Per the whistleblower's complaint, White House Counsel lawyers directed WH officials to 'hide' records of Trump’s call with Zelensky. Knowing this, the first office DNI Maguire consulted regarding the whistleblower's complaint was ... the White House Counsel's office.
"...'not the first time' under this Admin that a Presidential transcript was place into this codeword-level system solely for the purpose of protecting politically sensitive–rather than national security sensitive–information.”
.@RepSwalwell: As DNI, wouldn't you want to know if Trump had also improperly moved transcripts of his calls with Putin or MBS to a secret, secure location?

Maguire: How the Trump/WH conducts their business, is their business.

S: No, it's your business.
@RepSwalwell Congress needs to see ALL of the improperly moved transcripts of Trump's calls with Putin, MBS, and other autocrats to whom Trump is beholden.

Just 2 weeks after then-US Amb Marie Yovanovitch [who Trump disparaged to Zelensky] was abruptly and inexplicably recalled from Ukraine by State, Jared Kushner left UK in the middle of Trump's state visit to meet with Zelensky in Brussels [Jun 4, 2019].

June 5, 2019: "While in Brussels, Mr Zelensky also met Jared Kushner, son-in-law and senior adviser to US president Donald Trump."

Funny how Trump didn't mention that during his presser yesterday, @lrozen.

Trump in full freak out mode this morning : “I want to know who gave the whistleblower the info? Because that’s close to a spy. You know what we used to do in the old days when we were smart? Spies and treason, we used to handle it a little differently...”latimes.com/politics/story…
Trump stuns staff from the US Mission to the UN when he said the whistleblower's source was "close to a spy" and that "in the old days," spies and treason were dealt with differently [they were executed].

The statute does not contend that the subject of the complaint be an employee within the intelligence community but Schiff says Maguire adopts a position that says Trump is above director, above IG, therefore, IG cant investigate. That was the IG's reading. Is that his reading?
The allegation, Maguire says, has to relate to intelligence.
Schiff, I'm trying to get to whether POTUS is beyond reach of law.
Maguire: No one is.
Schiff: yet IG has said he cannot look into it further because it involves the president and his beyond his jurisdiction
Maguire: we were waiting for exec priv to be determined. Not sure what can be done now. If I didn't send it forward within 7 days, then the statute would allow whistleblower to come to you and still be protected.

The declassified, 9-page whistleblower report is out:

"I have received information... that the President of the United States is using the power of his office to solicit interference from a foreign country in the 2020 U.S. election." intelligence.house.gov/uploadedfiles/…
"The President's personal lawyer, Mr. Rudolph Giuliani, is a central figure in this effort. Attorney General Barr appears to be involved as well," the whistleblower report says intelligence.house.gov/uploadedfiles/…
It wasn't just the content of Trump's call with Zelensky but what happened afterwards to cover it up: "White House officials told me that they were "directed" by WH lawyers to remove the electronic transcript from the computer system in which (they) are usually stored..." /1

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

President and Mrs. Trump are dining at the Trump Hotel DC right now.
It’s a 7:41 drive from the White House to the Trump Hotel DC (with a motorcade; slower for you).
