The ‘whistleblower’ was not acting alone, and members of the intelligence community inspector general’s office were likely providing an assist in the hoax attempt to bury President Trump.
After President Donald Trump released the transcript of his July 25, 2019, telephone conversation with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky, the left’s “whistleblower” plot began to crumble. No, Trump didn’t condition foreign subsidies on Ukraine investigating Hunter Biden, son of the former vice president and presidential candidate Joe Biden. And no, Trump didn’t raise the question some eight times.
Then came the declassification of the “whistleblower’s” actual complaint against the president, which made clear the still-unnamed intelligence officer was peddling nothing but gossip and hearsay, seasoned with several factual falsehoods. This further exposed the Ukraine Purse Strings Hoax as the Resistance’s sequel to the failed Russia collusion hoax.
To fully grasp the depths of the deception and duplicity, however, requires a familiarity with the governing whistleblower laws. Once those laws are understood, the latest attempt by the Deep State to take down our duly elected president become even more obvious. It also becomes clear that the “whistleblower” was not acting alone, and members of the intelligence community inspector general’s office were likely providing an assist in the attempt to bury Trump. So here’s your lawsplainer.
According to Law, This Is Not an ‘Urgent Concern’ On October 20, 1998, President Bill Clinton signed into law the “Intelligence Community Whistleblower Protection Act of 1998,” or ICWPA. This statute provides a mechanism for individuals in the intelligence community to share classified information with congressional intelligence committees. But—and significantly, as we shall see—the statute, by its terms, only applies to “a complaint or information with respect to an urgent concern.”

The difference between 1930s Germany and today is the 2A and internet communication. Mulon Labe.
Maybe he is just ignorant of law, and did not recognize what the lawyers were doing to him was unethical on their part. He thought perhaps they had some shred of legal basis, even though they do not.
Congress has taken advantage of his remarks, and asserted for a fact that Atkinson and the whistleblower acted in good faith. That contention is not credible.
This deep state stuff has been going on since about 1900. 1920 for sure. It picked up steam as unconstitutional agency after unconstitutional agency was sprung up to stifle freedom and plunder the wealth of the people.
“factual falsehoods”..??
Not that American public is by and large stupid and lazy, just that getting it to accept "bad orders" won;t work the same way it did in Germany.
I don't believe anybody INSIDE the government (and that includes the military) would balk much at killing the population, but the population will fight back.
ICIG Atkinson sent notice of the complaint to Warner and schiff straigtaway, knowing the complaint was out of his jurisdiciton. I would not be surprised if he also sent the complaint even though he knew it was a breach of executive privilege. Signs are he did send it.
It is pretty clear Schiff was not surprised when the complaint “officially” got to him. He already knew all about it.
The complaint was not released from classification until AFTER the call record was!
The Mysterious Whistleblower Complaint: What Is Adam Schiff Talking About? - Lawfare
One-sided exposition, plus the timeline that lawfare wants to be the public timeline.
NONE of the content of Trump's conversation with Zelenskyy was IC business or activity. The CIA spy and ICIG Atkinson swept it up and crafted a convoluted BS argument that the call was IC business, spun a smoke screen of inapplicable law and precedent, and here we are.
Comey, Roesnstein, Atkinson, Strzok, Page, "no direct evidence that bias affected outcome" Horowitz, all part of an out of control and illegitimate parasite on the body politic.
Michael Atkinson, IC IG who claimed an error-riddled report from a complainant with no first-hand info, was of "urgent concern" should never have been appointed by Trump.As senior counsel in Obama DOJ in 2016-17, he worked directly with two officials...
involved in DOJ investigation into Trump campaign. John Carlin, Atkinson's boss at DOJ NSD, facilitated the FISA on Carter Page, received regular updates from McCabe on collusion case.
Atkinson went to work for Carlin THE SAME MONTH Comey officially opened Crossfire Hurricane.
"In Sept 2016, Carlin moderated an NSD event that featured Comey, former AG Loretta Lynch, former CIA Director John Brennan and White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough. Carlin abruptly resigned shortly thereafter amid controversy related to his handling of FISA material."
Guess who Carlin, the IC IGs former boss at DOJ, used to work for?
Robert Mueller.
Carlin was his chief of staff.
Atkinson said on at DOJ thru election and transition. Guess who else he worked for? Mary McCord, the NSD chief who accompanied Sally Yates to meet with Don McGahn just days after Inauguration Day to warn the White House that Mike Flynn might have violated the Logan Act.
Atkinson admitted in his Senate confirmation hearing he had no experience in the inspector general space? Why did Dan Coats recommend him?
And did Trump White House put an Obama-era DOJ lawyer as the watchdog in charge of a government sector that's been trying to sabotage him?
bttt

Did Trump appoint Atkinson? Another bad appointment.
Yes he did. And the DEMs throw that in our faces with the idea being "Trump's own guy thinks Trump is abusing his power."
I suppose, at some level, that is true. Most of the government is in open rebellion agianst Trump and the people.

Thanks for sharing. What a den of snakes...
“I trust Barr this much and in this way. If the crimes we all know were committed were a serious threat to the future of the country he would prosecute them. Since the entire coup and counter coup mess are in reality trivial to the future direction the people who actually are wealthy enough to buy outcomes in this country none of what so outrages us is actually relevant. So, in fact, what we are all up in arms about is trivial. Which would explain why he is not prosecuting anyone. It would be like stepping on ants to reduce your wait in TSA at the airport. They have nothing to do with each other. So why do you all want to waste so much effort stepping on ants?”
Because every bit of the criminal activity has to be documented and revealed to the public, or it never happened.
We are gonna need a bigger boat.
Regardless if it is China or Russia, or both, they both clearly and greatly benefit from the insertion of the obamanation, all the way to the present.
And they both benefit from the offensively anti-American efforts of the demon party, and their destructive license to do so from the Rino’s.
China has been working hard to impact our elections for Democrat presidential candidate’s for a long time. Recall - Clinton/Gore, Chinagate, China giving billions to the family members of senators and congressman in the early nineties. (Probanly back to near a decade prior, when looking at their bankrolling Bill into clear back to AR Attorney General).
And wow did they come out ahead, far more dangerous, and politically prolific.
