Republican Terror Grows As 1/6 Committee Launches Whistleblower Tip Line

Everything that Republicans feared about a 1/6 investigation is coming true as the House Select Committee has started a whistleblower tip line.

https://www.politicususa.com/2021/07/28/1-6-committee-tip-line.html

"SNIP......

The tip line page on the committee website contains a short message, “Chairman Thompson is interested in any information regarding the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol. We respect your need to remain confidential and will use your contact information only to follow up with you regarding your submission.”

Republican Congressional Staffers May Have Valuable Information About The Attack

The tip line appears to be a resource for congressional staffers and people who work in the Capitol who may know something about the planning of the attempt to overthrow the government.

It is a signal that the committee is going to be investigating members of Congress along with the Trump administration for potentially providing assistance, aid, and support to the attackers.

......SNIP"

1. Looking for the next Deep Throat.

I think more than a few people know some things.

[FakeNoose]

26. Makes you wonder why this took so long

A lot of people have moved on since January.

Former staffers who were in Washington in January, well ... I wouldn't be surprised if several of them have left the Party by now. Are they willing to drop a dime on their former bosses? Sure hope so!

[SheltieLover]

2. Superb move!

[Grasswire2]

3. YEAH!! nt

[Omnipresent]

4. Can we use the firing squad idea, trump wanted to implement?

It would certainly help, to put those rabid animals from Jan6th., out of their misery.

[NurseJackie]

36. Someone at the insurrection built a gallows... is it still available?

[Omnipresent]

40. Well, they somehow ended hanging themselves with it.

The FBI dragnet, brings in 3 of those rabid animals a day...even family men!

[NurseJackie]

41. You explained it perfectly.

[robbob]

39. Look, those "rabid animals" who raided capital are mere pawns,

for the most part. What I’m hoping to see is the people behind this, leading all the way up to TFG, exposed, charged and prosecuted. I’m afraid that will never happen, and instead we’ll have to settle for a bunch of low intelligence “morans” being incarcerated while the big fish swim free.

I sincerely hope I’m wrong.

[EYESORE 9001]

5. Whistleblowers are no longer subject to threats from Cheeto Benito

I hope at least some of them tell what they know.

[lagomorph777]

6. Yes! Yes! Yes!

Make it so!

[gab13by13]

7. I like it,

bypassing Chris Wray.

[Tadpole Raisin]

8. Let them shake in their boots!

I’m sure there are staffers (wives, friends, family) of some of. These repulsive people who know this is wrong but never felt they had a safe way to report.

One piece of advice for them: Just use a burner phone and stay safe

[SallyHemmings]

44. Or the invisible White House staff

The wait staff who bring TFG his 20 diet cokes and cheeseburgers or the secret service who has had enough..

[Comfortably_Numb]

9. Ruh rho bang bang Boebert... I hope you didn't give your staffers explosive diarrhea from

your poison sliders. Karma might just just whoop your idiot ass…

[orangecrush]

10. KICK

[JHB]

11. On the other hand, expect it to be clogged with fake calls from sTrumpets...

...and assorted east-European "tipsters".

[bucolic_frolic]

14. They should apply laws about wire fraud and false tips

and arrest and fine those liars for breaking those laws. We still have statutes about wire and electronics communication fraud in the U.S.A.

[bucolic_frolic]

12. I suspect many told tales out of school about Jan 6

Hopefully their families and friends will cough up the traitors so that justice may prevail.

[sheshe2]

13. Kool 😊

[Wounded Bear]

15. Probably a lot of staffers seeing what their bosses are doing...

and shaking in fear. A huge bullet was dodged on 1/6, the next one might not fail.

Best to dig into this and get to the bottom of it. Or the top, if you like.

[Hekate]

16. "Republican terror"? Please let it be so; they've terrorized the rest of us far too long! nt

[monkeyman1]

17. repuk's better lawyer up !! the proverbial -" shit about to hit thy fan " !

[C Moon]

18. I don't know how deep this goes, but I wouldn't be surprised

if we start seeing people falling out of tall buildings or disappearing and being found dead in a lake.

[Random Boomer]

19. Staffers were put in danger...

And that includes Republican staffers, who learned the hard way that their boss may not care who gets caught up the maelstrom that was unleashed.

That kind of revelation tends to erode feelings of party loyalty or deference to authorities.

[ashredux]

20. Go to jail, go directly to jail, do not pass go, and there ain't no money

[Chakaconcarne]

21. Brilliant!!

[electric_blue68]

22. Oh?! Ooooooooooo!!! 😄 👏 ❤️

Let's go!

[Stuart G]

23. It Ain't Over Till It's Over....& ...It Ain't Over!!!!... K and R...More To Come..

And, You Will Know When It is Over.............................................................................

....

[Joinfortmill]

24. Good

[Mickju]

25. Excellent!!!

[Bo Zarts]

27. As we would say in Vietnam:

FUCKING A!

[NoSheep]

28. Yesssssssssssss!

[Pepsidog]

29. I have a tip for republicans, leave the country A'holes.

[hadEnuf]

30. Not so funny now.... is it, you treasonous assholes....

[DENVERPOPS]

31. Charges of treason would be good

Hell, all Benedict Arnold did was to offer to the british west point as his act of Treason

Trump and Republican Buttwads were trying to give the entire U.S. nation and Democracy to Putin.......................

[iluvtennis]

32. Wonderful! n/t

[dianaredwing]

33. I have a sneaking suspicion

That this was Nancy's plan all along. I hope she is gloating mightily and someone takes her out for an expensive dinner tonight.

[calimary]

34. Oh EXCELLENT!!!

Sheesh - when I first saw “Republican Terror Grows,” I thought it was gonna be GOP-sponsored terror (as in terrorism). Because by now, they strike me as a terrorist group. Chock full of scheming, wrong-headed, dangerous bad guys, as well as nuts.

I like the idea of the GOP FEELING terror instead of inspiring it, making excuses for it, or ignoring it and pretending it was just a lot of “tourist hugs ‘n’ kisses”.

They’re terrified of being EXPOSED. As they should be. Both terrified AND exposed.

[mnhtnbb]

35. Finally, an opportunity for the hundreds of Congressional staffers to be heard

along with those who may have been too afraid to sign their names. Remember the letter they wrote to the Senators about Trump and his role in the event of January 6th?

[lunatica]

37. Maybe it was done because so many people have wanted to come forward

I bet that’s the reason. Love of country is in play here. Patriotism. A solid character foundation of respect for the law and of right and wrong.

[MontanaMama]

38. Let's hope this tip line works a little better

than the FBI tip line for Judge Boof. Please.

[Rabrrrrrr]

42. Hilarious! Yes!!!

Woot!!!

[JohnnyRingo]

43. Everybody has someone who doesn't like them.

Only in the obit page is someone well loved by everyone they met, and this tip line will be the perfect outlet for that disdain. The only thing better is: ...reward for information leading to arrest and conviction.
