RUSH EXCERPT:

KRAUTHAMMER: "Each side always wantstso argue the real always wantstso argue the real story is the misdeeds of the other guy. Therere missed deeds in the leaks. At that doesn’t exonerate what happened within T T trump Administration. There are two stories. One is that the internal At that doesn’t exonerate what happened within T T trump Administration. There are two stories. One is that the internal dysfunction in the trump White House, the fact that Flynn lied internally was untrustworthy. At the other story is the scananl of the leaks. We cannono have our intelligence agencies eavesdropping on Americans and releasing it to the press. We have extremely elaborate proceedings when we eavesdrop on, say, and pastors froro other countries, which we do all the time. Everyone does. When the conversation involves an American, there are extremely strict procedures to blur the identity, hide the identity and protect the information coming from the American. This is the exact opposite of that and it’s scary because it means everybody who communicates with a foreigner is subject to being exposed by his own government. You can’t have back."
