Latest Whistleblower Has "Firsthand Knowledge" Of Trump-Ukraine Controversy | The Last Word | MSNBC

42 comments

    1. So what? The transcript has been released. I wonder if the 2nd whistle-blower is the source for the 1st whistle-blower.

    1. Marius Thefaker : He might, “crack like an egg?” He’s not used to this stuff. He’ll have been coached, but in the end, it comes down to the, “character,” of the person in the spotlight. It’ll be a larf, at any rate 😁

    1. @Saltponds239 Even if Adam Schiff single handedly wrote the whistle blower report, even if he IS the original whistle blower.
      The report has been confirmed by documents provided by the whitehouse, including the fact the transcript was hidden deep in a secret server.
      Since then, the president confirmed, denied, confirmed, denied he wants to investigate corruption in Ukrain (Corruption is all he cares about, although he has never asked Barr to investigate any other corruption, mostly because it happened in his own administration), confirmed, denied, confirmed that he wants several countries to start investigations into Biden. It’s all on tape. The president saw the cameras and microphones and still decided to blurt out another request for help from the Chinese.

    2. Saltponds: Rhetorical question, son. Trump Trolls don’t read. They go around abusing people, or getting, “Butt Hurt,” when people don’t read their Propaganda. It’s IMMORAL remember? You will NEVER get me to read more than two lines of your lying crap, so you can lapse back into your default, insult mode, now 🙂

    3. Dozo G : I admire your patience, sir. But, please don’t allow Trump Trolls to waste your time with their lies and Propaganda? They are not here to, “debate,” only to pin people down, to prevent them from commenting in more places; and / or, to DEEPEN the DIVIDE in America. The person you’re talking to, usually spends his days profanely insulting people, like a 9 year old with behavioural difficulties ✌️👍

    4. @Dozo G
      Whistle-Blower – That’s why we need Adam Stiff to testify along with his staff. If they colluded and/or edited the original complaint, that would be a violation of the law. They NEVER thought Trump would release the transcript.

      Barr – You are absolutely wrong. Didn’t Fake News tell you? Both Barr and Durham have flown to the UK, Italy and the Ukraine conducting their investigation into the 2016 election meddling. One President asking another President to assist in an active investigation is appropriate, especially since we have a treaty with the Country.

      Private Server – Didn’t Fake News tell you? All Presidents have private servers in the White House. Even Obama

      Biden – What I found interesting is, why isn’t Obama defending his Vice President? Here is the video of him bragging about his threat to the Ukrainian government. FF to 1:10

    1. Exactly. Nail on head. After three long years, Trump still does whatever he feels like doing and no one knows how to stop him.

  1. “The whistleblower has no first hand knowledge and can’t be trusted! – t’rump
    “Many people are saying that I am a Stable Genius.” – also t’rump
    😄😄😄

    1. “We have a second whistleblower! A second whistleblower, with first-hand knowledge!” ridiculous, outrageous. We already have first-hand knowledge: from the President and from the readout transcript. They really think we are stupid and easily played.

    2. Ro G — Trump knows what he is talking about, by saying that he is a Genius. It is obvious, that he IS a genius — an Evil Genius,!

      Also, a corrupted crook, which is doing all he can to keep his tax returns and bank records secret, and by doing this, he is clearly admitting, that all the accusations against him, that he committed tax frauds for many years are true, and he knows, that he will go to jail for the rest of his days, if forced to submit those tax return to Congress.

    1. @Ash Roskell
      Forgive my brevity Ash but, I am aware.
      American citizens do not vote on Impeachment.

    2. Richard Darlington : Did you genuinely think I needed that fact explained to me? Is it something, “personal,” with you? You may not be aware, but every single American Politician, right now, is calculating what their, “Base,” thinks about Impeachment. The general public DO have influence on this, and it would be highly irresponsible to sit on the sidelines without contacting GOP Reps in your area and letting them know, it will cost them their jobs, to back Trump . . . Jeez

    3. @Richard Darlington Don’t know why the other President’s had private servers as for Trump, 3 other phone calls were leaked so based on opinions from DOJ and WH lawyers, he moved them to a secure service.

      Here is Susan Rice explaining why they had a “PRIVATE” server in the Obama Administration. Didn’t Fake News tell you Obama had one?

      Break this

    4. Saltponds: He may be obtuse toward me, but he won’t touch your Click Bait and give a hit to Propaganda, any more than I would, son. That’s still immoral. And a Malware Trap, any way you slice it. Sorreh 😊

  2. PLEASE, forgive my Repetition, America, but my message is of the UTMOST IMPORTANCE: You NEED to THINK about the consequences of, “failure.” If Trump gets a wrist slapping, at his Impeachment, he will be BLATANT, RIGGING 2020’s elections with Putin, and he’ll be an unshackled MONSTER, on a Revenge Rampage. Trump MUST be removed. Failure is NOT an option ✌️

  3. So what? The transcript has been released. I wonder if the 2nd whistle-blower is the source for the 1st whistle-blower.

    1. From the sounds of it, there were more than 2 people raising concerns. The first whistle blower mentioned 6 different people approaching them with the details in the report.

      It sounds like the individuals on the phone were divided. Half were concerned and took action to report the behavior, and the other half were intentionally corrupt and went out of their way to cover up their crimes.

  4. The idea that this repug clown paid a million dollars to trump’s campaign in order to find himself in this situation is hilarious.

  5. I believe the term “under oath” is invalid by now. They’re all lying, Kavanaugh + Barr + Lewandowski etc and gettting away with it

  6. “Oh, take the keys and lock Trump up, lock Trump up! Oh, take the keys and lock Trump up! He’s…a…TRAITOR!!”

  7. One little whistleblower sitting on a wall.
    Along came another and then there were

    Two little whistleblowers sitting on a wall
    Along came another and then there were

    Three little whistleblowers sitting on a wall
    Too many whistleblowers sitting a wall could make the whole thing crash and fall.

    1. Dream away. A thousand whistleblowers won’t move Trump’s base, and that means they won’t move Republican lawmakers. He’s safe.

  8. From Interfax, Belarus President Lukashenko at the Minsk Dialogue forum on Ukraine today:
    Experts on both sides “are drawing a horribly realistic picture. For example, Russia and NATO may switch from an accidental local conflict to a nuclear war within a few minutes,” he said.
    Dismantling of the arms control architecture has practically come to the final straight after two key parties to the Intermediate-Range Nuclear-Forces Treaty, the United States and Russia, quit, Lukashenko said. “The New START is the last line,” he said.
    Unless the sides agree to extend this treaty, “the world will have no nuclear arms regulations left” in just a couple of years, Lukashenko said.
    “Humanity is rapidly moving toward the brink of abyss,” he said.

  9. All the usual righteous indignation; the usual shouting and squawking; and as usual, nothing will be done. Trump has this country by the short hairs.
