Interesting thing. ...if no one knows who the whistleblower is, why did Roberts reject the question? Does that mean Roberts knows the whistleblower?

Everyone knows the rumors - including Roberts. He does not want to place himself in the middle of what would happen if he read the question. Can't really blame him.

The proper place for Rand Paul to out the name himself is on the floor of the Senate during normal proceedings - or on Twitter, like he just did.

Agree. Doesn’t make sense at all.

So many Years - months - days - endless hours and so many Gazillion words - an on it goes.
I’m sure someone has asked this by now, but I missed the answer.

If the Joe Biden allegations (and they are the heart of this) are just a “conspiracy theory” then what’s the problem? If Joe & Hunter are innocent; “did nothing wrong” and can prove it (in fact, according to House Mgrs it’s been “debunked” already), then how can Trump’s investigation into vaporous conspiracy theories possibly result in hurting Joe’s candidacy, which if I get the gist, is what they are accusing Trump of doing, intending, almost doing or thinking about doing?

I still think Schiff is the blowhard. I know, I sound totally ridiculous.

That question should have been read. Roberts is NOT fair.

I don't particularly care for Justice Roberts - but he has done a good job thus far in the trial.

My exact question was:

Are you aware that House intelligence committee staffer Shawn Misko had a close relationship with Eric Ciaramella while at the National Security Council together 1/2

Senator Rand Paul
@RandPaul
·
15m
and are you aware and how do you respond to reports that Ciaramella and Misko may have worked together to plot impeaching the President before there were formal house impeachment proceedings. 2/2

Actually he is not outing the whistleblower.
He is asking a questoin about certain people.

So clearly the refusal to ask the question means this dude is the whistleblower

1) I disagree. It should happen in BOTH setting. Its highly relevant to the defenses cases and both should be looked at for criminal investigation if an initial probe looks like it.
2) I have no idea what that second sentence means. Is that ebonics or something?
3) No matter what Bolton says won't change the outcome of the vote. It'll be 53-55 voting one way or the other and you need 67. End this farce and get back to the judges and other business of the day.
4) The media will spin it negatively for Republicans forever and the longer this goes on the more its just negative publicity in the public eye.
5) This charade will continue as long as the Republicans let them. Cut it off now.

I completely agree. I just personally wish that Mitch had shut this down right away and not given the dems another platform - though it does appear to have helped Trump’s support.
