While I did my update last night, it brought back memories.  If you are a Washingtonian, you know that the city clears out in August to coincide with the Congressional recess.

GAO knows it too.  Take a look at the number of GAO reports released on September 5, 2018--last night.  Nothing sinister, they just don't want to issue a report to a near empty Congress.  So they wait until Congress reconvenes in September.

The protests are different.  GAO is up against a day limit that is set in law.

I thought Recess was cancelled this year?
