A top White House aide on Russia was reportedly escorted from the building after being placed on administrative leave during a security-related probe.

Andrew Peek, the head of European and Russian affairs at the National Security Council, was escorted from the White House on Friday, Bloomberg reported on Saturday.

Peek, who took the position in November, was placed on administrative leave pending the security investigation, Axios reported.

He is the third person in that position to leave in the past year.

Deep State plant, leaking info, things that make you go ummmm.

Andrew Peek.

With a name like “Peek” you would think that the security agents at NSA and FBI could at least guess he was a leaker for the Obama hegemon?

Book ‘em Dano!

In that position all of 2 months. Smells like that was yet another incident of bad appointment advice. Trump needs to get rid of more than a few advisers.

Exactly........

Is it time yet to just call the Deep State what it really is?

Seems to me like we have a totalitarian Marxist / Jihadist shadow government- unelected and unimpeachable. Bought and financed by (of course) us, the US taxpayer to not only finance political and ideological goals at home, but to export fascism worldwide as well

Rooting this out may turn out to be a pipe dream

Or could be “hired to expose”...

Is he related to LIZ PEEK???

“escorted out”...

I can just guess what *kind* of escort, from the picture /swish>

Peek came to the White House from the State Department,

There are probably quite a few that could be weeded out.

My guess a leaker ... Trump has stated setting them up and cleaning them out.

and in a completely UNRELATED story (written language NSFW)

Booted before he could file the next “whistle blower” complaint

[JBW1949]

That’s what I was getting at...Probably not a lot could be done to him at State without full blown proof...But once he is hired at the White House, he can be removed much easier...

Is Peek friends with Ciaramello?

[ripnbang]

Ever think they suspected him and needed to put him in the position to flush him out?

[Jane Long]

Great point.

[DesertRhino]

Friends with General Petraeus, General Allen, and all The Usual Suspects

[eartick]

Another deep state operative?

The cesspool is full of these backstabbers so it is possible
