The Hill ^ | 09/26/19 | Staff

Posted on 09/26/2019 5:38:03 AM PDT by yesthatjallen

Acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire is set to testify Thursday morning before the House Intelligence Committee about a whistleblower's complaint that helped trigger a formal impeachment inquiry against President Trump.

The Hill will be providing updates as the hearing unfolds beginning at 9 a.m.

Halls are packed nearly two hours before hearing

7:30 a.m.

Press cameras lined the hallways more than two hours before the high stakes hearing was set to begin.

Members of the public also began forming lines hours beforehand in the hopes they could hear Maguire speak about his handling of the whistleblower complaint.

Muting it again - Schiff’s lips are moving. Can’t stomach his nauseation.

The more I hear, the more I am convinced this is a non-serious credible partisan political attack, credible in that we can conform this is a political hit job by this mole.

This is a DOUBLE NOTHING-BURGER.

Trump is not losing a SINGLE vote because of this.

If we don’t know the identity of the whistle-blower, how do we no it has been discredited?

The IG is in the tank for taking down Trump.

He never should have gone past the chain of command, on a whistle-blower that had proven political biases.

Another made up take-down, of a President, by self-righteous Govt employees, in collusion with the Socialists.

Rush already made the excellent point yesterday, that this Whistleblower's testimony was a big fat nothing burger because the transcript was already released!

Well, now we’ve got the transcript and now the whistleblower is irrelevant. The whistleblower’s testimony doesn’t matter. What does matter about the whistleblower is who the hell it is and what kind of punishment are they going to face. But with the release of the transcript we now know more than the whistleblower. The whistleblower can’t add anything. The whistleblower is behind the curve.

Mole? This is a conspiracy of many perps. Look how fast the IC IG moved. Look how slow the GOP Senate moves. The Uniparty wants POTUS distracted and the nation exhausted from beltway drama. That’s there formula for beating Trump in 2020.

Rush did far better explaining this than the GOP did today. Nunes tip toed through the tulips while Schiff dropped bombs.

Geez, a rumbling tummy after eating at the taco truck is more urgent than this. “Urgent” is their talking point.

Exactly. They are the only one claiming it’s credible.

That’s EXACTLY where I am at. We’ve waited years to hear from Horowitz and the IC IG moves in WEEKS? This reeks.

What occurs to me is how quickly the Democrats and the media can change the definitions of things to suit their own goals.

It used to be that firing a prosecutor was considered to be Obstruction of Justice- when Trump was considering it. But when Biden actually did it and bragged about it, they say it was a good thing to do.

And when Trump was being investigated while a candidate for office, it was for the sake of national security- but when Trump asks to have an investigation about possible corruption of another candidate, they consider to be interfering with an election.

Agreed, this mole knew at least a handful of other Obama holdovers to conspire with and ran to a Hillary lawyer to write up his complaint. Yes, there are many moles in the WH and this will expose some more of them.

Bet there wasn’t any whistle blower but just a bunch of demonrats out to do evil. Of course, they’ll find one to be the fall guy.

This guy is weak. How weak? -Eric Swalwell is kicking his ass- weak. At least he emphasized it’s an allegation.
