State Department Memo on Media Leaks Gets Leaked to Washington Post
A report generated by the State Department on the threat posed by leaks to the media was leaked toWashington Post columnist Josh Rogin, according to his commentary published on Friday.
Rogin, who does not provide the memo or a link to the February 20 memo in his commentary, did give a link to the State Department official who allegedly wrote the memo, Richard Visek, acting legal adviser at the agency.
“The State Department legal office prepared a four-page memo for Secretary of State Rex Tillerson warning of the dangers of leaking by State Department employees,” Rogin wrote. “It promptly leaked, to me.”
“That’s only the latest sign that the relationship between the Trump administration political appointees and the State Department professional workforce is still very much a work in progress,” Rogin wrote.
The memo was entitled “SBU: Protecting Privileged Information,” according to Rogin.

You can't make this sh*t up. Makes House of Cards seem real! No wonder Americans despise D.C. And everything that makes it so disfunctional. It's one big corrupt swamp. And they media leeches feed off of that crap.
