Full title: 'No further discussion': Talks halt between whistleblower lawyers and Schiff staff amid expectation he wont testify.
The whistleblower whose complaint launched impeachment proceedings against President Trump is unlikely to testify to Congress, as talks have ceased between his legal team and committee leaders.
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, who has overseen depositions in Democrats' impeachment proceeding, was initially eager for the whistleblower to testify before citing concern about the person being identified.
Republicans accuse Schiff, a California Democrat, of changing course to prevent inquiries into his staff's dealings with the whistleblower before he filed his Aug. 12 complaint to the Intelligence Community inspector general.
A source familiar with the discussions told the Washington Examiner that talks halted over potential testimony from the whistleblower and there is no discussion of testimony from a second whistleblower, who supported the first's claims.
There is no indication that either of the original whistleblowers will be called to testify or appear before the Senate or House Intelligence committees. There is no further discussion ongoing between the legal team and the committees, the person said.

This entire thing was a scam from day 1..of course the bull sh*t “Whistleblower” wont testify..Shitty Schiff’s work is done..this is what they do in Russia..funny how the Dems keep screaming about how Russia Russia Russia is so evil..but in reality the Dems LOVE Russia, they are Russia and they have the Media supporting 100 percent of the total overthrow of our Govt since they cant win legit
Schiff should testify, after all he is the real whistleblower..he wont allow any “Witness” to open their trap unless he tells them what to say
“MUST it be bolt action, though??”
Admit it. You’re thinking belt fed, aren’t you?
A GOP Congress with no interest in gathering facts and defending POTUS against a coup. In fact their disinterest is defacto support of the House Dems and makes them no less than co-conspirators.

Your sentiment is expressly why I refuse to donate any more money to Trump, as long as her Amins tethered to splitting my donation between do-nothing fayx Republicans. Cory Gartner?Konj Ernst? Thom Tillis? No f*cking way. If the GOP was useless, it would represent an upgrade.
They don’t need the “whistleblower” any more. They have the original leaker, LTC Vindman, who gave the “whistleblower” the content of the call. It’s pretty obvious Vindman was plan B, but when all the conflicts and bias’ of the “whistleblower” made him useless, they needed Vindman. If it does turn out that Ciaramella is the WB, Vindman could be in serious jeopardy for leaking classified information, as Ciarmella was no longer CIA by the time of the leak.
Sounds like cold feet to me.
Schiff doesn’t need the whistleblower’s testimony. He’s already got the narrative set with several having already testified to back it up. I wonder what other scandal they are working on to add to the pile on? Schiff will also resurrect the Russia collusion as part of the charges...that’s why Brennan is still pushing that story. Remember, Schiff promised he had a lot of evidence to back it it...even if it is shaky evidence.
I think the endgame is to get the uninformed, moderate voters, including some Dems that might go Trump. I’m sure they have more lies up their sleeves: they’ll plot and doctor evidence if they have to.
On Dan Bongino’s show today he suggested Eric Ciaramella (pronounced CHAR-a-mel-ah), might be the ‘Charlie’ Strock and Paige texted about.
(I believe I have the following correct as to what Bongino hinted) Bongino said if he is indeed ‘Charlie’ that would mean the CIA had an agent working with the FBI in the Whitehouse. Bongino suggested that would elevate criminality way beyond what we have heretofore believed happened in the plot to remove Trump.
Eric may want to get some Arkancide insurance, lest we hear about his unfortunate ‘suicide’.
Put your money where your mouth is!

I do not understand why the Republicans in the Senate do not have a competing investigation. They could subpoena people like this and ask them about collusion among the Democrats, the media, and the federal bureaucracy; and about the Democrats’ off-the-record witness coaching AKA subornation of perjury.
We need to require him to testify. We also need to call the CIA IG and make him testify as well.
Most Republicans in the Senate want him gone too and probably were in on the fake Russia collusion origins or at least knew about it too but most want to continue in their positions and know the base would push them out.
Ya think?
Batter Up.
Graham punted this to Burr a week or so ago and Burr as usual is providing top cover for the Dems.
....
You are an absolute idiot!

Okay, I just realized you said Burr in your post and not Barr. It didn’t make sense, but I really thought I saw Barr.
While I don’t expect you to accept it, I do apologize.
Ready to take my lumps.
Eric the ‘blower KNOWS that he is in very big trouble for revealing classified information, and could face a long prison sentence.
Impeachment might be worth it to Schiff and Nadler and Pelosi, but, not to someone who could be categorized as a spy and leaker.
Schiff has egg all over his face, and now, they’re entering the beginning of the end of the impeachment case, but first, they have to pretend that there is ‘something there’. But, the end is near.
