Who is or who was the whistleblower?

Now Comer says it's been 3 years since they heard from the person and Guliani is now claiming the person is dead. Guliani is where this document came from. I just wonder if the FBI has identified this person as being real? Guliani could've been the one that filled out that FBI form.

Speculative fiction is fine in its place. This is the real world. Or as real as it gets, anyway. May the MAGAts expend gigajoules of what passes for brainpower pondering this mystery.

Especially a rabbit hole as stoopid as this one. Sideshows like this take our attention away from Job One: ensuring that rump never occupies the Oval Office again. I won’t shame those who enjoy pwning teh MAGAtz. It’s fun. I get that. This speculation, however, is like arguing how many angels can dance on the head of a pin. My opinion: we’ll never hear a name of anyone - alive or deceased. Do we really to come up with a name FOR them?!?

Their only witness is now dead? Oh, wait they were supposed to testify before they died! It doesn’t make any sense that he or she had all this evidence, but now that the truth comes out, the GOBers are covering their own actions with burying their own witness!

But it is all murky, by Republicon design, because they thrive on the scandal being in the news, regardless of facts or lack of facts, regardless of no chain of custody for "Hunter's laptop".

Slanted article, Giuliani is saying stuff:

https://snbc13.com/mykola-lisin-wife-burisma-energy-whistleblower-found-dead/

Mykola Lisin wife Found Dead – The whistleblower at Burisma has been revealed to be the wife of former Burisma owner Mykola Lisin, who also passed away under mysterious circumstances during the years of the Obama administration when vice president Joe Biden and his son Hunter were active in Ukraine. The Burisma whistleblower’s identity has been confirmed by multiple sources.



For review: Senator Grassley claims that a disgraced FBI guy claimed on a form that a disgraced owner of Burisma (Mikola Zlochevsky, cofounder with Lisin) claims to have tapes that claim to implicate Biden.

A claim of a claim of a claim of a claim.

They claim that Mykola Lisin's wife died but they do not give her name. Every right-wing website that is running with this does not give her name. they also say that her husband also died under mysterious circumstances. He died in 2011 in a car crash. he was going 100mph. That was way before Hunter was on the board of Burisma.

The string of “oops lost them,” followed by “oops they’re dead,” especially coming out of Rudy’s mouth, means they never existed. It’s all a play for conspiracy theory air time, a la “the Clinton death count.”
