Well, well, well. ****bag's been running his ****-hole of a mouth off to any one of several really big POSes that are now his best buds and not friendly to this country. He has apparently "promised" him something and by doing so, set the hair on fire of the intelligence community for revealing some very sensitive secret or two. His DoJ, which has no authority in this matter, has advised the DNI not to release this information to the congressional intelligence committees which is required by the whistleblower law.

Of course, Trumphumpers will point out that POTUS can reveal any secret any time he feels like it, so no harm, no foul, right? Apart from the obvious dangers inherent in that act by any president much less such an incontinent and incompetent bag-o-**** like Trump the result of revealing that secret is that it is no longer classified so the public has a right to know what kind of **** ****bag is up to.

When he was at the border inspecting some of the newly belt fence (no wall and no Mexican funding for it--the taxpayer via the DoJ is now doing that) he started blabbing about certain features of the fence which prompted the Army's Corps of Engineers commander (Lt. Gen. Todd Semonite) was impelled to tell him: “Sir, there could be some merit in not discussing that.” It will surprise no one that ****bag completely ignored that advise and continued to blab on.
 

What he actually said after he was told not to discuss it was. That’s a good idea, I like that idea or words similar to that. He is such a fool. He never thinks before he opens his mouth. He cannot be trusted.
 

He's been spilling national security secrets for awhile now. I'm very interested in who the whistleblower is. Would be interesting if it's a respected GOP politician. AKA Jon Huntsman.

Who will then immediately be excommunicated as a RINO liberal socialist communist....
 

This administration tries to bury and hide everything.

So, what did Trump say that raised such concerns? It must be serious if the investigator general thought it should be brought to Congresss. But once again the Trump administration is ignoring the law. And this is supposed to be the "law and order" president.

What is it that Trump is so desperate to hide that he's willing to break the law?
 

How can you comment intelligently on the above without knowing the substance of the complaint?

By paying attention. All you have to do is watch how the administration is breaking, bending and twisting the law (the whistleblower protection law) in order to keep Congress from properly doing its oversight function. You apparently have not bothered to keep up.

It could be someone like Huntsman but I'm not sure how he'd have been privy to ****bag's phone calls to the Ukrainian president. It seems much more likely that the person is one of the many dedicated intelligence officers who are alarmed at how careless and dangerous ****bag is to our security and had the courage to come forward. This person had to know that he or she was going to instantly have a target on his/her back for political attacks from ****bag and his henchman, Barr. They will stop at nothing to hide their criminality and treason.
 

Well he was the ambassador to Russia and this made him resign. So he has some knowledge.

First, one would have to find a whistleblower as it seems more like somebody was given some incomplete info to spread fake news again ...

"... The whistleblower didn't have direct knowledge of the communications, an official briefed on the matter told CNN. Instead, the whistleblower's concerns came in part from learning information that was not obtained during the course of their work, ..."

I fail to see how what you posted proves that I said anything that could be considered fake news in my post.

I'm not OK with treason. It's why the email server is such a big deal. If you said anyone that defended either having the server or wiping the data is a traitor, you would have a point.

I find it interesting that you are scared of debating whether or not the whistleblower is Jon Hunstman, former Ambassador of Russia in the Trump administration, who resigned due to issues he was uncomfortable with. But w/e, You do you.

I find it interesting that you can't even read a simple post correctly ...
 


Don calls his own Federal Reserve, our free press and his Democratic opposition treasonous. Yet he asks foreign leaders for dirt on Biden.

In normal times I'd say that Numnuts has no idea who his friends are, but the sad fact is, he does know who his friends are and they include every despot he's met...

Oh, that's easily explained. You must have those magic Trumphumper goggles which eliminate all fact from any written subject matter and substitutes pure rightwing bat**** crazy BS.
