Is "I heard it on the grapevine" even really whistleblowing?

LOL

Glad to hear that he is bringing the complaint out into the open and debunking it. Looking forward to Congress confirming they have received


Just admit you don't want to see the transcript

Everyone in here can see that's true at this point

Show the complaint, then show how it was completely false.



That won't matter to the democrats, and you damn well know it.

Why release a complaint based on hearsay when you can release the actual transcripts? Especially if even though you release the transcripts, the democrats and media will ignore it and focus on the hearsay?

There is absolutely zero reason to release the complaint. Both legally and politically.

But you want it released for the same reason the dems and msm do...to focus on the hearsay and bury the facts.

You're just as big of a fricking hyperpartisan hack as they are.

Trump should change his mind.

Nah, I decided to not release the transcript.

I sure as hell want to know if the complaint is really just, “I heard it through the grapevine”. So let’s see it. Simple. I don’t want someone else’s opinion about that.

Literally no one even denies that the complainant didn't hear the actual call

Are you really this f****** stupid

CNN defense force now saying that this "wasn't the only call" and that it "doesn't matter" if there was no explicit quid pro quo.

Unreal.

Of course it doesn't matter. The narrative is all that matters.

And the narrative is that the Orange Man is very, very bad.

The narrative certainly isn’t “most transparent President ever”...

You’re arguing that there must be a statute that requires this information to be provided?

Fact of the matter is the executive branch is withholding a whistleblower complaint from Congress.



Those pesky statutes. Unfortunately, that how those pesky laws work.

quote:

Maguire told lawmakers as much in a Sept. 13 letter, asserting that the complaint “concerned conduct by someone outside the Intelligence Community and did not relate to any ‘intelligence activity within the responsibility and authority of the DNI.’

“The complaint therefore did not fall within the statutory framework governing reporting matters of ‘urgent concern’ to Congress,” Maguire wrote.


Unless you can cite another whistleblower statute that would require the executive branch to turnover the complaint, congress has no right to demand the complaint.

That's how that pesky separation of powers works.

Sometimes it doesn't matter and context does
quote:

Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest? is an utterance attributed to Henry II of England, which led to the death of Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury, in 1170. While it was not expressed as an order, it caused four knights to travel from Normandy to Canterbury, where they killed Becket.

...as Trump agrees to release unredacted transcripts of privileged information that he has no legal compulsion to provide.

So now merely talking to a foreign leader is a crime.

I am beginning to think that anything Trump does or does not do is a "crime" in their eyes...
