Trump: Ask Sally Yates About Classified Information Leaked to Media
Breitbart ^ | 8 May 2017 | Kristina Wong

Posted on 05/08/2017 2:15:07 PM PDT by detective

President Trump suggested to Senators on Monday morning that they ask Sally Yates, former Obama administration deputy attorney general and acting attorney general in the Trump administration’s early days, how classified information she went to the White House counsel with got leaked to the media soon after.

Ask Sally Yates, under oath, if she knows how classified information got into the newspapers soon after she explained it to W.H. Council.

Hopefully, someone in the Senate will pursue this.

Get Yates to testify under oath.

She testified she knew nothing
Judicial group has already subpoena his emails for this time period

I don’t like Yates.

Plus, she’s got a neck like Jar Jar Binks.

But when I watched her today, she sure seemed composed.

She sort of admitted giving information to the media but was not specific about anything in particular.

Lying to Congress (or the FBI) is a crime regardless of whether a person is under oath.

Lindsay Graham asked. The witness fingered no one and denied it was them, but agreeing that someone did unmask Americans in an incidental collection and fed it to the WAPO.

Klapper is very polite and lumbering, but seems to me his answers all day long indicate he is asking the committee today to look at Comey for news leaks. Don’t ask me the specifics of just what he said, because it was manifested by a hand wave and he admittedly alluded to speculation.

Yates is articulate as opposed to Klapper and comports herself very well, but like all liberals, her feelings clearly counted for her obscene decision to cooperate with the Sessions Justice Department, believing in her own universe that enforcing immigration law was unconstitutional, thus she was summarily fired.

Mark my word she knows who leaked it and was a collaborator in the action.

How is it that the Attorney General knows who Flynn is talking to? Did the FBI tell her and if so why?

She says that she warned the WH but never says that she talked to the senate who had confirmation hearings. So, whats with that. Why wouldn’t they bring it to the confirmation hearings. You don’t have to be called to give input. So did the senators ignore it. Or did they try to disrupt Trump without letting on that they were subversives.

She said earlier she was told by a member of NSA who accompanied her to WH. That has to be RICE.

Not positive she knew, and she is a lot more subtle, but in my own opinion she also would like the Committee to look at Comey.

I think it will turn out to be Brennan, Rice and who was that freaky little nerd girl who blabbed on Morning Joe weeks ago that she herself informed Democrats in Congress to pursue the Russian thing against Trump. She was the big Hillary supporting loon who thought she was going to be in the Hillary White House.

These Leftist loons are still thick in the departments and until they get sniffed out and fired, I’m afraid this is destined to be an ongoing and endless character assassination of Trump, his family and his administration.

“...comports herself very well...”

She was smugness personified. Her comportment was so snooty, and her body language so haughty and obnoxious that I could not stand watching her!

I get your point though (not trying to be critical of your take on this); she came off as far more articulate than Klapper.

I get that. I was LITERALLY cleaning closets with a TV near by, but did not watch her so much as listened to her, loud and clear, and heard no stuttering.

It is funny how only hearing someone, rather than both hearing & viewing them can affect impressions. Thx, stonehouse.

I do think she was the leaker...and all her little moves were made to conform with what she was going to create for the meeting on the 26th, 27th etc. until she got her a** booted on the 30th.

Clapper was quite relaxed and not afraid of anything.

She was rigid and rehearsed...typical prosecutor. All in all, she did a sh** job.

She could not and would not explain HOW he was so compromised that he would be subject to blackmail. Her imagination got the best of her.

I think she's lying about something but I can't put my finger on it. And she should have been forced to tell who was with her for these meets.
