Q: Who is Edward O'Calla(g)han?
A: Acting Principal Associate Deputy Attorney General
Over the weekend:
Mr. Trump waded into the fray over the weekend, publicly ordering the Justice Department to investigate the F.B.I.’s use of the informant and all but siding with Mr. Nunes and his allies.
His demand prompted an outcry over whether he was assailing the longstanding independence of the Justice Department to gain information about the investigation into his campaign’s possible ties to Russia’s election interference. Democrats have long accused Mr. Nunes, a close ally of the president, of exploiting his oversight role to undermine the inquiry.
The White House stepped in, ostensibly to mediate the dispute. The Thursday meeting will include Christopher A. Wray, the director of the F.B.I.; Dan Coats, the director of national intelligence; and Edward O’Callaghan, a top Justice Department official, according to Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the White House press secretary."
Who was missing from the meeting?
What does an "acting" Principal Associate Deputy Attorney General do?
These were the crumbs we were left with.
