NEW: White House considers releasing transcript of Trump call with Ukraine's president, sources say
Some of President Donald Trump’s closest advisers are discussing whether to release the transcript of a call the president had with the president of Ukraine in July that is the subject of a whistleblower complaint, multiple sources familiar with the matter tell ABC News.
Members of the White House counsel’s office have been discussing since last week what options are available to them in order to get ahead of any potential legal battle -- one of which includes releasing the transcript either in full or with some redactions. A more extensive readout from the Ukrainian president's office, also released after the call, noted that the two also spoke about"investigations into corruption cases that have hampered interaction between Ukraine and the U.S.A."
