Does this mean Monday? (3 days after Thursday)
Monday or Tuesday, depends on if they count Thursday as day one. Given that they did interview him for 5 hrs, my best guess is Tuesday.

This is general oversight hearing (not a “regularly” schedule though), however questions regarding Mueller, Trump/Russia investigation are likely to come up, as well as Hillary Clinton’s impeachment ( sarcasm, of course – but their performance at last week’s hearing surely will give you that impression!).
