Today the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) will hold an open hearing with the current acting Director of National Intelligence (DNI). He is "acting" because he has not yet been Senate confirmed.
You can watch a livestream of the hearing on C-SPAN or here and you can listen on C-SPAN radio via their app.
Committee membership is as follows:
For the majority (Democrats) Chairman Adam Schiff (CA) Jim Himes (CT) Terri Sewell (AL) Andre Carson (IN) Jackie Speier (CA) Mike Quigley (IL) Eric Swalwell (CA) Joaquin Castro (TX) Danny Heck (WA) Pete Welch (VT) Sean Patrick Maloney (NY) Val Demmings (FL) Raj Krishnamoorthi (IL)
For the minority (Republicans) Ranking member Devin YoMama Nunes (CA) Mike Conaway (TX) Mike Turner (OH) Brad Wenstrup (OH) Chris Stewart (UT) Rick Crawford (AK) Elise Stefanik (NY) Will Hurd (TX) John Ratcliffe (TX)
Buckle up! Adam Schiff is coming and he doesn't play.

*waits impatiently for the GOP response/ excuses*
Already seeing that none of this is true, since the whistleblower wasn’t present for the phone calls.

oh, just a note to anyone who doesn't usually read our live blogs in here, my general rule is to use quotation marks when I'm direct quoting, but if somethign is not in quotes it is paraphrasing or sometimes just general riffing as I become increasingly agitated by Nonsense
