Rand Paul: Anyone Who Leaked Trump Intel Report to the Press Should Be Jailed
Breitbart.com ^ | 1/11/17 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 01/12/2017 12:13:56 PM PST by ColdOne

Wednesday on Fox News Channel’s “Your World,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) told host Neil Cavuto it was his view that if it were a U.S. intelligence agency that leaked an unsubstantiated dossier on President-elect Donald Trump and his relationship with Russia to the press, there should be repercussions, including prosecution and possible jail time.

“What I would say is that if there is private information that someone is blackmailing a public figure and the public figure or someone takes it to the intelligence agencies, you would think it would be private. And really, this is so important that I think whoever leaked it should be prosecuted. Someone should go to jail if this was an intelligence agency head talked to the media, they should go to jail. If it was the Obama administration, they should go to jail.”

Sorry for all the caps, was on cap lock.

However Mccain is not to be trusted with Top Secret info.

Rand Paul is on a winning streak, he was right that Obamacare should be replaced on the same day.

This McCain is a sneaky guy. I can’t wait to hear his excuse for this smear.

Its not like there is any doubt, McCain admitted he gave the fake report to CNN.

Source?

I've only see information that says that McCain gave the dossier to Comey.

I suspect McCain played it smart by passing it on to the FBI, so he would not look dirty. He certainly hoped they could verify the information.

He is an untrustworthy slime ball. He’s been at the game for a long time.

Comey didn’t leak to CNN. McCain has a long history of wanting to be a media darling, a Maverick, and he said he leaked it to CNN.

We know Paul didn’t like McCain calling him a Whacko Bird, and we know he is referring to McCain should go to jail.

What about Brennen? What about Clapper?

I asked you for a source for your claim. You didn't supply one.

As I said, all sources that I've seen say that McCain gave the "dossier" to Comey. And that was months ago.

More recently, we now need to also know who leaked the information that the fake dossier was in the Trump briefing. That is the latest leak, it's an illegal leak, and it has now emboldened CNN to go public about the dossier. That most certainly came from the IC.

McCain leaked it and Jebber paid for the “information”.

Throw BOTH their @$$es in jail. That is ONE way to get McCain out of the Senate!

Senators can’t be jailed, they have Senatorial Immunity.

Clapper’s call does not negate his obligation to determine, charge, convict and jail whomever is responsible for this and for earlier leaks of intel about DJT.

This was not real intel, it was a troll by 4 Chan.

Spreading Fakenews not intel doesn’t qualify as leaking secrets.

I appreciate your enthusiasm, but feel somewhat less sanguine. The Democrats and the media are a powerful force, especially when they lure Republicans into their trap.

Better pull the plug on the Ministry of Truth that was quietly passed in the NDAA just before Christmas, Drudge and sites like this are likely to be under attack.
