I think maybe Raj is trying to suggest Coats or Gordon are the whistleblower and Maguire is insisting that neither of them could have had ANY idea this was coming If this was the West Wing, it would be Bolton.

Krishnamoorthi: You don't know the identity or political affiliation of the WB correct? Maguire: I do not RK: Do you have any reason to believe that the WB was acting with bias JM: I believe that the WB is acting in good faith So question about this because DOJ seemed to think they knew that the WB was anti-Trump (or said that they did). Does DOJ know who the whistleblower is?

Operating on the info I have at this second I believe the IC IG said something to the effect of the WB may have some political bias against the president but he did not believe the WB acted WITH bias

Schiff is coming back with the text of the law saying that the WB has to be in the IC, not the subject of the complaint

I was worried that DOJ was either making up some BS or investigating the WB on the WH's behalf. But if that was info that was relayed by the IG, I at least feel a bit better about it.

Schiff: Under the argument you use to suggest the IC IG doesn't have jurisdiction, NO IG would have jurisdiction. So how does that legal interpretation NOT place the president above the law?

Schiff: regardless of whether this was the president conducting foreign policy, he was STILL SEEKING FOREIGN HELP in an election! The fact that he was extorting a vulnerable nation to get it makes it all the more pernicious

His tap dancing around answering Schiff's questions is just weird at this point. Anyone who has served this country as long as this guy has should be willing to stand up and say, "Yeah, the president using his office to extort a foreign leader to help him win an election is REALLY REALLY BAD"
