I wonder if, when the chips are down, Pompeo will fall on his sword for Trump.
The IG’s forward Whistleblower reports to head of dept to forward to Congress
If THIS IG has whistleblower reports to forward and DIDN’T go to Pompeo with them it must be that Pompeo is implicated in the reports
Just as Trump was with the Intel whistleblower report that was referred to the WH counsel and the DoJ instead of Congress—
Lesson learned—
Go to Congress itself—bypass anyone who is implicated in the Whistleblowers’ reports

Assuming that is what State’s IG will bring forward

Looks like Stone, Snowden and Assange can use these changes to their favor.

Congress has no prosecutorial powers. They have Political Power only.
A political coup, with co-conspirators in the media helping overthrow the government.


James Madison Didn't Want to Normalize Impeachment

The father of the Constitution worried about giving the Senate too much veto power over an ineffective president.

Article II, Section 4 of the Constitution defines the basis for impeachment as an act of “treason, bribery or other high crimes and misdemeanors.”
If the IG can't find any of those acts, then Ukrainegate is over already.

Pompeo may have to recuse himself eventually and may need his own counsel. I would not trust Trump or Giuliani in this situation.

I would not look to Pompeo for help, he already has that "Deer in the headlights" look the past 2 days.

The IG is coming forward with the goods on the Bidens that were buried during the Obama administration.

House committees stayed in DC to continue working on UkraineGate. Not sure about Senate committees.

Don’t be absurd.

This IG is not going to have good things to say about the maniac’s conduct.
