Read the full declassified whistleblower complaint linked to a phone call between President Donald Trump and Ukraine
Sinéad Baker and Lauren Frias 9 minutes ago
The whistleblower complaint lodged by an intelligence official in August that has since engulfed the White House in controversy and led to an impeachment inquiry against US President Donald Trump was declassified on Thursday.
In August, a US intelligence official filed a complaint linked to Trump and a "foreign leader." Last week, the intelligence community inspector General Michael Atkinson described the whistleblower complaint as being of "urgent concern," but the complaint was never investigated by the Justice Department.
On Tuesday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi launched a formal impeachment inquiry into Trump, citing the whistleblower complaint with a majority of the House supporting the inquiry.
Reports about the complaint have centered on a phone call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. A summary of the call was released by the White House on Wednesday, revealling that Trump asked him to open an investigation against Hunter Biden and former Vice President Joe Biden who is running against him in the 2020 elections.

That seems like criminal interference with government records.

That gives Ukraine ONE WEEK to spend the US taxpayer money, wisely it is hoped.
