While the rest of the 'free' world will likely be glued to their screens to wait for the "smoking gun" during former FBI Director Jim Comey's testimony on Thursday, AP reports that President Donald Trump appears unphased - scheduling a speech addressing religious conservatives at the same time as Comey speaks.
Comey is scheduled to testify Thursday before the Senate intelligence committee beginning at 17:00 local time.
His appearance will mark Comey's first public comments since he was abruptly fired by the president last month.
Other speakers expected to address the Faith and Freedom event are Vice President Mike Pence, House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.
Additionally, and perhaps not surprisingly, President Trump will be busy doing something else.
