it was the anniversary of that day when benjamin franklin came out of independence hall and said, what do we have, a monarchy or a republic? he said a republic, if we can keep it. a republic if we can keep it. on that very day last week, that tuesday, erupted this remarkable set of facts on constitution day. it was about the ig, inspector general, the director of national intelligence saying there was a whistleblower complaint. then we learned that it was going to be blocked from being presented and that the dni was not going to allow it to come forward. so let me just say this. i have more experience and intelligence than anybody in the congress, at least 25 years. i was a member of the committee. i was the top democrat. i was the adam schi ff. that made me a member of the gang of four years ago. then leader and speaker. so i have been there for the writing of the laws for whistle blowers and further protections for them along the way. i was there to -- part of writing the bill to establish the office of the director of national intelligence. that's only since 2004. we didn't have it
