Acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire agrees to testify before the House Intelligence Committee after initially refusing to testify and hand over a whistleblower complaint
Washington President Donald Trump's communications with a foreign leader, which included a"promise," sparked the whistleblower complaint that has led the acting director of national intelligence to agree to testify amid a showdown with Congress, The Washington Post reported Wednesday.
The Post reported that an official in the American intelligence community was so bothered by a"promise" Trump made to a foreign leader that the official filed a formal whistleblower complaint with the inspector general of the intelligence community, according to two former US officials familiar with the matter. It's unknown which leader Trump was speaking to and it's the first time his direct involvement in the complaint has been reported, according to the Post.
