Whistleblowers Beware!
Non-tyrannical governments want their citizens to believe whistleblowers will be protected, but they know whistleblowers may endanger their perks or their hold on power. Trump is wrecking their “game”.
Can whistleblowers be protected? Or must they accept risks far less severe than members of the armed forces accept?

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Here is a list and history of Whistleblowers in American politics. [en.wikipedia.org]
Many whistleblowers have been harassed, asked to resign, sued by different levels in all many American administrations including Democratic and Republican. This is not the first.
The problem is not just Trump, the problem is in the loose regulations and weak protections.

Thanks. Wikipedia, with literally millions of contributors, is an invaluable resource. During my activist half-decade in Arizona I knew or heard of a few people in public or private employment who became suddenly jobless.

@OwlInASack cuz I’m politically bipolar.
Kudos. Conservatism has a fundamental value; it's those who allege they're conservative while espousing racist/elitist propaganda that bothers me. I consider myself a social progressive but a political conservative (minus the religious associations). We do need a minimalist government and slow, conservative decisions about changes.... but we also need more science applied to our social order, IMO...so again, thanks.
