Has Napolitano always been anti-Trump?https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/judge-andrew-napolitano-brazen-acts-of-corruptionI thought during spygate/fisagate he was pretty strongly backing the president.
He was pro-Trump, and I recall lots of meetings between the two right after Trump was elected. Something seemed to have happened behind the scenes a few months ago, because since then Napolitano has been much more critical of Trump.Napolitano has always struck me as a pretty straight shooter, so it would be interesting to know what caused the rift.
Whatever it was the same thing seems to have happened with the Mooch!bob
According to this Schiff is making up his own version of the transcript as he goesImpeachment Circus: Adam Schiff Kicks Off Intelligence Hearing By Making Up Parts Of the Trump-Ukraine Transcript https://townhall.com/tipsheet/mattvespa/2019/09/26/impeachment-circus-top-democrat-kicks-off-intelligence-hearing-by-making-up-part-n2553753
Schiff is a proven pathological liar.
Schiff later explained that his version of events was simply a "summary of the president's call was meant to be, at least part, in parody."
Liddle’ Adam Schiff sent this tweet out almost a month ago to the day. Trump is withholding vital military aid to Ukraine, while his personal lawyer seeks help from the Ukraine government to investigate his political opponent. It doesn’t take a stable genius to see the magnitude of this conflict. Or how destructive it is to our national security. https://t.co/X4yhTS2q1Z — Adam Schiff (@RepAdamSchiff) August 29, 2019It’s almost like Schiff couldn’t help himself and had to share something he thought he knew … remember when he told the world he had proof that Trump colluded with Russia?This guy is a train wreck.Seriously. Wait a minute. Check this out: Schiff tweeted this exact same Trump-Ukraine "collusion" narrative a month ago. Hmm … Exactly how long have Schiffty-Schiff and Dems been working with this "whistleblower"? Smelling more and more like prefabrication https://t.co/cRXi222Zwi — Paul Sperry (@paulsperry_) September 27, 2019
Rep. Adam Schiff totally made up my conversation with Ukraine President and read it to Congress and Millions. He must resign and be investigated. He has been doing this for two years. He is a sick man! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 27, 2019
...sound horrible, and me sound guilty. HE WAS DESPERATE AND HE GOT CAUGHT. Adam Schiff therefore lied to Congress and attempted to defraud the American Public. He has been doing this for two years. I am calling for him to immediately resign from Congress based on this fraud! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 27, 2019
I also saw a tweet that pointed to a month old tweet by Schiff saying pretty much exactly what he is saying now. Making people wonder how long he has been talking to this whistleblower.
Federal records show that the intelligence community secretly revised the formal whistleblower complaint form in August 2019 to eliminate the requirement of direct, first-hand knowledge of wrongdoing.
https://thefederalist.com/2019/09/27/intel-community-secretly-gutted-requirement-of-first-hand-whistleblower-knowledge/Changing this rule makes little sense. How can someone be a whistleblower if they have no direct knowledge of what happened? Why should someone get legal protection for reporting rumors they heard about?
At long last the call ended when Trump threatened to withhold military aid unless Zelenskey hung up first.

Damned convenient that.
The Ukraine whistleblower was actually provided this language, according to the new statement, so it wasn’t eliminated for his benefit. And again, when he filed his form he marked that he had both first- and secondhand knowledge, so a requirement of firsthand knowledge wouldn’t have mattered anyway — whether it was an actual policy or just an erroneous sentence on an informational sheet. But man, what a train wreck.
"I want the American people to know what that phone call was about. I want them to hear, it. So yeah it’s fair," Pelosi said Thursday on "Good Morning America." "It’s sad, but it's using the president’s own words," she added."But those weren't the president's words, it was an interpretation of the president's words. They're saying he made this up," he replied. “He did not make it up,” Pelosi insisted.
