Rep. Dan Bishop Offers Name Of Ukraine Whistleblower On Social Media
This article features commentary from Kohn, Kohn & Colapinto’s founding partner, David K. Colapinto.
David Colapinto is an attorney with The National Whistleblowers Center in Washington D.C., which provides legal assistance to whistleblowers – although it’s not representing the person at the center of the Ukraine investigation.
He said he hasn’t see another member of Congress go as far as Bishop, in putting out a name of whom they believe the whistleblower is.
“I think that (Republican Kentucky Senator) Rand Paul came close to doing it, and said he might do it, but I haven’t seen anyone else,” he said.
Colapinto said that he believes Bishop’s post was meant to discredit the whistleblower – and to silence other people from coming forward.
“This is a very dangerous process, and it’s a game that could be very, very dangerous that could end up in physical harm,” he said. “It should end immediately.”
