New White House Communications Director Vows To Stop Leaks





Axios: Scaramucci promises "dramatic action" to stop the leaks

New White House Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci is making the Sunday Show rounds today.

* From Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace: "[W]e have to get the leaks stopped. If we don't get them stopped. I'm a businessperson so I will take dramatic action to stop those leaks. ... If the leaks don't stop I'm going to pare down the staff because it's just not right.... Something is going on inside the White House that the president does not like. We will fix it."

* From an interview with John Dickerson of CBS News, when asked how he'll treat leakers on his watch: "They're going to get fired. I'm just going to make it very, very clear, okay? Tomorrow I'm going to have a staff meeting. And it's going to be a very binary thing. I'm not going to make any prejudgments about anybody on that staff. If they want to stay on the staff, they're going to stop leaking."

* Bonus: Scaramucci told Wallace that while he thinks some members of the press are stretching or making up stories, he wants to "engage" the mainstream media, adding that he wants to "de-escalate" tensions between the press and the White House.

WNU Editor: If he has the mandate to control the messaging and discipline of the White House .... including firing people .... the culture is going to change very quickly. If not .... we are going to find out very soon on how much authority does he really have.

The leaks are not going to stop.

We have the name of one previous leaker, Reality Winner.

Maybe I am wrong and have not read enough.

She was fairly low level, so she was expendable and not as savvy as other leakers.

I do not see the leaks stopping.

"“There’s a lot of disinformation out there,” said Scaramucci. “Somebody said to me yesterday—I won’t tell you who—that if the Russians actually hacked this situation and spilled out those emails, you would have never seen it, you would have never had any evidence of them.”

An incredulous Jake Tapper cut him off, pointing out that this anonymous source was breaking from every single intelligence agency in asserting that Russia’s involvement was in dispute. That’s all it took for Scaramucci to throw his boss under the bus.

“How ‘bout it was the president, Jake,” said Scaramucci of his anonymous source. “I talked to him yesterday, he called me from Air Force One, and he basically said to me ‘hey you know, maybe they did it, maybe they didn’t do it.’”

Kakistocracy,

The movie "Idiocracy" has become a documentary,

"Majority of Trump supporters 'don't believe Trump Jr attended Russian lawyer meeting'

Donald Trump Jr has confirmed he took the meeting"

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-jr-russian-meeting-poll-majority-supporters-dont-believe-it-happened-despite-son-admitting-it-a7847636.html


"Only 45 per cent of Trump voters, the national poll found, believe that Mr Trump Jr met with a Kremlin-connected lawyer who promised damaging information on Hillary Clinton.

Donald Trump Jr has confirmed multiple times that he took this meeting. The White House has not disputed this account."

LMFAO,

Quite the alt reality the alt-Reich inhabits.

Basically Trumpista's, Gullibillies and the Deplorables, at this point in time, consist of 55% wearing "Stupid" tshirts unironically, and 45% wearing "I'm with Stupid" tshirts, again, unironically.

I'm LMFAO, two, sometimes 3 times a day.

The fact that you need to repeatedly say LMFAO shows your lack of maturity. I neither support demos or republicans but after all these investigations through senate, nothing has come up against trump. Media and people like you are simply butt hurt that trump is president. When you can finally show some proof, let's hear it. Thus far you sound like CNN

Jay thinks he is superior to everyone here.

He is also proof that being an elder or elderly does not bring wisdom nor maturity.

LMFAO,

There are no "investigations" in the House and Senate, yet, just partizan political posturing,

Closed door testimony not under oath, isn't testimony.

Meuller's the only one running an Investigation, and he only finished putting his team together 2 weeks ago.

I guess you forgot all about the 40 years of Whitewater, Fostergate, Travelgate, Benghazi and and Emails!!! That spent $289 million dollars of US Taxpayer's money, to catch one blowjob between two consenting adults.

Since 1968, the US has had 28 years of Republican Presidencies, and 20 years of Democratic Presidencies,

During that time frame,

209 members of Republican Presidential Administrations have been Criminally Indicted and Convicted,

4 members of Democratic Presidential Administrations have been Criminally Indicted and Convicted.

If the Dem's play their cards right on this one, ( which they won't) they could milk this for 10 years and send thousands of Republican to jail, probably even some Greens,

LMFAO,

It must piss you off to no end every day to wake up to news Hair Twitler and his Minions shot themselves in the face again on Trump Russia.

LMFAO,

Your Deplorable tears are delicious, and I get to feast on them every day,

LMFAO
