Late on Tuesday, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence released two letters outlining why it has refused to hand over a whistleblower complaint to Congress, and why it is refusing to comply with a House subpoena to that end.

The letters answer a few questions, but mostly stoke more curiosity about what’s in the complaint and how close it may be to the White House.

President Trump’s new national security adviser had a big booster before he entered government: his longtime friend conservative talk radio host Hugh Hewitt.

The Director of National Intelligence refused Tuesday to comply with a House subpoena for a mysterious whistleblower complaint made last month.

The refusal escalates an already high-stakes standoff between Congress and the political leadership of the intelligence community over lawmakers’ ability to conduct oversight amid allegations that the Trump administration is trying to politicize the country’s spy agencies.

The National Rifle Association held its first board meetings last week since its high-profile turmoil began this year, during which the group’s leadership apparently succeeded in beating back a group of insurgent members who attended.

Since Friday, a strange story about the House being blocked from seeing a potential whistleblower complaint from within the intelligence community has been circulating.

At the current juncture, the story is sparse on details. But there are serious allegations at play here from what’s known, and they’re worth reviewing.

What’s there to hide?

That’s what a congressional panel investigating a potentially urgent whistleblower complaint from the intelligence community wants to know.

Before slaughtering dozens of Muslims at a mosque in New Zealand and gunning down Latinos in a Walmart, two mass murderers cited one unifying cause in their manifestos: climate change.

“Why focus on immigration and birth rates when climate change is such a huge issue?” the Christchurch killer wrote.

A new lawsuit in the seemingly endless list of legal disputes stemming from the National Rifle Association’s slow implosion pits Wayne LaPierre against a longtime friend.

A little-watched lawsuit filed by competitors of Donald Trump’s businesses was revived by a Manhattan federal appeals court on Friday, potentially opening another window into the President’s — and his business’s — financial records.

For the first time Thursday, frontrunner Joe Biden faced his two leading left-leaning competitors on the debate stage: Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).
