...In addition, the complaint says that whistle-blower, an unidentified intelligence officer, learned from multiple American officials that “senior White House officials had intervened to ‘lock down’ all 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.”

“This set of actions underscored to me that White House officials understood the gravity of what had transpired in the call,” the complaint said.

The whistle-blower’s complaint was based on accounts from multiple White House officials who were “deeply disturbed” by what they heard on the call, the complaint said.

Whistleblower claimed Trump abused office and White House officials tried to cover it up.

“In the course of my official duties, I have received information from multiple U.S. government officials that the President of the United States is using the power of his office to solicit interference from a foreign country in the 2020 U.S. election,” the whistleblower wrote in the complaint dated Aug. 12. The House Intelligence Committee released the seven-page document, which was directed to the heads of the House and Senate Intelligence committees, on Thursday morning.

1. Then they tried to lock down the whistleblower

The coverup gets 'em every time

[Corgigal]

2. Tried?

They did and still would be doing it , if it wasn't for the whistle blower. We, the American people need to see what else is in there. What has he promised to Putin?

4. This potentially could give the Democrats a wedge to gain access to

other private calls with other foreign leaders.

9. Yeah, like the calls between Trump and SA re Jamal Khashoggi. nt

[mopinko]

6. If Speaker Pelosi had not moved to Impeachment hearings

I believe this coverup would have succeeded, just like all the others have been.

7. I think the give them just enough rope

strategy may have worked.

8. When you're inept, you waste lots of time covering up, so the cover-up becomes an additional crime!

Like his hero Nixon, tRump is nothing but a CROOK.

11. It sure would be interesting to know what else he has stored in that

national security server that isn't a matter of national security but rather his political shenanigans he is trying to cover up.

12. Sometimes the cover-up is worse than the crime. Although in this case

they're equally evil.

Let me see if I wrote this correctly:

On 9 May...A few hours later, Mr. Giuliani publicly canceled his trip, claiming that Mr. Zelenskyy was “surrounded by enemies of the (U.S.) President...and of the United States."

Just who is he referring to as enemies of the United States, a delegation of democrats visiting Zelensky?
