White House conducting probe into handling of Ukraine call transcript: report
By Marty Johnson - 10/16/19 08:58 AM EDT

The White House counsel has started an internal review of the events surrounding President Trump's Ukraine phone call that is at the center of House Democrats' impeachment inquiry, according to The New York Times.

White House aides told the Times that the review is centered around deputy White House counsel John A. Eisenberg and why he uploaded the transcript of Trump's July 25 phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenksy, which sparked a whistleblower complaint, to a server reserved for the country's most sensitive security documents.

It is unclear who initiated the review, but the Times reports that aides for White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney are helping the counsel's office with the matter.

The WH found a fall guy?

Eisenberg has reportedly told others that he did nothing wrong in his handling of the transcript.

Eisenberg has told colleagues that he stored the transcript in a secure server only to protect it from leaks.

You wouldn't want a perfect call to get leaked.

The Hill calls this a "partial transcript".  I'm not sure what the issue is that they are investigating.
