Whistleblower

​We’ve all been hearing about the anonymous whistleblower who made a complaint about Trump to the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community, Michael Atkinson. Atkinson deemed the complaint to be serious and passed the matter along to the Director of National Intelligence, Joseph McGuire, who after consultation with his own office’s general counsel and the general counsel of the DoJ, decided not to turn the information over to Congress, even though procedure demands that he hand the information over within five days if the IG has determined the complaint to be substantive. McGuire has since agreed to testify in open session in Congress on Thursday, and in the meantime it has come to light that Trump was basically bribing/blackmailing the Ukrainian president to investigate Joe Biden’s son, apparently with a view to discrediting his major rival’s campaign. Rep. Adam Schiff, Chair of the Congressional Intelligence Committee, is coming out fighting.

Action:

1. Fax Adam Schiff to thank him for his response.

2. Fax Devin Nunes, the ranking minority member of the House Intelligence Committee and ask him to stand with Adam Schiff.

3. Contact your Member of Congress and ask them to impeach Trump on account of his egregious malfeasance in the matter of the Ukraine.
