The Whistleblower's Complaint on Trump and Ukraine Has Been Released. These Sections Will Receive the Most Scrutiny

https://time.com/5687055/whistleblower-complaint-allegations/
The whistleblower complaint detailing concerns over President Donald Trump’s July phone call with the Ukrainian president alleges that the President “is using the power of his office to solicit interference from a foreign country in the 2020 U.S. election.”
In addition to the July phone call, the complaint, which was released by the House Intelligence Committee on Thursday morning, details an alleged effort by White House officials to keep records of the call secret and efforts to follow up with Ukrainian officials about the call. The whistleblower described the President’s personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, as a “central figure” in the effort to pressure Ukraine to interfere in the 2020 election, and that Attorney General William Barr “appears to be involved.” (Giuliani has defended his work and denied wrongdoing while the Department of Justice has denied that Barr has communicated with Ukraine).

  1. Ukraine didn't even know there was a hold on them getting the $400MM.
    So where's the threat?

    Obama was criticized for not taking any steps to prevent Russian interference. (Of course, that was interference on behalf of Hillary, too.)
    Now that President Trump is trying to prevent further interference, he's being criticized. Damn if you do, damned if you don't.
