Dan Coats probably the one that listened to trumps phone calls...
Two weeks after he quit, he walked into a meeting at the White House she was attending, and told her in front of everybody she needed to quit. She quit the next day.
That might be the "second hand info" we have heard about.. Dan Coats telling her the President is blackmailing another country for his own benefit... she writes the rapport.
Mitch McConnell is a political survivalist. He knows what Trump is, but he has been a useful idiot in the WH so Mitch protected him. But I have no doubt McConnell will throw Trump under the bus the moment it becomes obvious that Trump is no longer an asset to him, and the Senate will follow his lead. Maybe that's what we're seeing here.
I also wonder if it's a case of McConnell having too many battles to fight at the moment. He's up for election, and his approval rates in Kentucky are not good, and he's got a pretty strong opponent. (And he's been getting dragged hard with the Moscow Mitch moniker, which he hates.) Also, his wife is facing an investigation in regards to ethics. He may have decided he needs to cover his (and his wife's) butt, which means he can't play nanny to Trump.
Interesting that Republicans are on board with following the law for a change. A bridge too far for even them?
Not really.
I think you've been played.
The rope has been presented to the Democrats and left-leaning press and, once again, they have been nice enough to tie a lovely noose around their neck.
We'll see tomorrow when Trump releases the transcript.

Oh, stop teasing us! We know Hillary predicted she and her co-conspirators would be swinging from nooses. Such a lovely image...
Congress cannot tell the Executive branch what to do any more than the Executive can tell the Legislative what to do.
Lol... yes there is....

What is the ICWPA?
The ICWPA holds the dubious distinction of being the only “Whistleblower Protection Act” that doesn’t actually include any whistleblower protections. To summarize the law’s extensive history, I’ll say: It originally was intended to provide protections for national security whistleblowers who wanted to go to Congress, but was watered down in the final iteration due to separation of powers objections from the executive branch. While keeping the original – and misleading – name, the final law only really established a mechanism for Intelligence Community whistleblowers to forward a complaint to the congressional intelligence committees by way of an inspector general. It is a breakdown in this process that Schiff is flagging.
So anybody got any theories on who Whistleblower is?
I suspect Mick Mulvaney.
Trump has been horrible and disrespectful to him lately.
