Eric Ciaramella, the alleged Ukraine whistleblower, was long suspected of deliberately attempting to damage President Trump's foreign policy from the inside and had access to policy information far beyond his regional expertise, according to former National Security Council officials.
Ciaramella, 33, a career CIA analyst, was Ukraine director on the NSC toward the end of the Obama administration and stayed there during the first few months of the Trump administration, when he was acting senior director for European and Russian affairs and then special assistant to Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster, who was Trump's national security adviser, until he left the White House in summer 2017.
Now a deputy national intelligence officer for Russia and Eurasia on the National Intelligence Council, Ciaramella is suspected of being the official who filed a complaint about a July 25 phone call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Democrats are pursuing the impeachment of Trump, accusing him of linking Ukrainian military aid to investigating corruption related to business dealings by former vice president Joe Bidens son Hunter Biden.
The person that I always felt extremely uncomfortable around was Eric Ciaramella. He was one of the few guys around who seemed to know where the filing cabinets were, so to speak, one former official told the Washington Examiner, adding that Ciaramella was antagonistic at an early Trump administration gathering when it was said that the goal was to turn Trumps campaign promises and platform into policy.
When the issue of Ukraine was brought up at a policy meeting, Ciaramella mentioned aid to Ukraine. He became visibly upset, the official recounted, when he was told that Trump would review Ukraine policy and that it would likely not be the same as President Barack Obamas.

An OBAMA CIA “career” analist.
EVERYthing?! Really eh-ric? EVERYthing?! Well eh-ric you turn coat POS,-———FA-Q!
“Whistleblower,” Eric Ciaramella, was acting as a spy. If proved true, he should be charged with treason. That should be grounds for the death penalty.
Derp State traitor and coup plotter. Trump is the whistleblower.
Devestating articlee! One of the HOTEST yet, about the Leaker Period, right next to the OVAL.
Trump & Company, wink.wink. Set these seditionist b@$#%^&* up to flush, pretty darned well.
Easier each day now to look back and see how the media assassination squads ran with all those leaks, and this is getting to the top, when it includes the NSC in the West Wing.
I believe the Show has finally started. I’m full of the popcorn already, and anxious to Fast Forward DeC.
Amen, babe! A little of Trump’s rope for those narcissists and look at 3 dopes and what a little time coughs up. At last, and more coming for the holiday(s).
In one day.. Tillerson, Kelly, and “Charlie”.
Well, how about that!?
Sickening at all the traitorous bastards among the Deep state....He needs to be made an example by full prosecution of his ass! Only by sending someone like him to jail for the rest of his miserable life will it finally get thru to other SOBs that we are tired of people who think they are above the law!
Bad boy
Eric the Charlie
Career Officer ... age 33. Hmmmph!
Not old enough to be president, but he imagines himself to be.
They are falling like flies today, that’s for sure, and we’re talking C L O S E proximity to the POTUS, inside the White House!
Trump 2020, in a Land Slide.
I think the delay was related to Several investigations that were afforded plenty of time to go deep and wide, to take so blasted long, but, also they were given time to do at least a couple of things.. 1) be thorough and, 2) Awaken the country and RE-ELECT POTUS.
Thank God. People are rightfully engaging their Fury.
Thank you. Very informative article.
Not only “career officer at 33”, but get this:
“...senior director for European and Russian affairs and then special assistant to Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaste...”
No wonder he thinks himself some kind of special. Used tool and don’t even know it.
He needs an immediate application of Arkanside.
How does one become a "career" CIA analyst at the age of 33? Did he start working for the CIA at the age of 10? Or was he swiftly promoted in the CIA because of who he knew and blew?
It's the Millenial way. In today's workplace, Millenials pout if they are not promoted to a corporate vice president after 3 years on the job.
