White House Preparing to Release Whistleblower Complaint

“The White House is preparing to release to Congress by the end of the week both the whistleblower complaint and the Inspector General report that are at the center of House Democrats’ impeachment inquiry, reversing its position after withholding the documents from lawmakers,” Politico reports.

“The move shows the level of seriousness with which the administration is now approaching the House‘s new impeachment proceedings, even as President Trump publicly tries to minimize the inquiry as a ‘witch hunt’ or ‘presidential harassment,’ or a move that will help him win his 2020 reelection campaign.”

The New York Times reports the White House “will most likely have to allow the whistle-blower who filed an explosive complaint about President Trump to meet with congressional investigators.”
