Heinrich: I don't care how you felt, I'm simply asking you, 'Did that conversation occur?'
Coats won't comment.
Heinrich: Do you realize how simple it would be to just say "No, it never happened?"
Coats bumbles.
Heinrich: You seem to apply your unwillingness quite selectively. Your unwillingness to answer this question speaks volumes.

Coats: It's not for me to discuss my conversations with POTUS, but the investigation by special counsel will bring this information to the public attention

interesting. Roy Blunt asked if McCabe stands by earlier assertion that nothing had impeded the Russia investigation. McCabe clarifies that he said *the firing of Comey* did not impede the investigation

Blunt is trying to corner McCabe into saying that Nothing has impeded the RUssia investigation, but he's mincing words

Republicans really want someone to say that the Obama administration was on a surveillance and unmasking bonanza.

McCabe is being dumb. Didn't they have to speak with Mueller before testifying here? I know Comey did

Angus King is going in on them not answering because it wouldn't be "appropriate" and not on a legal basis.

King: Why does the special counsel get deference and not [SSCI]? Is there some legal basis for this?

"What is classified about a conversation about whether or not you should intervene in an FBI investigation?"

.....as long as WH Counsel doesn't instruct him that Executive privilege is being invoked What is this? You either invoke the privilege in advance or not. Saying "we're not sure if he's going to invoke or not so we're not saying anything" is a bunch of fucking bullshit.

Warner is stating that Mueller hasn't told anyone of them to not answer yet. So they should answer.
