Spicer 'Not Concerned' About Leaks After News Of Nunes Meeting On WH Grounds
Source: Talking Points Memo
By ALLEGRA KIRKLAND Published MARCH 27, 2017, 2:44 PM EDT
The covert meeting that the House Intelligence Committee chairman held with a source on the White House grounds last week has not raised suspicions of an inappropriate leak within the executive branch, White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said Monday. “We’re not concerned about that,” Spicer told reporters at his daily press briefing.
Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) confirmed Monday that he spoke with and viewed confidential information with a source the day before he went public with allegations that communications involving Donald Trump and his transition team were incidentally captured by the U.S. intelligence community.
Though Nunes said his source was an intelligence official and that he did not actually enter the White House, the location and timing of the meeting raised suspicions of coordination between Nunes, who was a member of the Trump transition team’s executive committee, and the White House.
Spicer repeatedly said that the White House had no prior knowledge of Nunes’ visit, and that the only information it had about the meeting came from “public reports.” He declined to rule out that the information Nunes obtained originated with the White House, however.

‘Anything is possible’: Spicer admits White House may have given info Nunes to defend Trump’s wiretap claim
White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer admitted on Monday that it was “possible” that someone at the White House leaked surveillance information to House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes (R-CA) that was later used to defend President Donald Trump’s wiretap allegations.
Nunes confirmed this week that he received intelligence about the alleged surveillance while visiting White House grounds. He has insisted, however, that White House staffers were not the source of the information.
At Monday’s White House press briefing, Spicer was asked if he could say affirmatively that Nunes was not given the information by White House staff. A week earlier, Spicer had claimed that the idea did not “pass the smell test.”
“I can’t say 100 percent that I know anything he briefed him on,” Spicer explained. “I can tell you through his public comments is he has said he had multiple sources that he came to a conclusion on. The degree to which any of those sources weighed on the ultimate outcome of what he came to a decision on, I don’t know.”
“So it’s possible,” one White House correspondent pressed. “Anything is possible,” Spicer admitted.

Spicer: 'I Don't Think We've Seen The End' Of GOP Push On Health Care Policy
By ESME CRIBB Published MARCH 27, 2017, 2:08 PM EDT
White House press secretary Sean Spicer on Monday said that Republicans are not done trying to push changes to health care policy, despite the failure on Friday of their first bill to repeal and replace Obamacare.
"We're at the beginning of a process. I don't think we've seen the end of health care," Spicer said at his daily briefing.
He cited the months it took President Barack Obama's administration to pass its signature health care legislation, though he also repeated the standard Republican line that Democrats "jammed" the bill through Congress.
"It ultimately took about 17 months, went through a series of fits and starts," Spicer said. "There were several failures when Obamacare went through during the process." He said that Trump's administration is "looking to look for a way forward."

wiretap claim.
Collusion there spice head is in a lot of ways Treason and espionage and running interference with a "criminal investigation" is against the law, and what is remarkable is in the below comments raises the question that Nunes and others knew and anyone else that was in that "secure" room when this happened should be in jail

"Much has been made of his Tuesday night excursion, when he suddenly disappeared from his Uber after a phone call. CNN and Jake Tapper have confirmed that Chairman Nunes went White House grounds to view classified intelligence.
The Daily Beast broke the story of Nunes' late night Tuesday romp and many wondered where Nunes could have viewed classified information since it has to be done in a secure environment.
Now that question has been answered - by raising a whole host of further questions. And Devin Nunes has maintained that the White House had no idea he was there. Wait, what? He visited the White House in such a secretive way that the White House didn't even know it? Someone inform the Secret Service because that 17-minute-intruder has nothing on Devin Nunes!
I repeat this section again for emphasis:
" And Devin Nunes has maintained that the White House had no idea he was there. Wait, what? He visited the White House in such a secretive way that the White House didn't even know it? Someone inform the Secret Service because that 17-minute-intruder has nothing on Devin Nunes!"
This "guy" nonchalantly just walks up to the white house to have coffee and donuts and golf outings in a secure room and "no one knows that he is there
Yeah right, and these are the same ass**** running around claiming to be "Patriots" to what are they really are committing Treason
