Explainer: Is it illegal for Trump or Congress to name the impeachment whistleblower?

The whistleblower’s lawyers said in a statement on Wednesday that efforts to identify their client “will place that individual and their family at risk of serious harm” and will deter future whistleblowers.

Notably, the 2014 law ultimately puts the president in charge of enforcing the whistleblower protections.

A whistleblower act that does not protect the whistleblower is a meaningless piece of paper. A whistleblower is somebody who performs a public service. They do not act as judge and jury. They raise concerns and pass them on to senior people who then make a decision. In which case their identity being known is not necessarily in the public interest.

I can understand Trumps curiosity about this, he sees it as a betrayal, but as soon as the complaint is lodged the whistleblowers work is done.

But the US is a hugely violent and partisan society. Anonymity for a whistleblower is essential. If the current whistleblower gets killed then it will effectively kill off all future whistleblowers. That can not be a good thing for anybody apart from the crooks.

The Whistleblower Act needs to be strengthened to protect whistleblowers and ultimately the interests of the people.

The Whistleblower Protection Act does not protect the whistleblower's identity from disclosure. It merely protects the whistleblower from retaliatory personnel action against the employee or applicant because of disclosure of information by that employee or applicant taken or threatened by the employing federal agency.

The Act needs to be terminated, just like this third-rate moron with minimally second-hand information who started this whole BS impeachment crap needs to be.

Fortunately for us Tommy, we have you STRAIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE. :rolleyes:

If the current whistleblower gets killed
Wow. Now you got the guy getting bumped off! We don't even know he really exists! No one but Adam Schiff has (allegedly) even met him.

Whistleblowers do not have absolute power. They are promised immunity from retaliation and persecution for their acts, NOT total anonymity.

It should protect their identity. If it doesnt then people will be reluctant to come forward. Who benefits from that ?

You do not comprehend the purpose and function of The Whistleblower Act.

You're just mad because it doesn't work like you want it to work, even though you are a crusty-assed limey butting his cheeky nose in American business.

While we're on the subject of criticizing laws of other nations, why do you motherfuckers hate free speech so goddamn much? Afraid of the truth?

Now, fuck off, limey or we will whip your ass a third time! 1783 (really 1781, Go Cocks) and 1815, bitches!!!!

:banana:

The whistle blower act is fine as it is. Yes there are crazies out there that will make up any excuse to keep something secret just as Little Tommy is. There might even be a crazy out there that may think they need to do something about the whistle blower, but they would just as likely do the same against someone like Schiff or Pelosi. So to claim that they would only hurt the whistle blower is laughable at best.

But then again given that we have Tommy posting this drivel is the reason we all feel sorry for the lower IQ people.

Anonymity is the only way to provide immunity.

The Constitution and Due Process overrides the non existent "right" to hide the identity of anonymous accusers.

Debatable. But as of now it does not. Ergo ...

What's partisan about quoting the law. If you are guaranteed total anonymity then anyone can accuse you of anything and you have little chance to defend yourself. You cannot face your accuser, you don't know who, what, how, where or when. All you have is a charge. A perfect invitation to hurt people you don't like.

There are whistleblowers all the time in companies and agencies and none of them get total anonymity.

I don't want to live in the society of fear and snitches your approach would create.

A whistleblower doesnt make the decision to prosecute. They just provide the info for the authorities to investigate and then charge or not.
People act in anonymity all the time. The girl who witnesses a mob hit is unlikely to give her name when she phones the cops. Its up to them to make the case.

What we likely have here is an agent from the Democrat cabal who's only mission was to try and undermine Trump's presidency. As for safety, the commie members of the House are more at risk of harm or death than this non-whistleblower. And if the rat (not whistleblower) is actually scared, too Fn bad. If you can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen.

Forget about Trump. The American people have the absolute right to see all cards on the table face up. Our elected President is under attack, and we need to find out who the attacker was an his or her motives. We can't allow people in the White House who are working against the President instead of for the American public. We have a right to know.
