'This Is Illegal': Donald Trump And Rand Paul Are Inciting Violence By Calling For Whistleblower's Identity, Former GOP Strategist Says

On Monday, Trump was joined by Paul as both men attacked the whistleblower, the Democrats and the impeachment investigation.

Paul told the Kentucky audience that he knew the name of the whistleblower, according to USA Today. Citing unverified reports in conservative media outlets, Paul claimed that the official "worked for Joe Biden at the same time Hunter Biden was getting money from corrupt oligarchs."

He continued: "I say tonight to the media, do your job and print his name. And I say this to my fellow colleagues in Congress, to every Republican in Washington, step up and subpoena Hunter Biden and subpoena the whistleblower!"

They are just trying to intimidate the Whistleblower (and future Whistleblowers) by saying "If you report anything you see us doing wrong, we'll put your life and your family's lives in danger.".

They are actively attempting to bring physical harm to the whistleblower, plain-and-simple, and that's illegal.
