President Trump's administration has been plagued by leaks of sensitive information, and the problem is showing no signs of letting up as Trump passes his 500-day mark in office.
The exit this week of junior White House communications staffer Kelly Sadler nearly a month after she privately made disparaging remarks about Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) illustrates the extent of the problem.
Sadler was shown the door only after she reportedly accused her own supervisor of leaking during an Oval Office meeting in front of Trump himself.
The White House this week also faced questions over the leak of a controversial memo drafted by the president's attorneys representing him in the Russia probe and aides were forced to grapple with Trumps rambling remarks during a closed-door hurricane preparedness briefing.
The unrelenting pace of unauthorized disclosures demonstrates how leaking is a feature, and not a bug, of the Trump White House one that has caused constant distractions and sown distrust among the presidents staff.

My bet is on her husband but how would he know if she wasn’t telling him?
Prison sentences of no less than 5 years will end it.
Institute random polygraph exams - CIA does it
No she worked for Mercedes Schlapp ..and she accused Mercedes of being the leaker!
Sweep it? The FBI CIA NSA and Secret Service are filled with Obama appointees, and were part of a sedition and coup conspiracy. So if they come in and tell you “hey we swept it and everything is fine”, does that have any meaning?
Why is it impossible that Mercedes could be the leaker?
This is going to continue to occur until Sessions gets up off of his recused ass and starts putting people in jail.
The CIA? Are you referring to the same CIA that was involved in the Sedition plot?
Right. If you weren’t with the plotters according to the polygraph, then you were canned...or worse.
That’s the whole problem with leading a coup. Nobody believes you or your agency ever again. Now it’s meaningless if the CIA does polygraphs. Because the question has to be how do you know you can trust your own CIA or FBI polygraph unit. They’re part of the organization that tried to overthrow the government. They must be disbanded
Trump would like to fix it but is hog tied with Sessions blocking him from taking any action.
We are truly a nation of (corrupted) men; not of laws.
I have said that too. Everyone take notice!!!
“the problem is showing no signs of letting up”
Fake News.
The transcripts of conversations with foreign leaders are no longer published. Classified information is not leaking like it was, and now that the leak prosecutions are ripening, it will come to a screeching halt. Just trying to get ahead of that success, by planting a contrary impression.
People have to work day and night to communicate the President’s message, and give his spin on things to reporters. You can call that leaking, if that fits your agenda to criticize the Administration, and get them infighting.
And of course part of the message is portraying Trump as the “leaker” in chief, leaking to the media the positions of his own administration in twitters and press conferences. The man is violating every known “guideline” by not allowing the deep state bureaucracy to take his message and explain what he really means and why he is stupid because he is not listening to the ultrasmart people in the deep-state.

When we found a listening device SOP was to walk away like your still searching / sweeping the room . Go outside the venue or quarters with the USSS SAC and whisper what and where you found the suspect listening device.
.... The only person authorized at the time to order the removal of said “bug” was the POTUS.
