[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]The word of White House officials isn't "hearsay, rumor, or gossip". If this U.S. official brought this claim to the press, their information wouldn't be labeled as "hearsay, rumor, or gossip."

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.[/quote]

No, this won't boomerang onto Biden.

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

If Trump had gone to the Ukraine and insisted on the firing of a prosecutor investigating his son, Don Jr., in exchange for &1 billion, somehow I don't think you would this this.  [/quote]

Because that is not what happened. That’s not the timeline of events and not what Biden did or bragged about doing.

What DID happen was Trump sent Ghouliani, through a back channel, to negotiate a deal with a foreign leader wherein he would receive his aide upon agreeing to “revisit” the long-settled Biden issue. Both Ghouliani and Trump admitted this. The WB transcript bears it out, and the real transcript, which likely is even more explicit, is hidden. Then, to top it all off, because the crimes we know about already aren’t serious enough, he threatened the life of the whistle blower who told on him.  Extortion, witnesses tampering, obstruction.
