NEW: Watchdog Refuses to Detail #WhistleBlower Complaint About #Trump. In closed meeting w/ House lawmakers, IG wouldn't confirm—or deny—an alarming commitment Trump was said to have made to a world leader nytimes.com/2019/09/19/us/… #NationalSecurity
If Trump didn't make an alarming promise, why is the IG withholding the #whistleblower complaint from Congress? Fact is: Trump has a well-documented pattern of reckless abuse of power putting his financial & political interests above US national security. (Yesterday's THREAD⤵️😱)
🔥Schiff: There is no privilege to conceal #whistleblower report or to be corrupt. Someone above DNI is trying to manipulate the system to keep an urgent matter from Congress. Privilege claim indicates POTUS & WH are involved. We know DOJ is involved. The problem isn’t the law. 
🚨CNN confirms Barr’s DOJ and Trump’s WH directed Acting DNI intel chief to withhold from Congress a #Whistleblower complaint about a reported alarming and urgent abuse of power by Trump himself, involving a promise/commitment he made to a foreign leader. Just brazen lawlessness.
