The White House official behind the leak detailing a memo written for President Trump urging him not to congratulate Russia’s President Vladimir Putin on winning re-election could face criminal charges, Sara Carter reports.
Sara Carter reports:
This was the specific warning President Trump’s national security advisors allegedly put in his notecards Tuesday before he called Russian President Vladimir Putin to congratulate him on a reelection that has been scrutinized throughout the world, according to sources who spoke to The Washington Post. […]
Trump, along with other senior White House staff, believe it was an inside leak and suspect it was coming from National Security Council staff, sources with knowledge stated. […]
White House officials will investigate the leaks and a senior White House Official told this reporter in a statement, “If this story is accurate, that means someone leaked the President’s briefing papers. Leaking such information is a fireable offense and likely illegal.”
GOP insider Arthur Schwartz fingered National Security Advisor H.R. McMaster and aides Ylli and Ylber Bajraktari as the potential leakers.
The notes were prepared for @POTUS by McMaster. I can’t for the life of me imagine who could have leaked them. It’s a head scratcher. https://t.co/Yycumf2iRy

Here’s Bajraktari hanging in the Oval with Pres. Obama. He was one of the few with access to @POTUS’s note cards for the call with Putin. Still can’t figure out for the life of me who might have leaked those note cards to WaPo. pic.twitter.com/6PFIPbuZSS

Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY) called on the leakers to be fired immediately.
“Any free agent leaker(s) on @realDonaldTrump‘s National Security Council w/their own agenda/vision for Presidency & America need to be tossed to curb in a NY minute. The “what would @brhodes want me to do” attitude by some in NSC is a disease easily curable,” Zeldin tweeted.
