    Whistleblower complaint "related to multiple acts"

    "series of actions that goes beyond any single discussion with a foreign leader"

    Trump appointed Inspector General wrote: "relates to one of the most significant and important of the DNI's responsibilities to the American people"

    But the usual pathetic hypocrites just let this pass when it was the Sociopath-in-Chief doing the actual PERSECUTION of whistleblowers. 😂


    Obama’s War on Whistleblowers

    The president has been accused of allowing the Stuxnet leaks to help in the election, but his overarching policy has been extraordinarily tough on whistleblowing.


    https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2012/06/obamas-whistleblowers-stuxnet-leaks-drones/

    “The Obama administration has been cruelly and unusually punishing in its use of the 1917 Espionage Act to stomp on governmental leakers, truth-tellers, and whistleblowers whose disclosures do not support the president’s political ambitions. As Thomas Drake, himself a victim of Obama’s crusade against whistleblowers, told me, “This makes a mockery of the entire classification system, where political gain is now incentive for leaking and whistleblowing is incentive for prosecution.”

    The Obama administration has charged more people (six) under the Espionage Act for the alleged mishandling of classified information than all past presidencies combined. (Prior to Obama, there were only three such cases in American history, one being Daniel Ellsberg, of Nixon-era Pentagon Papers fame.) The most recent Espionage Act case is that of former CIA officer John Kiriakou, charged for allegedly disclosing classified information to journalists about the horrors of waterboarding. Meanwhile, his evil twin, former CIA officer Jose Rodriguez, has a best-selling book out bragging about the success of waterboarding and his own hand in the dirty work.

    Obama’s zeal in silencing leaks that don’t make him look like a superhero extends beyond the deployment of the Espionage Act into a complex legal tangle of retaliatory practices, life-destroying threats, on-the-job harassment, and firings. Lots of firings.”

    It’s even better.

    On video Biden tells the world as Vice President he held up a billion dollars in US aid and gave Ukraine 9 hours to fire their version of an inspector general who was literally investigating his son for corruption and not a peep from the nutjobs around here.

    Trump tells the new Ukraine president they ought to look into that (and hell yes they should) and it is foam at the mouth time for same said nutjobs.

    You couldn’t make this shit up.

    It gets better. First Giuliani denied shaking down Ukraine. Then he admitted it. This is unbelievably trumptarded. You can’t make this up.

    Is that a diversion against the investigation of Hunter Biden? Because it’s not a very good one.

    Kind of a variation on the old moral equivalence angle.
