U.S. lawmakers to grill President Donald Trump’s top intelligence official about whistleblower report by ReutersZengerle
WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump’s top intelligence official will be grilled by U.S. lawmakers on Thursday over the administration’s handling of a whistleblower report central to an impeachment inquiry into the president.
The Senate passed a resolution calling for the report’s release by unanimous voice vote on Tuesday. The House passed a similar measure by 421-0, with two Republicans voting “present,” on Wednesday even after the administration backed down and agreed to let the Senate and House intelligence committee members view the classified report in secure rooms on Capitol Hill.
There is no evidence that Biden, or his son Hunter Biden, who served on the board of a Ukrainian company, acted improperly. Maguire may also face questions about a report in the Washington Post on Wednesday that he had threatened to resign over concerns that the White House might press him to withhold information from lawmakers. Maguire, the former director of the National Center for Counterterrorism, issued a statement denying that report.
