wrong again....do you ever get anything right?HoustonHusky said:
Sweet! Even GodDamnStupid admits the document turned in is the equivalent of a blank sheet of paper wipes with shite. Because the one thing GodDamnStupid and everyone else can’t point to in the claim is a first-hand account of anything, and as the transcript showed the second-hand account was a bunch of lies.
Keep lying.
https://www.dni.gov/files/ICIG/Documents/News/ICIG News/2019/September 30 - Statement on Processing of Whistleblower Complaints/ICIG Statement on Processing of Whistleblower Complaints.pdf
Although the form requests information about whether the Complainant possesses first-hand knowledge about the matter about which he or she is lodging the complaint, there is no such requirement set forth in the statute. In fact, by law the Complainant – or any individual in the Intelligence Community who wants to report information with respect to an urgent concern to the congressional intelligence committees – need not possess first-hand information in order to file a complaint or information with respect to an urgent concern.
The Complainant on the form he or she submitted on August 12, 2019 in fact checked two relevant boxes: The first box stated that, “I have personal and/or direct knowledge of events or records involved”; and the second box stated that, “Other employees have told me about events or records involved.”
As part of his determination that the urgent concern appeared credible, the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community determined that the Complainant had official and authorized access to the information and sources referenced in the Complainant’s Letter and Classified Appendix, including direct knowledge of certain alleged conduct, and that the Complainant has subject matter expertise related to much of the material information provided in the Complainant’s Letter and Classified Appendix. In short, the ICIG did not find that the Complainant could “provide nothing more than second-hand or unsubstantiated assertions,” which would have made it much harder, and significantly less likely, for the Inspector General to determine in a 14-calendar day review period that the complaint “appeared credible,” as required
by statute.
in regard to changing the form which doesn't apply to this case since the Whistleblower used the May 2018 for the IC IG wrote
In 2018, the ICIG formed a new Center for Protected Disclosures, which has as one of its primary functions to process complaints from whistleblowers under the ICWPA. In early 2019, the ICIG hired a new Hotline Program Manager as part of the Center for Protected Disclosures to oversee the ICIG’s Hotline. In June 2019, the newly hired Director for the Center for Protected Disclosures entered on duty. Thus, the Center for Protected Disclosures has been reviewing the forms provided to whistleblowers who wish to report information with respect to an urgent concern to the congressional intelligence committees. In the process of reviewing and clarifying those forms, and in response to recent press inquiries regarding the instant whistleblower complaint, the ICIG understood that certain language in those forms and, more specifically, the informational materials accompanying the forms, could be read – incorrectly – as suggesting that whistleblowers must possess first-hand information in order to file an urgent concern complaint with the
congressional intelligence committees.
The ICIG’s Center for Protected Disclosures has developed three new forms entitled, “Report of Fraud, Waste, and Abuse UNCLASSIFIED Intake Form”; “Disclosure of Urgent Concern Form-UNCLASSIFIED”; and “External Review Panel (ERP) Request Form – UNCLASSIFIED.” These three new forms are now available on the ICIG’s open website and are in the process of being added to the ICIG’s classified system. The ICIG will continue to update and clarify its forms and its websites to ensure its guidance to whistleblowers is clear and strictly complies with statutory requirements. Consistent with the law, the new forms do not require
whistleblowers to possess first-hand information in order to file a complaint or information with respect to an urgent concern

Not even close. If a Conservative is guilty I say kick their ass out of congress. I always have. I am probably the only one on here who has worked in Congress and I know how corrupt both sides are. As you know you POS I have no love for Trump the man yet you tell this lie. If he has done something wrong hang him. The problem is the only people who have done something wrong from the very fucking beginning are democrats, and they need to hang. It was The Bitch and BO who wired tapped a Presidential Candidates HQ and compared to Watergate it is massive in its corruption. The problem with you POS libs is that you have zero interest in the corruption of your party. Whatever is good for the party right dumbass?ramenduck said:
If it were Hilary or Barry on the hot seat, he would see the exact same facts and call it the other way. Just my years-earned feelings on Atl, but I am correct and most here know it.
The games you violent liberal POS are playing is racist and illegally political which is dividing this country. You need to have your asses handed to you in the on-coming elections and I pray for the future of the country that you get rebuked. We don't need your socialist third world corruption running the country.

I asked another of you dumbshits today to tell me what he has done wrong and the idiot refused to give me any examples.2001400ex said:
How about I give you the same opportunity? Tell me what he has done wrong? Go ahead, lay the list out for us hondo. -
I don’t have time to list the examples. We all know them. I’m not your personal Google.Bendintheriver said:

Come on Jr. Join the know nothing liberal crowd and provide us with all the illegal stuff Trump has done.GDS said:
Scotti if you didn't think you were smart I wouldn't give you so much shit for being the most dishonest and dumb poster on here. You have surpassed Owl as the most vapid poster and most of us didn't think that was possible. And I mean NO ONE thought that was possible. Good job in proving us all wrong.
But keep on plugging away Jr. -
Hey it’s the guy that lied in this very thread! Of course. Why won’t you read it? Read the mueller report when you’re done.SFGbob said: -
Come on scotti, share with us, tell us all of the illegal things Trump has done.
If you have nothing please shut the fuck up. -
I'm convincedThomasFremont said: -
Got it, I need to read something you never provided and isn't in the document you claimed it was in. Like I said, don't sell yourself short Scotty.GDS said: -

How about his tweet last night repeating a quote about a civil war if he's impeached. So you think he should have done that?Bendintheriver said:

GodDamnStupid...it's almost as if you are coming around.
You are at least now admitting it did change and now just trying to justify why it magically had to change at the exact same time they were lining up Trump on fake conspiracy #13,678,654. And I am sure it did not have to change because ICIG Michael Atkinson, the guy knee-deep in the Carter Page FISA warrant that is currently being investigated and was previously reprimanded by the courts for lying to them about the 80% noncompliant abuse of the NSA database, wanted to attack Trump in any way.
It is also why the DOJ Office of Legal Council says ICIG Michael Atkinson's opinion is wrong on many levels...it is a fraudulant excuse of a re-write of the rules and should never have been accepted:
https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/6429710-OLC-Opinion-Trump-Ukraine-Call.html
And the DNI was correct in not forwarding it to Shitt and Botox, of which they (illegally) knew about it to begin with and started screaming like children because it wasn't.
Which gets us to where we are today.
And you still can't point to any first-hand information of any wrongdoing. Because the transcript itself and the people on the call prove the claims in the document that is the equivalent of a blank sheet wiped with shite are false.
Keep lying.
