It wasn't just the lying
Leaks are coming out of the White House at a seemingly record pace, many of which have painted a picture of a dangerously ignorant and ill-equipped president who is narcissistic to the extreme, unable to let go of even the smallest of slights. But some of these leaks have halted a Trump appointment and controversial policies in their tracks, and it’s a lesson showing how whistleblowers and leaks to the press are vital for democracy.

National Security Adviser Michael Flynn was forced to resign late Monday—just three weeks into the job—following the revelation that he lied to both the Trump administration and the public when he said he did not discuss outgoing President Obama’s sanctions on Russia with that country’s US ambassador just after the election. Multiple outlets have reported over the past few days that intercepts of the phone calls showed that he in fact did, despite personally telling Vice President Mike Pence the opposite.

But here’s the important part: It turns out it wasn’t the lying that got him fired; it’s that his lying leaked to the press. The Washington Post reported that the acting attorney general told the White House weeks ago that transcripts showed Flynn likely misled administration officials. It wasn’t until the public found out he lied—based on a torrent of leaks from inside the administration in the past week—that Flynn was forced out.

The Flynn episode is just the latest and most high-profile case in which the Trump administration has been forced to reverse course because of leaks to journalists. The New York Times reported on Sunday night that “Defense Secretary Jim Mattis was exploring whether the Navy could intercept and board an Iranian ship to look for contraband weapons possibly headed to Houthi fighters in Yemen,” a policy which many people would consider both incredibly dangerous and potentially illegal—and could have been considered an act of war.

  Just as I predicted, @BarackObama has not allowed an independent investigation into the national security leaks from his cabinet.
  
  In response to his tweet bitching about leaks coming out of his administration.

When the people demanded an amateur as President, that's exactly what they got.

We reap what we sow.

 

[Care4all]

ALL Presidents complain about leaks....

AND may I remind the rightwingers, for 2 years, Hillary's email investigation was kept in the news because of supposed intelligence leaks....unnamed sources!!!

It is all this never Trumper dreamt of. LOL But he may right the ship, though I suspect he'll stay with Bannon Miller and Conway

All of the wikileaks anti-Hillary information was illegally obtained.

Did you see the Canadian PM deal where Trump only called on someone from the Daily Caller and rightwing Sinclair Broadcasting.

He's made himself into a human shield of himself.

Since Congress Republicans are ignoring it and Democrats are pretty much powerless - it looks like it's up to the media to investigate and publicize Trump's corruption and malfeasance.

 

[Bruce_T_Laney]

I believe Trump love the attention and believe Trump might be the mole himself.

The King of tabloid relish in negative news, so it would never surprise me if he is leaking or someone close to him doing it with his damn blessing while he pretends to be outraged over it...

And yet another thread that only shows the level of butthurt on the left.

You guys enjoy yourselves.

I could are less......

If Trump goes, the guy in the on-deck circle is only going to make it harder.

You'll be begging for Gorsuch if Pence gets in there.

 

[peabody]

Trump has leakers on his staff that reveal his private conversations. He can't figure out who they are, and it's driving him insane.

Trump is the poster boy for hypocrisy. Hillary leaks good, Trump leaks bad.
