If you are not smart enough to find your own backside with a map and GPS then . . .

how in the world do you expect to find the leakers in your own staff?

Spicer on the hunt for leaks within his own staff:



White House Staffers Leak News of Sean Spicer’s ‘Phone Check’ Targeting Their Leaks

New York Magazine


Spicer is on the hunt

http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2017/02/spicers-staff-leaks-news-of-phone-check-targeting-leaks.html

Last week, White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer conducted a surprise phone check on his staff in an effort to stamp out leaks, according to a new Politico report. Spicer, upset that information had leaked out of a previous meeting he had held with roughly a dozen members of his staff, ordered another meeting and had staff surrender their phones and other electronic devices when they arrived. The search — which applied to both personal and government-issued phones — was overseen by White House lawyers, and Spicer then warned staffers against using privacy-focused messaging apps like Signal and Confide, noting that doing so violates the Federal Records Act. He also, per Politico’s sources, “warned the group of more problems if news of the phone checks and the meeting about leaks was leaked to the media,” which it promptly was.



So while Spicer is doing an all out press to find the leakers, his staff leaks details of Clousseau's hunt for those that are leaking.

You laugh, you cry, you laugh some more and then you make sure that there are no sharp instruments in the house to put your eye out, ok laugh some more.
