Whistleblower's legal team, in statement, supports releasing full complaint to lawmakers
By Morgan Phillips | Fox News

    The legal team for the whistleblower who alleged that President Trump pressured Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to investigate Trump’s potential 2020 rival, Joe Biden, and his son wrote a statement Tuesday urging acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire to release the complaint to the Intelligence Oversight Committees.



"We support the bipartisan, unanimous resolution passed by the Senate regarding our client's lawful whistleblower complaint and call upon the acting director of national intelligence to transmit our complete disclosure to the two Intelligence Oversight Committees," the statement read.

The Republican-controlled Senate on Tuesday voted by unanimous consent for a resolution calling on the Trump administration to release to the Senate Intelligence Committee the whistleblower’s complaint. The Intelligence Committee has opened a bipartisan investigation into the complaint, and it was reported that the whistleblower may appear before the committee to give closed-door testimony.

Chuck U Shumer already teed this ball up:  It's not what Trump said on the phone, it's blocking the release of the "dog-whistle blower" report that's impeachable.  Ya know.

Yeah. Anyway we’ve definitely crossed the Rubicon with this sh*t. We’re in open revolt territory now.

This will not end well for the Dems. They are all hat and no cattle.

I remember Obama and Biden both said there was never even a hint of scandal in their administration.

*Crickets*

Amazing what you can get away with when the media has your back.

Why wouldn’t someone want legal representation, especially after what happened with whistleblowers, under the last admin? The Nation even had to join in on the criticism.

“The anonymous person who filed a formal, uncorroborated complaint against Trump for allegedly asking a foreign leader to investigate corruption related to Biden now has a legal team that includes a Dem operative who worked for Schumer & Clinton.” @FDRLST https://t.co/cPlZVT0gUD— Dan Scavino (@DanScavino) September 25, 2019

 Did you know:

 The lawyer for the Ukraine “whistleblower” is a former staffer for Chuck Schumer and Hillary Clinton

 How is it that the Clintons have connections to every single “impeachable offense” surrounding the president and his administration?

So? Trump hired Emmet T. Flood, during the Mueller investigation. He was Clinton’s lawyer during the impeachment, 20 years ago. Jared Kushner has used Abbe Lowell, who defended Bob Menendez and Jamie Gorelick, of 9/11 fame, as his attorney for his security clearance issues. What are all these Dem defenders doing around the White House?

Also, this particular lawyer knows a thing or two about the process and realities of retaliation against those that speak out. His clearance was suspended, which ultimately led to his departure from the CIA. Just last month, Homeland Security, under this administration, determined the agency conducted a retaliatory investigation against Bakaj.


Bakaj then spoke with the intelligence community inspector general’s office (ICIG) about those concerns. According to source, superiors at the CIA interfered in interview with the ICIG to find out the whistleblowers’ names. Afterward, Bakaj’s security clearance was suspended and was put on administrative leave. A year later, in 2015, Bakaj retired from the CIA, and became a managing partner of Compass Rose Legal Group.

Over five years later, on August 8, 2019, external investigators reviewed Bakaj’s case and the Department of Homeland Security concluded that he was retaliated against by his superiors were trying to expose the whistleblowers in the office. While full conclusions remain classified, and Bakaj is not listed by name, his attorney Mark Zaid confirmed that it was him.

I am sick and tired of this "whistleblower" halo.   Let's have a name, please.  I doubt he's a high-minded patriot,  but just another partisan with an axe to grind.

The person who filed the report is not a whistleblower and it sickens me that every last media talking head is using the term.

And, he's not a whistleblower; the DNI has already made that determination.

They’ve controlled the narrative for decades. Only now have regular Americans awakened to the reality that the media has been acting as the propaganda arm for the democrat party.

I credit Rush Limbaugh for pioneering conservative talk radio 30-years ago and taking the slings and arrows to help make today’s new-found awareness of the media’s collusion with the democrats. possible.
