9/26: Acting DNI hearing

[Anonymous]

Schiff and Nunes both start strongly. They have read the whistle-blower complaint, and have planned their line of questioning and interpretation for the public.

Maguire declares he is apolitical.

Let me know when McGuire is up.

I guess “strong” is one way you could refer to nunes.

Strong denial of reality...

McGuire would better serve himself if he simply answered the questions without the BS. He should be coming across as a hero for truth and justice.

- We went to the White House first.

So you went to the subject of the complaint first?
In this case, the President is the subject of the complaint.

- I believe everything in this complaint is unprecedented, which is why I forwarded this to you. It just seemed prudent to check with the Executive Branch before I sent it forward.

You went to the Justice Department, Bill Barr, when he was mentioned in the complaint.
