White House to limit number of officials on President Trump’s calls with foreign leaders
OAN, Dec 13, 2019

The White House has announced fewer Trump administration officials will be allowed to listen in on the president’s phone calls with foreign leaders. Friday reports said only the most senior officials will have access to his calls and transcripts moving forward.

President Trump’s July 25th phone call with the Ukrainian president became the catalyst for the Democrat-led impeachment efforts. Regardless, the president has always maintained there was nothing wrong with the call.

“Impeachment for that? When you have a wonderful meeting or a wonderful phone conversation? It was beautiful, it was a perfect conversation.” — Donald Trump, 45th President of the United States

One White House official called the restriction the “Vindman rule,” in reference to the Ukraine expert who reported the call to National Security Council lawyers. Another official added “the barn door officially closed after the horse escaped.”

This came after the Trump administration released about 150 heavily redacted pages related to the decision to withhold aid to Ukraine. Thursday’s release came as part of a Freedom of Information Act request by the nonprofit organization Public Integrity.

Last month, a federal judge ordered the administration to produce records containing conversations between the Defense Department and the Office of Management and Budget. The administration produced 146 pages of redacted emails and spreadsheets, which Public Integrity claimed reveals little of the actual conversations.
