victims.

Regards,
