Whistleblower wrote memo after learning of Ukraine call, saying WH official called it 'crazy,' 'frightening'

EXCLUSIVE – Immediately after learning second-hand information from a White House official about President Trump’s July 25 phone call with the president of Ukraine, the first whistleblower wrote a dramatic personal memo, saying the White House official characterized the call as “crazy” and “frightening,” Fox News has learned.

In the two-page, single-spaced memo on July 26, the day after the Trump-Zelensky phone call, the whistleblower wrote: “The following is a record of a conversation I had this afternoon with a White House official about the telephone call yesterday morning between President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.”

The whistleblower wrote that the conversation with the unnamed White House official “only lasted a few minutes, and as a result, I only received highlights.”

So what?

The claim by the apparatchik is irrelevant. The expended air producing noise is just so much expended air

“a White House official”

I would think there would be a very limited number of people who would have had first hand knowledge of the call. Surely some trusted Trump aide could sniff out the leaker.

My sincere and deep apology. I should never post when upset, and that's what I did. To clarify, I didn't at all mean to include all people who work in government jobs, and absolutely would never feel or say anything like that about anyone who serves in the military.

I specifically meant those people who run for and hold public office for years and years and years, treat others as though they are superior to them, enrich themselves, and approach all topics and issues in life as though they are the experts and ultimate arbiters - only because they hold an elected office. These are people like Hillary, Schiff, Nadler, etc. I'm just fed up with those who treat elected office as a ‘prize’ for them, rather than a position of service to others.

Anyway, I truly do apologize.

"I know they were spoken then but the stupid dems keep throwing this stuff out. The just don’t give up."

The level of harassment this President has been bombarded with has never been seen in this country ever before. It's overkill, and in the long run, I pray that it will cost the Dems dearly in every election held across this country. The only thing there is to laugh about, is that they are so incompetent in their endeavors, it's provided comic relief these past 3+ years.

It is their plan, they are hoping for TRUMP VOTER FATIGUE.

This is one Trump voter they underestimate and I pray all the rest are the same. Fired up more and more, and nowhere near fatigued. I want to see the dems shot down in flames over this.

Whew, ain't that the truth!!! But I think a lot of it has to do with the fact he fights back. All others have just rolled over and caved. It infuriates the dems that President Trump won't do that.

If this Podunk Nowhere area where I live is any indication, it's hurting the dems big time. I've run into several people who have voted "D" all their lives but they said not any more. They're disgusted. It gives me a little hope, any way.

The only thing there is to laugh about, is that they are so incompetent in their endeavors, it's provided comic relief these past 3+ years.

I've gotten many a laugh, especially the past couple of weeks. It would be rolling-on-the-floor hilarious if there weren't boobs among the masses who believe the dems' tripe.

Opinion based upon opinion, hearsay upon hearsay. Setting the bar very low for what is evidentiary. Since #metoo this has been the case. I don’t believe this is by circumstance. Good people will not stoop this low evil people see or as a great opportunity to decide who gets to rule the future. It’s about time those Republicans who are weak kneed woke up and stood up. This carp has got to stop or they get to do whatever they like from now on.

Great post.

Rs are fainting already.

Besides a handful.

At least Mitch is showing some backbone here and there.

Even Linda

I find it hard to believe they can't see it for themselves but being a politician is no guarantee of intelligence or foresight. 👍
