It’s easy when you make stuff up. The standards weren’t changed to allow hearsay evidence the day before. It always allowed for second-hand information.
This makes no sense in the least. The IC IG is the accuser. The WB has nothing to do with this anymore, other than as a distraction and an attempt to defend Trump for personal retribution and gain. Which apparently you are a-okay with. Which is a shame. I mean come on man, do you seriously think any random Joe-schmo in the IC can just fabricate a complaint and it will be rubber stamped as urgent and credible without any corroboration? Seriously? Of course not. The IC IG has to validate the complaint to determine its veracity. They then become the accuser by passing the information on to the DNI to add notes and deliver it to Congress.
Hang your hat on this one Doug. It is amusing to witness.
Voluntarily resign and admit to the crimes he has committed in the run-up to the election and once in office. He is arguably the single most corrupt President to have ever held the office. I place law and order and the defense of the Constitution above any one man. Always.
Yes, I think an IC or anyone else can fabricate or misinterpret based on their own biases. If I am accused of something I want to have the right to confront the people who claim to have first hand knowledge…not people they supposedly passed it on to.
I don’t think that is even the WB. More likely the people who leaked to him. And what sort of immunity under law can they claim?
As to Trump taking steps to find the identity of the WB, he had best consult with his attorney on that…if he hsn’t already done so.
