U.S. official: Leaks of classified info by former Obama officials endanger American security operations
A new wave of leaks targeting the Trump administration has actively endangered ongoing intelligence and military operations being conducted by the United States and its allies, sparking anger and concern inside and outside the White House, according to multiple conversations with senior U.S. officials intimately familiar with the situation.
The classified leaks, which are being handed to sympathetic journalists by former Obama administration officials who left the government and by holdovers still serving in the Trump administration, have damaged a number of ongoing operations, ranging from American efforts to prevent Russian infiltration of the United States to Israeli efforts against ISIS, sources said.
A recent Washington Post story disclosed classified secrets as part of a larger story about Obama administration cyber efforts against Russia. It was published days after a New York Times story, which revealed details of a secret Israeli cyber operation that Trump is said to have leaked to Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

Congress has not and will not approve the hiring of hundreds of workers for the Trump admin. , they have delayed these actions so that the former obama people can leak and try to destroy the nation. Trump just may hire people incognito to find out where and who the leaks are coming from. obama has set up an artificial government to overthrow our present democracy , this is very obvious.
US and Allied operations in conjunction with ISIS and Al CIA 'Duh are evil enterprises which endanger the American People and all people of the planet. Let's hope someone can stop this evil global cabal (US Government and Military and CIA) before they destroy the entire world.
Whoever you are, keep leaking.
This is really getting ridiculous. President Trump needs to "drain the swamp" just like he said he was going to do and get rid of all "left overs" from the former administration.
They already know two of the main ones responsible-- they need to quit worrying about what the democrats are going to say and just start locking some people up.
Those leakers need serious prison time.
