I would think so. Seems like an obvious way to get yourself in trouble...Since that breaks whistleblower protection laws, shouldn't they be fired and/or go to prison?

Have to destroy GOP, then heal. Otherwise it's going to be like Steve Jobs healing cancer.I want desperately to heal the rift in our politics. Republicans are making it so difficult.

Then it would simply be Nunes himself who did the leak on the House floor. I've already raised this point on the threads about Congress allowing themselves unfettered access to any tax return. With Congress Critters having absolute immunity under the "Speech and Debate" clause of the Constitution there's literally zero limits on them destroying anyone's privacy on a whim or to gain momentary political advantage. Today it's the whistleblower's name, tomorrow it's reading someone's medical reports, whatever.
Devin Nunes is one of the best examples of ‘party before country’ that we have today. What a worthless piece of shit.
Devin Nunes is an indefensible POS, but let’s not pretent the media isn’t salivating at the idea of exposing who the whistleblower is, not to mention the exhaustive invasion of privacy that the whistleblower will inevitably suffer
Knowing the media's history they probably wouldn't publish. Some right wing rag however will. Any credible main stream media outlet who came out first with the name would suffer for it. The media knew the name of Mark Felt and hid it until he died.Devin Nunes is an indefensible POS, but let’s not pretent the media isn’t salivating at the idea of exposing who the whistleblower is, not to mention the exhaustive invasion of privacy that the whistleblower will inevitably suffer
Why does that matter? The media doesn’t have a duty to protect his identity - Nunes does.
The whole Barr investigating his own justice Dept is just mind-boggling, the FISA warrant process is a lengthy and complex process that has to approved by Federal judges and now this buffoon is flying around the world looking for ghosts?. I hope all these amoral asshole's realize they are cementing their name's in history as the one's that possibly ruined our democracy.Yes, just as with Barr’s investigation into federal law enforcement this is intended to send a clear message that you expose the president’s criminal activity at your own risk.
Think how far we have fallen.
You see, this is why every POTUS or even most candidates have released their tax returns for scrunity, going back to Eisenhower. Oh, except one, TRUMP, "it's under audit" was the laughable excuse then no excuse was given, what's up with that?.Then it would simply be Nunes himself who did the leak on the House floor.

Reported shouting could be heard between and Republican and Democrat at questioning of Vindman. GOP trying to out whistleblower by naming everyone around them. Process of elimination. Democrats put a stop to it.

It is criminal to release the identity of the whisteblower, but grossly irresponsible to publish it. Trump era politics would be impossible without social media.Why does that matter? The media doesn’t have a duty to protect his identity - Nunes does.
The media & social media aren't the same thing.It is criminal to release the identity of the whisteblower, but grossly irresponsible to publish it. Trump era politics would be impossible without social media.

So, please tell me....why are Republicans seemingly so intent on getting the whistleblower's name out there in the first place? It seems to me someone is salivating to get his name out there, and it isn't the media or Democrats.
Which is worse?It is criminal to release the identity of the whisteblower, but grossly irresponsible to publish it. Trump era politics would be impossible without social media.
