House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on Friday demanded the Trump Administration hand over the whistleblower complaint alleging the President and his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani sought to manipulate the Ukrainian government into assisting Trump win the 2020 presidential election.
Pelosi accused the Trump administration of violating federal law for withholding the whistleblower complaint from Congress.
President Trump knows this is just a Deep State hit from a highly partisan snitch, so he asserted executive privilege over the document.
Pelosi warned President Trump that “if he has done what has been alleged, then he is stepping into a dangerous minefield with serious repercussions for his Administration and our democracy.
Read Pelosi’s full statement:
The Russian collusion canard failed so Adam Schiff, a Deep State snitch and their stenographers in the media are attacking President Trump with a new whistleblower ‘scandal.’
This new Deep State hit began effervescing last week when House Intel Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) subpoenaed Acting DNI Joseph Maguire and accused him of illegally withholding a whistleblower complaint from Congress that could potentially be ‘covering up the president’s misconduct’ over a phone call he had with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
The Trump Administration asserted executive privilege over the whistleblower complaint and now the media is spinning a new narrative that Trump is seeking the help of a foreign power to win in 2020.
President Trump on Friday blasted liberal reporters at the White House and said he does not know the name of the whistleblower, but that he heard he’s a “partisan person.”
“It’s ridiculous…It’s just another political hack job…I don’t know the identity of the whistle-blower. I just hear it’s a partisan person,” Trump said.
Watch Trump eviscerate the liberal hack reporters:
Q: "You want to address this whistle-blower story?"
