From the Whistleblower Complaint:
II. Efforts to restrict access to records related to the call
In the days following the phone call, I learned from multiple U.S. officials that senior White House officials 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.
WE KNOW THAT TRUMP ALSO VIOLATED THIS LAW:
EO 13526, Part 1, Section 1.7, which states: “In no case shall information be classified, continue to be maintained as classified, or fail to be declassified in order to: (1) conceal violations of law, inefficiency, or administrative error; (or] (2) prevent embarrassment to a person, organization, or agency.”
The complaint details that this is not the first time POLITICAL MATERIAL was hidden under a NATIONAL SECURITY secrecy classification.
WHAT OTHER BETRAYALS have been hidden on the NATIONAL SECURITY computers?:
SECRET DEALS WITH PUTIN? WITH RUSSIAN FINANCIERS?
SECRET DEALS WITH SAUDIS? DEALS OVER THE KHASHOGGI MURDER?
SECRET DEALS WITH NETANYAHU?
IF THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME, WHAT OTHER POLITICAL CRIMES ARE HIDDEN ON THE NATIONAL SECURITY COMPUTERS?

- White House officials told me that they were “directed” by White House lawyers to remove the electronic transcript from the computer system in which such transcripts are typically stored for coordination, finalization, and distribution to Cabinet-level officials.
- Instead, the transcript was loaded into a separate electronic system that is otherwise used to store and handle classified information of an especially sensitive nature. One White House official described this act as an abuse of this electronic system because the call did not contain anything remotely sensitive from a national security perspective.
