This clearance thing is kind of interesting with jar jar and princess. Where oversight is supposed to be the land the Congress, I don't know if they have any actual jurisdiction here. I think I know this, we're about to find out

Sherrod Brown is not running for President. That’s good because it keeps him in the Senate, but I do like the guy.
