| − | The whistleblower’s written complaint, based entirely on hearsay, presents Trump’s request that the Ukrainian leader work with Barr to “get to the bottom” of the collusion hoax as part of the alleged ''quid pro quo''. That suggests the whistleblower and his confreres in the intelligence apparatus are worried about Barr’s investigation and what it will uncover about their spying on the Trump campaign. The FBI’s investigation began in July 2016, based on a tip from [[Alexander Downer]], then Australia’s envoy to [[Britain]]. He alleged that Trump volunteer [[George Papadopoulos]] told him that the Russians had damaging information on Clinton. | + | The whistleblower’s written complaint, based entirely on hearsay, presents Trump’s request that the Ukrainian leader work with Barr to “get to the bottom” of the collusion hoax as part of the alleged ''quid pro quo''.

| | When originally classified, the transcript was set at the SECRET, Original Classification Authority (ORCON), No Foreign Distribution (NOFORN) level. That classification was set because the diplomatic view of the United States and the President towards other countries and leaders can “cause serious damage to national security” if disclosed in an unauthorized way. In this case, it could also damage the national security of Ukraine, too. | | When originally classified, the transcript was set at the SECRET, Original Classification Authority (ORCON), No Foreign Distribution (NOFORN) level.

| | James Comey, for example, was referred by the Inspector General to the Department of Justice for potential criminal prosecution because one of his memos contained a tiny amount of similar information: the President's views on the relative importance of two countries (one of which was Russia) and when to return their calls. Comey’s content was far milder and only 6 words, but even it was classified at the CONFIDENTIAL level, i.e would cause “damage to national security”. President Trump’s transcript was SECRET because it had far more information and far stronger views about a key US [[foreign policy]], [[Magnitsky Act|Russia sanctions]]. A SECRET classification was clearly warranted, and the call did contain sensitive national security information.
