It would be next to impossible to prove criminal culpability.

(70,504 posts)... as Newsmax & Sinclair Broadcast* are the result of Reagan's getting rid of the fairness doctrine
and for almost 40 years millions of people's minds have been made fertile ground for the sewing
of lies and conspiracies. Trump and company are caught dead to their rights on their dirty
dealings w/the Ukraine/Putin and now they are trying to shift the focus from the crime to the people
who alerted us on the crimes.
* and don't forget right wing pastors and Christian evangelicals for poisoning people's minds

(16,616 posts)"Big deal. He received second hand information from the very people who have actually come forward and testified to first-hand information." We should stress the anti-climactic quality of this "big reveal." It's a month too late for it to be interesting. Hopefully this takes pressure of the WB too.
And if there are legal actions we can take against the people who leaked the name, we must pursue those vigorously.

(5,526 posts)There is the 'volume and venom' crowd who actually wants to know so they have somewhere to direct their anger.
But then there is the rat-fucking crowd who doesn't really want to know. They would rather have a faceless boogieman to stir the shit about. It doesn't actually help them for it to become known.

(16,616 posts)For the sake of the WB, we should treat this as anti-climax in light of the first-person testimony we've received. This is not to minimize the importance of the whistleblower, but to try to take pressure off this person.
