NO! I refuse to believe that the W.H. staff, with only the BEST people, is a circular firing squad.

The ALL want to work for him!

He only hires the BEST people!

This CANNOT be TRUE.



After eight years of a presidency known as “no drama-Obama,” once again the Trump White House has taken another path. Axios reported Sunday that Trump brought communications staff together in the Oval Office after the leak was out. It was then that Trump promised Sadler she would not be fired, but that he wanted to know who the leakers were.

Sadler, Mercedes Schlapp, Raj Shah, and John Kelly were all present, though the door remained open for anyone to overhear what was being said to further leak to reporters. Sadler blamed Schlapp, her boss, for being one of the worst leakers, the source revealed. Schlapp defended herself and in subsequent conversations following the meeting.

Sadler then proceeded to sing about other staffers she named as leakers. However, pointing fingers at leakers has become the new way to attack someone a staffer does not like, knowing that it is a powerful tool that prompts Trump to react. There’s never any evidence presented with the accusation, merely the finger pointing.

“The allegation — like a previous internal meeting to deal with leaking — ultimately got leaked to us,” Axios reported, poking fun.

Can't make this shit up UPDATE...Rudy: "Some men get consumed with power and some begin to lie"



“Brennan was chief torturer in charge,” he added. “Then he disowned it, then I don’t know what he did for the CIA. He’s the most political CIA director I have ever met.”

Giuliani continued, muttering under his breath: “Clapper, well, yeah. They’re not civil servants as far as I know.”

“Really?” Bash countered. “All those decades of service in the military.”

“Hey, there are a lot of people with decades of service,” Giuliani shrugged. “Some are good, some bad and some men get consumed with power and some begin to lie. And in the case of Brennan, he’s a political guy. He was Obama’s chief defender. I’m not sure about Clapper. I haven’t watch him as well. But watching him, he’s sure not impressive.”

Why didn’t the 13 Angry Democrats investigate the campaign of Crooked Hillary Clinton, many crimes, much Collusion with Russia? Why didn’t the FBI take the Server from the DNC? Rigged Investigation!

Who’s going to give back the young and beautiful lives (and others) that have been devastated and destroyed by the phony Russia Collusion Witch Hunt? They journeyed down to Washington, D.C., with stars in their eyes and wanting to help our nation...They went back home in tatters!

That was then, this is now. Ross and Rachel still can't decide if they should see other people.

Will they? Won't they? 1994-2004

With Spies, or “Informants” as the Democrats like to call them because it sounds less sinister (but it’s not), all over my campaign, even from a very early date, why didn’t the crooked highest levels of the FBI or “Justice” contact me to tell me of the phony Russia problem?

This whole Russia Probe is Rigged. Just an excuse as to why the Dems and Crooked Hillary lost the Election and States that haven’t been lost in decades. 13 Angry Democrats, and all Dems if you include the people who worked for Obama for 8 years. #SPYGATE & CONFLICTS OF INTEREST!

When will the 13 Angry Democrats (& those who worked for President O), reveal their disqualifying Conflicts of Interest? It’s been a long time now! Will they be indelibly written into the Report along with the fact that the only Collusion is with the Dems, Justice, FBI & Russia?

Ivanka Trump now has full security clearance, too

Ivanka Trump's security clearance was upgraded to full Top Secret at the same time as Jared Kushner's upgrade on May 1, according to a person briefed on the matter. The White House declined to comment on this story.

Why it matters: Ivanka's security clearance status hasn't always been known, and there was speculation she wouldn't obtain full security clearance after CNN reported the FBI was investigating one of her international business deals back in March.

The details:

Ivanka Trump was only ever granted interim Top Secret security clearance last June.
She was upgraded to full Top Secret clearance on May 1.
Jared Kushner's security clearance was downgraded by Chief of Staff John Kelly to "interim secret" in February. He now has full Top Secret security clearance.
