The Associated Press released a story on Friday claiming the Trump administration considered a proposal to round up illegal immigrants using as many as 100,000 National Guard troops. Now sources are saying perhaps several different versions of this memo were drafted up to smoke out the leaker.

Looks like AP ran with it first.

Check AP and see which ‘reporter’ was out of breath running to get this memo published.

They should have NEVER disclosed this method.

It is well known, but...it’s stupid to confirm they actually used it.

They’ll have to use it again and the future leaker will consider changing details, verbiage, to avoid being un-masked.

Stupid.

Interesting! I'm a big fan of Hogan's Heroes and they did a couple of episodes about flushing out spies...one of which was very much like this story.Funny that a fictional comedy series should be so true to life.

As for the leaker....a little waterboarding might be in order.Along with dismissal,denial of pension and criminal prosecution.

I said to myself when I first saw this that I thought it looked like an attempt to identify the leakers.

Tyron Lannister used the same scheme in Game of Thrones. Very simple way to smoke these bastards out.

Disclosing the method gives the leaker/leakers something to think about. The next time they see a memo, odds are good they will have significant reservations about running to their favorite reporter with it.

I want to see these Democrat Operatives go to prison. Find the leaker, and put him in prison.

The should NEVER have disclosed this information

Why not? Now the Seditionists won't be believed when they leak classified information. Knowing this technique exists will cause panic and confusion in and out of government. Media will be afraid of getting caught publicizing information designed to catch leakers.

What would be real sweet now is some trials for Sedition. This is terrible to say, but I hope McCain is involved.....10 years in prison would be a fitting end to his US Senate career (a gal can dream)
