Rand Paul outs the whistleblower - 2 questions

[DougBH]

@TommyLucchese

@DougBH

What is “it”?
A recorded conversation in April 2018? Yes “it” happened.

What did the president say in that conversation?

You are the one referencing the conversation seemingly as evidence of something and you don’t know what was said?

1. Why did he do this? What is the point of it? The only thing that comes to mind is, he wants this whistleblower to pay a price for doing what they thought was the right thing. Can anyone offer a different explanation?

2. What does everyone here think of this? Seems like a violation of the law to me. I used to enjoy Rand Paul’s take on things - and I agree with some libertarian stances - but in the trump era he has become increasingly…odd.

Eric Ciaramella

Eric Ciaramella‘s name has been out since days after this nonsense started. The pretense that Paul outed anybody is laughable, and likely the point he was making.

What a ■■■■ article.

Seems like a violation of the law to me

Why?

@STODR

What law did he violate?

That’s a good question - is violating the confidentiality requirements of the whistleblower act in and of itself ‘breaking the law’?

I would think it is, but I don’t really know.

What confidentiality requirements?

@tnt

A civil servant saw

No. Stop right there.

@tnt

his superiors.

And the republicans who read his report.

Who is his superiors? Which republicans read his report?

The ICIG who determined the report was credible is a Trump appointed Republican. How do you not know that?

Because he did…

@conan

Don’t you want to know the truth behind what driven this faux impeachment?

Why not compromise with me and at least find out why. Make that information transparent. What is left hiding?

And no it’s is not illegal.

We found out why from more than a dozen witnesses who corroborated and shared the WB concerns.

No we didn’t.

@Jamerican

Rand Paul outing the accuser opens the window for such retaliation

No it doesn’t.

@Sknyluv

@Paul_Thomson

So people can research his connections to the main players in the various impeachment strategies that began to be devised before Trump’s inauguration and have continued unabated ever since.

The whistleblowers story has already been corroborated. Many times over.

No it hasn’t.

[WuWei]

It is already in doubt.

@Smyrna

How do you know that? Even Schiff doesn’t know who he is? He said so…over and over.

Shawn Misko does

[Sknyluv]

@WuWei

No it hasn’t.

Sure thing.

@hindsight

Shame on all the posters here that keep spreading and repeating this persons name.

There’s a reason why whistleblower protections exist.

you guys really believe it’s like witness protection.

Where is Richard Armitage? Has anyone seen Cheney?

Why?

TDS…

@Guvnah

TDS…

TDS is why Trump supporters want to have the whistleblower testify, even though the whistleblower has been corroborated 10 times over. So much so that Republican senators are saying Trump did it.
