Summary
Popok reports on embattled Commerce Sec Howard Lutnick looking like he was greasing the skids and encouraging that only softball questions be thrown his way by the Republicans on the House Oversight Committee by making a well-timed $5 million personal donation to the House Republicans main Super PAC while he was negotiating to appear for testimony about his Epstein connections. And your jaw will hit the table when you see who originally said was his "Employer" and "Title" (hint: It's Not Commerce Secretary!)
