No. We do not say things that can be construed as a threat to the lives of American citizens.

#10 Last I knew, the intel community was not a legislative body.

#11 Personally, I hope this keeps Schiff and that crowd busy until after the next election. At which time I hope they all are minority members of their committees again and Trump can again skip the inaugural balls to oversee Secret Service roundup of IC malefactors.

#12 You Knew It Was Coming: Check Out The Whistleblower’s GoFundMe

Used to be they at least had to write a book. That's what I thought Christine Blasley Ford would do. But no. These days somebody sets up a GoFundMe for them. Isn't this all just a little too convenient?

As for threats, I thought that's what Trump was doing when he talked about the way we used to deal with spies. But at least he can fire them, right? When in doubt, fire them all.

#13 At which time I hope they all are minority members of their committees again

With luck and fed up voters, they might not be returned to Congress. However, I wouldn't bet the farm on that.

#14 We're going backwards in time. This syndrome is like something from an earlier century: political opponents find a patsy who will spread lies about the target, payments are made, the yellow press creates a scandal, the target is wounded or maimed, and the carnival moves on.

#15 OK. This is becoming gloomy. Here's something to cheer you up.

#16 Personally I am begining to wonder if there is a real whistleblower. Perhaps they do not really exists but are a construct of the DNC leadership, media, and 'deep state'. The complaint itself reads like it was written by a committee. He or she refused to step forward and be identified, it's based on heresay - and that was only allowed a few weeks ago...

#17 As a minor minor participant in the Nixon era circus of political power struggles I can tell you there was no where near the vitriol that Trump faces today. Huge swaths of the executive branch senior civil service appear to be in active resistance and even clandestine revolt determined to undo the election of 2016.

What is equally clear is that the power centers of the democrat party have an electoral strategy of revolutionary socialism and impeachment as their sole aim. A question I never imagined I would ask in a serious manner is what to do about that..
