"There's a lot of talk about Biden's son, that Biden stopped the prosecution and a lot of people want to find out about that. So whatever you can do with the attorney general would be great," Trump said.
The whistleblower cited "White House officials who had direct knowledge of the call" as saying Trump pressured Zelensky "to initiate or continue an investigation into the activities of Former Vice President Joseph Biden and his son, Hunter Biden." The whistleblower used the full version of Biden senior's first name.
The whistleblower said White House officials had said they were "disturbed by what had transpired" in the Trump-Zelensky conversation, telling the whistleblower that they were "already in discussion" with White House lawyers about "how to treat the call because of the likelihood, in the officials' retelling, that they had witnessed the president abuse his office for personal gain."
The whistleblower "learned from multiple U.S. officials" in the days following the phone call that senior White House officials had engaged in blocking "all records of the phone call."
Senior White House officials, the whistleblower said, "had intervened to 'lock down' all records of the phone call, especially the official word-for-word transcript of the call that was produced -- as is customary -- by the White House Situation Room. This set of actions underscored to me that White House officials understood the gravity of what had transpired in the call."
