John / Chris:

Thanks for your time on the call.  As discussed, the White House will
now excuse itself from the process unless/until you ask us to re-engage
for any reason.

You're in good hands.  Brian Benczkowski (cc'd) and the DOJ/FBI team are
committed to making sure the process is efficient and confidential.

Best,

Blake
