WASHINGTON — Late to his own meeting and waving a sheet of numbers, President Trump stormed into the Oval Office one day in June, plainly enraged.
Five months before, Mr. Trump had dispatched federal officers to the nation’s airports to stop travelers from several Muslim countries from entering the United States in a dramatic demonstration of how he would deliver on his campaign promise to fortify the nation’s borders.
But so many foreigners had flooded into the country since January, he vented to his national security team, that it was making a mockery of his pledge. Friends were calling to say he looked like a fool, Mr. Trump said.
According to six officials who attended or were briefed about the meeting, Mr. Trump then began reading aloud from the document, which his domestic policy adviser, Stephen Miller, had given him just before the meeting. The document listed how many immigrants had received visas to enter the United States in 2017.

If not for anonymous sources the New York Slimes would have no sources at all.
Do you get how twisted this is? The Beaurocracy is supposed to follow the orders of the President... the President doesn’t DEFY the beaurocracy...as he is not subordinate to them.
Which was it?
Imaginary sources first hand knowledge and imaginary sources with second hand knowledge all have consistent recollection of the event as described.
#fakenews does not do this "Trump is a mad man" fantasy justice, we're into Pulitzer prize for best fiction short story territory.
‘Cuz when you’re the President of the United States, ‘friends’ call you up to tell you ‘you look like a fool.’ Right.
Smell that, Randy? You can smell it in the air. You can almost feel the s%#s storm coming.

Notice the alleged meeting occurred back in June. A half-year ago. Why is the NYTimes reporting it now? It shows they no longer have a leaker in the WH to pump out intel to the Times if they rehash a story from 6 months ago.
The president doesnt “defy” the bureaucrappy. The president, as our chief executive officer, directs the bureaucrappy.
Libtard MORONS. The leftist bureaucrats were defying the POTUS, not the other way around.
Another FBI source from someone not even in the room, I’m sure.
worldalerts.net huh? Sounds legit.
But White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders shot down those claims Saturday. She stated, as included in The New York Times piece:
“General Kelly, General McMaster, Secretary Tillerson, Secretary Nielsen and all other senior staff actually in the meeting deny these outrageous claims. It’s both sad and telling The New York Times would print the lies of their anonymous ‘sources’ anyway.”

Of course!!
Fake News.
Exactly, the bureaucracy has been defying the President.
In other words, taking steps toward EXACTLY what he promised AMERICANS to do !
No wonder the seditious bastards at the Slimes have the vapours !
<lmao>
This kind of reporting reminds me of a scene in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.
Economics Teacher: Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?
Simone: Um, he’s sick. My best friend’s sister’s boyfriend’s brother’s girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who’s going with the girl who saw Ferris pass out at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it’s pretty serious.
Economics Teacher: Thank you, Simone.
Simone: No problem whatsoever.
exactly.
