President Donald Trump said during a private event on Thursday, Sept. 26, that the people who provided information to the so-called whistleblower who filed a complaint against him are not far away from spies.

The complaint was released on Thursday, a day after the full transcript of the call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was released.
