Reassure me that there is NO CHANCE of this blowing up or back on us?
That is...does anyone else find it as least odd that 1) drumpf is willing to release transcript (though it will highly likely be doctored); and 2) unanimous vote in Senate to forward whistleblower complaint to Comms?

I don't understand the apparent "forthcomingness" of republicans on the 2 issues i itemized.

(18,486 posts)Even if there's nothing in the whistleblower report - which is unlikely since Pelosi and Schiff aren't gullible fools - Pelosi has made it clear that the impeachment inquiry isn't limited to just the report. She's authorized a wide-ranging investigation by six different committees - an unprecedented occurrence.
If Trump and his minions think that they can slide by just by claiming there's no there there to the report, they've got another think coming.

(24,760 posts)in the whistleblower report and the call was as expected.
Why not wait until Asst DNI testifies on Thursday and the info is out there?
They must have inside info...
The last 3 years have spooked me. Every time it looked clear it was going down, we had it pulled out from underneath of us.

(20,709 posts)It is indeed odd that Trump is willing to release the transcript and the complaint. It's also odd that the Republicans in the Senate have voted to release the complaint. I've been watching MSNBC and haven't seen anyone come up with a satisfactory answer.
