Interesting article comparing current "whistleblower" treatment to previous whistleblowers:

Rolling Stone Article

quote:

Actual whistleblowers are alone. The Ukraine complaint seems to be the work of a group of people, supported by significant institutional power, not only in the intelligence community, but in the Democratic Party and the commercial press.

Not that RS is worth a damn as cage liner, it is interesting that a decidedly leftward publication is saying this.

When Kiriakou first saw the “whistleblower complaint,” his immediate reaction was to wonder what kind of “CIA officer” the person in question was. “If you spend a career in the CIA, you see all kinds of subterfuge and lies and crime,” he says. “This person went through a whole career and this is the thing he objects to?”

I knew it was Taibbi before I even looked. There's a lot not to like about that guy, but one thing I will say about him . . . he's not afraid to go where the evidence leads, and when he smells shite, he calls it shite.

A Leftist with some regard for the truth. Taibbi is going to get hammered for this small swerve into truth.
