I highly suggest reading the whistleblower's account firsthand and then taking in commentary when you are finished (this is very much the historian in me saying this but it's a hell of a document) intelligence.house.gov/uploadedfiles/…
It is a straight up lie that the allegations in the complaint are separate from the memo of the call, as Rep. Turner said. Again, I suggest everyone read the complaint so they have a working knowledge of this stuff from the source.

Reading old SI articles is a trip. From a piece in 1993: "Former Houston coach John Jenkins, it came to light last winter, spliced footage of bare-breasted women into practice film. (You know, "Win one for the Stripper," and all that.)"
Oh, wow. 1993 didn't even know: "And Paterno's career at Penn State has been sullied by a spate of off-the-field incidents involving Nittany Lions, all duly recorded in the central Pennsylvania press."

Can we talk for a minute about my senator -- @JohnCornyn -- and his response to Dr. Ford? "There are some gaps there that need to be filled," he said today, referring to Dr. Ford's account from the early 1980s and her testifying publicly next week.
“The problem is, Dr. Ford can’t remember when it was, where it was, or how it came to be," @JohnCornyn says. IS THAT THE PROBLEM?
