This document is a newspaper clipping, likely from The New York Times, dated March 14, 2018, discussing a major cabinet reshuffle in the Trump administration. It details the firing of Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and his replacement by CIA Director Mike Pompeo, as well as the nomination of Gina Haspel to lead the CIA, highlighting her controversial past running a secret prison in Thailand. The document bears a 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT' Bates stamp, suggesting it was included in a document production for a congressional investigation, though the text itself contains no mention of Jeffrey Epstein.
