It’s being reported now by Fox News’ Catherine Herridge that the so-called whistleblower never told the Intelligence Community Inspector General about his meeting with Schiff’s intel committee staffers:

Per Catherine Herridge: IC Inspector General told lawmakers the whistleblower did not disclose contact w Schiff/Committee staff – so IG never looked into it. IG “had no knowledge of it”. — Shannon Bream (@ShannonBream) October 4, 2019

Colleague Catherine Herridge rpts ICIG Atkinson told lawmakers the whistleblower did not disclose to the ICI that he contacted Schiff's committee. Atkinson said the whistleblower volunteered he was a registered Democrat — Chad Pergram (@ChadPergram) October 4, 2019







Wow. That’s big because it immediately raises questions as to why the whistleblower would withhold this information from the ICIG.

Was he or she hiding coordination with Democrat staffers on the committee, and even Schiff? Were they instructed by the committee staff or members not to reveal this?

One would think that an honest whistleblower would mention this if he or she had nothing to hide…
