“Impeachment will uncover the truth,” House Financial Services Committee Chairwoman Maxine Waters, a California Democrat, tweeted Tuesday.
But a decision by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to hand off the impeachment inquiry to the Intelligence Committee means key parts of the inquiry will be kept secret.
The House Intelligence Committee, led by Chairman Adam Schiff, is scheduled on Friday to interview Intelligence Community Inspector General Michael K. Atkinson.
Atkinson is one of the most important witnesses in the impeachment inquiry. He conducted the initial review into a whistleblower allegation that President Trump asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate corruption allegations against former Vice President Joe Biden and that the White House attempted to conceal records of the July 25 call.
But the public won’t get to see Atkinson testify because the Intelligence Committee will hold Friday’s hearing behind closed doors.

To be honest, I expect a minimum of three more impeachments after this fails. There might even be another attempt around October of 2020.
To settle all of this....I think three Democrats from the Obama administration need to be picked up and sent into a serious court situation with ten years of prison time given to each....to get the general attention of the DNC.
Exactly, and we must never lose sight of that.
A secret whistle blower providing hearsay testimony in secret to remove a President. And the corrupt MSM is just fine with this.
Schitt will make up one of his fantasies about what was said in the “testimony” and will be spread to the media before the meeting is over
Whoa...kinda Star Chamberish...
Well, little Adam can then come out and tell us what he thought the IG said......... nothing could go wrong there!
“They wanted to impeach; they were talking about it from November 9 2016 ... it was no secret that the ‘Rats sole agenda was Impeach Trump.”
Yep. Hilary’s Presidency was the end game. A Progressive SCOTUS for generations, Obama’s “new normal” sub 1% growth, disarmament of the public and the continued rise of antifa. They screwed the pooch in ‘16 and are royally mad at us for their mistake. Typical. It may take more than voting this time.
“The democrats are attempting to remove Pres. Trump from office for crimes Biden committed!”
It is also for the crimes Hillary committed.
“But a decision by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to hand off the impeachment inquiry to the Intelligence Committee means key parts of the inquiry will be kept secret.”
NOPE.
NO Impeachment Inquiry is in progress, you piece of obama Big Media.
Secret? Like Star Chamber, eh?
“Shouldn’t they vote to impeach first?”
No, the narrative’s been set.
EVERY faithful Hussein Head, and I’ll bet a lot of Republicans, already believe an impeachment inquiry is underway.
Secret. Recorded. Leaked. Not Secret.
The media doesn't like the public to know that about BOTH Clintons.
There is a school of thought that by declaring an impeachment inquiry by fiat that Nancy has essentially frozen Trump in place.
If RBG dies, the Dems will claim Trump cannot name a successor while being investigated for impeachment.
Ditto, his DOJ cannot indict John Brennan for treason.
Etc..
Some are starting to target Pence as well now.
The Left and Squish won’t stop until Democrats seize power.
So it would go to the senate intel committee to "investigate." Where Burr lets Warner run things, and in fact on the GOP side is a RINO nest.
If the AG had any balls, these assholes would be in prison right now for conspiracy to overthrow the United States.
They have sent letters to federal employees demanding documents and testimony behind secret closed doors that is in violation of federal law.
Pompeo wrote the congress critters about it, outlining their crimes.
Great summary. And exactly why Biden Jr. needs to be subpoenaed now by the Senate and President Trump’s concerns validated.
This needs to be nipped in the bud now or the the Senate will grind to a halt for the last year of Trump’s first term.
We can expect plenty of leaks to the media (which will later prove to be greatly distorted versions of what was said). Can Schiff prevent the Republican members of the committee from being present?
