Why is such a focus put on 2nd and 3rd hand witnesses, many of whom are Never Trumpers, or whose lawyers are Never Trumpers, when all you have to do is read the phone call (transcript) with the Ukrainian President and see first hand?

MSM has conditioned people to hear THEIR version of a story. People are too LAZY to read (or can't read) for themselves.

What a sorry state AMERICA is in, thanks to the deliberate dumbing down of our education system. The DEPARTMENT of EDUCATION must be dismantled! Let WE THE PEOPLE decide policy and curriculum.

Abolish the Dept. of Education and the National Education Association....

That would be a start to taking back our schools.

ICIG complaint alleges Trump-Ukraine whistleblower may be soliciting illicit donations

“[M]y client believes ... that the federal employee you are protecting and their attorneys apparently have strategically weaponized their alleged whistleblowing activities into a very lucrative money-making enterprise using a charity incorporated under a different name than the trade name it is using for fund-raising purposes, which would appear to my client to be a clear abuse of the federal employee’s authority and access to classified information,” Gallo wrote in the letter to ICIG Michael Atkinson, the same government watchdog who originally received the Ukraine complaint from the whistleblower.”

That paragraph was a reference to Whistleblower Aid, which is also known as Values United, co-founded by Zaid. (Values United tax documents show it paid $258,085 for advertising and consulting services to West End Strategy Team, whose founder Matt Dorf was quoted on the group’s website saying he “influences progressive politics, skillfully shifting the conversation to achieve the goals of West End Strategy clients.”)
