No Surprise: Schiff Reportedly Hired Two NSC Aides Who Worked With Ukraine Whistleblower
More on this story from yesterday.
[Townhall] House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) hired two National Security Counsel (NSC) aides who worked with the Ukrainian whistleblower while at the NSC during both the Obama and Trump administration, the Washington Examiner reported.

Abigail Grace worked at the NSC from 2016 to 2018 in U.S.-China relations, followed by a short stint at the Center for a New American Security think tank. Schiff tapped her in February to work as an Intelligence Committee staffer to help investigate the Trump White House.

The second aide, Sean Misko, worked as an NSC aide until 2017. He was also part of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's policy planning staff under Deputy Chief of Staff Jake Sullivan. He joined the Intelligence Committee as a staffer in August, the same month the whistleblower filed his complaint.

#2 This guy is deranged. He's like Brennan or Batshita or Occasional Cortex, but with a mellow baritone.

It's becoming obvious that "Deep State" is a misnomer:
there's nothing "deep" about these buffoons.

They're transparent. They're completely incompetent; they don't cover their tracks; they now telegraph everything in advance.

"Shitshow" is more apt.

#3 Has WhistleGate petered out yet? Seems like the narrative has shifted to saying Trump pulled the troops out of Syria and abandoned the Kurds. Jeebus, I guess some people, mostly die hard lefties still swallow this Kool Aid.

Yeah, funny how all the talking heads and pundits switched from "Oh noes! Trump will get us into a war" to "Oh noes! Trump is pulling out of a war"

Look for Pudge to run a couple low-rent missile tests to try and get NKor back into the news cycle.

#8 Did I say Russia? I meant Ukraine!

That's it: Belarus! Belarus! Belarus!
