Conway Rails Against Leakers Who Think 'It's Cute And It Makes Them Popular'

Senior White House adviser Kellyanne Conway on Thursday morning continued the Trump administration’s onslaught against leakers, some of whom she claimed are “using the press to shiv each other in the ribs.”

“The fact is that we just have to cut down on people thinking it’s cute and it makes them popular,” Conway said on “Fox and Friends.”

She speculated that leakers think “it somehow enhances their resume and their portfolio for later on to curry favor with folks who are more interested in covering the style and not the substance here, more interested in covering the palace intrigue.”

White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci kicked off the anti-leaker festivities Wednesday evening with a since-deleted tweet in which he appeared to sic the FBI and Department of Justice on White House chief of staff Reince Priebus for the “leak” of his publicly available financial disclosure form.

1. Given Trump thrives on shiving people and the cult of Trump does to

I'm sure their reforms will go well. How can it fail when the chief leaker is the president.

12. IMO, that 5th day attack by our military-trump bragged about that to putin and he warned IS.

trump can't help 'bragging' to others.

2. How can it make them popular if no one knows who they are?

More likely, they are doing it because they love their country. (Or else they love the Republican Party, and don't like the way it is currently destroying itself.)

6. I Wondered That, Too

The leakers, if there are any, are probably scared to pieces.

It seems more to be that there aren't many low level West Wing staffers who are leaking. Any information that gets out is stuff that only PINO's inner circle knows about.

3. Her insecurity is showing.

She is just wishing that she was cut and popular.

Sorry, KA, you still come across as ignorant and nasty.

[brush]

4. She's probably one of the main ones.

5. What, exactly, is being leaked?

Could anything be more damaging than the crap Loser 45 tweets out on a daily basis?

[Leith]

7. This Is Exactly It

Was there - or could there be - any single leak more damaging than shitgibbon's own gibberish? Whether it's a tweet or "just making conversation with Russian visitors in the Oval Office," PINO has let more information out and has caused more damage than all supposed leaks combined.

10. Republicans never said what they think is leak. so far everything on NBC,CBS,ABC,PBS & CNN is true.

fox lied about presidents birth certificate, birth place over 10 years ago and everything after those lies- has destroyed their credibility.

[oberliner]

8. Are they all talking about Priebus?

It's hard to follow.

[Sunlei]

9. The Queen of twitter trolls, 3 million bots- preaches on Republicans propaganda TV.

11. "Cute and popular" are middle-school values.

Conway is long since past middle school age, but she must not know that...AND I doubt she ever had those attributes.

13. twitter and facebook " values" its a lota work that "kellyannepolls social media business"
