Summary
This document, stamped by the House Oversight Committee, appears to be a printout of an article (likely from Heat Street) investigating Matania Kochavi and his companies (AGT, Vocativ, 3iMind). It details the arrest of Vocativ employee Evan Engel during the 2017 Inauguration protests and questions whether Kochavi's companies blur the lines between journalism and surveillance, citing a massive surveillance network in Abu Dhabi. It also notes a financial offer made by Kochavi and Mary Edelman to Bill Clinton to chair Vocativ, which Clinton declined.
