The complaint is related to the July phone call where Trump prodded Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to investigate Joe Biden.
alleges that President Donald Trump abused the power of his office to "solicit interference from a foreign country" in next year's U.S. election. The White House then tried to "lock down" the information to cover it up, the complaint says.
The anonymous whistleblower says that despite his or her not being present for the call, multiple White House officials shared consistent details about it. Still, Trump immediately tweeted, "The Democrats are trying to destroy the Republican Party and all that it stands for. Stick together, play their game and fight hard Republicans. Our country is at stake." The tweet was in all capital letters.
In a statement Thursday, the White House said "nothing has changed with the release of this complaint, which is nothing more than a collection of third-hand accounts of events and cobbled-together press clippings_all of which shows nothing improper."
