NYT: Whistleblower Is CIA Officer Who Was Detailed To White House

[leftcoaster]

Rudy is day drinking.

There is simply no good reason for any of us to ever know who came forward. Please don’t report this info.

Whatever happened to that Russian spy that helped the US and was living in DC? Who the hell outed him? How easy would it have been for tRump to just give that information to Putin upon request once he was informed and then lock it away in his secret electronic vault? This whole thing is beginning to worry me.

My god he believes it.

Congress, should not go on a two week recess.

“Rudy Giuliani was nearly shouting in my phone call with him. “It is impossible that the whistle-blower is a hero and I’m not. And I will be the hero! These morons—when this is over, I will be the hero, he told me.”

I think Rudy’s periodontist is the real hero – at least in terms of sheer bravery.

two stories in the past 24 hours

Not to mention JOHN YOO’s opinion piece. Made me gag.

Apparently that’s been replaced by “Don’t get it right, just get it written.”

One could make the argument the American people have a right to know

Not sure I agree. Those who have a legitimate reason to serve undercover or with a certain level of anonymity deserve to be respected.

This person has demonstrated where his/her loyalties lie, and it appears to be to the Constitution.

Ask Valerie Plame.

Whoever is taking this information to the NYT needs to be named by the Times.

Would wager any amount of money that NYT’s sources are inside the White House.

It sure strikes me that for someone who stood there and told the UN that globalists aren’t the future, he goes to foreign countries for help way more often than he asks for it at home. Some nationalist Trump is. A Russian nationalist.

1. I hope the CIA has a witness protection program.
2. I hope it is better than the FBI’s.

He talked about crowd size as well.

Schiff did say after the hearing that his committee is working through the recess. Not that they’ll be in session but he’s not taking a vacation. He’ll probably take off for the High Holy Days which begins this Sunday (Rosh Hashanah). He’s Jewish, but I don’t know how religious he is.

Rudy’s wearing a wire…

@catinma

Add to that Maguire’s repeated referral to the whistleblower as “he” and you’ve painted quite a target, and not only on the actual WB and family but even other people who somewhat match the description.

Well if Maguire was woke he would have use “they” but then even though Magurie is a former Navy SEAL I wouldn’t want to be in his shoes when the Grammar Nazi come out to play.

The guy is welcome to stay in my basement, but he better be OK with changing cat litter and folding laundry.

[texastwostep]

Yep!

I loved watching Nunez trying to dig out who the ‘leaker’ was regarding the call.

I kept expecting Schiff to shout , “The White House you idiot!”

[tangodancer]

Very irresponsible and all to get people to click on the article and make money. I cancelled my subscription (finally) 6 months.
