BOMBSHELL: Intel Inspector General Found Whistleblower Had ‘Bias' In Favor Of ‘Rival Candidate' Of Trump, Report Says
Go figure. Whoda thunk it?
[Daily Wire] The Trump administration announced on Tuesday that it is releasing an inspector general report on the whistleblower complaint that is at the center of Democrats' push to impeach the president which reportedly found that the whistleblower had a bias in favor of one of Trump's political rivals.
"Whistleblower" is incorrect. Leaker and hearsay is correct
"A senior Trump administration official told Fox News late Tuesday that the administration will release a document showing the intelligence community inspector general found the whistleblower who leveled an explosive accusation against President Trump concerning his talks with Ukraine had 'political bias' in favor of 'a rival candidate' of the president," Fox News reported. "The official did not identify the name of the rival candidate. Separately, a senior administration official told Fox News the White House has been working as quickly as it can to release to Congress the whistleblower complaint involving President Trump's conversations with the leader of Ukraine, as long as it's legally possible."

The development comes hours after Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced that Democrats were launching a formal impeachment inquiry into the president over a phone call that he had with Ukraine.

An excellent point. Don't let the Left frame the language by hijacking a word that has a lot of positive associations (for now, at least.) "Disgruntled employee" might be more like it.

#3 So it turns out that this is a big nothingburger, as usual. But my question is why did Nancy make such a big frickin' deal about yesterday? Oh, they've really got him this time! Yeah. But they don't. So why all the hub-bub? My theory is that Trump is getting close to some facts about Ukraine, China and Biden that are extremely uncomfortable for Democrats. It might even implicate their precious Baraq and so they're squealing like stuck pigs about a phone call that violated no laws at all to distract from Biden.

#4 Bingo.

Biden's finished, and Pelosi panicked.

She and the Dem leadership are terrified about and trying to get ahead of the inevitable stories revealing Hunter & Joe Biden's obvious-to-heaven corruption. Plus Hillary's collusion with Ukraine via GPS/Nellie Ohr to nail Manafort.

Note that neither Warren nor Sanders has any interest in protecting Joe or Hillary. So Pelosi and the DNC felt they had to act, fast, with whatever weak cards they head. Even a two of clubs, like this idiocy.

This is the biggest boomerang we've seen in a long time.

#5 Biden's finished, and Pelosi panicked.

And if you think Swillary didn't know when to shut up after the election, just watch Joe go go go if he's not the nominee. And that will suck up oxygen all during the campaign.

#6 jypothetically, what difference does bias make if the evidence was actually legitimate... Would evidence against someone only count if it came from loved ones? That's not how evidence typically works.

#7 I'm shocked! Shocked to find political bias!
