So the Democrats want to impeach based on... RUMOR?
Democrats will impeach first and fill it in as they go.
Enumerate the rumors and present them as “charges”. Expect that from Schiff. He’s a crumb.
Defecate or discommode!
The coming democrat presidential debate will probably be a love fest as the democrat candidates take turns pushing MSM and democrat impeachment hysteria.
One step away from testimony like the witch trials. They aren’t saying that Donald Trump appeared to them in his demonic form of a pitbull that proceeded to make wild passionate love to their shins, thus tempting them to fornicate with the neighbor’s goat, resulting in the neighbor catching them in the act, but both the “whistleblower” charges and the witch hunt would result in a long painful and thoroughly barbaric discovery phase where the accused is presumed guilty in the court of public opinion... or so the Dems hope.
I think it’s more like third had hearsay.
Uh no. Because in addition to the hearsay rule the best evidence rule suggests that there is better evidence and that will come from the first hand sources as soon as the anonymous whistleblower identifies them.
What has gotten into Lindsey? Is he running for President already?
It’s like everyone is now ignoring the notes Trump provided and the media is just buying into this b.s. from a second hand account and news reports. It’s so frustrating.
I think there is some sort of crap on 60 minutes right now on it all and I just had to turn the channel.
Our courts call it “hearsay” and it is inadmissible in any court in the country.
In that case, why not use the Steele dossier? It's also second-hand information.
It doesn't matter that it was ultimately proven false as long as the second-hand thought it was true?

This is what you get when jackals like Brennan get into positions of power. We have Obama to blame for all of this.
“So the Democrats want to impeach based on... RUMOR?”
Demonrats will impeach for no reason. I believe there is a reason why the intensity sudden increased to volume 11.
1) Lucifer’s hammer is finally going to come crashing down on the dems. This is kind of plausible since the media is collectively and forcefully shutting down any and all allegations against Biden Very intensely with absurd levels of feigned outrage the split second the word. Biden even begins to sub vocalize.
Since Republicans never ever charge dems with anything, the more likely scenario is that Ruth Buzzard has croaked and there is no way they will allow a president under impeachment investigation to replace her and will keep up this farce with the hope of wearing out enthusiasm simply from fatigue for Trump as long as it takes.
The dems have succeeded, I am now a hater
Graham’s right. As it stands Trump has a right to face his accusers. If somebody had good information that would be one thing, but they changed long standing rules regarding whistleblower status, and the likeliest reason for doing that would seem to be out of bias if not outright malice. Neither is a good look for an agency that is supposed to be non-political and unbiased.
I think it should fall to the agency to prove that they had a unbiased reason to change the rule making hearsay evidence admissible, even though it is inadmissible in court. If they cannot prove that they had a valid reason to do this everyone with a hand in this should be answerable.
I heard that Margaret Brennan is having an affair with John Brennan AND Hilliary Clinton! Call me a WHISTLEBLOWER!
If they get some deep state guys to back up the whistleblower’s account they can claim that Trump’s transcript is phony and call that a cover up. That’s what the dems want.
9 In May, Attorney General Barr announced that he was initiating a probe into the “origins” of the Russia investigation. According to the above-referenced OCCRP report (22 July), two associates of Mr. Giuliani claimed to be working with Ukrainian officials to uncover information that would become part of this inquiry. In an interview with Fox News on 8 August, Mr. Giuliani claimed that Mr. John Durham, whom Attorney General Barr designated to lead this probe, was “spending a lot of time in Europe” because he was “investigating Ukraine.” I do not know the extent to which, if at all, Mr. Giuliani is directly coordinating his efforts on Ukraine with Attorney General Barr or Mr. Durham.
