Republican Terror Grows As 1/6 Committee Launches Whistleblower Tip Line
Everything that Republicans feared about a 1/6 investigation is coming true as the House Select Committee has started a whistleblower tip line.
https://www.politicususa.com/2021/07/28/1-6-committee-tip-line.html
"SNIP......
The tip line page on the committee website contains a short message, Chairman Thompson is interested in any information regarding the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol. We respect your need to remain confidential and will use your contact information only to follow up with you regarding your submission.
Republican Congressional Staffers May Have Valuable Information About The Attack
The tip line appears to be a resource for congressional staffers and people who work in the Capitol who may know something about the planning of the attempt to overthrow the government.
It is a signal that the committee is going to be investigating members of Congress along with the Trump administration for potentially providing assistance, aid, and support to the attackers.
......SNIP"

(32,599 posts)A lot of people have moved on since January.
Former staffers who were in Washington in January, well ... I wouldn't be surprised if several of them have left the Party by now. Are they willing to drop a dime on their former bosses? Sure hope so!

(3,522 posts)for the most part. What Im hoping to see is the people behind this, leading all the way up to TFG, exposed, charged and prosecuted. Im afraid that will never happen, and instead well have to settle for a bunch of low intelligence morans being incarcerated while the big fish swim free.
I sincerely hope Im wrong.

(972 posts)Im sure there are staffers (wives, friends, family) of some of. These repulsive people who know this is wrong but never felt they had a safe way to report.
One piece of advice for them: Just use a burner phone and stay safe

Best to dig into this and get to the bottom of it. Or the top, if you like.

(4,167 posts)And that includes Republican staffers, who learned the hard way that their boss may not care who gets caught up the maelstrom that was unleashed.
That kind of revelation tends to erode feelings of party loyalty or deference to authorities.

(81,127 posts)Sheesh - when I first saw Republican Terror Grows, I thought it was gonna be GOP-sponsored terror (as in terrorism). Because by now, they strike me as a terrorist group. Chock full of scheming, wrong-headed, dangerous bad guys, as well as nuts.
I like the idea of the GOP FEELING terror instead of inspiring it, making excuses for it, or ignoring it and pretending it was just a lot of tourist hugs n kisses.
Theyre terrified of being EXPOSED. As they should be. Both terrified AND exposed.
