The Whistleblower May Not Be A Whistleblower At All

The latest media mass hysteria over a whistleblower’s complaint is based on precious little information. That has not stopped journalists from convicting President Trump in the court of public opinion and predicting his imminent demise.

Who exactly is this unidentified “whistleblower”? What is the specific nature of his or her “urgent concern” complaint against the president? Does this complaint really qualify under the Intelligence Community Whistleblower Protection Act (ICWPA)? These are just a few of the most fundamental questions that remain largely unknown.

Despite the paucity of facts, some reasonable observations and conclusions can be drawn:

1. It appears that an American spy in one of our intelligence agencies was spying on our own president. The complaint suggests that this intel agent was secretly listening in on Trump’s conversation with a foreign leader.

Very informative article. As usual, the media misreports the story. Jarret does a good job in letting us know what this is all about.

It appears the acting Director of National Intelligence (DNI) agrees with this assessment. His agency’s general counsel wrote a letter stating the complaint did not meet the ICWPA definition because it involved conduct “from someone outside the intel community and did not relate to intelligence activity”, according to a report by Fox News. This is why the DNI refused to forward the complaint to congress.

That’s why it has to be leaked/sent to the media.

This has nothing to do with proper channels or good faith purpose.

This is all about two things, which have mutual objectives
1) Making Trump look corrupt
2) Keeping the Trump administration from rooting out Biden’s corruption

This is the same exact pattern used to protect Hillary. IE: Make Trump look like the bad guy in order to shield her.

Perhaps most importantly, it reveals the Deep State continues its Extra-Constitutional efforts to undermine this president.

And. once again reminds us that the media is 100% complicit in this effort.

we don’t watch fox news between 3 - 4, and drudge is trying to increase clicks by pandering to leftists. Liberty Daily is a great drudge alternative.

Trump should have Schiff’s security clearance revoked. It is pretty clear he is the source of the leaks.

To put this in plain language, a spy who spied on the president does not have a legitimate whistleblower complaint against that president under the law. The ICWPA is a mechanism to report alleged misconduct by members within the intelligence community, of which the president is not. Yes, the alphabet soup of intel agencies ultimately report to the president, but that does not make Trump a member of that community and subject to its rules of conduct.

So, it turns out that the whistleblower may not be a whistleblower at all. But you will not hear that from the mainstream media. They are too busy lighting their own hair on fire.

so what you are asking is that the fact that there is nothing there ever stop the left wing media from making up lies and publishing them as if they were proven facts.

We have to change how this works.

If the media publishes lies as facts and they are found to be totally they need to get hit with a one million dollar fine for each and every time they published those lies.

We should have freedom of speech but not freedom to lie day after day and story after story.

~~~

The part that most people are NOT taking away from all this is the message that the deep state is sending.

Leave our politicians alone, and we will leave you (Trump) alone.

Whether or not they would actually leave Trump alone is definitely debatable, and you’d have to be gullible to believe such a message. But the point is, these things keep happening in order to run protection for THE REAL CORRUPT POLITICIANS. First they had to attack Trump to stop him from getting Hillary. Now they have to attack Trump to stop him from getting the dirt on Biden’s corruption. The message is, “Back off!”

Of course the DC concern trolls are all out worrying that this will undermine and discourage federal whistleblowing. They are confusing whistleblowing with sedition.

Spying on the President seems to be the thing to do these days.

Have a feeling the complainer is in deep sh**.

Greg Jarrett is good. I suspect the media and the House are going to end up with egg all over their faces...again.

Drudge was compromised a long time ago, I doubt he has a choice.
