Resignation, what it means fores the future of the administration. On. Now to reiterate, sean spicer said today that he did not resign over something legal. R so i was not a legal issue. Ue instead it was a trust issue. That is why he resigned. Now, there was also talk of what the white house believed is a much bigger concern. The leaks that led to all of this. Now, some reports say that nearly 10 current and past government officials leaked those transcripts of the calls between flynn and the Russian Ambassador to the United States to Media Outlets and that isat what spicer focused on as a true concern. Now, President Trump he also tweeted about this this morningg identifying the leaks as the reel issue and asking the question would these leaks continue as he has conversations about other things like north korea pointing to that as the greater concern. Gr soea what is the white house gog to do about the leaks . How will they didnt give us much information. Take a listen. Again, i think this goes back to the same way he negotiates, telling people what were goingg to do to correspond up additional leaks wouldnt be a sound strategy to making suregy that t that doesnt happen agai.
