GOP Rep Compares Whistleblower Complaint to Steele Dossier

Republican Representative Devin Nunes is comparing the whistleblower’s complaint against President Trump to the Steele Dossier used by Democrats to justify the Russia investigation.

Most of the Steele dossier was proven to be incorrect.

According to Town Hall:

House Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Devin Nunes (R-CA) on Wednesday told Fox News’ Martha MacCallum he believes the whistleblower complaint filed against President Donald Trump for a call made with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky “reads like the Steele dossier.”

“We learned about this three weeks ago on a late Friday night press release that was multiple pages long, about a paragraph long,” Nunes said about the whistleblower complaint.

According to Nunes, there are similarities between how the dossier was written and how the whistleblower complaint was written.

“From reading the complaint, this person is a supposing intelligence officer. Intelligence officers are trained to not have only first-hand sources, but multiple first-hand sources that can corroborate the evidence. So this intelligence person knows this. That’s not what is in the complaint,” Nunes said. “It’s all hearsay. There’s no first-hand evidence. To me, this is somebody — I don’t even believe this whistleblower wrote this complaint because it’s written in a way that reads exactly like the Steele dossier, which, for your viewers, I think they know, the Steele was a Clinton bought and paid for.”

Nunes also called into the questions of the changing of the rules regarding whistleblowers. These rule changes allowed the complaint to be filed with second-hand knowledge.

The democrats by legislation done away with laws and safeguards in our justice. What happened to the right to face your accuser. Second-hand information. Guilty before a trial. This whole proceeding is nothing more than a joke just like the Steele dossier or other recent hearings in the house. I cannot believe we are paying these idiots to do this. It is time we the people impeach each and everyone involved in this travesty.

When the democrats in the house gets together do they talk about how they can serve America, our economy, the border, etc?! Hell no! They just get together to see what false crap they can spin on our POTUS and how they can screw him and the american people! That’s all they’ve done is cry impeach and try to pass poison laws that would hurt americans!

Why doesn’t Trump change the form for whistle blowers back to the way it was before the Dims changed it to suit their needs?

Note: This article provides a classic example of what I discuss in my comment below. The pissants crying foul over Trump’s suggestions that his calls (and orders to the AG and others) for investigation of corruption is a crime worthy of impeachment is classic lunacy. The Chief Law Enforcement Officer of the United States (That is the President for anyone who played hooky during civics classes) is supposed to ignore crime and criminals if they might be his opponents in an election some year away? All Americans listen up. Any oath taking elected/appointed official who supports this ludicrous position is in violation of their own oath!

Comment: Do not have a clue as to how much the average Joe/Jane American really knows about the real workings of the government in this land, but each American should know one fact. The true reason the for all the the mud slinging and rock throwing is very simple. D.J. Trump is in the process of turning the world of the old feudal lords and all of their little pissants completely upside down. Like most lords who have been in power too long, they have forgotten the secret to staying in power. When they started shorting the serfs on their rations and being careless with the quality of their fables, they opened the gates for D.J. Trump. Now the serfs have had a taste of the honey. The next question is, how long before the serfs start to squash the pissants and lay siege to the castles? So sayeth an old mercenary (a.k.a. Soldier/Cop/grunt, Retired).

The democrats will do anything to win. Even the most useless of them all, Al Green. They’re scared and by what he states, they know they can only win an election if our President is impeached.
IMO? LET THEM EAT CAKE. It’s time to take aim and fire with these nut-jobs, and let’s get on with it all. We the people want them charged with at least Sedition!…and get these nurf-hurders out of the way.
