NN) — Former US Special Envoy for Ukraine Kurt Volker plans to appear at his deposition next Thursday in front of three congressional committees, according to a source familiar with his plans.

The source would not say if the White House is seeking to use executive privilege to constrict Volker in terms of what he can say or provide.

Volker's appearance before the Intelligence, Oversight and Reform and Foreign Affairs committees was announced just hours before the news broke Friday evening that he had resigned.

1. There's no privilege to cover up a crime.

Trump cannot hide.

2. I had assumed he'd be behind closed doors, but

“Depositions are generally closed door, but the committees have not clarified if Volker's deposition will be open or closed.”

Yep, FINGERS CROSSED

I’m getting the impression he’s not wild about that WH pack of idiots, and the feeling appears to be mutual, so - let’s DO THIS

3. The suspense is building.

If the WH pulls "executive privilege" the media can spin it as a Nixon redux, try to stop the investigation, first deny tapes exists, then try to hide tapes and oh lordy, Comey there are tapes.
