Maybe someone will ask about this:

In a rebuke to Trump, the Senate Banking Committee approved an amendment by an overwhelming 23-2 vote that would block Trump from easing sanctions on China's ZTE without first certifying to Congress that the company is complying with U.S. laws. https://t.co/vs2m98WymA

I’m going to bet my lunch money that we will be treated with a letter from a child…

"Hi Mr. President. I have a hamster that I named Trump. He’s fat and orange and silly. Just like you!

I want to thank you for rolling back environmental protections. I think tumors are cool and breathing is boring. When I’m grown up, I want my kids to have asthma and heavy metal poisoning. Then they will live like the Mole People to avoid the dangers of the surface world. It will be a super awesome movie.

Your friend,
Dylan"

Democratic leadership has not requested the information so they will not be invited to this meeting with Nunes and Gowdy about DOJ materials.

It’s their fault!

U.S. President Donald Trump pledged on Sunday to help ZTE Corp. “get back into business, fast” after a U.S. ban crippled the Chinese technology company, offering a job-saving concession to Beijing ahead of high-stakes trade talks this week.

Trump’s unexpected announcement was a stunning reversal, given Washington’s tough stance on Chinese trade practices that have put the world’s two largest economies on course for a possible trade war.

Sources briefed on the matter said Beijing had demanded the ZTE issue be resolved as a prerequisite for broader trade negotiations.

“Too many jobs in China lost. Commerce Department has been instructed to get it done!” Trump wrote on Twitter, saying he and Chinese President Xi Jinping were working together on a solution for ZTE.

 President Donald Trump said Tuesday that there is no deal to save Chinese company ZTE, which is facing heavy fines and sanctions in the United States. 

Trump told reporters that he is doing Chinese President Xi Jinping a favor by looking into how to breathe life back into the company that the Commerce Department has effectively shut down.  


"President Xi and I have a great relationship, but there is no deal," Trump said at the White House. 
"We will see what happens. We are discussing deals. We’re discussing various deals."

Only saw the tweet, sorry.

“But Sarah, the President and Secretary Pompeo made clear that this plan would be foolish without denuclearizion. Is there any guarantees that Kim will fulfill his part of the agreement?”

Who am I kidding here? They would never ask this followup.

None of the articles have it; nobody seems to be talking. Who knows why.
