It seems as if Mr. Luft sought “whistleblower” standing from you in an effort to defend himself from legal prosecution whereas a fugitive from justice.

These current revelations naturally elevate broader considerations concerning the credibility and motivations of different purported whistleblowers that Congressional Republicans have relied on to assist unfounded and baseless allegations. Sadly, the Luft episode severely undermines the credibility of the crucial operate of whistleblowers on this physique. We additional word that you’ve got refused to share any paperwork or data that you’ve got obtained from Mr. Luft with Oversight Committee Democrats. Given your personal public endorsements of Mr. Luft’s data, there isn’t any believable foundation so that you can withhold from Committee Democrats any and all data that Mr. Luft has offered to the Committee, together with any data that led you to conclude that he’s “a really credible witness” regardless of being underneath indictment and a fugitive from justice.
As a way to shield the Congress’s institutional credibility and to reassure the American those who the CCP just isn’t utilizing Republicans’ investigations as a car to undermine the US authorities, we urge you to instantly provoke an investigation into whether or not the Committee might have been unwittingly duped by Mr. Luft in furtherance of the CCP’s pursuits, in addition to any doubtlessly false statements made by Mr. Luft to Members of Congress or congressional workers.

How massive of a failure does a committee chair must be that the man members of his committee are calling for an investigation into whether or not or not he was duped by a fugitive?
Comer has been an epic embarrassment since Republicans formally took again the Home, and he turned the chair of the Oversight Committee.
Rep. Comer seems to be working underneath the impression that info don’t matter. If he can provide you with sufficient sensational allegations, finally, one thing will keep on with President Biden and assist Trump win the 2024 election. I’ve been protecting nationwide politics since 2004, and I can’t keep in mind a request like this ever being made by a congressional committee of its chair.
If Comer had any disgrace, he can be humiliated. He’s standing with a fugitive who dedicated crimes towards the US.
Rep. Comer is both a buffoon or corrupt, and each choices ought to disqualify him from chairing the Oversight Committee.
