President Donald Trump demanded that that the New York Times hand over the anonymous official who disparaged the president in a recent op-ed for national security reasons, in a Wednesday tweet.
Does the so-called “Senior Administration Official” really exist, or is it just the Failing New York Times with another phony source? If the GUTLESS anonymous person does indeed exist, the Times must, for National Security purposes, turn him/her over to government at once!

“It may be cold comfort in this chaotic era, but Americans should know that there are adults in the room. We fully recognize what is happening. And we are trying to do what’s right even when Donald Trump won’t,” the anonymous official said.
Trump previously called the official “gutless” and White House press secretary Sarah Sanders released a scathing statement saying “nearly 62 million people voted for President Donald J. Trump in 2016, earning him 306 Electoral College votes — versus 232 for his opponent. None of them voted for a gutless, anonymous source to the failing New York Times.”
The press secretary ended her statement calling for resignation, saying, “The individual behind this piece has chosen to deceive, rather than support, the duly elected President of the United States. He is not putting country first, but putting himself and his ego ahead of the will of the American people. This coward should do the right thing and resign.”
oops , I don’t think they thought about this , start arresting
Popcorn, please...
This country needs a cathartic series of hangings on pay per view.
If this idiot does exist, then he must not be that smart to pen an op/ed for the NY Times, and think it will just slide.
This is textbook sedition. A 20 year felony. Find this person and prosecute. Enough anti government damage.
Maybe the NYSlimes can get hack Woodward to vouch for their veracity on the issue, and in general...
Was it sign Jeff sessions?
I think the New York Slimes wrote the letter themselves..its total BS no one in the Trump Administration wrote this
Arrest EVERYONE at the NYT until they confess.
Apparently it’s someone who works for Mike Pence.
looks like deepthroat might be getting _ _ _ _ soon
is that why their called dirty tricks?
Ok me too:BOOM! Seditious if the person in fact exists and quite frankly I have my doubts with the source.
The times have put themselves into a corner. Either they admit it was a fake or they produce the person.
Trump can, and must, force them to come clean.
Its called NATIONAL security.
They need to start arresting the Times people involved in this plot to sabotage the government.
MSMLSD sez anonymous sources protected. (??)
It’s FAKE.
Nick Ayers..I think is his name..of course you had the morons on twitter who were speculating it was Mike Pence himself LOL such fools
Let the Lie Detector tests begin.
