One big happy family over at DHS. Hard to tell from this who is right without knowing more about Scott’s policy arguments with Noemendowski–was he objecting to gratuitous Bovino machismo or just moving too slow?

This was the same strained theory he would have come up with watching the news on 1/7/21. Surely the headline here is that after years of motivated investigation Smith didn’t come up with the goods, or anything especially significant, to add to what we already knew. https://t.co/qNO3RGWKZi
