Some asshole lady said it over the weekend in FOX. But no one on the left will repeat it and I'm glad.

They don't want the name to be verified, as that would cost them all their deceptive hinting that this is a devil or whatever.

...they’re endangering that person and the Whistleblower process as a whole.


Out the wrong person and they endanger a completely innocent person and the Whistleblower process as a whole.

Either way, they identify themselves as assholes and should be exposed to charges. But, this is America, so...

..........that everyone already knows who it is, and, "it's the same guy who was fired from the White House for leaking," and that he's, "tied closely to Biden." Of course, he won't say the name, but just keeps hinting around like it's so obvious to anyone who knows anything. This guy has no insider knowledge, so he's probably just repeating something he heard on right-wing hate radio. They all act like they already know who it is (of course, you know how their know-it-all bluster is designed to make them sound like they know everything and you're idiot who doesn't), but based on the clues they're throwing out, I can't put together even an educated guess.

One thing I'm pretty sure of, though, is that everyone claiming to know who it is............is just guessing like everyone else.

Its all a game for them to try to paint the process as political. It doesn't matter to them if they have the right person as long as they divert from the mountain of evidence that is burying them.
