Rick Wilson suggest some Rs think they can trap Yates on the rice unmasking bit.
Should be interesting to watch. It's rare for a lawyer, especially a prosecutor to get trapped on something. But it can happen.

Yesterday, the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence sent two letters related to its investigation into Russian active measures during the 2016 election campaign. The first letter was sent to FBI Director James Comey and National Security Advisor Admiral Mike Rogers, inviting them to appear at a closed hearing on May 2, 2017.
The second letter was sent to former CIA Director John Brennan, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates inviting them to appear at an open hearing to be scheduled after May 2nd.

Apparently so, since the house cmte republicans would have to sign off on this to do the invite.

More closed-door hearings are needed.
Probably just an oversight, but ADM Rogers is NSA/CSS/CYBERCOM, not National Security Advisor (special assistant to the President.

Should be interesting to see which Repugs are on the Committee by that point, Chaffetz down, Nunes stepped down. Who's next?

Chaffetz was never on the committee.
The Russian side of it is bullshite. What I want is for them to get Brennan, Clapper and Yates in there and drill them about Obamagate.

if its bullshite, then you should want a report to come out and clear the republicans.

I feel confident they will be grilled over this, but that won't be the only discussion topic.
hearings are tough since the dems get to ask questions too.

The vermin dem ranking member and another have an ethics request against them too but they have no honor so they are still there.
I don't have a cute name for them like rethugs, they are just vermin

So you think Comey & Rogers are going to accept the invite, after not showing up the last time they were invited? And there is no way in hell Brennan, Clapper or Yates is going to show up.

Mike "Turkish" Flynn? He's a bit busy trying to cut deals and avoid prison.
