Well, Joy, good to be with you. And, look, I did an op-ed a few months ago, where I said, bring back Shane (ph), because we know that white supremacist have always been amongst us, which is sad enough in itself. But there used to be a time when certainly members of Congress didn`t really want everybody to know it. But, you know, we know them by the fruit that they bear. We also know what happened on January 6th, although we`ve been asked to not believe our eyes and our ears. This is a sad day. It`s a sad reminder of what happened six months ago. And regardless of members of Congress who are white supremacist or choose to hang out with them, regardless of those who helped to plan or give tours or helped to incite, we are going to get to the bottom of it. And I am so glad that the speaker has empanelled this elect committee. We are going to get to the bottom of it.
