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 wont get to see Atkinson testify because the Intelligence Committee will hold Fridays hearing behind closed doors.

No it's definitely time - they're ready to go to the mattresses - you apparently aren't which what they are counting on.
A bunch of content cowardly conservative who are to timid .
We started a revolution and switched to coffee over a small tax to pay for the British protecting the colonists from the French in Canada.
War is coming if its not already here. enjoy the sand do the Chinese pay trolls well by the way?
Actually the rats were elected to impeach Trump. They began screaming impeachment two days after the 2016 election
And all they have to do is to vote to have that happen, regardless of outcome and they will do the Pontius Pilate routine of “ I wash my hands” if/when it goes to Senate for the real outcome....
Voters fooled once again by the kabuki theater that passes for representation and government...
Meanwhile Ole Joey lines his pockets and his sons and nary a concern... Hillary get away with the same with her pay for play Foundation.....
And since we won’t see any of these they can leak whatever lies they want to and the MSM will carry them as definitive proof.....
I hope The Donald is hovering above like a stealth bomber and waiting to drop the MOAB on these fools when the timing is maximized....
Approach Schiff’s most abused page boy or secretary or whatnot. Ply them with drink and listen to their horror stories.

I saw that and said the same thing! THIS NEEDS TO BE A COMMERCIAL. IT was AWESOME!!!!
I understand that. It makes them even more despicable. The fascist punks hate America and the Constitution and are making that more plain every day. I despise ALL democrats more deeply every day.
Double secret impeachment so Democrats can control the narrative.
Star Chamber trials. How Elizabethan.
Atkinson is the Deep State creature who put this in motion. He’s the former counsel to John Carlin in DOJ NSD where the coup was going on and run with illegal spying using the NSA system.
I want to see the cross on this guy because it’s going to be brutal.
In November 2017, Donald Trump nominated Atkinson to be the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community.
It was obvious by that time that the Intelligence Community had become totally corrupted against Trump, both before and after his election.
Atkinson was confirmed by Senate voice vote in May 2018.
Not one Democrat Senator went on the record voting against Atkinson.
Why would Trump nominate someone like that?
I have another question.
As of today, the Inspector General of the Department of Justice (which includes the FBI) and his special investigative assistant (Huber) were both appointed by Obama.
As of today, the Inspector General of the State Department was appointed by Obama.
As of today, the Inspector General of the CIA was appointed by Obama.
Why does Trump allow that?
When you look at a record like that, it's hard to believe the guy is even trying.
He mentioned that some other outfit produced it, this could be a great visual for the uniformed masses who would be surprised that the Dem focus has been on impeachment at the expense of the people's work.

DNI Ratcliffe would like a word with you. Also, Fed governors Herman Cain and Stephen Moore say hi.
I don’t think it’d go to a committee....it simply goes to the open senate, with Judge Roberts as the ‘moderator’. The House would send over it’s prosecution ‘team’...which might not be House members. It might be a group of professional lawyers. Trump would have his team there as well. With cameras there, this would be a 20-ring circus...even more interesting than the Clinton impeachment.
I would suspect that Trump already knows these people have a complete lack of moral fiber so he simply keeps feeding them enough rope with which to hang themselves and their collaborators.
It’s not an impeachment it is street theater, a show trial, a farce...and if we treat it like anything but a desperate far left ploy in public, we run the risk of making it look legitimate when it should be obvious it isn’t.
It needs to be the butt of every joke to prevent them from getting psychological traction outside their lunatic base.
“If RBG dies, the Dems will claim Trump cannot name a successor while being investigated for impeachment.”
Of course the coup plotters will say that but Trump will nominate one anyway.
Thanks for your post. Its nice to see a confirmation of what is behind the current Pelosi shenanigans, something that the media seems reluctant to talk about.
I doubt if they even bring it to a vote any time soon if at all. Its probably in their best interest to keep the “theater’ going until November 2020. Brining it to a vote would end the process too soon to get maximum electoral effect or so they think.
The left is scared... their dreamed of Supreme court majority is fading away, they’ve even suffered casualties in their infamous circus courts.
They still haven’t found the magic candidate to get the presidency that they lost.
They do not have the Senate.
The leading figures of their party are popular with their base but dumb as rocks.
Their base is so ignorant they have to keep reminding everyone their party is the ‘most educated’ because otherwise no one would believe it.
