Intel Community Secretly Gutted Requirement Of First-Hand Whistleblower Knowledge [in August]
The Federalist ^

Posted on 09/27/2019 4:42:29 PM PDT by Bigtigermike

Federal records show that the intelligence community secretly revised the formal whistleblower complaint form in August 2019 to eliminate the requirement of direct, first-hand knowledge of wrongdoing.

Between May 2018 and August 2019, the intelligence community secretly eliminated a requirement that whistleblowers provide direct, first-hand knowledge of alleged wrongdoings. This raises questions about the intelligence community’s behavior regarding the August submission of a whistleblower complaint against President Donald Trump. The new complaint document no longer requires potential whistleblowers who wish to have their concerns expedited to Congress to have direct, first-hand knowledge of the alleged wrongdoing that they are reporting.

The brand new version of the whistleblower complaint form, which was not made public until after the transcript of Trump’s July 25 phone call with the Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky and the complaint addressed to Congress were made public, eliminates the first-hand knowledge requirement and allows employees to file whistleblower complaints even if they have zero direct knowledge of underlying evidence and only “heard about [wrongdoing] from others.”

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.

No question any more. It’s the People vs the deeply Corrupt Government/Media complex and it’s just this lone man,[their version of a glitch in the system] President Trump is in their way. It’s everywhere and all the decades of building within government, academics, media, political forces is finally revealing themselves openly. Makes me feel depressed sometimes against overwhelming odds

“May It Be”
May it be an evening star
shines down upon you.
May it be when darkness falls
your heart will be true.
You walk a lonely road;
Oh! How far you are from home.

(Darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way.
(Darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now.

May it be the shadow’s call
will fly away.
May it be you journey on
to light the day.
When the night is overcome
you may rise to find the sun.

(Darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way.
(Darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now.

Yes! We have to pray for this man because as individuals we haven’t the power to do more. Plus, we have to stand behind this man because he is the best that has come along in decades, and that includes Reagan.
