President Trump on Friday night fired Michael Atkinson, the inspector general for the intelligence community who had deemed “urgent” a whistleblower’s complaint about the president’s actions on aid to Ukraine.
In a letter to the top Republican and Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, the president said “it is vital that I have the fullest confidence in the appointees serving as inspectors general.”
“That is no longer the case with regard to this inspector general,” Mr. Trump said.
Mr. Atkinson was nominated by Mr. Trump and started in the post in May 2018. In August 2019, Mr. Atkinson received the whistleblower’s complaint alleging that the president had abused his power in soliciting help from Ukraine to undermine Democrat presidential front-runner Joseph R. Biden.

Devin Nunes threatened to refer Atkinson to the DOJ for prosecution.. I think that is what should happen.
KARMA is a Bitch !!! Good Job Trump Cleaning up the SWAMP !!!!
Pelosi is NEXT !!! Then Schumer /Schiff / Nadler Get them the Hell OUT
Atkinson was complicit in arranging changes to forms that permitted the phony whistler to author and share his spiel. The whistler was pals with guy Shiffhead hired the next day. Indictments, trials, convictions, clanging cell doors, lose the key. Please!
Atkinson, in other words, is complicit.
And Schiff lied to everyone.
Straight up the right thing to do!! Get the traitors out of your administration!
Snitches & Backstabbers get Stitches !!! LOL LOL SEE YA !!!!!
