Group of abt 90 former national-security officials who served under DEM & GOP presidents, incl Trump, released public letter calling on govt & media to preserve #whistleblower’s anonymity, saying indiv used channels created under fed law to register concerns of wrongdoing.
"A responsible whistleblower makes all Americans safer by ensuring that serious wrongdoing can be investigated and addressed, thus advancing the cause of national security to which we have devoted our careers,” the joint letter ....
... whose signatories include former Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, several former intelligence-agency chiefs and former ambassadors, states. “Being a responsible whistleblower means that, by law, one is protected from certain egregious forms of retaliation.”
