accountability issues and something that is actually in the public interest. i do want to note and this is -- all of this unprecedented activity took place under former-president trump. the biden-justice department continued one of these gags and that was in relation to my colleagues. and so, i do think there is a lot of work that has to be done. in looking at what happens, across the board, with doj. and how it is approaching this information gathering. we know that president biden has taken a very strong, public position. the white house has taken a strong-public position that they are not going to do that but i think it's going to take a while to restore faith. just given all of the collective actions of the last-five years. >> there is an issue of prosecutorial discretion among career prosecutors that's very real and worth exploring. and i think we all need to learn a lot more about it. gloria, maggie, thank you both so much for being with us tonight. house intel chairman, adam schiff briefed the committee today. joining us now, a member of that committee. democrat jim himes of connecticut who says he does not believe he was targeted by the trump investigation. so, congratulations, on that front, congressman. i know you can't tell us much about what happened in this
