    An intriguing scoop courtesy of OANN's Trey Yingst: Apparently three White House staffers have been caught as the sources of leaked classified info, and "multiple people" are going to be fired when President Trump returns to the United States on May 27 following his first foreign trip.

    @TreyYingst


    SCOOP: Three White House staffers have been identified for leaking classified info. POTUS will fire 'multiple people' when he returns to DC.

    4:18 PM - 22 May 2017

    Per Yingst, the reason for the delay in firing is that names of the leakers are being run by the Office of Government Ethics.

    Stay tuned.....snip~

    Lets hope this is True.....and hopefully Trump will set their names out to the public. Whoever they are. They are going to be in a world of hurt. Trump will need to make examples out of them. What say ye? [​IMG]

    No names? No sources?

    Why would they be fired when he gets back? Fire them now.

    Names are given to the Office of Government ethics, who will investigate further

    Interesting if true. I'm not familiar with the source to know whether to have any faith in it or not...

    Well one thing is certain, the report was completely devoid of hyperbole you find in left wing outlets.

    Yeah I was hoping the Chief WH correspondent for OANN would have given a few more details. But then again, why not play it like WAPO.

    Sounds like the same conspiratorial fantastical BS that is expected from the deluded RW Fever Swamp.

    If any of it is true, I will be shocked.

    So if they're investigating, how can he fire when he returns? Most people wait for investigations to be completed before arbitrarily firing people. At least in the corporate world of America that's what happens.

    Has Trump announced this yet? All I saw were Tweets by some guy whose name I don't recognize. Surely this is huge news.

    Well we know it won't be sean spicer. He probably will be waiting on his segway podium to do a drive by on them the second they are tossed out the gates.

    What was the classified information that was leaked? I don't remember seeing it anywhere. The only classified information I remember being reported on was the supposed leak from Trump to the Russians. Was there other classified information that was leaked, and to whom?

    What you don't think Trump can't act while they are being investigated? What are they suppose to stick around and leak some more info?

    Do you know all the WH has as Chief Correspondents. Or did you need Anderson Cooper to give you the Update?

    The OGE is a separate entity. They're the same ones who were mad at the White House for not punishing Kellyanne Conway for her ethics violation over the "Buy Ivanka Trump goods" while standing in front of the seal. They publicly rebuked the White House.

    No reputable news outlet is reporting this.

    I don't watch Anderson Cooper so I have no idea what that means.

    Can you tell me what classified information they leaked, and to whom?

    Because if it's true those same outlets just lost everything and can shut the lights off.
