Several news reports indicated Sunday that House Intelligence Committee chair Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) had not been notified in advance about the successful raid on the hideout of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of the so-called Islamic State, or ISIS.
Al-Baghdadi was killed in the raid; there were no U.S. casualties aside from a wounded K-9 dog.
CNN and MSNBC bother reported that Schiff had been left in the dark:
President Donald Trump confirmed in remarks to the press Sunday after his address to the nation that he had deliberately kept some congressional leaders out of the loop, without naming Schiff directly.
We notified some; others are being notified as I speak, Trump said.
We were going to notify them last night but we decided not to do that because Washington leaks like Ive never seen before, Trump said. There is no country in the world that leaks like we do and Washington is a leaking machine.
Trump said that tU.S. forces would have been placed in greater danger due to leaks in Washington tipping off the terrorists.

I guess Schifffffff just learned that what he said in the closed hearings is untrue. Schiff: Military intelligence is to intelligence as military music is to music.
Who all did 0bama call before our guys made a move?
Schitt would have called Bagdadi on his mobile phone to warn him.
Schitt is a slime ball, leaker and liar.
That never gets old. Thanks for the smile.
He doesn’t deserve any respect. At all.
Bottom line} Schiff is the enemy. Why would we brief him in advance so he could sabotage the mission. Too bad he didn’t die in the same tunnel as the ISIS terrorists.
Hey, Schiffty excludes Congressmen for Congress business.
PDJT just told him Exclusions good for you, its good for me. Suck it up, Buttercup.
How much you want to bet this was all done through military intelligence and even the CIA was kept in the dark. As it should be, the CIA it’s self cannot be trusted.
The RATs cant be trusted, and would likely have tried to use the deep-state intel creatures to somehow tip off ISIS.
He did make reference to crappy phone security saying, I guess this call was secure.
The members of the left would break open champagne and celebrate non-stop if they got the raid information, spread it to ruin the raid and get hundreds of Americas best killed so they could blame Trump for a failed operation that they caused.
The left would be projectile vomit happy to kill tens of millions of Americans in a nuke attack on an American city if it meant they could own the narrative that it was all Trumps fault.
Why would you notify the enemy and the Dems are clearly the enemy.
Why would President Trump have to notify Schiff? Schiff’s wiretapper should have notified him.
And that's why it was successful.
Traitors need to be kept out the loop. This was appropriate!
Very encouraging. It shows that at least in the military/security realm the leaks have finally been closed. CNN actually cut away from the announcement accusing Trump of giving away secrets, no doubt with Zucker screaming into the earpiece.
