Acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire told U.S. lawmakers Thursday he acted lawfully when he initially blocked the release of a whistleblower report at the center of an impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump's dealings with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy. The text of the whistleblower's complaint outlined concerns that Trump solicited Zelenskiy's help to investigate a political rival. VOA's congressional correspondent Katherine Gypson reports on what's next.
