Smh. This is completely outrageous and the crafters are having a good laugh. Laugh now, savor it now.

I could be wrong.

This indicates that this is a political hit job. The timing is everything.

The complaint isn’t hearsay and it is true. It is being investigated and validated properly but Trump and Giuliani and the White House have admitted all the major allegations. So the Whistleblower rules change had no effect on this.

The narrative is that Trump and Giuliani admitted the allegations and that what Trump and Giuliani did was treasonous. That’s not quite true (like, not true). But consider that the changes were made solid in August 2019, which, coincidentally, is when Schiff started tweeting about this.

It is hearsay. Changing the rules after complaint was filed--which is the way it appears-- is not the way things are usually done. This was orchestrated and staged by way more than one guy/girl and a lawyer.

I contend they were done in a coordinated fashion. The complaint is now said to be a ‘conglomeration of statements and events over time, by multiple people’, which would never have been possible under the old whistleblower rules. Change the rules, create a ‘situation’ and there you go!

Like, not true.

Don't worry, eventually we'll see the first complaint made to the CIA GC for immediately after the call. And we'll see all sorts of shenanigans by Trump and Giuliani.

Or maybe someone will talk sense into Trump and he'll step down. Ivanka is bright enough.

PP, Ivanka is not bright.

And the truth you aren't going to like is this. The whistleblower committed no crime. They didn't reveal any classified information. Their report is UNCLASSIFIED. Even if they aren't protected under the Whistleblower Act, all that means is that they *might* lose their job. Trump's crimes were going to be revealed.

Much of what is in the complaint has turned out not to be accurate. Maybe, because it was secondhand information. Just because you want to believe it, does not make it true.
Have you never heard things from other people that turned out not to be exactly true?

With the new rules, anyone could say anything, as long as they "heard" it.

Even better, the transcript of the call showed no wrongdoing so they had to scramble and create the extortion narrative. Put two and two together, they say. The funny part is, Biden bragged on tape about him withholding 1 billion in aid unless the prosecutor was fired, and the narrative there is “well, the prosecutor was corrupt”. Let’s say that the firing had nothing to do with Hunter Biden - what Biden did is still extortion.

Why? Does it make you nervous? Why do you care otherwise? Many people think it's completely relevant.

It clutters up the thread when I scroll through, and I honestly don't understand the point people on both sides are trying to make. We have a President who has apparently said such egregious things to Putin and MBS that the records weren't given out to the usual folks, and Trump released the *comparatively safe* Ukraine convo.

Nobody cares how/when the whistle-blowing rules changed, since the focus will be on getting to the bottom of the Ukraine thing, and perhaps getting those sensitive transcripts to the Intelligence committee.

Consider you don't’ understand the point because you don’t want to open your mind.

If you are still on Hunter Biden you are missing all that has come out explaining how that is a smokescreen, and you are also missing the last 3 or 4 news cycles, which has digressed the administration so badly that McConnell is now welcoming the impeaching hearing so they can get rid of this president. But sure, Hunter Biden.

It showed no wrongdoing to they shelved it on a super secret NSC server.

No, this won't boomerang onto Biden.

What Biden did was US policy. You can complain about policy but it's not extortion. What Trump has been doing is not policy.

You guys crack me up. The MOST OBVIOUS conspiracies are staring you in the face, but, NO, you have to go make one up to fit your world view.

President Trump told two senior Russian officials in a 2017 Oval Office meeting that he was unconcerned about Moscow’s interference in the U.S. election because the United States did the same in other countries, an assertion that prompted alarmed White House officials to limit access to the remarks to an unusually small number of people, according to three former officials with knowledge of the matter.?The comments, which have not been previously reported, were part of a now-infamous meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak, in which Trump revealed highly classified information that exposed a source of intelligence on the Islamic State. He also said during the meeting that firing FBI Director James B. Comey the day before had relieved “great pressure” on him.

Ironic that the conversation was put in the secret server because of this conversation.

The man is a traitor. Bill Weld is correct.

Where it is being kept hidden from Democrats! How devious. This doesn’t sound odd to you?

Did that come with a super secret decoder ring?

Linda Tripp managed to get Bill Clinton impeached on heresay that was later proven with evidence.

Funny the GOP doesn't think that standard should hold now.

Clinton lied. That’s what got him impeached. Tell me, if the whistle blower’s statement is so air tight, why did Schiff do his parody of a version?

I know why. You could figure it out, if you thought about it.
