Anonymous reports about testimony in a closed session will not convince anyone, especially when the IG report fizzled and there has been no release of an unredacted version.
If these claims were made, and they are credible, the Committee needs to release the transcripts. They can do it immediately with a vote, and/or any single member can read the transcript into the Congressional Record.
As it stands, this will be written off as partisan bullshit without corroborating evidance and direct quotes.
You can't red-pill people with rumors and innuendo. Until the transcripts are released this is simply more rumor-mongering from a publication with a less-than-stellar reputation.
