The White House staffer who insulted John McCain accused her boss of leaking to the press
« on: May 28, 2018, 12:45:53 am »
The White House staffer who made insensitive remarks about Senator John McCain earlier this month reportedly accused her boss of leaking information to the press in a face-to-face meeting with President Donald Trump, according to Axios.
The staffer, special assistant Kelly Sadler, was in an Oval Office meeting with Trump and a small group of communications officials — White House strategic communications director Mercedes Schlapp, deputy press secretary Raj Shah, and chief of staff John Kelly — when Trump reportedly asked Sadler who in the administration was leaking to the press.
According to Axios, Sadler put the blame on Schlapp, her own boss. Axios reported that Schlapp "aggressively" defended herself from Sadler's accusations in the meeting and that other White House officials later came to her defense.

I think Sadler is correct, and Schlapp probably leaked the story about the "McCain insult" too.
