Hank LedgerThat was a heavy one.
Hank LedgerMoving on to a different courtroom fight: President Trump has formally invoked executive privilege to keep certain records from a Democratic congresswoman who sits on the Kennedy Center board.
Dale BearmanExecutive privilege, over a theater. That's the shield for nuclear codes, and now it's guarding what I can only assume is the seating chart.
Brock ThundersonLet me finish, because I've seen a front like this before.
Brock ThundersonWhenever a board member asks for paperwork and gets a presidential shield back, there's a storm system building over the lobby, and I've named it Gerald.
Hank LedgerShe's a board member asking for records. That's the whole story.
Dale BearmanIs it, Hank?
Dale BearmanBecause if the records are that dangerous, then somebody has been sitting in the wrong row for years, and the cover-up goes all the way to the orchestra pit.

Dale BearmanClearance level, top secret. Two cookies and a program, and you've already seen too much.
Brock ThundersonCan I just say, I'd testify. I'd tell them everything I know about the coat check.
