The FBI asked last month to interview the anonymous whistleblower who filed the complaint about the President’s July 25 call with Ukraine’s president that ultimately led to the current House impeachment inquiry.

The FBI’s Washington Field Office reached out in mid-October to lawyers for the whistleblower and asked to interview the whistleblower regarding the complaint filed with the IC IG, according to a source familiar with the request.

The source says the lawyers and FBI have been in contact regarding the request.

The FBI’s request was made weeks after the Justice Department said it had decided not to pursue a campaign finance investigation based on the call.

Yahoo first reported that the FBI is seeking the whistleblower interview.
