It's hard to tell from the complaint whether these "more than a dozen officials" came forward with information voluntarily. I hope each witness provided a statement or maybe their statements were taped.

Some of the Pubs in both Houses will deny everything, some, like Romney won't. It'll be interesting to soo how many are in each camp.

tRump is already making threats to the whistle blower. That's sends a message to anyone else who wants to back up the whistle blower.

It is blatant extortion. I have to wonder if the call wasn't even worse than the notes indicate and what was released is actually a cleaned up version.


It's disgusting that not a single House Republican supports an impeachment inquiry.
