Very informative article. As usual, the media misreports the story. Jarret does a good job in letting us know what this is all about.

It appears the acting Director of National Intelligence (DNI) agrees with this assessment. His agency’s general counsel wrote a letter stating the complaint did not meet the ICWPA definition because it involved conduct “from someone outside the intel community and did not relate to intelligence activity”, according to a report by Fox News. This is why the DNI refused to forward the complaint to congress.

Perhaps most importantly, it reveals the Deep State continues its Extra-Constitutional efforts to undermine this president.

And. once again reminds us that the media is 100% complicit in this effort.

so what you are asking is that the fact that there is nothing there ever stop the left wing media from making up lies and publishing them as if they were proven facts.

We have to change how this works.

If the media publishes lies as facts and they are found to be totally they need to get hit with a one million dollar fine for each and every time they published those lies.

We should have freedom of speech but not freedom to lie day after day and story after story.

Of course the DC concern trolls are all out worrying that this will undermine and discourage federal whistleblowing. They are confusing whistleblowing with sedition.

Spying on the President seems to be the thing to do these days.

Have a feeling the complainer is in deep sh**.

Greg Jarrett is good. I suspect the media and the House are going to end up with egg all over their faces...again.

Deep State (esp intel), MSM, and the democrat party represent the “axis” that is actively and continuously at war with the President and all of those who support him.

I don’t see how Dem’s making an issue of this doesn’t backfire on Biden.

It’s not wrong for Trump to ask the UK to review the circumstances in which they fired a prosecutor.

It was wrong of Biden to use US Aid to demand that the Ukraine fire a prosecutor that was investigating a firm his son is tied to.

First there was supposedly a Russian spy working for the FBI who supposedly could corroborate much of the Steele Dossier. Convenient that... you can alledge all kinds of things if you never have to produce the spy to testify.

Now we have a “Whistleblower” who is probably also conveniently anonymous.

Not a Whistle-blower IMHO.

Just a sorry government employee afflicted with T.D.S. who broke her (his?) oath of office, the conditions of her employment, rules of confidentiality and violated the trust placed in her in a sad attempt to screw the President.

1. It appears that an American spy in one of our intelligence agencies was spying on our own president. The complaint suggests that this intel agent was secretly listening in on Trump’s conversation with a foreign leader.

Explain to me how that is not sedition and a hanging offense!?

This “whistleblower” should legally not be allowed to disclose any details about a presidential conversationto anyone and should be put in jail for doing so.

What if this is a deep plot by anti-Biden Democrats to expose the bribery and other illegalities in Ukraine by his son and him to force him out of the race, at the same time smearing our President? Yes, a wild and erratic thought.

To put this in plain language, a spy who allegedly spied on the president does not have a legitimate whistleblower complaint against that president under the law. The ICWPA is a mechanism to report alleged misconduct by members within the intelligence community, of which the president is not. Yes, the alphabet soup of intel agencies ultimately report to the president, but that does not make Trump a member of that community and subject to its rules of conduct.

Guess the Intelligence Bureaucracy, oops I mean 'Intelligence Royal Court - oops I mean the Intelligence 'community' is smarting from being called 'Police State Goons'... Good for them - wanting to appear 'lawful' is a solid good first step.
