I hope whatever the agents say in dispute doesn't tank her whole testimony. Seems like the committee should have interviewed them before letting Hutchison testify to it. Unless they weren't cooperating and this is how to get them out in public. Which, if her account is mostly accurate, could be good I suppose. But if she exaggerated what happened at all, it kind of taints everything else, no?
