1. Democrats' Best Laid Plan for Impeachment Has Blown Up Spectacularly
Allow me to paint a picture of my speculation on what seems to have happened and will likely happen.

2. This was a 'spy thriller' of a plan. Get a deep state spook to compile a complaint dossier, of course with the help of lawyers to ensure it passes muster with the IG as an "urgent matter." That way, the planners thought it would have to be rushed to Congressional committees.
3. Except the Acting DNI Maguire quite appropriately sought help from OLC (Office of Legal Counsel) to ensure he had the authority to release it to Congress without a waiver of executive privilege from the President.
4. To Congressional Democrats' chagrin, that delayed the release of the whistleblower complaint. Of course, some in Congress had a pretty good idea of what was in it, but couldn't do anything until it was officially released to them.
5. Prior precedence required DNI to release whistleblower complaints to Congress without waiver of executive privilege. But as Acting DNI Maguire pointed out, all prior cases of whistleblower complaints were about individuals within the intelligence community and hence under DNI.
6. This whistleblower complaint being against the President was unprecedented. Hence Acting DNI took the extra and prudent step of consulting with OLC, which caused a delay in release of the complaint to Congress.
7. But Democrats in Congress had planned on getting the ball rolling on impeachment, triggered by the whistleblower dossier. They counted on having the dossier in hand and spinning it wildly, as they were confident the underlying phone call transcript will not be released.
8. President Trump threw sand in their gears by saying he will release on Wednesday the full, unredacted transcript of his phone call in question. This completely discombobulated the Democrats in Congress, because they knew the call itself did not support their accusations.
9. So what do the Democrats do? They preempt the release of the call transcript by announcing an "impeachment inquiry" on Tuesday, without waiting for the Wednesday release of the call transcript.
10. When Nancy Pelosi was asked what would happen to the impeachment inquiry if the call transcript did not justify it, she said there are Democrats in Congress who are ready with many other allegations to justify an impeachment inquiry. There you have it.
11. Now the released call transcript and the whistleblower complaint have completely blown up the Democratic narrative, as I explained in the below thread.
12. What Democrats are doing to our country and President Trump is shameful and disgraceful. They are hurting the very institutions they are pretending to safeguard. The whistleblower law is good. It is designed to protect us against real abuse of power by those in power.
13. Now the Democrats and the deep state have discredited the whistleblower law by abusing it to gin up another charade to undo the outcome of the 2016 election.
14. The Democratic lapdog MSM will continue to breathlessly propagate the narrative about the whistleblower complaint being a "bombshell." It's nothing of the kind. It's cheap pulp fiction, built upon diabolically partisan editorializing of a presidential phone call ad nauseam.
15. Take it from me, there's no there there. Pox on the plotters.
The End
The End
Democratic House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff started off his hearing today with a parody of President's phone call rather than the real thing whose transcript was sitting right in front of him. He knew this hearing was a fcuking joke.
Somebody Needs to be Impeached Alright -- And It Just Might Be Adam Schiff!
See this thread for signs of seditious collusion in our government to take down the President. This needs to be thoroughly investigated.

Finally, a sensible Democrat, capable of looking at things from outside the bubble.
