Seems like pretty good messaging to me. Pursuing violations of the oath of office should be more important than holding a chamber of congress. It'd have been far worse if Nancy had triangulated or looked like she was backing down from a fight (in my opinion).

It also defuses the GOP's concern trolling about the Democrats overreaching and impeachment becoming a liability in 2020, despite poll numbers saying otherwise.

At this point, who ya gonna call?:
"In the religion of Ancient Rome, a haruspex (plural haruspices; also called aruspex) was a person trained to practice a form of divination called haruspicy (haruspicina), the inspection of the entrails (exta—hence also extispicy (extispicium)) of sacrificed animals, especially the livers of sacrificed sheep and poultry. The reading of omens specifically from the liver is also known by the Greek term hepatoscopy (also hepatomancy)."

I'm actually kind of surprised as little has come out about the whistlebower so far, either due to the one person willing to fall on their sword for Trump or just bad record keeping or something.

If the whistleblower is under Federal protection to protect his/her identity isn't that somewhat pointless when the person going after him/her is literally the leader of the Federal government? Like aren't there enough yes man in the administration that will just give up the persons ID if the president asks for it?

Certainly explains why 99% of them are dirt poor farmers dying of starvation and malnutrition while being fenced in to keep them from leaving.
Also explains why those that do seek to achieve get put in labor camps.

Kind of weird how "communism in NK" runs so parallel with pure capitalism when it comes to that.
"Oh, you're poor and dying? You didn't pull bootstraps hard enough. You're in prison? Well, you tugged too hard and scared the rich people they might make 0.00000001% less this year"

Theoretical: pile it onto the impeachment charges if trump or someone under his watch reveals this whistleblower's identity.

The scenario I absolutely want to see is Trump being ordered to testify before Congress.

He will refuse.

At that point, will Congress physically compel him into the room? Hold him in contempt? The possibilities are all so magical.

"How could you possibly want to impeach someone who has done all this great stuff?"
sure sounds an awful lot like
"You must be the crazy one, everyone knows I'm a great guy"

"I deserve to meet my accuser, especially when this accuser" [after spending days telegraphing threats upon them]
really reminds me of
"I'm sure this is all a big misunderstanding, I just need to talk to her and clear things up"

"They are trying to stop ME, because I am fighting for YOU!"
doesn't even need an analogy

And "What they REALLY ought to be looking into is __________" is just textbook water-muddying that you can expect any time a manipulative gaslighting waste monster really gets cornered.

Anybody who has dealt with these people can spot it the instant they start talking. I sat on grand jury duty a bunch of years ago, and an alarming number of the cases were sexual assault / child endangerment from a trusted member of the family, or financial supporter of the family. Trump's brand of defense is EXACTLY what you hear from these people, and it seriously gives me flashbacks to those cases.
