Yep, they sure did.
I understand that Trump had a couple phone calls leaked when he first took office. Then Trump had a more secure system put in place to prevent leaks.
Now with a whistle blower not having first hand knowledge of an event they can blow the whistle on hearsay like the Ukraine call.
Now a whistle blower can fabricate an event to suit their political bias.

Thanks JAP. I wonder who changed the rules and if they had department head approval to do so? If not I hope consequences for whomever did it. The same laws/rules should apply as do in a court of law otherwise that gives anyone carte blanche to invent any fictional tale someone cares to fabricate and peddle it as the truth.

This goes into detail on the whistle blower change.

The Democrats are desperate.
They want to make cover for Biden and Crowd strike.
When Trump mentioned crowd strike in the phone conversation the Democrats pooped their knickers. ROFLMAO

Thanks JAP. Since this amounts to national security, I hope it's walked back to previous requirements of firsthand information.

Thanks JAP. Knickers stock just went up I'll bet. Oh well ....

Thanks JAP. They like to make it up as they go along to suit their agenda. We saw the weaponizing of various departments under obama which was a preview of things to come. It needs to be cleaned out, all of it and rule of law restored. People need to have a clear framework to direct their behavior, not a two or three tiered justice system which keeps moving the goal post.

The closer Trump gets to draining the swamp, the more this sort of thing will happen.

Thanks Grwurston. Yes agree.
