Secret service, there was something going on. Now, those of us that are spend a lot of time at the white house know that lockdowns at the white house are relatively routine. Even fence jumpers happen, you know, three, four times a year. It is an event, but not a particularly remarkable one. But there seem to be there seem to be something a level of alarm that the secret service was displaying that suggested that this may have been a little bit something out of the ordinary. I headed into into the press area of the white house which is sort of at the entrance to the west wing for those of you who havent spent a lot of time there to try and figure out if i could figure out what was going on. And nobody had any they said no, everythings fine we would have gotten an email if something happened. If something happened. Right about that Moment Secret Service agents came stormed in from the west wing with these really large, like semiautomatic weapons that, you know, youve seen the secret Serv
Security will come to order. The pur o pos of this hearing is to receive testimony regarding the immigrant Investor Program known as the eb5 program. I now recognize myself for an Opening Statement. On march 24th the department of Homeland Security Inspector General released a report detailing allegations against deputy secretary mayorkas that relate to his time as director of uscis and his oversight of the eb5 program. The igs Office Conducted more than 50 interviews, reviewed more than 40,000 phone records and obtained more than 1 million documents and emails. This investigation was unprecedented in that there were more than a dozen whistle blowers that came forward to the Inspector Generals office.

Tenant ill show you here. Indicates that the proposed sales price of the various price is unit one 750,000 and my clients 8 how thousands and going up.
