Time to Move Heaven and Earth

It is time for Speaker Pelosi, Rep. Nadler, Rep. Schiff, and all the Democrats in the House & Senate to get together and move heaven and earth to help the whistle blower.

Don't wait for the courts to rule that the DNI must turn over the report. The White House/Barr will just find another way to stall it or just outright say 'no.'

The whistle blower must go and testify to Schiff's committee (behind closed doors) immediately. How to help him/her do that?

Ask Tom Steyer (or another patriotic-minded wealthy person - I'd do it in a heartbeat, if I had the money) to pay for the best lawyers available to represent the whistle blower and give him/her and their family a safe place to be, perhaps with security guards. He's very concerned about our country and Dolt 45, right?

Have the person arrive in disguise & unannounced. Don't tell us (anyone else) until after the person has testified under oath and is safely away again to their undisclosed location.

We have got to find a way around this corrupt administration's stranglehold.

Andrew P. Bakaj, a former C.I.A. and Pentagon official whose legal practice specializes in whistle-blower and security clearance issues, confirmed that he was representing the official who filed the complaint. Mr. Bakaj declined to identify his client and said he would not disclose details of the complaint.
