I am not sure of the source of this, but it appears to be a transcript of Rep Weldon speaking to reporters, with all sorts of hints of what is to come: We’ve identified the woman at the FBI who set those three meetings up. She will testify under oath at the Senate hearing next […]

Interesting how much of a chess game is being played around this story this weekend in the news media. Weldon must be up against some big guns to be (a) challenged by the 9-11 Commission so brazenly and (b) to keep coming out with ever more stunning claims (which I am now betting he can […]

It’s a total denial of the facts,” said the Pennsylvania Republican. He also hints at some of the witnesses for next week’s hearings (during which, […]

Eric at Redstate has a post up hinting Judge Edith Jones is on the short list of candidates to fill O’Connor’s seat.
