The calls are coming from inside the house

'Anonymous' Trump official calls for voting him out of officehttps://thehill.com/homenews/administration/512397-anonymous-calls-for-voters-to-elect-biden


The anonymous Trump administration official who wrote a bombshell New York Times op-ed about resistance efforts within the White House is urging voters to make President Trump a one-term president in a new update to their tell-all book.

As reported by Politico on Monday, the author tells readers in the preface to a new edition of their 2019 bestseller “A Warning” that the president’s reelection “will mean a nation undone” and lead to “a continued downward slide into social acrimony, with the United States fading into the background of a world stage it once commanded, to say nothing of the damage to our democratic institutions.” 
“Character must determine our vote, for it will determine the course of our nation. There should be no higher criterion to voters in this election — not sentiment or circumstance, not personality or political ideology, not egos or economics,” the author reportedly writes in the new edition, set for release Tuesday.

The author reportedly urges other administration officials to use their platforms to speak in a “season of candor” as November inches closer while also warning that “the ranks of advisors who tell the president what he needs to hear, instead of what he wants to hear have thinned.”

They also reportedly address the topic of their identity, saying they plan to make themselves known in “due course.” The author had said back in November that they planned to reveal their identity soon.

LMAO. Your subject title reminded me of that horror film from a long time ago where the babysitter kept getting scary phone calls and it turns out they were coming from inside the house. Neat premise..........until you thought about it and realized that you can't pick up a connecting phone in the house, dial your number and have it ring on another extension, lol.

Yep, that's where it's from. Scariest line in movie history IMO, until you ruined it for me!! :-)

Actually, couldn't it have been a separate line? Back before cell phones, some houses had what they called "teen" lines.

I guess its possible, but highly irregular. Lets say that's what happened, I like that.   I remember I was about 9 years old watching it and when the police called after putting on a trace and said: "Get out!! The calls are coming from inside the house!!" I was like hoooooly fuuuuuuudge. Blew away my 9 year old brain, lol. Its hard for kids today to understand that you could call someone and prank/scare them back in the day and they wouldn't know where the call came from. No caller ID. No *69 yet.
