Earlier this morning, the impeachment investigation against President Donald Trump received new ammunition, as congress released the unclassified whistleblower complaint to the public. It detailed Trump's communications with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, asserting he sought help in the 2020 election and that White House officials tried to"lock down" evidence of the conversation.
While the story may help the whistleblower's credibility with Congress, it does nothing to help his anonymous status, many individuals said via Twitter, news outlets and op-eds. "His/her life is now in danger," wrote Connie Keys in response to Peter Baker, chief White House correspondent for"Why are you putting a target on this person's back?" tweeted Simon Melktert."The criminal-in-chief threatened him/her this morning," he said.The CIA declined to comment on thestory, and lawyers for the whistleblower also warned outlets about publishing such information.
"Any decision to report any perceived identifying information of the whistleblower is deeply concerning and reckless, as it can place the individual in harm's way," Andrew Bakaj, lead counsel for the whistleblower, told theTom Mueller, author of a forthcoming book on whistleblowing in the U.S.
due process says who is this accuser
That look and body language!
THIS is the way democrats take care of leakers, NOT republicans. If this story was turned around in the other direction, liberals & the media would have already released the whistleblower’s name & address. Republicans are not sinister like that. Evil lives on the DNC side.
His life is at risk because Trump wants him dead.
Our mission at is to build the social media platform that ends fake news
Well we already know he/she was politically biased. I’d imagine more links to the Democrats would be brought to light.
sukimoto1000 ...releasing 5 bad as.... for 1 traitor....all 5 are back in action...trying to kill AMERICANS.... PAST 8 concerned about National Security...HMMMMMMM...
Valerie Plame is still alive. This is nonsense.
lol
The whistleblower's life is definitely in danger. We need that person so don't screw it up!
DNC Propaganda Machine.....
Probably worried he has stuff on others in the Democrat party too..Both sides a bunch of crooked MFs..Need a good independent to run..What is sad the impeachment investigation will take longer then if they would let the lame duck president term just end
Hmmmmm could the “whistle blower” be Obama himself? What a thought.
How does revealing the name of the so called WHISTLE BLOWER threaten him!!
I agree but the government does need to make sure civics lessons and mental health counseling is available to them. It must be traumatic going from individual to individual to piece together an anonymous complaint
Patriot or traitor?
The Democrats want to impeach a president for trying to expose a crime, and then elect the person who committed
Reminds me of when Valerie Plame was outed.
Trump has told Americans how he wants that person dead.
The Democrats are anti-America. They want a globalist/socialist government in America. They will tax everyone in America to death. The Demonrats are communists like AOC and Bernie.
Obama is a private citizen..
Patriot?
doesn't it say in the constitution that a defendant has the right to confront his accuser
MarfanSyndrome1 Imagine having to beg the media to conceal a “source” ...
nytimes remember when you had fits with Castro for giving public information on donors... Why would you put this person's life at risk!
Patriot... spy is more appropriate
...так лучше?...
Something could happen to them because no one knows who the person is, people would think twice before harming them if they think people know who the person is and are they being secretly watched and protected.
The odor grows each day
Yeah right.... So many lies so far just make up a name of something
