Whistleblower Contacted Schiff Before Filing Ukraine Complaint

New reporting is indicating that the whistleblower contacted Adam Schiff and the House Intelligence Committee before filing the complaint against President Trump.

This raises questions about Schiff's role in the complaint and if rules were changed within the intel community to make the complaint possible.

According to The Hill:

The CIA officer whose whistleblower complaint is at the center of the impeachment inquiry into President Trump  consulted with the House Intelligence Committee before filing it, The New York Times reported Wednesday.

The whistleblower initially had a colleague convey his concerns that Trump asked Ukraine's leader to intervene in the 2020 presidential election to the CIA's top lawyer before going to Congress, current and former officials told the Times.

The staffer shared part of the whistleblower's concerns with the committee's chairman, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), but did share the person's identity with anyone, according to the Times.

“Like other whistle-blowers have done before and since under Republican and Democratic-controlled committees, the whistle-blower contacted the committee for guidance on how to report possible wrongdoing within the jurisdiction of the intelligence community,” Patrick Boland, a spokesperson for Schiff, told the newspaper.

This new revelation will play into Trump's hands as he continues to allege that the whistleblower and the complaint were motivated by politics.
