RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
HALPERIN: "Someone in the White House, someone in the FBI, whoever it is. There's no doubt there is more we don't even know about. How did the meeting get set up?"
SCARBOROUGH: "Mika, there's all this talk about leaks from the CIA, leaks from the FBI. When it comes to Jared Kushner, the leaks are all coming from inside the White House. Six people leaked a couple days ago about him. Steve Bannon was running around from -- according to my sources, bragging to journalists a month and a half ago that he didn't have to worry about Kushner and he was going to sideline Kushner because of Russia, that he had information on the Russian investigation and that he was going to sideline Jared Kushner. Two days after I heard this, two days, front page "New York Times" story about the links between Kushner and Russia. A coincidence? Absolutely not. Steve Bannon has been leaking, I believe, based on everything that I've heard, has been leaking these stories. People very close to Steve Bannon were telling me before the stories were leaked that he was going to be leaking these stories."
HALPERIN: "He has a job and wants to keep it and will do what's necessary to do that."
