I hope this backfires the way that Sen. McCarthy's televised Army hearings backfired on him. Schiff has the media on his side but that may not be enough.

Kevin McCarthy on "Fox & Friends" this morning was talking about how Schiff has threatened anyone who mentions the whistleblower's name, but since he is the only one who knows for certain the whistleblower's identity, that could mean that the Republicans can't mention anyone's name--how do they know it isn't the name of the whistleblower?

Just say...” I do not know the “whistleblowers” name...but it could be anyone of the following”....then name off about 4 or 5 names including the real whistleblowers name...”could” is not an accusation. Use peter strzock...or Lisa page...or blase ford...vindman...said...etc..as possible WB.

There are a thousand reasons that Eric Ciaramella’s name should come up early and often in this farce. He doesn't have to be called “whistleblower.” Just refer to him in his prior roles in Ukraine business. So Schiff threatens pubbies with ethics charges? I would answer, “Just add it to the list, Mr. Chairman. I could never equal your ethics violations, if I tried.”
