Rand Paul throws away his libertarian views and goes full Trumpster.
Paul blocked a resolution protecting whistleblowers.
Rand Paul afraid of the people of Kentucky.

Yeah, that means that the IG can't disclose the identity, it doesn't cover anyone else doing so. Anyone else that wants to blow the whistle on the "whistleblower" is free to do so.
Why did he ask Paul to ask the press to publish with no proof?
If Trump knew the name who told him?
It looks like a RICO case.
Just look at CityData. The whistleblower’s name has been out on this forum for a while now. I’m sure there are even thread titles with his name on it.

I guess you glossed over the first 4 words of the Sixth Amendment. Meh - I’m sure the were totally superfluous anyway.

It should still apply to impeachment proceedings, which is the same as a public trial.
