Holly Jesus..Washington Post and N.Y. Times better have their Ducks in a Row..

White House National Security Apparatus ready to react to this development. (General McMaster)

I hope to hell they prepared for the push back they are about to face.

Let’s Just Hope!

P.S.....Seems ironic that throughout a period of 8 to 12 months ago.. Trump promised to Lock Hillary up for mishandeling so called classified info dentrimental to our Countrys security.. He’s such a fucking idiot!

[bettyellen]

1. I trust that they do. I believe Trump is so dangerous that even those nearest are alarmed....

[Mr. Ected]

2. Maybe it was McMaster that blew the whistle

Apparently he was in the Oval Office when the security breach took place.

And WaPo's sources were current and former WH officials...so....who leaked?

[mopinko]

6. this

who was in the room?

[justiceischeap]

8. Russians leaked it

Is a possibility. A Russian leaks to WaPo and then WaPo calls their sources inside IC to confirm what the Russians leaked.

Look at the chaos they would create with such a leak.

[herding cats]

12. Yep. That my first thought. NT

[herding cats]

3. Yeah, this is going to get ugly fast.

Heads will roll, but not at the agency's reporting the story, it'll be the leakers.

While I agree this had to come out, it's the sort of nationally damaging info which wouldn't normally be leaked, let alone reported on. This is very bad for the US intelligence community, NSA, our military and basically every person living in the USA.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

5. Watch Spicer get the blame.

Poor Spicey.

[herding cats]

9. I bet he's he's taking Pepcid by the handful tonight!

Tomorrow will be a very, very bad day for Spicy.

But, they can't blame him. These leaks are miles above his pay grade.

[smirkymonkey]

11. I'm actually genuinely feeling kind of sorry for the

poor bastard. He just never really seemed like he was cut out for this kind of work.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

17. Easter Bunny's still the most dignified position he's ever held at the White House. Nt

[L. Coyote]

4. Subpoena the tape recordings.

[Blaukraut]

7. Didn't McMaster already downplay the incident in an earlier statement?

Thought I heard something like that about an hour ago on MSNBC.

[herding cats]

10. I don't doubt he did.

He's out there with a firehouse running ALL over the place trying to extinguish this fire before it gets out of control.

[busterbrown]

13. McMaster did not discredit WAPOs Story!!

More to follow.

[herding cats]

16. Wow!

If that's true then this is really,really bad. Playing this down right now is basically his f'ing job.

[Hortensis]

14. Your outlook is interesting, but don't worry about them.

Verifying their information, then reporting, is why they're not first out of the gate with every stray rumor.

Both the WaPo and NYT can take care of themselves. Between them they have over 170 Pulitzers for investigative journalism.

It's the GOP that's running scared. 45's in trouble.

Of course, 45 never COULD "lock Hillary up" because it was nothing but lies, right?

[nycbos]

15. This kind of thing doesn't get into the paper...

... without the approval of the senior editors.


The people who wrote this would have to have convinced them they had it.

[Demsrule86]

18. Some push back...mcMasters all but admitted it.
