Your assertion that there has “never” been a requirement for first hand information is absolutely false.
The law does not require first hand information. What's on the form is literally irrelevant it's a fricking form
Imagine you go to your brand new municipality courthouse to transfer a title on a vehicle. You provide your information and pay your fee as required in their ordinance but the form incorrectly lists an old address with the note "This document must be submitted to the office at 7655 Old Address Blvd" (uh oh that building was torn down) -- think they broke the law by processing your form?
Sometimes forms are wrong or misleading.. at the end of the day forms are just tools to help convey statutory requirements and to streamline the relevant process.

Yes. Nailed it. A member of the intelligence community filing a whistleblower complaint against the president of the United States is exactly like a title transfer on your car. No need to have accurate forms.

Accordingly, what is in question is the element of the law which elevates complaints to the level of "urgent and credible," therefore requiring transmission to Congress.
The law does not require first hand information.
The ICIG cannot transmit information via the ICWPA based on an employee’s second-hand knowledge of wrongdoing. Whistleblower speculation about the existence of wrongdoing does not provide sufficient basis to meet the statutory requirements of the ICWPA for transmission.
