Nunes, this administration is a damn sieve. How many leaks have occurred? Dozens?

He is not letting the leaking thing go.
Bruh. C'mon.
The issue is that the orange shitstain in the white house is jeopardizing our national security.
For folks who scream all day err day about national security and border walls, you'd think they'd be more concerned about, ya know, THAT.

Himes is slapping down Nunes' whooooooole argument like he's Serena Williams.
THe IC IG did the right thing by coming to our committee and we SHOULD be talking about this in public bc it's a national security problem.

Himes: Who decided to defy the subpoena for the WB complaint?
Maguire: nobody did, I tried to work with the committee and OLC to work through the issue of Executive Privilege

Side note: I’m very much looking forward to John Oliver this weekend. I hope he uses the “We got him!” button repeatedly.

Schiff should jump in here and corroborate what Maguire is saying about them working closely together to turn over the documents under subpoena

Himes: So you don't deny it then?
Maguire: Yeah I'm not gonna confirm or deny that but good try!
JH: Did the Wh instruct you to claim privilege?
JM: uh, no

Mike Conaway: the IC IG did not try to override Executive Privilege to get the content of the phone call and he said that the complaint "appeared credible" which is not the same thing as "is credible."
Oh.

I'm still confused as to where DNI went first.
He's interchanged OLC and White House a bit

Maguire: the complaint and the IG report were forwarded to OLC
soooo there's absolutely no way it didn't immediately land on Bill Barr's desk

Sewell: I'm most concerned about the chilling effect this whole circus will have on potential future whistleblowers. Why the damn hell did the White House and the AG get to weigh in at all???!
Maguire: I think that's fair, I don't disagree. I've tried my best to do everything carefully and to protect the WB

GDI I want to play in real time but I've blown so much time all week! I'll watch and catch up on the thread when I can.
May the odds be ever in our favor!

Sewell: did you appropriately direct the WB of his or her rights, including that he or she CAN come forward to Congress on his or her own?
Maguire: I don't know who the WB is but we are working closely with his counsel
TS: Can you confirm that the WB can himself come talk to the committee with the full protections of the WB Act?
JM: I'm actively working with the Chairman, and with the WB's counsel right now
