‘Whistleblower’ “Urgent Concern” Complaint Released By House Intel Committee

Via ZeroHedge

The House Intel Committee has released the full (modestly redacted) complaint letter from the so-called ‘Whistleblower’ regarding Trump’s “urgently concerning” conversations with Ukraine.

“In the course of my official duties, I have received information from multiple U.S.
Government officials that the President of the United States is using the power of his office to
solicit interference
from a foreign country in the 2020 U.S. election.”

“Over the past four months, more than half a dozen U.S. officials have informed me of various facts related to this effort.”

“I am deeply concerned that the actions described below constitute “a serious or flagrant
problem, abuse, or violation of law or Executive Order”
that “does not include differences of
opinions concerning public policy matters,”

So to the crimes and misdemeanours…

 The Ukrainian side was the first to publicly acknowledge the phone call. On the evening of 25 July, a readout was posted on the website of the Ukrainian President that contained the following line (translation from original Russian-language readout):

“Donald Trump expressed his conviction that the new Ukrainian government will be able to quickly improve Ukraine’s image and complete the investigation of corruption cases that have held back cooperation between Ukraine and the United States.”

Well that doesn’t exactly sound “deeply concerning”? But there’s more…

“Aside from the above-mentioned “cases” purportedly dealing with the Biden family and the 2016 U.S. election, I was told by White House officials that no other “cases” were discussed.”

Oh so other people confirmed that Trump did not seek more, but the ‘whistleblower’ claims calls and documents were “locked down” – in some nefarious manner?

“In the days following the phone call, I learned from multiple U.S. officials that senior WhiteHouse officials had intervened to “lock down” all records of the phone call, especially the House officials had intervened to “lock down” all records of the phone call, especially the  official word-for-word transcript of the call that was produced—as is customary—by the White  House Situation Room. This set of actions underscored to me that White House officials  understood the gravity of what had transpired in the call.”

Perhaps the most interesting part is the following…

“I was not a witness to most of the events described… However, I found my
colleagues’ accounts of these events to be credible…

Perhaps he would better named a “gossip-blower”

Like a beaten boxer, exhausted in the later rounds the punches of the Dems/Deep State are weaker and have much less precision. Whistle-Blower Gate is transparently obvious and if it used to hold an impeachment vote in the House (successful or not) the Dems will cease to exist as a national political party. Biden should be (but won’t) prosecuted on criminal charges.

I am really not sure how Trump summons the patience and restraint that he has shown since 2015.

Does Trump ever just arrest these traitors? Since nobody from the Deep State has been prosecuted yet, I would say probably not and maybe there is no need the Dems are pretty good at destroying themselves and that weakens the Deep State.

Politics in the USA is getting more surreal by the day. All the serious problems are ignored while the Democrats and deep state work feverishly to get rid of Trump. Why? Is he really that much of a threat to them? No one has yet paid a price beyond a few being fired for the egregious crimes surrounding Russiagate. No wars have been stopped–though none have started either–no wall built, no swamp drained . . . So why are they working so hard to get rid of Trump? This latest attempt, now dubbed Ukrainegate, is their most pathetic thus far, as their desperation grows to oust the president. Why? Is he getting ready to take some very powerful people down? Or is it just that they think Trump will win another term next year, so they have to make their move now? Or something else?

The dems know Trump will win next year and all they can do is undermine his authority, just like they have been doing for 3 years. They did the same thing to Kavanaugh and now every time he is brought up in conversations by the left, they always say he will have an asterisk after his name, as will any decision where he is in the majority opinion.

They want Trump to be considered an illegitimate president so when RBG assumes room temperature, they can clam he has no right to appoint her successor.

T’was fake outrage on Kavanaugh.

He is a 9/11 coverup/speechwriter/attorney not a conservative.

Why would you bring up another Trojan horse like Kavanaugh?

The left uses the term “credible accusations” in both instances. It is their new keyword.

At some point something has to give….the current stalemate between Trump/patriots vs. the Deep State/Left is increasingly energetic but so far…..nothing has “happened”….Think of two Bull Elephants tusk to tusk pushing as hard as they can….currently motionless with enormous energy expenditure it is simply not sustainable. One of the Bulls is going to be sent packing here shortly.

They have to do something to justify their salaries. Attacking Trump continuously gives them air time and a platform of sorts and acts as a cover for the fact that the democrats really don’t have anything of value to offer the country except for a rainbow colored special interest based Marxism.
Republicans don’t have the color but they’re also just acting, sound and fury, signifying and accomplishing nothing seems to define the parties.

“Credible” seems to be the key word to most of the democrat’s rumor mill. There is never any evidence, only “credible accusations”.

One man’s credible is another man’s bullsh*t

I agree on ‘one man’s credible is another man’s bullsh*t.’

That’s why I fear good guys like you aren’t digging deep enough.

Just because someone is reviled and targeted by the Commie-Dems doesn’t mean they are real, credible, or on our side!

Fake outrage is often directed at their own infiltrators to help give them a air of respectability.

Just like the RINO NEVER TRUMPERS who are still floating around. That was fake outrage directed towards their own infiltrator Trump. That was a classic psyop to make him look anti-establishment!

The ones not digging deep enough are the accusers who cannot find one iota of evidence, but keep coming up with accusations. The left believes them to be true, so they become “credible”. When I hear ALL of the leftist talking heads using the same keyword, I smell something that is brown, mushy, smells bad and can be found on the streets of San Fransicko & LA.

I hope Trump trolls their Prog asses with this for the next year on the campaign trail.
It wouldn’t surprise me if the whole situation wasn’t planned and implemented by Trump and his staffers to bait out the Deep State moles. The situation is an excellent lesson on how ethics and political games works in DC.

The scripts are getting old, and the acting is becoming really 3rd rate, and it’s becoming obvious *whoever is really in charge* has been storyboarding this whole drama and all of the major political events of the last 20 years FROM AFAR.

DC is a spineless shitshow. It’s not the true seat of power.

Funny how Clinton, Bush, Obama, and Trump all have property on Martha’s Vineyard.

The most transparent Kabuki Theater in a long time.

Poorly staged.

Badly acted.

When you consider the fact that Pelosi pulled the impeachment trigger before the phone call transcript and complaint were made public, then factor in all the sound bites provided by the MSM talking heads along with Schumer, Shiff, et al this past week questioning whether the transcript was real or not and suggesting a coverup and conspiracy. After reading the complaint would it surprise you that members of the house intel committee may have helped write it.

This all seems to well orchestrated and choreographed and does not come close to passing the smell test. Seems like Russiagate 2.0 to me.

I’ve been waiting years for the lion to roar, but up to this minute, he has only whined like a wounded kitty cat on twitter.

Maybe this will be different. Up to this point, the president has been seen as above the sh*t slinging and a victim of his opponents, but now with the specter of impeachment, he will have to strike back, or forever be portrayed as the president who was done in by the swamp; something he will not be able to accept.

Meanwhile, the democrats are realizing if the do not act now, they will lose whatever momentum they think they have gained from the Russian collusion fiasco that did not go well for them, but was enough for their supporters to have some morsel of a lie to hold onto.

And acting they are doing, throwing up whatever they have to see if something will stick with the American public. But just like the Kavanagh 2.0 attempt, their story is falling apart and you can begin to smell how desperate they have become.

There will be nothing they can offer their fan base if this impeachment attempt fails; all they will have left is to trigger a scorched earth black swan event to save them the humiliation of a 2020 defeat. But the way they have been bumbling along so far, the black swan my only be a irritating gnat; a fitting end to their reign of humor.

The only momentum they got from the Russiagate investigation was negative and they certainly seem to be building on that negativity with impeachment. They are beginning to lose support of moderate democrats and have all but lost independents with their “do nothing constructive, while attacking the President full speed ahead” agenda.
