“Heard it from a friend who<\/em><\/strong>
\nHeard it from a friend who<\/em><\/strong>
\nHeard it from another you been messin’ around…”<\/em><\/strong>
\n– REO Speedwagon<\/strong><\/p>\n

President Donald Trump obliterated the anonymous CIA whistleblower’s complaint of messin’ around with Ukraine by releasing a verbatim transcript of his call with the Ukrainian president.<\/p>\n

Sadly, it isn’t a coincidence that another whistleblower popped up almost immediately.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Cue “Pop Goes the Weasel.”<\/p>\n

According to multiple sources, the second whistleblower claims they can speak “directly” concerning events about the president’s conversation<\/span><\/strong><\/a> with Ukraine.<\/p>\n

That’s what the first whistleblower claimed, too – until it was later learned that his\/her formal complaint was based on secondhand and third-hand sources.<\/p>\n

That isn’t whistleblowing as much as spitting in the wind<\/span><\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

How do we know that Whistleblower #2 isn’t just whistling Dixie regarding what they claim they know? We don’t, but that doesn’t stop the mainstream media from reporting it as gospel.<\/p>\n

“Whistleblower Gate” is the same chicanery the Democrats used when trying to block Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination<\/span><\/strong><\/a> last fall.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

First it was psychologist and statistics professor Christine Blasey-Ford who played the odds by making unsubstantiated allegations against Kavanaugh.<\/p>\n

Next up in joining the muckraking mosh pit was Kavanaugh’s Yale classmate Deborah Ramirez, and finally, 15-minutes of fame diva Julie Swetnick did her cannonball into the corruption cesspool – before recanting.<\/p>\n

See the pattern? #MeToo.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Now we have a similar game plan with the Ukrainian phone call imbroglio.\u00a0 When the Deep State narrative begins to lag<\/span> <\/a><\/strong>and the pendulum of doubt starts to swing the other way, Democrats trot out another whistleblower to back up the story of the earlier whistleblower(s).<\/p>\n

Former State Department employee and whistleblower Peter Van Buren says that’s an old CIA trick called a “feedback loop.”<\/p>\n

“Essentially what you do is you set up one of your sources to back up another source and you make it appear that your initial source is more credible by feeding information into the loop. That\u2019s what seems to be going on here. They\u2019re re-purposing a witness as a second whistleblower,” he told Tucker Carlson Oct 7.<\/p>\n

Van Buren called it a \u201cthree way pitch-and-toss\u201d between the Deep State whistleblowers, the Democrat Party and the mainstream media.<\/p>\n

That may be one name for the Deep State’s reprehensible behavior, but here’s another one:\u00a0 “impeachable.”<\/p>\n

Thanks for reading Dean Riffs. Welcome to those who love American liberty, free enterprise, and who believe God has blessed our country.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
