Impeachment witnesses can expect abuse, death threats, say survivors of past political scandals

John Dean entered the witness protection program. Valerie Plame feared for her children.

Both are veterans of U.S. political scandals that threatened the White House, and they have a warning for the witnesses who are testifying against President Donald Trump in the current public impeachment hearings. Life is about to change, it could get ugly, and death threats will become routine.

But Linda Tripp’s name can be broadcast every 2 minutes and shouted from loudspeakers on helicopters, and that’s hunky-dory.

[MNJohnnie]

Same old Democrat Fascist party lie for the new Democrat Fascist party clown show.

Here is an idea. Stop being lying Fascist scum trying to overturn the duly elected Government of the USA and thwart the will of the voters.

If you don’t like the policy of the US Govt try winning the election next time you Fascist wanna bees

Plame, a former CIA covert operations officer

Plame is such a drama queen. Hey Val, if you park your car everyday in the CIA parking lot, you're not really covert.

Yet, the only two politicians who have been attacked with deadly force were Republicans - Scalise and Rand Paul.

I’m sure Scooter feels her pain.

[madison10]

The “witnesses” are frauds and liars.

[Zuben Elgenubi]

John Dean entered the witness protection program. Valerie Plame feared for her children.

Q: Which one is the CIA agent?

A: They both are.

[LeonardFMason]

BINGO!!!!!

[Do_Tar]

Boy. They have it almost as bad as if they wore a MAGA hat!

[Pete from Shawnee Mission]

Humm.

Conceptual and imagined violence as opposed to the actual violence that people wearing MAGA hats experience.

[Chgogal]

As far as I am concerned, yesterday’s debacle proves that DC needs to be shut down.

[eyeamok]

They should be more worried about the Seditious Conspiracy to Overthrow the United States Presidency they entered into.

If I was AG Barr, being as suspicious as I am, the very second it came out that Adam Schiff and Staff met with this SPY Before He filed the Complaint, I would have secured a FISA Warrant and owned every communication they have made for 5 years, and I guarantee you this was all coordinated and orchestrated beforehand.

[NTHockey]

I have no sympathy for anyone who is a party to overthrowing our government. Dean, Plame and the rest of the coupsters deserve whatever they get.

Too harsh? Nah, I’m just warming up.

[MNJohnnie]

I am thinking DC is in serious needed of an enema.

[marktwain]

Plame should have gone to jail for conspiracy and false statements to undermine the President. At minimum, she should have been fired.

[goldstategop]

Democrats are literally up the Schiff creek without a paddle.

[DIRTYSECRET]

Look at the bright side. What doesn’t kill you will make you stronger.

[Luke21]

“But rallying to the president’s defense can pay dividends.”

Ask Flynn and Roger Stone about that.

[elpadre]

Witnesses who lie and defame should expect backlash and I hope they receive it.
