According to the Whistleblower Protection Act of 1989 the only "agencies" that are identified as "covered" are the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Central Intelligence Agency, the Defense Intelligence Agency, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, the National Security Agency, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, and the National Reconnaissance Office; and as determined by the President, any executive agency or unit thereof the principal function of which is the conduct of foreign intelligence or counterintelligence activities, provided that the determination be made prior to a personnel action; or the Government Accountability Office.

Furthermore, the Law specifically cites employs as whislteblowers alleging gross mismanagement, a gross waste of funds, an abuse of authority, or a substantial and specific danger to public health or safety of their respective "agencies." The law also states that a Special Council has 15 days to make a determination on the charges. Considering the Ukrainian call was in July and the President isn't a member of any of the "covered" agencies. This has been a gross misapplication of the Whistleblower Protection Act.

Sec. 1214. Investigation of prohibited personnel practices; corrective action
(a)(1)(A) The Special Counsel shall receive any allegation of a prohibited personnel practice and shall investigate the allegation to the extent necessary to determine whether there are reasonable grounds to believe that a prohibited personnel practice has occurred, exists, or is to be taken.
(B) Within 15 days after the date of receiving an allegation of a prohibited personnel practice under paragraph (1), the Special Counsel shall provide written notice to the person who made the allegation that--
(i) the allegation has been received by the Special Counsel; and
(ii) shall include the name of a person at the Office of Special Counsel who shall serve as a contact with the person making the allegation.

None of the whislteblower law has been adhered to by schiff for brains, the whistleblower nor his attorney.
