A couple things here.....

Do these knuckle heads/dumbasses...address that the whistle blow "rules" were changed...And they should be looking into THAT!!...The who, the when...sort of stuff.

And Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), another Trump ally, sought to portray Romney as a disgruntled outlier. “Mitt Romney doesn’t like the president and he’s going to say a lot of things I don’t agree with,” he said.

..Jimmy is one of my Senor turds...He's a worthless...RINO.

The Whistleblower was the messenger. I say two more...A hacker and an attorney

Not the 10 or 12 that the wb implied.

My guess is the intelligence community is eavesdropping on Trump’s calls and they needed an imaginary “second hand” source to leak the information they heard. Citing hearsay from “White House sources” that don’t actually exist. And, they needed the update to the whistleblower form to pull this off. All very sloppy work from Intelligence because it will be exposed...but when you are desperate like the Deep State mistakes will be made. They are flailing, at this point, with the ongoing investigations into their corruption.

A nefarious political attack guised as a whistleblower. It’s obvious many more were involved who should/must be revealed!

I think there are some VERY BAD PEOPLE listening to Trump's phone calls from OUTSIDE the White House, probably from within Barack Obama's or John Brennan's basement.

This so-called 'whistleblower' better damn well be IDENTIFIED or else NO TESTIMONY FROM ANYONE. PERIOD. THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES HAS THE AUTHORITY TO KNOW WHO IS BEHIND THE ATTEMPT TO REMOVE HIM FROM OFFICE.

This STANK goes all way to the Deep State cabal and SMELLS LIKE HILLARY OR GEORGE SOROS.

Given that the so-called 'whistleblower' APPARENTLY DID NOT WRITE THE ACTUAL COMPLAINT HIMSELF, this begs the question, "How many people were exposed to this information in order to draft the complaint?" It reads like a LEGAL document written by attorneys! The so-called 'whistleblower's' complaint should be considered NULL AND VOID for MANY reasons but chiefly because the so-called 'whistleblower' DID NOT WRITE IT HIMSELF. ALL PARTICIPANTS OF THIS HIT JOB MUST BE IDENTIFIED AND REQUIRED TO TESTIFY.

It is entirely possible THERE IS NO WHISTLEBLOWER OTHER THAN DEEP STATE ACTORS PERPETRATING AN CAREFULLY ORCHESTRATED ASSAULT ON THE PRESIDENT. This is textbook TREASON!

TRUMP SHOULD DEMAND TO KNOW WHO WROTE THE COMPLAINT!

VERY important! LACK of proper security clearances or 'need to know' in play here.

I want to know who was behind the changes to the “Disclosure of Urgent Concern” form. I want to know the date in August 2019 that the change came about.

“...The internal properties of the newly revised “Disclosure of Urgent Concern” form, which the intelligence community inspector general (ICIG) requires to be submitted under the Intelligence Community Whistleblower Protection Act (ICWPA), show that the document was uploaded on September 24, 2019, at 4:25 p.m., just days before the anti-Trump complaint was declassified and released to the public. The markings on the document state that it was revised in August 2019, but no specific date of revision is disclosed...”

“Calling this political operative a whistleblower is a travesty.” They want Trump to intercede in this investigation and get him for Obstruction of Justice!

Questions that MUST be answered:

1) Who is the Whistleblower? (There might not be one)

2) Who was the Whistleblower's source?

3) Who WROTE the Whistleblower's complaint?

4) Did all involved HAVE APPROPRIATE SECURITY CLEARANCES? (Potential VIOLATIONS of the espionage act)

5) Did Nancy Pelosi READ THE COMPLAINT PRIOR TO ITS RELEASE?

6) How did Nancy Pelosi know the contents of the complaint if it hadn't been released yet? 7) WHO in the intelligence community changed the rule regarding whistleblower criteria (second-hand vs. first-hand knowledge)?

8) How can Mitch McConnell say impeachment trial must proceed IF NANCY PELOSI NEVER PUT THE IMPEACHMENT INQUIRY TO VOTE ON THE FLOOR??? TOTAL FRAUD!
