Whistleblower
A big topic in recent news was about the Trump-Ukraine whistleblower. In regards to a phone call that President Donald J. Trump made to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky back in July 2019. So what exactly is a whistleblower? A whistleblower is an individual who exposes secretive information or activity that is deemed illegal, unethical, or not correct within a private or public organization.
Currently in the United States, Whistleblowing is not illegal. However, it can get people into a lot of trouble and potentially the loss of their job. There are some cases in which the government may consider whistleblowing illegal. One whistleblower case is with Edward Snowden on him exposing the National Security Agency (NSA) about illegally tracking and viewing American citizens without a federal warrant following the USA PATRIOT Act. The Act was passed in response to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City.
