what the purpose of outing the whistle blower is. The information he/she gave was already corroborated by other witnesses. This just blows my mind. The facts are there it just puts someones life in danger. I find myself yelling at my tv all the time. Wish this nightmare was over.

He's threatened before to vote with the Dems when he sets his own pants on fire. Just think of how much fun it would be if he actually did it.
