They disclosed to Congress, one of the AUTHORIZED authorities, thus they fit the legal definition of "Whistle blower" according to the two subs I already listed. Really sorry that this is obviously way over your head. But it is written law.

Evidence of what??? WTF are you blabbering about???

You are an absolute I***T!!!

Did you even bother to read your sources???

In particular §7211, which they both refer to.

It's the same EXACT procedure that the so called whistleblower on Trump's Ukraine call followed.

They petitioned Congress. It's been all over the news in case you're so ignorant that you didn't know.

And your opinion is based on that which the Useful I***t Information distribution has few you with.

Try starting here for FACTUAL information: 5 USC 2303

Not sure WTF you're talking about, but they you seldom do either.

I'm not sure where you got your law degree, or how many cases you've worked, but my wife has handled a good many whistleblower and Qui Tam retaliation cases over the years, & she says that every one of these people fall well into the legal definition, as well as US Government employee guidelines, to be whistle blowers.

Problem is, the whole Mueller investigation was initiated based on falsehoods created by Clinton.

And the Dem Useful I***ts, the same one's who were completely duped on the Bulls**t lies of Russian collusion, will be dutifully attacking the report, instead of realizing that they were the dimwits who got played by Clinton, The Dem Party, and their deep state operatives. Heck, most of them are so stupid that they still haven't comprehended the fact that Clinton and her crowd also got caught red handed rigging the Dem primary during that same e******n cycle.

The IRS on Monday removed the “entire investigative team” from its long-running tax fraud probe of first son H****r B***n in alleged retaliation against the whistleblower who recently contacted Congress to allege a cover-up in the case, The Post has learned.

The purge allegedly was done on the orders of the Justice Department, the whistleblower’s attorneys informed congressional leaders in a letter.

“Today the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Criminal Supervisory Special Agent we represent was informed that he and his entire investigative team are being removed from the ongoing and sensitive investigation of the high-profile, controversial subject about which our client sought to make whistleblower disclosures to Congress. He was informed the change was at the request of the Department of Justice,” Mark Lytle and Tristan Leavitt wrote.

The whistleblower, who supervised the H****r B***n probe since early 2020, hasn’t publicly identified the first son as the subject of the case that he says is being brushed under the rug, but congressional sources confirmed it.

“On April 27, 2023, IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel appeared before the House Committee on Ways and Means. He testified: ‘I can say without any hesitation there will be no retaliation for anyone making an allegation or a call to a whistleblower hotline.’ However, this move is clearly retaliatory and may also constitute obstruction of a congressional inquiry,” the lawyers went on.

“Our client has a right to make disclosures to Congress … He is protected by 5 U.S.C. § 2302 from retaliatory personnel actions — including receiving a ‘significant change in duties, responsibilities, or working conditions’ (which this clearly is) because of his disclosures to Congress.

“Any attempt by any government official to prevent a federal employee from furnishing information to Congress is also a direct violation of longstanding appropriations restriction. Furthermore, 18 U.S.C. § 1505 makes it a crime to obstruct an investigation of Congress,” Lytle and Leavitt wrote.

The whistleblower’s team added: “We respectfully request that you give this matter your prompt attention. Removing the experienced investigators who have worked this case for years and are now the subject-matter experts is exactly the sort of issue our client intended to blow the whistle on to begin with.”

The IRS and Justice Department did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

H****r B***n’s legal team and the White House also did not immediately respond.

The whistleblower’s representatives declined to comment further.

H****r, 53, is under investigation for not paying taxes on millions in largely foreign-sourced income.

He was in good spirits Monday and gave journalists a thumbs-up while seated near his dad, President Biden, at the graduation ceremony for his daughter Maisy from the University of Pennsylvania.

The first son wrote in communications retrieved from the abandoned laptop that he paid up to “half” of his income to his father, and H****r frequently involved then-Vice President Biden in his international business relationships.

The whistleblower was ousted from the investigation, along with an unknown number of subordinates, at roughly the same time as the Justice Department released a long-awaited report by special counsel John Durham detailing bias in the FBI’s investigation of former President Donald Trump’s alleged links to Russia.

The more than 300-page report dominated the evening’s news coverage.

The IRS whistleblower emerged last month when Lytle informed Congress that his client wanted to share information about “preferential treatment” in the H****r B***n case and alleged false testimony to Congress by Attorney General Merrick Garland, who repeatedly assured lawmakers that Delaware US Attorney David Weiss can unilaterally make charging decisions in the investigation.

Leavitt, president of the group Empower Oversight, later joined as co-counsel.

The informant, who has yet to appear at the Capitol, already made disclosures to inspectors general at the Justice and Treasury departments.

Just one week after the whistleblower stepped forward, H****r’s attorneys met with Justice Department leaders in a sign that a charging decision may come soon in the tax fraud investigation that reportedly began in 2018.

NBC reported last month that there was “growing frustration” within the FBI over the fact that Weiss, a Trump administration holdover recommended to his post by Delaware’s two Democratic senators, had not yet brought charges against H****r B***n after the bureau concluded most of its work last year.

A different whistleblower informed Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) this month that the FBI has an informant file from 2020 alleging that Joe Biden accepted bribes as vice president. House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) issued a subpoena for it, but last week the FBI refused to give the document to Congress.

H****r confirmed he was under investigation for tax fraud shortly after his father won the 2020 e******n, and he reportedly borrowed about $2 million last year to pay off back taxes, though doing so doesn’t legally absolve him of the original non-payment.

The federal investigation reportedly has looked at whether H****r laundered money, violated the Foreign Agents Registration Act, and lied about his drug use on a gun purchase form.

House Republicans, meanwhile, are investigating President Biden’s role in his family’s overseas dealings, through which H****r B***n and first brother James Biden earned millions from partnerships with wealthy people in countries where their powerful relative held sway.

Joe Biden met with his relatives’ business associates on many occasions — including those from China, Kazakhstan, Mexico, Russia and Ukraine — and House Republicans allege that Biden family members offered no legitimate business services and were merely selling access to the US government.

Order not to put anything in writing "was the most inappropriate operational or professional statement he had ever heard at the FBI," FBI lawyer said.

The FBI’s Operation Crossfire Hurricane was tasked with investigating Russian involvement in the 2016 e******n, yet a major memo sent from the CIA to lead agent Peter Strzok outlining U.S. intelligence that Hillary Clinton may have hatched a plan to frame Donald Trump — which stood to dramatically alter the investigation — simply went missing, according to the blockbuster report from Special Counsel John Durham.

“In late July 2016, U.S. intelligence agencies obtained insight into Russian intelligence analysis alleging that U.S P**********l candidate Hillary Clinton had approved a campaign plan to stir up a scandal against U.S. P**********l candidate Donald Trump by tying him to Putin and the Russians’ hacking of the Democratic National Committee,” the report said.

On September 7, 2016, the CIA wrote a “referral memo” addressed to FBI director James Comey and to the attention of Deputy Assistant Director Strzok saying as much. The information was considered so important that then-CIA Director James Brennan immediately briefed President Barack Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, Attorney General Loretta Lynch, and Comey about it in the Situation Room. Yet not a single FBI employee working for Strzok who was interviewed by Durham could recall seeing it or doing anything with the information.

While the Russian intelligence that was intercepted could have been an “exaggeration or fabrication,” it would have rung true to the FBI agents because they suspected, correctly, that the sources that were feeding them the anti-Trump narrative were being paid by the Clinton campaign or DNC, and caused them to proceed more skeptically.

Some agents expressed “surprise and dismay” to learn from Durham that the FBI had received this intelligence but bosses had seemingly concealed it from them. “For example, the original Supervisory Special Agent on the Crossfire Hurricane investigation, Supervisory Special Agent-1, reviewed the intelligence during one of his interviews with the Office. After reading it, Supervisory Special Agent-I became visibly upset and emotional, left the interview room with his counsel, and subsequently returned to state emphatically that he had never been apprised of the Clinton Plan intelligence and had never seen the aforementioned Referral Memo. Supervisory Special Agent-1 expressed a sense of betrayal that no one had informed him of the intelligence,” Durham wrote.

Clinton’s campaign paid the law firm Perkins Coie, which in turn paid Fusion GPS, which paid dossier author Christopher Steele. Perkins Coie lawyer Michael Sussman also fed the FBI “white papers” pushing the idea that Trump was involved in a conspiracy with Russia, and billed the Clinton campaign for it, the report said.

The idea that Steele was working on a plot for Clinton — rather than being simply a retired British intelligence agent — would have answered nagging questions the investigators had, such as one’s reservation that “what was strange was that [British Intelligence Services] don’t seem to want to deal with the guy.” Another agent assigned to handle Steele said his initial reaction was “disbelief.”

Crossfire Hurricane agents regularly found themselves flummoxed by why they were being pushed aggressively by leadership brass to investigate something that seemed so weak. The agent who became “visibly upset” also said he had “felt like a fool” while investigating “dry holes,” but assumed that “somebody above them” knew of some solid evidence that he did not that guided their decision-making.

He said a colleague felt similarly and would regularly ask, “what are we even doing here?” That colleague told Deputy Assistant Director Jennifer Boone that he did not think there was justification for surveilling Trump aide Carter Page, but “he was largely ignored and directed to continue.”

After analysts determined that the case into wrongdoing by Trump associates was weak, a top FBI official gave the order that nothing should be put in writing on the case, the report said.

“A meeting was then held with Assistant Director Priestap and others. During that meeting, the review team was told to be careful about what they were writing down because issues relating to Steele were under intense scrutiny. Two weeks later, the Deputy Assistant Director for Counterintelligence, Dina Corsi, met with the review team and directed them not to document any recommendations, context, or analysis in the memorandum they were preparing. The instructions, which Headquarters Analyst-3 described as ‘highly unusual,’ concerned the team because analysis is what analysts do,” the report said.

An FBI attorney “remembered being shocked by the directive from Corsi. OGC Attorney-I’s recollection was that Corsi was speaking for FBI leadership, but that she did not say exactly who provided the directive. OGC Attorney-I advised the Office that what Corsi said was not right in any circumstance, and it was the most inappropriate operational or professional statement he had ever heard at the FBI. OGC Attorney-I stated that the directive from Corsi was ‘really, really shocking’ to him and that he was ‘appalled’ by it.”

The Steele dossier itself also went missing for 75 days between when it was received in London and when the dossier made its way to Crossfire Hurricane investigators, Durham wrote. Instead of using that time to validate its authenticity, it was dropped on their lap and they were told to quickly use it to get spy warrants, the report said. No one could explain the delay.

Not a single element of the dossier could ultimately be corroborated by its primary subsource, Igor Danchenko. Yet even as the FBI spent thousands of hours chasing rabbit holes of dubious leads and tangentially related interviews, it made no effort to interview some of the people who could have quickly gotten to the bottom of it, Durham wrote.

That includes Christopher Dolan, a prominent Democrat whose name made Danchenko and others visibly nervous, and who was likely a dossier source. It also includes George Papadapolous, whose vague comment in a London bar was used to open a full investigation instead of simply asking him what he meant, as British intelligence urged the FBI to do.

The FBI also refused to interview Carter Page despite his offer, it said.

Funny thing is, they are too stupid to even realize they were completely mislead and fed a totally false narrative by the party they blindly support, and which they dutifully parroted here and most likely anywhere else they could, proving beyond a doubt, they are truly useful I***TS.

Here's some good quick analysis of the report:

https://technofog.substack.com/p/the-durham-report

Never happen, the Biden DOJ is completely corrupt and will not prosecute anybody connected to the Bidens or his party.

Well it's obvious that the Libs will completely ignore the outright corruption the investigation uncovered.

Turns out Trump was right after all. Turns out the whole Mueller investigation was based on total lies created by the Clinton campaign and carried out by both Dem and deep state operatives.
