You know...from the article you just linked to...

Yet very few people are calling for a criminal investigation or the prosecution of these leakers, nor demanding the leakers step forward and “face the music” — for very good reason: The officials leaking this information acted justifiably, despite the fact that they violated the law. That’s because the leaks revealed that a high government official, Gen.

What if the leaks are coming from the White House?

The White House was notified a month ago.
Once you open that can of worms, no telling where it leads.
Let's do it!

Preibus retained a large number of WH staffers loyal to Obama. Trump needs to clean house.

it would seem Pence has the "cover" he needs to betray Trump.
Good stuff.

Leaks are justified when there's criminal wrongdoing
