US House Intelligence Committee releases whistle-blower complaint alleging President Trump abused power of his office to 'solicit interference from a foreign country' in next year's election
Complaint also alleges White House sought to"lock down" records of phone call between President Trump and Ukrainian leader Zelenskiy but White House rejects it as"a collection of third-hand accounts of events and cobbled-together press clipping."
Maguire said he was unfamiliar with any other whistle-blower complaint in American history that "touched on such complicated and sensitive issues."THE DEMOCRATS ARE TRYING TO DESTROY THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND ALL THAT IT STANDS FOR. STICK TOGETHER, PLAY THEIR GAME, AND FIGHT HARD REPUBLICANS.
"In the days following the phone call, I learned from multiple U.S. officials that senior White House officials had intervened to 'lock down' all the records of the phone call, especially the official word-for-word transcript of the call that was produced as is customary by the White House situation room," the complaint says.
"This set of actions underscored to me that White House officials understood the gravity of what had transpired in the call," the report said.
