Yeah, right.
Atkinson and Comey need to get a room.
Why did he change the whistleblower forms?
Bull-damn-sh!t
The President is NOT within the intelligence community’s purview. The ICIG is a liar, and a criminal.
This resistor retard CHANGED THE RULES for “whistle-blowers” [is that a gay thing?].
I marvel that these people get prestigious jobs, great benefits and perks, well paying, high profile, and then do gobsmackingly stupid things to get themselves fired.
STFU. You are no longer in a position to say anything relevant. So sour grapes are your last recourse? You are fired, get lost clown.
Ba bye! Blah-baaaaaaa
He had no legal obligation that I can discern to forward hearsay gossip, demonstrably false, and pass it off as a legitimate whistleblower disclosure. Or maybe I’m wrong; maybe he’s a patriot.
Isn’t this the a$$hat who changed the rules governing “whistleblowers” by allowing this one to file a complaint about something that he did not personally have knowledge of?
FBI just had 29 out of 29 FISA files that the DOJ inspector found were deficient. Every single one tested had major problems. Were are Wray and were was Atkinson on that. Both need to go!
The key to understanding the corrupt endeavor behind the fraudulent “whistle-blower” complaint, doesn’t actually originate with ICIG Atkinson. The key person is the former head of the DOJ National Security Division, Mary McCord.
Prior to becoming IC Inspector General, Michael Atkinson was the Acting Deputy Assistant Attorney General and Senior Counsel to the Assistant Attorney General of the National Security Division, Mary McCord.
It is very safe to say Mary McCord and Michael Atkinson have a working relationship from their time together in 2016 and 2017 at the DOJ-NSD. Atkinson was Mary McCord’s senior legal counsel; essentially her lawyer.
McCord was the senior intelligence officer who accompanied Sally Yates to the White House in 2017 to confront then White House Counsel Don McGahn about the issues with National Security Advisor Michael Flynn and the drummed up controversy over the Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak phone call.
Additionally, Mary McCord, Sally Yates and Michael Atkinson worked together to promote the narrative around the incoming Trump administration “Logan Act” violations. This silly claim (undermining Obama policy during the transition) was the heavily promoted, albeit manufactured, reason why Yates and McCord were presumably concerned about Flynn’s contact with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak. It was nonsense.
However, McCord didn’t just disappear in 2017 when she retired from the DOJ-NSD. She resurfaced as part of the Lawfare group assembly after the mid-term election in 2018.
THIS IS THE KEY.
Mary McCord joined the House effort to impeach President Trump; as noted in this article from Politico:
“I think people do see that this is a critical time in our history,” said Mary McCord, a former DOJ official who helped oversee the FBI’s probe into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and now is listed as a top outside counsel for the House in key legal fights tied to impeachment. “We see the breakdown of the whole rule of law. We see the breakdown in adherence to the Constitution and also constitutional values.”
“That’s why you’re seeing lawyers come out and being very willing to put in extraordinary amounts of time and effort to litigate these cases,” she added. (link)
Former DOJ-NSD Head Mary McCord was working for the House Committee (Adam Schiff) who created the impeachment scheme.
Now it becomes critical to overlay that detail with how the “whistle-blower” complaint was organized.
Mary McCord’s former NSD attorney, Michael Atkinson, is now the intelligence community inspector general who brings forth the complaint.
The “whistle-blower” had prior contact with the staff of the committee. This is admitted. So essentially the “whistle-blower” almost certainly had contact with Mary McCord; and then ICIG Michael Atkinson modified the whistle-blower rules to facilitate the outcome.
There is the origination. That’s where the fraud starts.
The coordination between Mary McCord, the Whistle-blower and Michael Atkinson is why HPSCI Chairman Adam Schiff will not release the transcript from Atkinson’s testimony.
It now looks like the Lawfare network constructed the ‘whistle-blower’ complaint aka a Schiff Dossier, and handed it to allied CIA operative Eric Ciaramella to file as a formal IC complaint. This process is almost identical to the Fusion-GPS/Lawfare network handing the Steele Dossier to the FBI to use as the evidence for the 2016/2017 Russia conspiracy.

“...from my having faithfully discharged my legal obligations...”
(After I changed the whistleblower rules to fit this case.)
Tissues, aisle 9, gg. Get some.
Tell that to Intel committee chairman Nunes next Spring.
What a sad sack.
I guess it makes him feel better about being a liar and a traitor to say he didn’t do anything or something like that.
What a schmuck.
Wow. A sanctimonious douche in the upper echelons of the intelligence community. Unprecedented (except for all the rest of them)
Oh, please. Go write your stupid book.
