leaks are absolutely real. The news is fake

Hey Mr. Rational.. you know it's impossible to prove a negative don't you?

These establishment shills can make any claims they want and no one will be able to disprove them, the accusation is more than enough as the establishment media will run with the story no matter how flimsy it is.

If you can't see the bias by now you're beyond all help. It's beyond obvious at this point.

I just gave an example of how Trump could do exactly that.

Impossible what?

Does anybody know the content of the Flynn leak yet? If not then there can be no news true or false, to spend hours and hours on like a couple of networks have done.

They're not misleading anyone. Just because trump says it's fake doesn't make it true. Especially since so little of what he says is true.

The country is getting tired of that already.

Now there's a valid point.

Why should we believe anything Trump says?

Sure, he made campaign promises --- with no solutions. His "follow throughs" are a mess because he has no clue what he's doing.

That's not worth anything.

Flynn admitted he talked to a Russian ambassador multiple times in his resignation letter.

As far as working together for some common goal, the NYT piece states there is no evidence of that.

There is no transcript that I've been able to find. In fact, I've seen articles on several sites calling for a released transcript so this can be put to rest one way or the other.

That the full transcript wasn't leaked is as likely to cover up the fact that there is no "there" there as it is to preserve any classified material since the leaked information was classified in the first place. If the leaker really had any scruples over that, they wouldn't have leaked to the press, instead they would have followed whistleblower law and procedure. I mean, you're already leaking classified material, you might as well leak it all if it's as bad as all that.

It's not illegal for him to talk to the Russian ambassador. That person would have been his opposite in his new post, so it was his job to begin establishing the groundwork for a working relationship with him and others in the world like him.

I did not say it was illegal. All I said is that Flynn admitted to talking to the Russian ambassador. So that part of the article is true.

At the time, Trump wasn't even sworn in as the new POTUS yet, he was merely president "elect."

Now if Trump isn't even POTUS yet, how the hell are his future appointees "just doing their jobs," when it's not their job yet?

At the time, he hadn't been appointed to squat and he was nothing more than a private citizen.

Doing his job, my ass!

The leaks were real. The news was real. The only thing fake in this scenario is the joke masquerading as POTUS.

Only problem is your suggestion wouldn't actually prove anything at all.

Or you don't actually know the meaning of proof.

Sean Spicer targets own staff in leak crackdown

Another sign of the Trump administration devouring itself. What an atmosphere to work in...

Upon entering Spicer’s second floor office, staffers were told to dump their phones on a table for a “phone check," to prove they had nothing to hide.
Spicer, who consulted with White House counsel Don McGahn before calling the meeting, was accompanied by White House lawyers in the room, according to multiple sources.

The leak of this phone check crackdown was leaked to the press. These leaks are from staff Trump and Co. hired.

Spicer also warned the group of more problems if news of the phone checks and the meeting about leaks was leaked to the media. It's not the first time that warnings about leaks have promptly leaked. The State Department's legal office issued a four-page memo warning of the dangers of leaks -- that memo was immediately posted by the Washington Post.
