The New York Times reported yesterday that a second whistleblower was deciding whether to come forward with information that could corroborate some of the original whistleblower’s account of Trump’s call with Ukraine.
It’s now happened, according to this breaking news from ABC News:
Mark Zaid, the attorney representing the whistleblower who sounded the alarm on President Donald Trump's dealings with Ukraine and triggered an impeachment inquiry, tells ABC News that he is now representing a second whistleblower who has spoken with the inspector general.
Zaid tells ABC News' Chief Anchor George Stephanopoulos that the second person -- also described as an intelligence official -- has first-hand knowledge of some of the allegations outlined in the original complaint and has been interviewed by the head of the intelligence community's internal watchdog office, Michael Atkinson.
This is a huge development.
Trump has attacked the credibility of the first whistleblower, but with a second account that could very well corroborate the first—Trump’s “perfect conversation” may be confirmed as the impeachable offense it is. The dam is breaking, folks.
