JAY SEKULOW (ATTORNEY FOR PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP): The whistleblower, or what -- I don’t even like calling this individual a whistleblower. This individual that decided to spy on the president’s conversation based on hearsay information, that’s a better way of saying it. But whatever you want to do on that front, this individual had no firsthand knowledge of anything, nothing, had no idea.
