, preparing a subpoena as soon as this week for the former White House personnel security director to testify before the committee.
In a new letter to White House counsel Pat Cipollone, Cummings details an interview with White House whistleblower Tricia Newbold, who currently serves as the adjudications manager in the personnel security office. Newbold told the committee that "she and other career officials adjudicated denials of dozens of applications for security clearance applications that were later overturned," according to the letter.
The ranking member on the House Oversight Committee, Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, called this a "partisan attack on the White House" and took issue with Cummings characterization of the 25 individuals. In a rebuttal memo, Republicans said Cummings "cherry-picked excerpts from Ms. Newbold's transcribed interview to release highly personal information to continue his partisan investigation of the White House." Republicans also said Newbold had "limited first hand knowledge on particular security applicants and had trouble recalling specific detail of the majority of the 25 individuals.

Facebook says it will now block white nationalist, white separatist postsFacebook on Wednesday said it would begin banning posts, photos and other content that reference white nationalism and white separatism, revising its rules in response to criticism that a loophole had allowed racism to thrive on its platform. Previously, Facebook only had prohibited users from sharing messages that glorified white supremacy -- a rhetorical discrepancy, in the eyes of civil-rights advocates, who argued that white nationalism, supremacy and separatism are indistinguishable and that the policy undermined the tech giant's stepped-up efforts to combat hate speech online.
