'...the spinning that has been done by the president's defenders over the last 24 hours since this very damaging whistleblower complaint came out—the spinning is not surprising—but it is astonishing, and I think deeply misleading.'
The whistleblower, back in August, pointed out that the administration held up aid to Ukraine, he continued."It turns out that it was the case," Wallace said.
Wallace also came out against the recent defamation of the whistleblower by the Trump administration. Thursday afternoon, theacquired audio of the president slamming the intelligence officer as"almost a spy," alluding to violent punishment for"spies and treason." "Remember the whistleblower actions were in August. We're now at the end of September, and none of this was leaked by anybody, for all the president's talk about leaking," Wallace said."The whole point of these laws are to allow people who are concerned about what's going on in the government to be able to report it."
