And hopefully, Admiral Rogers will set the appropriate tone on Wednesday. This will no doubt influence the questions and examination of Comey and his testimony. They might very well push Comey further than he is intending to go.

As I said, whatever happens today will set the tone for Comey's testimony tomorrow.

Daniel Coats, the director of national intelligence, also refused to discuss the matter, and he declined to address a Washington Post report Tuesday that Trump urged him to ask FBI Director James Comey to back off the Russia investigation.

"I've never been pressured, never felt pressure to intervene or interfere in any way with shaping intelligence in a political way or in relationship to ongoing investigations," said Coats.

Warner responded, "You may not have felt pressured, but if he is even asking, to me that is a very relevant piece of information. At some point these facts have to come out."

They're just engaging in CYA.

"In the three-plus years that I have been the director of the national security agency, to the best of my recollection, I have never been directed to do anything I believe to be illegal, immoral, unethical or inappropriate. And to the best of my recollection, during that same period of service, I do not recall ever feeling pressured to do so.”


"I have never been pressured. I have never felt pressured to intervene or interfere in any way with shaping intelligence in a political way or in relation to an ongoing investigation.”

I guess the "tone" has been set. It was highly amusing watching Warner's reaction and the liberal meltdown on Twitter as Rogers and Coats both shut down his questions.
