After this point, the issue of the whistleblower obtaining the information through hearsay was never brought up again, as far as I can recall. I've already said we can call it second hand information if the term hearsay bothers people. I don't care what the White House claims.

I'm at the point that I hope another conservative steps up or if a centralist Dem wins the bid. I really don't care about him asking Ukraine to help with the Barr investigation and actually chuckle at the "it threatens National Security" lines. I think we'd all be naive to believe this doesn't happen on the regular. But what I cannot forgive is his comments about the Whistleblower and "what we used to do". That is a threat and I hope that someone in his party calls him out (I know).

Just wanted to point I that I'd heard early in the process the Whistleblower was going on 2nd hand info and obviously he/she was. It does add a second layer to the information. Seems some may be obsessing over ways to say that he/she gained the information otherwise. Would it be less "obsessive' if I said second-hand information instead of hearsay? You were a scout. Your job was to provide intel to the commander. The commander acted upon your intel. Is it safe to say your commander acted upon hearsay or second hand info?

No the people who told the whistleblower would be the scouts. No reason to use second hand information if you can hear from the original people. I have no problem using the whistleblower’s report as a launching point, but I would have a big problem using it as actual evidence. RE: Whistle-Blower’s Complaint Is Said to Involve Multiple Acts by Trump - NATI BENGALS - 09-27-2019 Is it safe to assume Russia would want America to withhold military aid to Ukraine? Or is that just me expecting the worst from the traitorous serial sexual assaulter pathological lying conman with a shitty haircut?

They found it urgent and credible. Then the WH stonewalled and here we are with the complaint being shown to be true multiple times.

I was to describe me as "acting a martyr" and explain how I was wrong. Sorta like you've done in this post. I just chose to ignore it and take the higher ground. The whistleblower reported second hand information. Color it how ever you want. I've grown tired of the BS RE: Whistle-Blower’s Complaint Is Said to Involve Multiple Acts by Trump - Dill - 09-27-2019 The Weekend is upon us! Over the next few days, I'll be following closely 1. The WH. Trump has a personality disorder, does not adequately grasp the political process now constricting him, and has surrounded himself with incompetent protection, whom he'll be giving bad direction. Many of these, including his lawyers, must realize the danger of their complicity in hiding his behavior. I expect some of these to turn on him, each other and/or resign as Trump continues speak and act in ways that further incriminate him--and against their advice. I expect Trump to further destroy morale by blaming his staff, creating further incentive in them to leak or quit or go public, and preventing a coherent PR response to the impending impeachment. The inner chaos becomes ever more public. 2. Other departments of the Exec. State is a mess, as people who were always trying to do the right thing come into conflict with people who were helping Rudy. Doubtful Pompeo can manage this mess. Kurt Volker, apparent point man for Rudy, has resigned, placing him outside direct exec control. The DOJ is in similar difficulty, after Barr and co. diverted the whistle blower report by redefining it as a "criminal offense" and quashing it because a sitting president cannot be criminally charged. The intel community will be ready to cooperate in the impeachment inquiry. 3. The battle over narratives. Fox and Friends. As the sheer implausibility of the Ukraine hoax (the belief the DNC orchestrated the attack on the US elections from the Ukraine to falsely frame Russia) and Biden's "misuse of office," and Trump and Rudy's erratic and contradictory public behavior undermine credibility from that sector of the news, responsible "fake news" sources will keep pouring on astounding revelations which compound concerns of Trump's fitness to lead already raised by the Ukraine call--e.g., the recent revelation that Trump told Kislyak (during the latter's infamous unmonitored visit to the Oval Office) that he was "unconcerned" about Russian interfered with the US elections. (Will Graham call THAT a "nothingburger"?) Secreted transcripts of conversations with Putin and MbS may be pried loose from their classified protection for more astonishing revelations.

Well the acting a martyr point was about you being full of it. The rest of it was pointing out that when you read the report you can see that the whistleblower had access to and read the transcript for himself before making the report. While he included the concerns of others in the IC, he had his own concerns from the primary source material of the phone call. But continue to dismiss these facts as "BS" if you so choose. It wont be surprising. RE: Whistle-Blower’s Complaint Is Said to Involve Multiple Acts by Trump - NATI BENGALS - 09-27-2019 The headlines coming from our favorite state run propaganda outlet say it all. The batshit crazy right have lost all decency and have zero respect for honesty and morality and care about nothing other than party. I used to joke about party over country. But itt has gotten worse than i could ever imagine.

The facts of the case were not what I dismissed as BS; it was your commentary. I don't know how many more times I can type that I applaud the whistleblower; but he/she got the info second hand. I have never dismissed the facts, no idea why you would make that up.

The whistle blower acted on the reports he received the same way a commander would act on second hand info from his scouts. An inquiry is nothing more than a launching point. |
