34. Boom. Even if I thought the fix was in, I'd be unnerved to get any of these letters.

Although these are wealthy people who can pay lawyers to buy time, I'd be losing some sleep. I'd rather the Senate get those documents, though.

There's only one, I think, where the recipient has a chance of gathering all the documents in time. There's not enough time for the others to do that, so don't know what the game plan is on that. They have to respond to those letters by 11/6, to stop a subpoena or sanctions or something.

At least the Senate is moving on its investigation.
