I know who the whistleblower is:

[PCIntern]

It’s the entire CIA and featuring the other umpteen intelligence agencies.

Did “President” Orangina really think he could impugn these people and their hierarchies? Did he see the film The Good Shepherd? You just don’t fuck with these people and get away with it.

As a child of the Fifties and Sixties I almost can’t believe that I’m cheering for these institutions but I am wholeheartedly.

For comedy’s sake I would suggest that the true individual responsible is none other than::

Miss Anne Elk.

[Skittles]

1. well to be fair

he was able to impugn them for quite some time

[nolabear]

2. Oh I haven't seen that in AGES. I hope Ayn Rand appreciated it.

3. My husband thinks it's either Trump himself or someone on his staff.

Done with his knowledge.

I know tin foil hat... but Hubby is convinced they Syndicate has done what they came to do and are ready to split with the loot.

4. Actually, that sounds as sane and plausible as anything else

Let the Giuliannis and Millers and Pompeos and Cohens of the world take the fall and skedaddle with the goods.

5. Entirely possible -- make someone with credibility problems such as a drug addiction or

a restraining order against them, or some kind of record be the whistle blower so that when his cover is blown, they can contest his veracity.

That's a tactic Rove used when he fed info to J H Hatfield who wrote "Fortunate Son" - the unauthorized bio of Dubya -- Hatfield was a known drug addict who had been arrested. He was found dead in a motel room of "suicide."

6. I think it was an actual CIA operation, get

someone on staff in a White House, find the evidence, round up willing witnesses and lay it all out in a whistleblower complaint. The fact that they mentioned the call being stored on that other server seemed like a blinking neon arrow pointing to it, saying “Look in there! Look in there! That’s where ALL the goods are!”

7. My point Ed Zachary. nt
