The astute reporter, Kimberley Strassel, who breaks major stories right and left has hinted at what she is working on now. She recently wrote the following in her Wall Street Journal column.

The Department of Justice lost its latest battle with Congress Thursday when it allowed House Intelligence Committee members to view classified documents about a top-secret intelligence source that was part of the FBI’s investigation of the Trump campaign. Even without official confirmation of that source’s name, the news so far holds some stunning implications. Among them is that the Justice Department and Federal Bureau of Investigation outright hid critical information from a congressional investigation. In a Thursday press conference, Speaker Paul Ryan bluntly noted that Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes’s request for details on this secret source was “wholly appropriate,” “completely within the scope” of the committee’s long-running FBI investigation, and “something that probably should have been answered a while ago.” Translation: The department knew full well it should have turned this material over to congressional investigators last year, but instead deliberately concealed it. House investigators nonetheless sniffed out a name, and Mr. Nunes in recent weeks issued a letter and a subpoena demanding more details. Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein’s response was to double down—accusing the House of “extortion” and delivering a speech in which he claimed that “declining to open the FBI’s files to review” is a constitutional “duty.” Justice asked the White House to back its stonewall. And it even began spinning that daddy of all superspook arguments—that revealing any detail about this particular asset could result in “loss of human lives.” This is desperation, and it strongly suggests that whatever is in these files is going to prove very uncomfortable to the FBI.

DiGenova said this morning on the radio that spy’s initials are S.M.
Yowza...Steve Bannon? Keep scrolling after video at source link.
“The word is this spy is ether Carter Page, or George Papadopoulos. However, one man who I follow and have since Day 1 is George Webb. I will put my money on this man’s research and findings. He is an amazingly brilliant individual, who stays hot on the trail of corrupt players around the world.
“The possibility that the FBI planted a spy, or more than one, inside the Trump White House was leaked by Fusion GPS. No one but George Webb has mentioned Steve Bannon’s name, and I will give a synopsis on what George Webb is saying in the following video.”
By this time with all of the childish games going on here and other sites I could care less who the internal spy is , was, or is going to be within the White House. This bunch of silly junior high School mentality is enough to. . .
