The U.S. intelligence watchdog developed derogatory evidence about the CIA analyst who prompted the 2019 Ukraine-focused impeachment against Donald Trump, including that he submitted false information in his whistleblower complaint, offered hearsay to support his allegations and had the "potential for bias," according to newly declassified memos that were kept from Americans during the failed bid by Democrats to remove the president from office six years ago.
The documents declassified by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard at the request of Just the News provide a starkly different portrait of the alleged whistleblower whose name and face were never shown to the public and whose lawyerly written letter accusing Trump of hijacking Ukraine policy for political gain was heralded by Democrats to launch impeachment proceedings.
Investigators for the Intelligence Community Inspector General documented several concerns about the Trump accuser's political motives, noting he admitted he was a "registered Democrat" who had worked closely with Joe Biden on Ukraine issues and who disliked some of the conservative figures in the president's orbit, the memos show.

The alleged whistleblower's name was redacted from the newly declassified memos but has been identified in some media reports as retired CIA analyst Eric Ciaramella, who now works at a D.C. think tank and is a regular on a podcast critical of Trump policies.

Another "bombshell". How many of them have we had over the past 10 years?
So many "bombshells," so little damage. The only meaning it has now is as clickbait.
“The only meaning it has now is as clickbait.
BINGO.
p
Ciarmello, Adam Schiff and several others need to be in prison.
From the article:
““I do not have direct knowledge of private comments or communications by the President,” the alleged whistleblower, who claimed Trump improperly tried to pressure Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to investigate Hunter Biden, admitted in his initial August 2019 intake form.

Defense lawyers for Trump as well as some members of Congress who served as impeachment managers told Just the News they were deeply concerned the derogatory evidence about Trump’s accuser was kept classified by then-Inspector General Michael Atkinson and Schiff, preventing it from being used to defend the president or conduct impartial proceedings in the House and Senate.

“The exaggerated pushback and concern from Chairman Adam Schiff made many Republicans members think that there was much more of a coordinated propaganda effort than seeking the truth in any potential wrongdoing,” Meadows said. “Democrats leaked everything from the secure deposition room except the fact that they were coordinating with a ‘so called’ whistleblower who had no first-hand knowledge of the subject.”
“Ciarmello, Adam Schiff and several others need to be in prison”
So does Obama and almost the entire democrat party.
It is not at all an overreaction to say that they all deserve to be hanged.
The odious and obese Vindman twins
Somebody should compile them all simply because there are so many it is hard to remember it all. It’s the Cloward-Piven tactic of overwhelming by sheer volume. The Deep State committed so many crimes that we just barely saw one before there were 5 more right in our faces. It meant that we couldn’t fully process any of it.
Now that we’ve had more time for stuff to come out it can and should be processed - at least all put in one place so that when the trials for seditious conspiracy come up we can all see page after page of evidence that has surfaced. Most of which the majority of Americans have never seen.
Something I saw in a video of Steve Pieczenik (sp?) was his claim that the IC gave Assange the DNC emails to stop an intended coup to put Hillary in office. I’d love to get Gary Berntsen and Pieczenik together and ask a bunch of questions. Berntsen believes that Hillary lost in 2016 because Trump’s lead was too large for the communist-Islamist cabal run out of Serbia to steal for her. If the IC’s release of the DNC emails got Trump more votes it may have had the desired effect.
But unless the IC put Russian “fingerprints” in the DNC file, Crowdstrike was duped about Russia hacking them. And the FBI, etc should have known it was NOT Russia who did the hacking. Yet Crossfire Hurricane was supposedly justified on the basis of 2 things: the Steele Dossier (included in an annex) and the so-called Russian hack of the DNC emails. The IC most likely knew that BOTH OF THOSE justifications were made-up crap.
I don’t know.
“… that he submitted false information in his whistleblower complaint,…”
Sounds like providing false information to a federal employee.
Is that a felony? Just asking FRiends who might have more expertise than me.
Although, I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express.
👍👍
Unless I see arrests, convictions and executions this is all meaningless tripe.
“No balls no blue chips”
Oh yeah. I remember now. The State Department underling who was outraged Trump had defied him. Right?
Your attention to detail and especially historical detail led me to your wordpress page... impressive. I have similarly compiled historical archives, generally centered around FR coverage and many govt documents - pdf's.
🗿 Occasionally I re-post things from FR's early archives, which always prompts someone to ask how I have access to archives that are no longer available. 😎
Time has caught up with me. 👴 I imagine you understand.
You are an asset for FR, not just a hanger on. 🤔😄
As far as I know, Ciarmello’s name still remains incognito - officially. 🤷
Name them!!! Overclassification.
The acting AG is a rat mole so nothing will happen as usual
I think it is because you aren’t spelling it correctly. Ciaramella.
Does he still have a top secret security clearance? Bet he does and can still access TS information.
