WAPO seems to have direct access to anything that becomes digitized at the white house. It could even be outside hackers that are selling the info to WAPO and others. Only explanation I have for how all of the information that we are seeing getting out.

If that was the case, then why would so much of the information they put out be false?

I think we have a propaganda issue, not a hacking issue, and not a leaking issue.

Smoke test it out. Put out a BS story and keep track of who it gets to. Narrow down source and repeat.

really? because Obama caught and prosecuted several leakers.
Personally I think Trump just can't get his house in order. It's not like this is 40 person office.

This is what happens when you elect a reality TV star to the presidency.

It's not propaganda when the leaks turn out to be true.

Only explanation


Not the blatant displays of incompetence in public, let alone behind closed doors? That can't be it?

The Mooch's interview is proof enough for that. Let alone Jared Kushner admitting as much on tape at a student event.

I don't know if this is really a valuable observation. It's probably the case that a huge percentage of what goes on in the White house is digitized at some point.

Don't kid yourself, Trump is playing right along with the establishment on this charade. It's great distraction from real issues.

You're probably the biggest loon on his board. I know people like you and all of you are outcasts that can't make any friends so you go around acting like you know everything and that everybody except for you is jist a dumb sheep doing what the man wants them to do.

The establishment agenda in the Middle East, for one. The continued hijacking of this country by the Federal Reserve baws, for another.

But hey, let's obsess over muh Russians, and muh tweets, and muh MAGA, amirite?

Pretty sure they have been doing this for some time. The problem becomes how do snuff out leakers when some straight up fiction is being published at the same time?

I'd laugh if it were Russia too. There wouldn't be any need to investigate cause Russia doesn't do that.

Absolutely there is a leaking issue. How else do you get entire transcripts of confidential conversations the POTUS is having with foreign leaders?

This is yet another ugly side affect of the surveillance state. Partisans in Government with access to intelligence leaking in an attempt to depose a sitting president. Its like West Africa on steroids and liberals love it.

What Trump needs to do it yank WaPo's spot on the WH press corps. There is a line that must be drawn. Second, he needs to fire anyone and everyone appointed by the prior administration. I dont like it, but its the only way to deal with the issue definitively. Lastly, there must be reforms to the Patriot Act. shite has gotten completely out of control.
