You are right, sir. History was made today and is the beginning of flood of light on the tRump presidency. Mueller will bring the floodlights but you, Mr. Cummings, opened the door. We owe you our eternal gratitude.

Please go home tonight and get some rest. We know you are tired and sick with a cold. Take care of yourself! Put your feet up, loosen your tie and relax. You deserve it!
