House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) warned GOP lawmakers that anyone who unmasks the alleged impeachment whistleblower during public hearings could face a House ethics investigation.

The first public hearings are slated to start on Wednesday, Nov. 13, and will feature testimonies from former diplomat Bill Taylor and George Kent, the deputy assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs.
