White House says it's investigating leaks

By Jordan Fabian - 02/09/17 04:49 PM EST

The White House says it is investigating leaks about President Trump's calls with foreign leaders.

“We’re looking into the situation, yes, and it’s very concerning,” press secretary Sean Spicer said when asked about the leaks. “Some of them are done in a way that the release of that information is clearly a breach of a lot of protocols and laws.”

Spicer did not reveal any further information about the nature of the investigation.

The spokesman said Trump is personally troubled that the details of his talks with foreign counterparts have become public.

“Of course, he’s concerned by it. The idea that you can’t have a conversation without that information getting out is concerning,” Spicer said. “We’re trying to conduct serious business on behalf of the country.”

Exactly the whole Flynn episode revolved around Pence. The nothingburger was turned into a huge burger by Pence. And he gets a free pass from the media? He didn’t do nothing wrong but it’s all Trump fault even though trump wasn’t involved?

Twitter makes it deliberately difficult to re-post their messages elsewhere. They prefer that you read the messages within their app.

I was not a Flynn man, and still am not. But I would like to see a cite of the alleged lie that it is alleged he told Pence. Everything that has been published that Flynn said has been above board. Where is the lie? I still believe that hey jumped the gun in getting rid of Flynn because it gave the opposition much needed ammunition to use against them. They not loaded the opposition’s guns, they aimed them toward themselves and fired them. For them.

Thanks, indeed. I can just copy and paste at another (sports team) forum, but here it just blows up my whole post.

Exactly. This is nothing without Pence.

Pence was a good choice for Trump’s campaign, but a horrible choice for Trump’s presidency.
