Democrats Say ‘Whistleblower’s’ Testimony No Longer Needed
2019-10-26
[BREITBART] House Democrats believe there is sufficient evidence to advance their closed-door impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump
...His ancestors didn't own any slaves...
without seeking testimony from the so-called "whistleblower," whose complaint initially prompted the probe, according to a Thursday evening report.

The Washington Post, citing several House Democrats, reports that the so-called "whistleblower’s" testimony is no longer a priority in the wake of testimonies delivered by Ukraine’s top diplomat, William Taylor, and former National Security Council senior director Fiona Hill, before congressional Sherlocks.

Taylor told politicians that Gordon Sondland, U.S. Ambassador to the Europe
...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum...
an Union, notified Andriy Yermak, an aide to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, that military assistance would only be provided when Zelensky agreed to look into allegations of corruption against former Vice President Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden
...Old, boring, a plagiarist, fond of hair sniffing and grabbing the protruding parts of women, and not whatcha call brilliant...
and his son, Hunter Biden. Robert Luskin, an attorney for Sondland, said his client has no recollection of the alleged discussion.

"I think it’s quite clear we have a surfeit of evidence that corroborates in full every aspect of what happened and the policy they were pursuing," Rep. Gerald Connolly (D-VA), a member of the House Oversight and Foreign Affairs committees, said in a statement to the Post.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) told the Post: "This is the role that whistleblowers play: Whistleblowers are the people who set off a process by telling the truth. The whistleblower will go down in history as a hero for kicking off this process. But the whistleblower is no longer integral to the investigation in any way."
This is the role anonymus tipsters play. Once the investigation is underway they can be disposed of, if they ever existed.

#2  The whistleblower will go down in history as a hero

"A man like no other."

"I hope they didn't break the mold."

"There was never any man like him."

"A hero unsung, unknown, unseen."

"America should thank this great man," if only you can find him...

#1  Well, yeah. A poorly maintained lawn mower may need starting fluid to get going. But it can't run on the stuff.
