Washington (CNN)Last week, quietly and without fanfare, Iowa Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley blocked President Donald Trump's nominee to be the intelligence community's top lawyer, the General Counsel of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, Jason Klitenic.

While Grassley made it clear in the congressional record he has "no concerns regarding Mr. Klitenic's capabilities or qualifications," he explained that he'd be blocking his passage until the top spy in Washington, Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats, responds to urgent questions about the intelligence community's protection of whistleblowers.
