“We cleared the documents last night shortly after Senator Booker’s staff asked us to,” William Burck, a lawyer working for former President George W. Bush told the New York Times.

“We were surprised to learn about Sen. Booker’s histrionics this morning because we had already told him he could use the documents publicly.

In fact, we have said yes to every request made by the Senate Democrats to make documents public,” he added.

“Apparently, someone just wanted to break the rules and make a scene, but didn’t check their email,” a spokesman for committee Republicans said in a statement.

“All of this drama this morning apparently was for nothing and it’s unfortunate,” Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, told reporters.
