  1. Some no-name bureaucrat told some other no-name bureaucrats that Trump said something that troubled her/him. Trump may have made a promise to do, or say something ( but we don't know what) to a no-name foreign leader of a no-name foreign land. Which CNN has 3 no-name sources that claim its true and if you dont believe them then the NYTIMES has 2 additional sources also not named but take the Times word for it ; they are close to the "situation" if thats not enough Adam Shift has confirmed that no member of congress has the report and that this story may be media driven. However IF it were true IF a whistleblower was influenced by the white house it would be bad. IF protocol was not followed that would be bad. IF this happened and IF people are trying to cover it up then that would warrent a need to reevaluate the process. Not saying that any of this did happen but IF it did wouldn't that be a fantasy coming true? Even if it was true , Trump never keeps his promises so you have nothing to worry about.

  2. Who the heck is Joseph Maguire? He's a retired Navy Vice Admiral who's taken a spin through Washington's revolving door. Since August 2019 he's the Director of National Intelligence (=DNI) His act of #ObstructionOfJustice is probably one of the first things he's done as DNI.

    Michael E. Horowitz is the Inspector General of the United States Department of Justice (=DOJ).

  3. DEMS; we are digging our 2020 grave. I’m a registered Democrat and like many, we are disgusted with our parties adolescent behavior. It appears Yang and Tulsi are the only candidates rising above and will have my vote.

  4. "IT IS THE ELECTED DUTY OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES TO SPEAK TO FOREIGN LEADERS AS HE SEE'S FIT! THESE ARE CONFIDENTIAL CONVERSATIONS AND ARE PROTECTED FOR NATIONAL SECURITY CONCERNS" THIS IS NOTHING MORE THAN A LEAKED TOP SECRET CONVERSATION BY PLANTED SOURCES TO DISCREDIT THE PRESIDENT" F-A-K-E NEWS!

  5. Dems are so weak I would file lawsuits and get the courts involved but no the dems wait for the country to fall apart rather than attempt to do something about it.

  6. Trump IS the swamp. Our intel agencies are literally sounding the alerts on this guys inherent corrupt nature. Great going sycophantic Trumpublicans. MAGA – Making America Grimey Again.

  7. I bet he asked Putin to help get him elected through hacking our system. They are experts at it. God knows what he promised him in return.

  8. Why is this man who won't comply with the law thrown in jail immediately??? Joseph McGuirre is a traitor. Stop letting these bought out leaders control our country.

  9. Put the DNI in jail immediately,and anyone blocking this from congress.all Americas need to know the depth of corruption that lead to a trump victory.sad that the whistle blower waited so long,the damage done to our government has been total destruction since trump took office.We the people want our America back,the one where other countries respected us,where people didnt live in fear of the government,where people dreamed of the future not dreaded tomorrow.the indecisiveness of trump puts everyone on edge,its past time for him to GO.He has shownhis true colors,all he loves is his self and money.The power he has been given was too much,he hasnt the mental capacity to be president.

  10. Acting DNI is committing a CRIME by not forwarding the complaint to Congress. Barr and Trump are co conspirators in this crime. The DNI is a stupid codependent idiot enabling Trump's crime. Within days the courts will force faux DNI to forward the complaint to Congress and faux DNI will then be a Felon like his boss Trump. Sickening. The garbage never ends in this fascist Trumpian nightmare.

  11. Most corrupt president in history. Anyone else would have been arrested LONG ago. That's exactly what should happen as soon as his presidency is over. Straight from the White House to jail.

  12. Set the trap to week out more leakers or just another attempt to change the narrative for the public. Why would Schiffty hold a news conference about not knowing squat ?? Perhaps just one more attempt by the Dems to drag out thru the election…

  13. When Schiff, Nadler and all the rest continuously come on national tv and threaten subpoenas it's sadly ridiculous and infuriating…then Schiff says we r waiting for the meeting on Thursday in front of judiciary to get some answers…i don't know whether to laugh or cry….other more serious steps can be taken…for instance Lewandowski could have been held in contempt, fines could be instituted but the Democrats r just a bunch of gutless suits…folks keep calling DT dumb and stupid, well the only stupid ones r the ones calling DT these names….Trump has used the law and the court system for decades to his advantage…he won the Presidency with far less than half the overall vote…he has turned an entire political party against their own country in favor of being beholden to him and him alone…the only dumb in the room are the democrats….they better stop looking at Trump like someone who is uneducated, he knows exactly what he's doing and he is winning….the dumbest thing to do is to continuously underestimate Trump…
