Democrats are in a panic as the secret identity of their fabled whistleblower has been revealed and it shows they are not unbiased.
The identity of the whistleblower has been referred to as an “open secret” in Washington, D.C., but now that name could be known to everyone, Real Clear Investigations reported.
But the name of a government official fitting that description — Eric Ciaramella — has been raised privately in impeachment depositions, according to officials with direct knowledge of the proceedings, as well as in at least one open hearing held by a House committee not involved in the impeachment inquiry. Fearing their anonymous witness could be exposed, Democrats this week blocked Republicans from asking more questions about him and intend to redact his name from all deposition transcripts.
RealClearInvestigations is disclosing the name because of the public’s interest in learning details of an effort to remove a sitting president from office. Further, the official’s status as a “whistleblower” is complicated by his being a hearsay reporter of accusations against the president, one who has “some indicia of an arguable political bias … in favor of a rival political candidate” — as the Intelligence Community Inspector General phrased it circumspectly in originally fielding his complaint.
Federal documents reveal that the 33-year-old Ciaramella, a registered Democrat held over from the Obama White House, previously worked with former Vice President Joe Biden and former CIA Director John Brennan, a vocal critic of Trump who helped initiate the Russia “collusion” investigation of the Trump campaign during the 2016 election.

Why would you keep an Obama/Rice/Brennan plant in the White House? This is stupid beyond belief.
There is an obscure agency in the WH responsible for presenting names for all the administration’s appointee candidates. Trump did not have the experience to bring his own names to the table, so he is stuck with Obama’s choices from prior administration. And Obama was careful to make a clean sweep by firing all aides and the recommending agency personnel when he came on board.
No clue. I found that photo when I did an image search on his name. There was no description with the image.
Think pajama boy.
Scary in their hatred and willingness to overthrow their own country.
Wow! Looks like Eric Ciaramella was a DNC bagman while working for the NSC , having been seconded to the NSC from the CIA.
I expect he will be interviewed by Deputy AG Durham, and he will be forced to appear before a grand jury.
Another inexplicable suicide coming up...
