I have been attacked, ridiculed, threatened, smeared, and beli | Lin Wood

I have been attacked, ridiculed, threatened, smeared, and belittled simply because I revealed very serious accusations against Chief Justice John Roberts and former VP Mike Pence made by a credible whistleblower with whom I spent several days.

I felt that the whistleblower was credible (i.e., believable) and his accusations needed to be investigated to establish whether they are true.

I would do the same thing over again even knowing the heat I have taken for doing so. We must investigate credible accusations of corruption against our government officials.

Remember the enemy attacks the messenger, especially when the enemy cannot attack the message because the message is true.

I have no plans to ask President Trump to endorse my candidacy for Chair of the South Carolina Republican Party.

I know, as I believe President Trump would recognize, that if he endorses me, he would be attacked for endorsing the messenger of the whistleblower’s accusations against Roberts and Pence as if he had been the messenger instead of me.

I do not want President Trump involved in this issue. He has enough on his plate with which to deal based on lies and misrepresentations by the propaganda media against him.

I am totally comfortable with allowing time to have a law enforcement investigation prove whether the whistleblower’s accusations are true and until that time comes, I am willing to continue to take the heat.

Of course, in order to make that determination, some entity must conduct a thorough investigation which has NOT been done yet.

I guess another option would be to get to the truth in a defamation case filed against me as the republisher of the accusations of the whistleblower. The original publisher - the whistleblower - could also be sued for defamation.

So far, Roberts and Pence have not sued, or threatened to sue, me or the whistleblower. We have not even received a retraction demand claiming the accusations are false.

Just sayin.’
