This week's big leak about a major Immigration and Customs Enforcement operation was orchestrated by acting Homeland Security Secretary Kevin McAleenan in an effort to sabotage the raids before they were scheduled to take place, according to three current and two former senior administration officials.

In a move he said was to placate Democrats, President Trump announced on Saturday that the nationwide immigration enforcement operation planned to start Sunday — aimed at migrant families who illegally remain in the country despite being denied asylum — was called off to give lawmakers two weeks to work on a plan to fix legal “loopholes” he said have enticed migrants to come to the U.S.

However, all five officials who spoke with the Washington Examiner confirmed McAleenan's decision to go rogue and stymie the operation was what prompted the White House to call off the 10-city operation.

So, if this story is true, what I would prefer to see/hear from Trump is something close to the following (Tweet or WH statement):

Quote
We have learned that the operational security of the impending ICE deportation efforts has been jeopardized by internal leaks.  We have taken measures to deal with the leaker(s), and will resume the planned deportation efforts as soon as the security of the operation and our ICE officers has been restored.



This would have been preferable to the BS Tweet about taking 2 weeks for Congress to make a Deal (that will never happen).

Why can't this guy just tell us the Truth?

Does he not understand that the truth will always come out eventually?  And that his BS is always going to be shown for the BS that it is?

If true, why hasn’t the leaked been fired?

Sounds just like what the swamp does to this president every day.

This week's big leak about a major Immigration and Customs Enforcement operation was orchestrated by acting Homeland Security Secretary Kevin McAleenan in an effort to sabotage the raids before they were scheduled to take place, according to three current and two former senior administration officials.

In a move he said was to placate Democrats, President Trump announced on Saturday that the nationwide immigration enforcement operation planned to start Sunday — aimed at migrant families who illegally remain in the country despite being denied asylum — was called off to give lawmakers two weeks to work on a plan to fix legal “loopholes” he said have enticed migrants to come to the U.S.

However, all five officials who spoke with the Washington Examiner confirmed McAleenan's decision to go rogue and stymie the operation was what prompted the White House to call off the 10-city operation.

The planned raids in cities such as Los Angeles, Miami, and Houston, were first reported by the Washington Post on Friday.

The sources said only a small number of people in the White House, ICE, and DHS were even aware of the plan’s details, including which cities, the date and time, and who would be targeted.

Two officials said the acting secretary, who was promoted internally in April, had fought for months during closed-door discussions with White House officials, the former acting ICE Director Ronald Vitiello, and the new acting ICE Director Mark Morgan against the plan, which they noted was similar to one the Obama administration carried out in 2015.

“I know he has not approved of this operation for months,” one person familiar with those private conversations said during a phone call Saturday night. “The president wouldn’t leak that. ICE wouldn’t leak that. There’s only a few people involved in these discussions … The only one who could have shared the details of those operations were Kevin.”

“That’s our belief,” a second official said when asked if McAleenan was behind the leak. “The secretary was not supportive from day one.”

The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

Here lies in honored glory an American soldier, known but to God

THE ESTABLISHMENT IS THE PROBLEM...NOT THE SOLUTION

   Trump has attempted 3 times in as many weeks to appoint an Immigration Czar (hello Russia), they all turned it down, we knew why, it was publicly stated, but we didn't know who, apparently it was acting Homeland Security Secretary Kevin McAleenan, who, if I'm not mistaken, Trump appointed, Senate confirmed.

   You'd have to go back a long ways to find a comparison to the current CF upon this continent, immigration wise, and they screwed it up too. @DCPatriot

Who knows if true but it certainly is plausible.
Paraphrasing the wisdom of Machiavelli;

So why do appointees, in effect, urinate on Trump?????
BECAUSE THEY HAVE CONTEMPT YET NO FEAR OF HIM,
AS THEY GRASP HE CANNOT JUDGE CHARACTER!!!!!!!

Donald hasn't tweeted it and other Conservative news sources are not reporting.  Must be fake news.


If this story about leaking is even true (which I doubt) why would they publish a name when they have not even proven it?   This presidency surely is Trumps private reality show. The who done it mystery reality show of the week.  A new scandal.  And if it was McAleenan leaking this information, which doesn't make sense he would have to fire him.   And it would be another bad judge of character for the President.  All of the presidents failures.  Always something to get people going.
