9. Not Sure What That Means

It could mean that what Barr is doing is judicial review by blocking the whistleblower and since the process has determined that the whistleblower has a credible and urgent complaint it must be honored within 7 days. Indeed, my understanding is that DOJ has no role in this process for a reason so under what authority is Barr acting?

My personal speculation is that Dan Coates is the whistleblower and the phone call was between Trump and Kim. Trump was trying to buy himself a Nobel Peace Prize to match the one Obama was awarded. The pieces all fit.
