President Donald Trump likens the sources behind a whistleblower complaint to spies.

Moments after the whistleblower report was made public, the committee began a hearing where acting director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire was giving evidence about the document, which he had for weeks refused to share with Congress.

Mr Maguire then blocked release of the complaint to Congress, citing issues of presidential privilege and saying the complaint did not deal with an"urgent concern" — Mr Atkinson disagreed, but said his hands were tied. Mr Maguire acknowledged that the complaint alleged serious wrongdoing by the President, but insisted that it was not his role to judge whether the allegations were credible or not.
