    This is a serious leak. The most serious I am aware of to date.

    Someone has gone way out on a limb with this one as it confirms to the Russians that we have had the capability of listening in on their "secure" embassy to Kremlin communications. The leaker must have been convinced of its importance.

    It is important to know that this info was sent to WaPo reporters in the form of a letter back in mid-December, 2016. It was filed, unused for five months as it could not be corroborated... until recently.

    Kushner was apparently eager to appear before the Senate Intel Committee... I wonder if that's still the case. That said, according to sources it is still the case that the FBI is only interested in interviewing Jared as a "witness". That as of now he is still neither a "subject" or a "target".

    Additionally you may have seen a report that three more "contacts" between Jared and "Russian officials have surfaced. Two were relatively early in 2016, during the campaign seasons, but the third was post-election, during the "transition phase".

    Russian ambassador told Moscow that Kushner wanted secret communications channel with Kremlin

    By Ellen Nakashima, Adam Entous and Greg Miller May 26 at 7:01 PM


    Jared Kushner and Russia’s ambassador to Washington discussed the possibility of setting up a secret and secure communications channel between Trump’s transition team and the Kremlin, using Russian diplomatic facilities in an apparent move to shield their pre-inauguration discussions from monitoring, according to U.S. officials briefed on intelligence reports.


    Ambassador Sergey Kislyak reported to his superiors in Moscow that Kushner, son-in-law and confidant to then-President-elect Trump, made the proposal during a meeting on Dec. 1 or 2 at Trump Tower, according to intercepts of Russian communications that were reviewed by U.S. officials. Kislyak said Kushner suggested using Russian diplomatic facilities in the United States for the communications.


    The meeting also was attended by Michael Flynn, Trump’s first national security adviser.


    The White House disclosed the meeting only in March, playing down its significance. But people familiar with the matter say the FBI now considers the encounter, as well as another meeting Kushner had with a Russian banker, to be of investigative interest.


    Kislyak reportedly was taken aback by the suggestion of allowing an American to use Russian communications gear at its embassy or consulate — a proposal that would have carried security risks for Moscow as well as the Trump team.

      Its moar fake news obviously. Its so fake that the wh said mr kushner doesnt recall these conversations because he's had 1000's of conversations with different folk. Just think about that one. If ur someone who didnt talk to the russian ambassador about a private sex line to the kremlin, when this story comes out u laugh and say "are u fucking serious?". And then demand someone provide clear evidence so u can refute it point by point. If no such conversation ever happened, the response from the wh would have been completely different. They're playing the reagan alzheimers card

          An NBC national security reporter said Friday night that there is a pattern of “incredible and unusual leaks in this administration” that he’s never seen before.

          Ken Dilanian made the comments when discussing The Washington Post article that cites U.S. officials referring to intercepts of the Russian ambassador saying that Trump son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner wanted to set up a secret communications channel with the Kremlin. This is one of many stories relying on damaging leaks to come out during the Trump administration.

          “One other thing that people are remarking about this story is that whoever leaked this story to The Washington Post was willing to disclose that the United States was monitoring the communications of the Russian ambassador back to Moscow. That’s really unusual and it’s a damaging leak. There’s no doubt about it,” Dilanian said.

          He added that the “ability to intercept those communications will go away now. The Russians know it exists. But whoever leaked it was so disturbed by the conduct that they were willing to allow that interception ability to go away.”

          The NBC national security reporter went on to say, “We’ve seen a pattern of incredible and unusual leaks in this administration that we haven’t seen before. When you talk about transcripts of conversations or notes of conversations in the Oval Office, about conversations President Trump had with, for example, the Russian foreign minister in the case of that incident where he’s accused of leaking classified information by talking too much about an ISIS operation, or even think of a month or so ago where his angry phone call with the Australian prime minister was leaked. I mean, these are incredible.”

          http://dailycaller.com/2017/05/26/nbc-reporter-this-white-house-leaks-like-no-other/

          *Whoever leaked this out gave away intelligence gathering sources and methods and damaged our country's ability to gather this kind of information in the future. This should be investigated but what is the point of leaking this to Wapo except only to hurt Trump?

            So when the dems cared more about the leaks thennthe contents of the leaks, you guys were flapping ur pussy lips sll over this board. And most if not everyone agrreef it was galling to not look at those emails and instead focus on the fact they were leaked. But now tgat the tables are turned its a completely different tune.

            People in this country who willfully label themselves liberal or conservative are cut from the same corrupt cloth. Ur made for each other like joos and arabs are

              The leaks are intended to hurt Trump. With a leak, they can slant it, invent it, twist it,

              exaggerate it, misdirect it... sensationalize it...

              for liberal political advantage.

              bout a thousand times worse than watergate.

              watergate stupidly set a dangerous precedent, but all this fighting to undermine Trump

              is out of control.

              The deep state is hurting this country, and they don't care, as long as they stay in the gov,

              getting their paychecks, and power.

                Congrats u made the "exact" same defense that i heard donna brazile make on tv about the wikimleaks. Almost word for word just remove the word trump. U people ate exactly as ive stated.

                You cant help yourselves. Ur partisan pea brains cannot come up with a single solitary unique concept. You all follow the same templates, just change a few nouns....but the berbs, adverbs and adjectives ate identical. It really is profound when one strps back and realizes this. Its almost an "where am i and who are these so called people" moment

                  baloney. The wikileaks of genuine EMAILS that were illegally DELETED by higgardly,

                  lerner and whoever else in corrupt obamao's regime....

                  is nothing like the undocumented lies/innuendo/baseless claims/exaggerated appraisals...

                  which were just political hit jobs by the intelligence community. Especially when we've shown that

                  it is TRUE:

                  Obamao's intel hacks illegally spied on Americans, even Congress. Maybe even our Supreme Court. That is

                  what marxist dictators do.

                  The release of real emails that the obaMao mafia tried to hide, is completely a different deal.

                  No evidence of collusion with soviets. even brennan said it. Still no evidence.

                  The deleted higgardly/lerner emails are genuine..and serious evidence.

                    everything is a lie to you that doesn't suit your narrative. The FBI, CIA...they're all lying cause they just love the CLintons so much. Comey was a liar, than he was a great American, now he's a nutjob and liar again. You don't just put impossibly large dildo's in ur ass coatse, you spin on them. In any direction. On a dime. Just sit and spin

                                  Wise move. Many dems have made no bones about wanting to impeach Trump right after he won. And no the Trump Derangement Syndrome on the left with their irrational hatred of Trump should not be normal but that is how the left rolls today.

                                    Did obama ever hire impeachment lawyers when half the country was calling for it cause he was a secret mooslim plant? He didnt, cause he wasnt. Trump js hiring impeachment lawyers prob because he sees republicans getting awful squirmy with each new revelation

                                      oh and i love how the Trump admin hiring impeachment consultants is somehow normal for any administration. They're getting ready for the inevitable.

                                      Wise move. Many dems have made no bones about wanting to impeach Trump right after he won. And no the Trump Derangement Syndrome on the left with their irrational hatred of Trump should not be normal but that is how the left rolls today.

                                          I remember the last 8 years very well with the corrupt liberal media downplaying or not even reporting many times the real scandals out of the Obama administration. Trump doesn't have that luxury with the corrupt media who are just a branch of the DNC who are out to hang him.
