Come on man, it's 5 months in and Trump's people can't find one damn leaker to make an example of? This failure to find a leaker may be the most frustrating thing for a loyal Trump supporter. Somebody in Trump's admin better start producing some rats for a perp walk.

Maybe it's condoned?

I'm not sure how you would even go about doing it. This isn't television. It's not as easy as TV makes it seem.

They know who they are, they're just playing the long game..

Because everyone is leaking.
Bannon is known to do it. Kushner. Ironically the one guy I hear that almost never leaks is of all people the guy with the best Press Contacts - Sean Spicer. Now even Pence's people are in on it since he could be taking over (this is very unlikely but in this White House "never say never" is the safest way to go).
I mean....there is no-one to catch, it's everyone.

Why has the IC not been able to find any leakers from the IC? Hmm, no clue. It's almost as if they aren't actually trying to find them.
Hint: They aren't.

If I were Trump I would narrow it down to one department or cabinet group (should be easy enough). I would then get all of those people in a room and tell them "even though I know most of you are innocent, if I see one more leak, I will fire you all and ensure none of you ever work in government again."
This will result in the innocents enacting a sort of Full Metal Jacket type of scenario, where the "bad actor" gets "pressured" by his peers to cut it out because they wont allow him to take them down with him.

You can't fire the entire National Security Council for chrissakes.

It is baffling when the IC is supposed to be so good at figuring out stuff. You can't find a group of people in the IC supportive of Trump to find out the leakers? Sounds like they can't even debug the place.
But Comey is one of the leakers

Because there are no leakers and there's nothing to leak. It's bullshite.
I'm not the biggest fan of Trump, but it's easy to see this is a smear campaign being executed by the corrupt establishment and the dishonest media. Those are two things he is spot on right about.
For the record, there is exponentially more "evidence" of Bill and Hillary being in league with a super secret pedo sex slavery ring than Trump collusion with Russia.

You could but you'd have to have a plan during the interim while they are clearing their desks. I admit it would be tough, but it's doable.

Maybe quit giving people reasons to leak would be the best place to start.
Posted on 5/20/17 at 11:21 am to Bass Tiger
because the media is reporting
fake leaks

Maybe there are no leakers. Wapo and NYT reporters just make shite up and say it's from 'sources say.' If there are no leakers you can't catch any.

The leaker is not in his cabinet, this is what the NYTimes wants you to think. The leak is the Obama holdovers in one of the agencies pretty high up.

I've wondered this too. The CIA has "six ways from Sunday" of listening in.
If this is true, it is far more concerning than mere leakers because it means the IC is engaging in an all out campaign of sedition. If true, those responsible should be brought in front of a military tribunal and then hanged.

If there are only 2 of you in the room at the time, it makes it much easier.
