16. Show us how much money is being spent on any purported ongoing investigation

Tue Nov 18, 2025, 06:27 PM

20 hrs ago

I want employee counts, time spent, which pages they are working on, everything that might otherwise be used by a law firm to justify its billing.
I thought all investigations had been stopped in January. *IF* there's ongoing one (that wasn't just started by Rump into supposed dem transgressions, which is also OK but only the investigation into the current powers that be are of any relevance here), I want proof (as will the court, if it's anywhere close to maintaining its integrity).
