Joe diGenova: White House Official Who Penned Anonymous NYT Op-Ed About Resisting Trump Has Been Identified
Townhall ^ | 02/10/2020 | Julio Rosas

Posted on 02/10/2020 9:33:02 AM PST by SeekAndFind

Joe diGenova, a former U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, claimed to 105.9 WMAL on Monday the anonymous White House official who wrote the New York Times op-ed describing how they were resisting President Trump from within had been identified and will be leaving their job soon.

"I am told that soon there will someone else leaving the White House, who wrote that article. Apparently they have identified 'anonymous' and we were told that – Victoria and I were at dinner with a senior government official last week — and we were told that by this person they have, in fact, identified 'anonymous,'" diGenova said.

DiGenova said he was unable to provide anymore details on what he was told out of fear of outing his source, but "anonymous" will be leaving the White House soon.

The anonymous White House official who first wrote the op-ed in 2018 made waves for being so brazen in their admittance of resisting Trump while working for him.

The official wrote they want Trump and some of his policies to succeed, "but we believe our first duty is to this country, and the president continues to act in a manner that is detrimental to the health of our republic," adding, "From the White House to executive branch departments and agencies, senior officials will privately admit their daily disbelief at the commander in chief’s comments and actions. Most are working to insulate their operations from his whims."

Makes me wonder if they found this person by looking at the phone records and contacts of Vin(dictive)man.

So an anonymous source has identified the anonymous source.

Well, hope it's true.

He was also told the IG report would be explosive and lead to arrests.

“There’s another report that everyone has forgotten about involving James Comey alone,” diGenova said. “That will be out in two weeks. That report is going to be a bombshell. It is going to open up the investigation on a very high note, and there are going to be criminal referrals in it.”

This is all part of the fallout of the failed impeachment by the Dems of POTUS. They never even thought, other than poll data, what would happen to them. DJ is expending political capital and cleaning house by bringing down the hammer.

That meeting at the White House was a big "Thank you" to his close supporters in DC and a signal that he was going to shift gears and clean house. EXCELLENT!

Jeez, it will take Trump his entire first term just to battle the deep state, intelligence community, and get his own people into the bureaucracy.

It is the problem of vast, all-encompassing permanent bureaucracies everywhere.

A law prof who was on Mark Levin’s FNC show talked about how the deep state goes into resistance mode whenever a Republican President comes into office, slow-walking and doing everything they can to “resist”. Knowing full well their jobs are protected unless they really go crazy, like this person did.

With 70 gone from NSC including the Vindmen, the swamp is measureably lower today.

Bureaucrats have been at that resistance thing since at least Reagan when my cousin in the Labor Dept laughed at him being elected.

“Presidents come and go, but we are always here” was his remark when I asked if he was worried about Reagan cutting the size of govt. He laughed first, then said that.
