Intelligence Inspector General Rebuts Trump’s Claim That ‘Second-Hand’ Information Rules Were Changed Before Whistleblower Complaint

President Donald Trump and his Republican allies have pitched numerous impeachment conspiracy theories in recent days.

After Trump confirmed that he pushed Ukraine’s president to investigate Vice President Joe Biden and his son in a July telephone call, the House began an official impeachment proceeding.

The official whistleblower report, made public on Sept. 26, reveals the actions of Trump, his personal lawyer Rudolph W. Giuliani and other officials in the United States and Ukraine. It voices the informant’s urgent concern that the president is abusing his power, mainly coercing domestic and foreign entities, into interfering with the 2020 presidential election to ensure his own success.

The president tweeted Monday that the whistleblowing rules recently changed to accommodate the complaint a “secondhand party” made against him.
