House Democrats Believe ‘Whistleblower Complaint’ Will be Leaked if Not ‘Turned Over Voluntarily’


Rep. Adam Schiff

House Democrats believe the Trump-Ukraine ‘whistleblower complaint’ will be leaked if it is not voluntarily handed over to Congress.

In a shift from ‘Russian collusion’ to ‘Ukrainian collusion,’ President Trump is being accused of abusing his power by pressuring Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate the Biden crime family.

According to a report by Politico, House Democrats believe the complaint will be leaked because “absent the whistleblower report, this will be a more difficult process. It’s hard to run an impeachment inquiry from news reports alone.”

This is all the Democrats have — Someone embedded in the deep state bureaucracy creates a ‘scandal’ with Anti-Trump gossip, runs to the Democrats in the legislative branch then leaks it to the Washington Post.

Acting DNI Joseph Maguire is refusing to hand over a ‘whistleblower’ complaint from an unidentified person in the intel community over to the House Intelligence Community that could potentially be ‘covering up the president’s misconduct’ over a phone call he had with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

The general counsel for Acting DNI Joseph Maguire argued in a letter that the whistleblower complaint did not meet the ICWPA [Intelligence Community Whistleblower Protection Act] definition because the complaint involved an individual outside of the intel community (President Trump).

Furthermore, the ‘whistleblower’ doesn’t even have direct knowledge of President Trump’s phone call with Zelensky and there was no quid pro quo so this entire Democrat-media frenzy is based on Deep State gossip fueled by leaks to the Washington Post.

Schiff and the Democrats are desperate to get ahead of Trump because on Tuesday afternoon, the president announced that he authorized the full, unredacted transcript of his phone call to Zelensky to be released by tomorrow.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) will hold a meeting with her Democrat caucus Tuesday afternoon at 4 PM ET to discuss whether to impeach President Trump in the wake of the Deep State Trump-Ukraine whistleblower hit and will hold a presser following the meeting.

Joe Biden on Tuesday called for Trump to be impeached for exposing the Biden crime family’s international money laundering operation.
