Pelosi accuses Trump of cover-up in Ukraine scandal. More here:
WASHINGTON - U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Thursday accused President Donald Trump of trying to cover up an attempt he made to pressure Ukraine into investigating Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.
The House Intelligence Committee earlier on Thursday released the complaint. The Trump administration had initially argued it was not covered by a whistleblower statute that would require its automatic disclosure to Congress. Pelosi cited the complaint as reporting “repeated abuse of an electronic records system designed to store classified, sensitive, national security information, which the White House used to hide information of a political nature.”Acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire, who had withheld the complaint after consulting with the Justice Department, told the House of Representatives Intelligence Committee on Thursday he believed the whistleblower was acting in good faith.
