No worries, the lawyer is on the list, too.
Fast forward Lincoln to today and add to newspapers TV and radio stations and networks and the internet.
There is no reason whatsoever to keep the identity of the "whistleblower" hidden, except to cover up Leftist perfidy and sedition. President Trump does NOT fall under the whistleblower statutes, and neither does the whistleblower.
As proof, if his lawyers could have sued to prevent anyone from declaring his identity including people like Rush Limbaugh, Dan Bongino, or Mark Levin, they would have done it, but...they don't. Because they can't.
The ideology and intentions of the "whistleblower" are not only fair game, but in this environment where the lawyer himself states the "coup has started", they are paramount.
One more thing-his idiot lawyer defends his statement:
"...Those tweets were reflective and repeated the sentiments of millions of people,” Zaid said. “I was referring to a completely lawful process of what President Trump would likely face as a result of stepping over the line, and that particularly whatever would happen would come about as a result of lawyers. The coup comment referred to those working inside the Administration who were already, just a week into office, standing up to him to enforce recognized rules of law...“
I know that the person graduating LAST in his or her class in law school is called "Attorney", but this guy must have been scraping the bottom of the barrel.
A "coup" is not a legal process. It is strictly illegal and he should be prosecuted for sedition, as many on the Left should be.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
COVFEFE
Translation (from the Russian):
So, F off
I like that plan but it has to include CNN/MSNBC.
If he doesn't qualify as a whistleblower, he and his informants need to be arrested for spying/treason.
