An attorney for the whistleblower who helped spark an impeachment inquiry into Trump said that his client would be willing to answer written questions from Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee.
William CummingsAn attorney for the whistleblower who helped spark an impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump said Sunday that his client would be willing to answer written questions from Republicans on the House Intelligence Committee without going through Democratic Chairman Adam Schiff.
Zaid decried Republican efforts to identify his client that"could jeopardize their safety, as well as that of their family.""We have directly engaged GOP as to the irrelevance of the whistleblower's information and identity , but with little effect in halting the attacks," he said. "The Fake News Media is working hard so that information about the Whistleblower’s identity, which may be very bad for them and their Democrat partners, never reaches the Public," he tweeted, without revealing how or why he thought the information would be damaging.
Appearing on CBS News'"Face the Nation" on Sunday, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy said that he hadn't heard about Zaid's offer but that he felt the whistleblower must do more than answer written questions.
