Is This Top Trump Official A Leaker?

The acting Secretary of Homeland Security, Kevin McAleenan, is being investigated for leaking ICE operations to the media. The Washington Examiner reports:

Acting Secretary of Homeland Security Kevin McAleenan is at the center of a federal investigation into the leak of confidential government information in late June that forced Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to call off a nationwide operation, three senior administration officials told the Washington Examiner.

Following the publishing of sensitive leaked law enforcement information on June 21, then-acting ICE Director Mark Morgan’s team followed department protocol and reported the incident to the ICE Joint Intake Center so they could investigate. JIC is an agency office that handles internal investigations of personnel misconduct, sexual abuse, staff neglect, or violations of responsibilities that may have contributed to such incidents.

“There is an ongoing investigation. An internal investigation has been launched,” one official said in a phone call Friday.

The investigation, which is not a criminal probe, is centered around the leader of the department’s 240,000 employees, as well as at least one aide, for possible involvement in the leak. ICE did not immediately respond to a request for comment. It’s not clear if JIC has referred the matter to the DHS Office of the Inspector General.

If McAleenan is found to have leaked, it won’t take long for him to be fired and replaced. Loyalty to the government and constitutional obligations remains a vital requirement for cabinet picks.

This President has been beset from the beginning with people who put their own personal agenda before the good of the country. Those people are traitors. No matter who is President, he/she deserves respect and every government employee should show loyalty to the U.S.A. At the age of 93 I have seen many Presidents come and go, and none of Trump’s predecessors have ever been subjected to the disloyalty and unadulterated pure hate that this sitting President has had to endure, in my lifetime. It is totally shameful. An enormous number of people holding positions in the government should be fired…. some of them jailed. Trump has been very kind.–

These socialists/Democrat/Communists need to be restrained and dumped. I am shocked that the census will go forward without a citizenship question. Who is running this country? Why bother with the census, if no citizenship question. This allows the rats to illegally vote.

I would not be at all surprised if RINO Ryan is involved in this some how. With the publishing of his book it is obvious that he can’t move on and respect the peoples choice for President. He may have a hand in promoting these people through surrogates.

I believe he is the leaker, but if we are going to lock him up like he needs to be. Lets not leave out Cory Booker and the other Democrats that aid and abet illegals by escorting them across or sending their staff to help them beat the system.

EVERY person aiding and abeting illegal invasion of our nation should be kicked out of any government job and tried for treason against the USA! This includes Pelosi, AOC, Shumer, those Muslim sympathizers and every government employ who does not support our Constitution / Bill of Rights.

Pray for Trump to stand strong against the ones wanting our nation to fail!

In the past two years, democrats have used and continue to use the liberal media as the tool and the democrats existing in various departments as Obama’s employees in creating artificial situations that have led and will lead to the removal from the administration of highly capable people devoted to the president. So most of the time the accusations made by the liberal media and the democrats will have to be ignored!

If you are granted a job with our government either elected or appointed you should first go to jail for ten years (full time served) THEN you can go to your job. Doing it this way you will at least partially pay for the crime you WILL commit while serving.
