This is breaking right now. I tuned in mid-report so I don't know if it will be an open or closed hearing, but I'm assuming closed.

White House and fat Billy Barr know what it is - more and more Congress is being shit on day by day.
Maybe the whistleblower should come forward and just fucking let it fly. We need to know what this is. I am so sick of this shit.

(7,947 posts)This story becomes more interesting when we think about this whistleblower complaint. (Also remember that some insiders thought that Coats was the "Anonymous Staffer" who wrote that "adults in the room" editorial basically calling Trump a moron.)
The country's No. 2 intelligence official, Sue Gordon, knew it was likely she would have to eventually step down from her post, but the timing of that decision became more urgent on Thursday after her boss -- outgoing spy chief Dan Coats -- interrupted a meeting she was holding on election security and asked his deputy to submit her letter of resignation, sources familiar with the events told CNN.

I wonder if the IG will defy an order from Trump to not show up? At some point, someone will testify despite orders from the WH.
