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.
I might as well just shut this thing off.
A “whistle blower’ should be protect ONLY if they provide credible evidence of corruption.
If they use the whistle blower act to spread rumor and lies they should be fired AND charged with a crime.
Need to target Schiff hard as having untrustable character, and so unfit for intel chair (any chair).
Folks...while you post your pro’s & con’s, your positives, your negatives, your lefts & your rights....just keep in mind....that POTUS, Donald J. Trump has raised over $5,000,000 dollars in less then twenty-four (24) hours
Every time, Butt Wipe, Democrats, Pelosi, Schumer, Schiff, Nadler open their “TRAITOR” yaps...Trumpie pulls in millions of bucks by the day...soon it will be by the hour!!!
Trumpie will soon be known as the POTUS who raised over two (2) Billion Dollars for his re-election campaign.
Geez...I wonder when Pelosi is going to go forward with an “on-the record” Impeach Trump vote in the House!!! Whats-a-matter, no backbone Nancy. Your little speech about Impeach Inquiry the other evening at 5:00 PM (EDT) did nothing whatsoever to change the gig!!! Shucks...AOC and her girl gang is working you like their puppet, rather then their leader. You do not know it yet, Nancy....but , you are just as politically dead as Joe Biden is..period!!!
Yes.
“If we don’t know the identity of the whistle-blower, how do we no it has been discredited”
That how the sleazy Ds operate. Just like Blasey-Ford’s accusation against Kavanaugh. She couldn’t remember the date, the place, or attendees who might have collaborated the setting. So there was NO way to prove K wasn’t there. Without the whistleblower’s identity, same thing. But just like Blasey-Ford, there are a bunch of sleazy D lawyers in the whistleblower’s corner.
Ha, Nunes is slapping them down on procedure.
Yep
How many democrats and republicans ratio are there on this dumbass committee
I’ll wait to hear Andy McCarthy comment on this whole theater.
The DNI head is caught by trying to protect the law for legit whistleblowers while allowing this fake his/her day in court.
Schiffs next move is to bring the whistleblower in but that’s risky. If he can get the House to vote impeach it gives him cover to do that as they will say “ the peoples representatives have a right to hear the background behind this”
A sad day for our nation.
Also disappointed the Reps appear to have left the room.
They should have stayed and supported this guy by their presence...
13-9 or something around that
That’s not a real pic. It that Congresswoman Swalwell??
Been listening on the radio and DNI director is making the Pyschocrats look absolutely silly!
Schiff is going to need therapy.
Why Schiff trying to get Maguire to state an investigation should be conducted. It’s trap, a trigger to get a special counsel.
“whistleblower’s complaint is “credible” and “urgent””
If he said it, I missed it, I thought he said he wasn’t the one to determine that. Of course the stupid dimocraps were saying it constantly.
Did you see the complaint?

I don’t think he had a choice but follow necessary procedures about this.

He is so obsessed with trying to pin down illegal activity. He is not getting the answers he is seeking but instead is putting words into this guy’s mouth.
Maguire is getting pissed with Schiff.
About time.
