Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., says there is no law that forbids the mentioning of the name of the "whistleblower" whose accusations were used to launch the impeachment and trial of President Trump. The intelligence system inspector general may be obligated to protect the leaker's anonymity, but certainly senators and the press are not bound by that proviso. Nevertheless, Chief Justice John Roberts refused to read aloud Paul's question that named a person who is thought by many to be the leaker.
Paul argues that the leaker has information that is highly relevant to Trump's defense. The CIA analyst, Eric Ciaramella, worked for Vice President Joe Biden, specializing in Ukraine. Thus, says Paul, the person (Ciaramella) is a material witness to Biden's Ukraine activities, which have drawn fire from many quarters as reeking of corruption.
As a witness with more than hearsay knowledge, Ciaramella should be made available for questioning by Justice Department investigators and by Trump's lawyers, who might wish to strengthen their case that Trump was correct to suspect corrupt practices by Biden.
Paul has denounced the Democrat-led conspiracy to keep the leaker's name from the public.
The press and the GOP have gone along with this blackout. The Ciaramella case is hardly the first time the press, the CIA, judges and politicians have agreed to black out news regarding certain topics or persons.
Here is a transcript of Biden at the Council on Foreign Relations in January 2018:

Biden neglected to tell his audience that the prosecutor had been investigating an oligarch who had been paying his son Hunter nearly $1 million a year. The younger Biden's partner in Ukraine dealings, Devon Archer, who also received $1 million a year from the oligarch's firm, Burisma, was in 2018 convicted in Manhattan Federal Court of a $60 million swindle involving Native American bonds.

Archer is a nephew of Irish-American mob boss Whitey Bulger, who was slain in 2018 in a federal prison in West Virginia after menacing a woman guard at another prison.
Christopher Heinz, an heir to the Heinz fortune, was a partner in the firm Rosemont Seneca Partners, LLC with Biden and Archer, but Heinz cut ties with his business partners when they grabbed the Burisma money, according to Trump's defense team.
Heinz is the stepson of former U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry.
No doubt investigators would be highly interested in what Ciaramello knows about what looks like a crooked deal involving Joe Biden's apparent misuse of $1 billion in aid intended for Ukraine.

Here is a transcript of Biden at the Council on Foreign Relations in January 2018:
I said, I’m telling you, you’re not getting the billion dollars. I said, you’re not getting the billion. I’m going to be leaving here in, I think it was about six hours. I looked at them and said: I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money. Well, son of a bitch. (Laughter.) He got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid at the time.YouTube video of Biden boasting
