People have caught on; it was bound to happen. Back in August 2017 Asst. Attorney General Rod Rosenstein created a special joint task-force within the FBI and DOJ to track down intelligence leakers. The investigative unit was requested by Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats.
No-one was really paying much attention to it, until recently people started realizing the false media stories were too structured. The stories were fake, but the leaks were real.
Someone was seeding congress with carefully constructed false information and then watching to see where that false information surfaced. This is exactly how you track down leakers. We previously referenced it as Black Hat Hunting.

Because the wrong information within the CNN leak was so conspicuously specific, and because the details were confirmed by two additional media outlets, a bunch of people realized such a fake news story could not possibly have happened organically. All three media outlets: CNN, CBS and ABC had to be using the same congressional leak source.
Indeed, its not just Donald Trump Jr. who suspected the culprit. Almost every intellectually honest person who has looked at this, comes to the conclusion the most likely source of the leak was Intelligence Committee Minority Chairman Adam Schiff.
If you accept the original seeds were planted to discover leakers, you then have to assume Schiff was a target of this joint task force.

Endless FBI and DOJ investigations...if these agencies were tasked with finding out if the sun rises in the east or west, it would take them at least 10 years.
Nothing ever happens to any Democrat.
So nothing definitive; just a strong suspicion with no actual consequences.
What good is that!? Throw the book at him, make an example out of him, allow him to resign from Congress in exchange for a guilty plea and suspended sentence. Then put it out there if anyone else is caught red handed like; the sentence won’t be suspended.
What do you think he is - a Republican?
If there is strong evidence that he is the leaker, I don’t see that yet,
1)I believe the Speaker of the House can demand his replacement?
2) The FBI can jerk his security clearance, making him unable to function in his present position. They don’t need proof beyond a reasonable doubt to do that, just reasonable suspicion that he may have compromised classified information.
Neither of which is likely to happen because Ryan is a wimp and the information he has shared wasn’t classified.
The 'RATS give him a testimonial dinner.
Look to Senator Patrick Leahy as an example of the horrible fate that awaits a leaker.

You mean like Donald Trump's 12 diet coke a day habit, with CNN's medical experts opining that we need to worry that the man is on his last legs and facing certain Kidney failure or some such [not figuring that some leaker in the near vicinity of Gen. Kelly was just had].
I wonder how it went down. Hey kitchen, this is Kelly here. Look, you guys have to get on the ball. Every morning I want a dozen spotlessly clean glasses, spotless I tell you, a dozen diet cokes and a bucket of ice delivered to the Oval Office before the President's arrival. What do you mean you don't work at 3:30 AM? Just do it! A Dozen cokes for Mr. Trump! Every morning! Slams down phone.
Nothing.
The new counterintelligence unit only proved that Schiff leaked certain information, but they probably won’t be able to pin what happened (leaks) before the unit was created, or what happened before Trump took office, depends on who else sings.
Which means Schiff gets a minor slap on the wrist (if it even comes to that), or a stern letter.
Really? Posting more mark bradman sundunce conservative nuthouse nonsense? I will believe his 3 degree chess idiocy when i see some actual results instead of his tinfoil hat descriptions of what is supposedly taking place behind the scenes in his own little mind. I know, sessions is quietly rounding up all the treasonous dirtbags, there are already 1800 secret indictments, trump and sessions have plotted all this activity for the last year and santa claus will be coming down the chimney soon.
Nuthouse nonsense? I think not.
Rush has referred to Sundance analysis and last week this.

Really? You've been here for a few months .... no real problem with that though.
However, when you are here longer, longer than me and many others you MAY learn that what you just said is unneeded fear and near complete foolishness.
Take a deep breath and eat some carrots.

Santa will be coming down the chimney soon, just not at Okeydoker's dark dwelling.
You can continue to be a seemingly negative individual and live in a world of eternal pessimism and gloom, or...... you could grow out a little...... not "grow up". I figure that a gloomy Okeydoker like you already feels that he has "grown up" already.
Smile............ you should have voted for Hillary.
Dont assume that a recent profile name suggests that I havent been here for a long time. Is 15 years long enough to be taken seriously in your small keyboard world?
Your other remarks are fairly non sensical perjorative opinion so no response is necessary. Criticizing a nut like conservative nuthouse is hardly fear. I really dont worry that tinfoil hat characters will take over the world. So you are safe.
Canary trap.
