Washington (CNN) House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she told President Donald Trump that he's in her wheelhouse when he attacks the whistleblower, whose complaint initially prompted the House impeachment inquiry of the President. In part of a CBS News interview released Saturday, Pelosi said: "I will make sure he does not intimidate the whistleblower. I told the President you're in my wheelhouse when you come after the whistleblower." A lawyer for the whistleblower sent a letter to the White House warning the President to "cease and desist" attacking his client. Pelosi said Trump has "every opportunity to present his case" before Congress, and could "take the oath of office or he could do it in writing."
