We know from his lawyer’s letter that the whistleblower isn’t a whistleblower because the complaint, under the law, isn’t recognized as a whistleblower complaint. You can’t whistle-blow on the president. The law is very clear, you can only blow the whistle on someone in the intelligence community,” said Jarrett, adding that the president is not a member of the intelligence community.
Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani has been on quite the tear of late – slamming former Vice President Joe Biden and his son Hunter’s financial dealings around the world, while House Democrats move to impeach President Trump over a phone call with the Ukrainian president about the Bidens.
