This is getting very very interesting.
Now surfaces an Intel gem from Julian Assanges Wikileaks alleging that the lawyer for Adam Schiffs anti-Trump and Ukraine whistleblower was called out by Wikileaks and Assange for selling out a legal client to the CIA.
And the client ended up in prison, according to Wikileaks.
Wikileaks previouly hurled a brutal and damning Tweet at attorney Mark Zaid accusing him of selling out a client and working with the CIA to get that client locked up.
Sounds familiar.

Lol, that's your argument? 😂 I get new WBer clients every week. In fact, it's overwhelming how many. But thank you for your concern. 🤣
WikiLeaks ✔ @wikileaks
WikiLeaks is aware, from those directly involved, of serious allegations that Mark S. Zaid revealed one of his clients to the CIA. The client was later imprisoned.
Wikileaks and Assange slammed Zaid after he was pontificating about representing whistleblowers in court.
Almost a week later, Zaid responded to the damning Wikileaks accusations:

😂 You do not. Is everyone associated w/Wikileaks nothing other than fabricators or criminals? That "client" still talks w/me. His criminal defense lawyers talk AND work w/me regularly. That they all do specifically points to you as nothing but a single celled unthinking amoeba
Zaids response solicited more criticism, including a Twitter smack down from former CIA operative John Kiriakou who was also imprisoned:

Wrong again, we know who you are, whether we agree or disagree, went to court or did not, whether we support Assange or do not. The whistleblower community knows you & your low bar. Keep telling us folks still talk to you, but remember some just like to keep their enemys close.
John Kiriakou ✔ @JohnKiriakou
You are 100 percent correct. @MarkSZaidEsq is not a whistleblower attorney, his protestations notwithstanding. Any friend or advocate of rats and snitches is no friend of whistleblowers. Just ask #JeffreySterling.

VIENNA: The CIA, using a double-agent Russian scientist, may have handed a blueprint for a nuclear bomb to Iran. State of War by James Risen, the New York Times reporter who exposed the Bush administration’s controversial domestic spying operation, claims the plans contained fatal flaws designed to derail Tehran’s nuclear drive. But the deliberate errors were so rudimentary they would have been easily fixed by sophisticated Russian nuclear scientists, the book said. The operation, which took place during the Clinton administration in early 2000, was codenamed Operation Merlin and “may have been one of the most reckless operations in...
