It’s no secret that President Trump has accused the “fake news media” of shielding the whistleblower’s identity. In a recent tweet, the president said the whistleblower “got it so wrong” and added that he must come forward. The president has claimed that the media outlets know the identity of the whistleblower, but refuse to reveal him because there would be “hell to pay” from the Democrat Party.

It seems that not only may the president be right – that the lame-stream media knows the whistleblower’s identity – but we may now know why they are protecting him and that info.

Reports have surfaced that say that the whistleblower is likely Eric Ciaramella. Ciaramella, an ex-CIA operative, has ties to major Democrats and anti-Trump members of the intelligence community that are as thick as an elephant’s trunk!

It’s no wonder “Shifty Schiff,” the Dems and the media are so adamant about his identity remaining hidden. This wasn’t just standard whistleblower protection. This was narrative protection first and foremost.

If the whistleblower is indeed Ciaramella, the president was absolutely right in his speculation that “I don’t know if that’s true or not, but what they said is he’s an Obama person,” stated President Trump, “and that he was like a big, big anti-Trump person — they said terrible things.”

Here are some things you need to know about Eric Ciaramella. He was fired from National Security Council for leaking sensitive information from the White House. If that kind of information got out about the “whistleblower” that alone would have left people kind of skeptical. But, what if they also learned he worked for Joe Biden and traveled with him to Ukraine? Ciaramella did both of those things. Could this have been his real motive for filing the complaint?

Ciaramella is known to have direct ties to current Schiff staffers who worked with him for a time at the NSC and to associate with people like Susan Rice, James Clapper, and John Brennan. But it gets worse. It turns out his connections to taking down President Trump date back to before the 2016 election. He worked with Alexandra Chalupa, who Glenn Beck exposed as directly contributing to the Russian-collusion hoax, among other things.

The bottom line is, if the whistleblower is indeed, Eric Ciaramella, he’s a manufactured stool pigeon who may be the only person in Washington DC with less credibility than Adam Schiff.
