A powerful cell is operating : The Leak To The Atlantic Was No Accident. Deep Throat 2.0 Exists

THE BEFUDDLED TRUMP TEAM HAVEN’T READ “ALL THE PRESIDENT’S MEN”. THEY SHOULD DO SO NOW.

The new “President’s Men” have been deeply penetrated. The Trump team has been exposed as profoundly; stupidly; arrogant. And that goes for everyone involved on their side of the table. Politics is like Showbiz, you can’t fake talent or basic competence. And you cannot hide a lack of brains.


The significance of a highly effective cell operating deep in the Pentagon and National Security Council, cannot be overestimated. It’s the time tested clandestine “art of the leak” to disrupt, humiliate and expose an opponent’s mistakes, to reduce or eliminate their power. I’ve been on both sides of this technique. I know it when I see it. The first leaker alerted the New York Times to the fact that a civilian, without security clearances or a need to know, was being “read in”on top secret plans to defend Taiwan. The second leak was to the Atlantic by “someone” who added the Editor of the Atlantic, using his private cell number on Signal, to the text thread of a meeting, reportedly, at the Palm Steakhouse steps from the White House, in a private dining room, in Washington. No Navy hamburgers and fries in the White House Mess near the secure Situation Room in the basement for these guys. Absolutely not. The Signal text thread just happened to be, as luck would have it, of the Vice President, the Secretary of Defense and other officials discussing and approving exact times and places of missile attacks on the Houthis leadership in Yemen. Neither could have happened without a clandestine operation informing and manipulating the media. The repercussions are being felt at this very moment in the Oval Office where it’s all being called a WITCH HUNT !

Three factors are at play here.

First: The exposure of the meetings were not a happy coincidences, the result of a bumbling Secretary of Defense, it was by design. The media became aware of sensitive information by execution of a deliberate plan, not by chance.
