Trump and acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney launch hunt for 'mole' who leaked president's private schedule filled with 'executive time'
Last week, Axios obtained President Trump's private schedule
Schedule showed Trump had large blocks of 'executive time'
Executive time is unstructured part of day when Trump watches TV, tweets, and makes phone calls
White House was so angered by the leak that it ordered staff to hunt down the source
Trump and Acting Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney have approved of the search, officials said

President Trump has ordered staff to track down the White House ‘mole’ who leaked his private schedules which consisted largely of ‘executive time’.
The search has been approved by the president and his acting Chief of Staff, Mick Mulvaney.
White House officials said they have enlisted computer specialists and IT professionals in their search, which they say is progressing, Politico reported.
A Trump aide told the news site that it is believed the culprit is a career government employee and not someone appointed by the tresident, though no evidence to this effect has surfaced as of yet.
The leak angered White House officials because the schedule leaves some with the impression that Trump does little actual work.

Another hunt? It’s probably the same person, they haven’t yet found, that wrote the NYT op-ed last September.

I think he really just needs to look over his shoulder and down the hall a bit.

Trump and his circle simply cannot judge character nor radiate fear in their enemies.
The consequences are plain for all to see, most importantly our adversaries across the world.
