Whistleblower is about Trump not Obama.

I know it's difficult but try to remember who the current president is. It's not Obama. Try to get over it.

I don’t see where the NYT indicates it’s a big deal but it is a fact that he came to them first, is it normal procedure for the committee to go public with a complaint that hasn’t been filed. He referred the WB to the IG and suggested council, if it’s something greater I’m with you.

The whole “but Obama” thing is legit.
Obama was a constitutional train wreck.
If we can’t be consistent, how are we to take any of this seriously?

Personally, I care nothing about any of what’s going on now. It’s nothing but posturing. Rallying the troops. Getting people worked up over bombastic vagueness.

Actually this thread title is nonsense. The aides of the committee were contacted and the whistleblower was referred to an attorney.

Since the thread is predicated on conspiracy peddling, I’d say Trump is fair game. At least that had more in common with the thread predication than the thread itself.

Is it normal procedure to lie about it as Schiff did? Please see the video I posted.

Also this.

The time to address that was when he was in office.

Now Trump is in office and responsible for his actions and behaviors.

Is there some other "we" that Schiff is talking about?

Oh. Oh my. Here it is. After all Trump sycophants went hours going nuts about this, it turns out that DNI Regulations actually contemplate whistleblowers going straight to the intelligence committees. Bwahahahaha what a bunch of suckers
