Washington — A whistleblower complaint containing allegations related to Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard includes highly-classified details about a National Security Agency intercept of a call between two foreign nationals who discussed a person close to President Trump, a senior U.S. intelligence official and an attorney for the whistleblower confirmed to CBS News.
Last week, intelligence community Inspector General Christopher Fox shared the highly classified whistleblower complaint, which was filed in May, with top congressional leaders. The move came shortly after a report in The Wall Street Journal about the complaint's existence, following months of delay that has prompted questions about whether political considerations held up action and sidestepped oversight of a complaint involving the nation's top intelligence official. Fox said the delay was due to a number of factors, including classification complexities, the 43-day government shutdown beginning in October and Senate confirmations at ODNI.
In the complaint, which contains information so sensitive it has been held in a safe, an intelligence community employee alleged that a highly classified intelligence report was restricted for political purposes, according to a letter sent by Fox to congressional leadership, and that an intelligence agency's legal office failed to report a potential crime to the Justice Department for political purposes.
