Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer Reveals Who Was ‘Directly’ Behind Mike Flynn Phone Call Leaks
Former CIA analyst and retired U.S. Army Reserve Lieutenant Colonel Tony Shaffer during a Wednesday appearance on Fox Business Network named several
Obama administration officials he suspected were behind the leaks prompting former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn’s resignation.
"Risk and Reward" host Deirdre Bolton asked Shaffer whether he thought leaks from
the Obama administration were "the problem."
"Absolutely," Shaffer answered, saying
the Obama administration was "directly involved" with the leak.
Shaffer said the blame lay "squarely at the feet of" the former CIA director John Brennan, former director of National Intelligence Jim Clapper, and former deputy national security advisor Ben Rhodes.
"Someone is basically giving away information," he said.
