At the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Kash Patel's nomination for FBI Director, Senator Schiff reads back Patel's testimony that he "did not have anything to do with the recording." Schiff then plays what Patel told Steve Bannon's War Room: "we went to a studio and recorded it, mastered it, digitized it and put it out as a song" with Donald Trump reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. Schiff asks why Patel told Bannon's listeners he did it if he had nothing to do with it.
