      Rep. Eric Swalwell Retweeted Rebecca Shabad

      False. The whistleblower would not have aurhorization to share classified information. If he did, he’d lose his clearance and be charged with a crime. Not shocked that @GOPLeader is spreading misinformation. It’s what he does.https://twitter.com/RebeccaShabad/status/1175077722801999877 …

      This morning could have sworn @RepMikeRogers said on CNN that the whistleblower could still come to the committees

      Replying to @RebeccaShabad @GOPLeader @RepMikeRogers

      Rogers may have said that. But the statute is very clear that the whistleblower cannot do that. He must work with DNI/IG to coordinate testimony to Congress. He is not cleared by DNI to do that. DNI is blocking his path.

      I wouldn't accede to that interpretation by the ODNI. And if you really read the ICWPA as giving the DNI & ICIG the ability to block whistleblowers from getting to you, you should change the law.

      Replying to @MiekeEoyang @RebeccaShabad and

      The goal is to protect the whistleblower. If the DNI interpretation is such (it is) then you are putting the whistleblower at risk of losing livelihood and being charged with a crime. Which defeats purpose of whistleblower. The law doesn’t need to be changed. Needs to be followed

      Replying to @RepSwalwell @RebeccaShabad and

      There is nothing in the statute to explicitly say that a whistleblower loses their Title V protections if they made a good faith attempt to comply with ICWPA and then comes to Congress directly.

      What whistleblower would come forward if the DNI says their testimony would be unauthorized? This reasoning shifts the blame to the whistleblower when it should squarely be on the DNI/DOJ.

          #RealityWinner tried that when she discovered Russian hackers had infiltrated the electoral process and was sentenced to 5 years as a result. No good deed goes unpunished under this administration with so many complicit enablers. Hope @RepSwalwell can look into her case as well.

          Hopefully, the intel committee lawyers are researching & drafting an application for a writ of mandamus.

          In the UK, our whistleblowing law is similar ...it does not protect a whistleblower if they break the law in order to Blow the whistle. In an ideal World no one should have to blow the whistle #justculture ... I’m a high profile UK whistleblower who won her case. Still traumatic
