Compare and contrast, for example, the media treatment of dopey Trump "whistleblower" Alexander Vindman who was given hagiographic front page coverage, got to guest star on Curb Your Enthusiasm, and has most recently been pitching the government of Ukraine to obtain lucrative defense contracts, with the treatment of Friend, who had his security clearance stripped, his pay suspended, and found himself struggling to feed his family — he's labeled a "conspiracy theorist" by Democrats and their corporate press lackeys for daring to challenge abuses of power.

Meanwhile, what did Vindman do? He "exposed" Trump for asking Ukraine's President Zelensky—the Democrats' latest darling—why Biden during his VP days threatened to withhold funding if a prosecutor who was allegedly looking into allegations of corruption against gas giant Burisma, on whose board Biden's son sat, wasn't fired. Biden threatened to withhold funding. Trump wanted to know why. Vindman was praised as a hero and Biden's likely misdeeds were forgotten because orange man bad.

"The FBI denied my request to seek outside employment, in an obvious attempt to deprive me of the ability to support my family. Finally, the FBI Inspection Division imposed an illegal gag order in an attempt to prevent me from communicating with my family and attorneys," Friend told congress on Thursday.

The other whistleblower smeared by Goldman told a similar story.

"Then, on my first day on the new assignment, they suspended me, rendering my family homeless and refused to release our household goods, including our clothes, for weeks," he said.

His crime? He filed a complaint saying that the FBI was exaggerating the "domestic terrorism" threat — an observation that basically all conservatives and anyone with grey matter would agree with.

"All I wanted to do was serve my country by stopping bad guys and protecting the innocent. To my chagrin, bad guys have begun running parts of the government making it difficult to continue to serve this Nation and protect the innocent. But I for one, will never stop trying. And I’ll never forget my oath" O'Boyle.

The FBI forced O'Boyle to beg for warm coats for his children after the family’s belongings were locked up for weeks.

Privileged crybaby congressman Dan Goldman's response to Patel's foundation providing aid to conservative whistleblowers and their families in their time of need was to insult these men and smear Patel.

As Charlie Kirk so eloquently put it, "Kash Patel is a patriot who ensured FBI whistleblowers, who had their lives destroyed by their own government, were able to feed their families and keep a roof over their kids' heads. They weren't "bought and paid for" witnesses, many have lost everything to speak out."
