‘Greatest farce on Earth!’ Dems will NOT like NY Post’s cover pre-mocking Adam Schiff & company’s impending impeachment hearing circus

Today the House Intelligence Committee will commence with the first impeachment inquiry hearing that will be open to the public and televised. The New York Post seems to have a finger on the pulse of how so many people view the entire process:

Schiff would have worked as the ringleader, a clown, or pretty much anything...

“WHISTLEBLOWER” ACCUSED OF UNETHICAL, POSSIBLY CRIMINAL CONDUCT

Deep State CIA Agent Eric CIAmarella

The ~~whistleblower~~ Democratic Party activist who triggered the Democrats’ impeachment frenzy apparently has set up a GoFundMe page (or had such a page set up by others) that has already collected $227,000. That has led to an ethics complaint against the “whistleblower” that is embedded at the bottom of this post. Fox News reports:

A newly filed complaint to the Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG) alleges that the whistleblower whose allegations touched off House Democrats’ impeachment inquiry may have violated federal law by indirectly soliciting more than a quarter-million dollars from mostly anonymous sources via a GoFundMe page.

The complaint, which was filed last week and obtained by Fox News, alleged the donations from roughly 6,000 individuals “clearly constitute” gifts to a current intelligence official that may be restricted because of the employee’s official position pursuant to 5 CFR 2635.203 and other statutes. To date, the GoFundMe has raised over $227,000.

The complaint also raised the possibility that some of the donations may have come from prohibited sources, and asked the ICIG to look into whether any “foreign citizen or agent of a foreign government” contributed.

Tully Rinckey PLLC, the law firm representing the individual reporting the allegations, is closely guarding the identity of their client, though Fox News is told the individual is the holder of a top-secret SCI security clearance and has served in government.

‘Four Key Pieces of Evidence:’ Republicans Outline Strategy Against Impeachment in New Memo

Republican House members circulated a memo on Nov. 12 outlining “four key pieces of evidence” from the impeachment inquiry against Republican President Donald Trump.

Republicans say the pieces of evidence undercut the claim by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) that the president “jeopardized U.S. national security by pressuring Ukraine to initiate politically-motivated investigations that could interfere in U.S. domestic politics.”

The claim was made concerning Trump’s July phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

“Stripping away the hyperbole and hysteria, these indisputable pieces of evidence show that there was no ‘Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors,’ as required by the U.S. Constitution,” the memo stated.

“These facts are:

“The July 25 call summary—the best evidence of the conversation—shows no conditionality or evidence of pressure; President Zelensky and President Trump have both said there was no pressure on the call; the Ukrainian government was not aware of a hold on U.S. security assistance at the time of the July 25 call; and President Trump met with President Zelensky and U.S. security assistance flowed to Ukraine in September 2019—both of which occurred without Ukraine investigating President Trump’s political rivals.”

Democrats have alleged Trump tried to interfere in the 2020 election by asking Zelensky to “look into” allegations of corruption surrounding former Vice President Joe Biden, who intervened in Ukraine’s political sphere by threatening to withhold $1 billion in aid unless the country’s leadership ousted a prosecutor investigating the energy company Burisma, which employed Biden’s son...
