per the Washington Examiner.

quote:

Eric Ciaramella, the alleged Ukraine whistleblower, was a guest of Vice President Joe Biden at a glitzy lunch in October 2016 to honor the prime minister of Italy.

Biden co-hosted the banquet with former Secretary of State John Kerry for then-Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi. Ciaramella, who is of Italian heritage, was among the U.S. officials who accepted an invitation. This week, the Washington Examiner reported that Ciaramella is now a deputy national intelligence officer for Russia and Eurasia on the National Intelligence Council, reporting to the director of national intelligence.

Ciaramella, a career CIA analyst, was Ukraine director on the National Security Council during the end of the Obama administration and remained there during the early months of the Trump administration, when he was briefly acting senior director for European and Russian affairs. He is now accused of being the official who filed a complaint about a July 25 phone call in which President Trump urged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to look into a conspiracy theory regarding CrowdStrike and investigate Biden, a Democratic candidate for president in 2020, in relation to his son Hunter's business dealings in Ukraine.

But Biden definitely had no idea what he was doing all those years, especially if he was on the board of some Ukrainian companies.

Well, hell. No wonder he was "concerned"

He wasn't concerned for the direction of the country, he was concerned because Bidens name was mentioned

This would all be over if the whistle blower were required to answer one question:

What exactly did Donald Trump say that motivated you to file your report. Not your interpretation or anyone else's. What were his exact words?

So, VP Biden serves as one of two ostensible “hosts” for a lunch honoring an Italian official. He sends probably a few hundred invitations to Italian-Americans in the administration. Ciarmella was one of them, and he attended the lunch.

egads.

That he didn't hear anything and neither did anyone who told him that they did.

The Whistleblower was one of over 100 people at a State Department banquet. And that means what?
