I am really interested to see what the IG says. I suspect that it is going to be some pretty damning complaint against Pompeo (or maybe Giuliani) lodged by apolitical career rank-and-file emboldened after seeing the honorable way Michael Atkinson handled the intelligence community whistleblower. 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
August, 1 day before Adam Schiff tweeted out, someone changed the requirements of the Act, to allow hearsay. Hearsay is not admissible in a court of law.
Someone also, 4 days before it all went public, changed the procedure for how Whistle Blowing is handled.
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.
Interesting, this was at his request and came out of no where, he wants to brief several of the committees in both the house and senate. Since they are on recess are they flying in tonight.
House committees stayed in DC to continue working on UkraineGate. Not sure about Senate committees.
The IG is coming forward with the goods on the Bidens that were buried during the Obama administration.
Then let it be.
