WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump revealed highly classified information about Islamic State militants to Russian officials during a meeting last week, The Washington Post reported Monday, prompting strong condemnation from both Democrats and Republicans.
Three White House officials who were in the May 10 meeting strongly denounced the story, saying no intelligence sources and methods were discussed — but they didn’t deny that classified information was disclosed.
Citing current and former U.S. officials, the Post said Trump shared details about an Islamic State terror threat related to the use of laptop computers on aircraft with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Russian Ambassador to the U.S. Sergey Kislyak.
The anonymous officials told the Post that the information Trump relayed during the Oval Office meeting had been provided by a U.S. partner through an intelligence-sharing arrangement. They said it was considered so sensitive that details have been withheld from allies and tightly restricted even within the U.S. government.
“I was in the room, it didn’t happen,” H.R. McMaster, Trump’s national security adviser, told reporters outside the White House late Monday.
“The president and the foreign minister reviewed a range of common threats to our two countries including threats to civil aviation,” McMaster said. “At no time, at no time were intelligence sources or methods discussed and the president did not disclose any military operations that were not already publicly known.”
He said Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Dina Powell, deputy national security adviser for strategy, remember the meeting the same way. “Their on-the-record accounts should outweigh those of anonymous sources” in the news report, he said.
Tillerson said Trump discussed a range of subjects, including “common efforts and threats regarding counter-terrorism.” He said that during that exchange the nature of specific threats were discussed, but they did not discuss sources, methods or military operations.
Powell said: “This story is false. The president only discussed the common threats that both countries faced.”
The Post story — which was later confirmed by The New York Times and BuzzFeed News — does not claim that Trump revealed any specific information about how the intelligence was gathered. Still, it will only heighten Trump’s strained relations with intelligence workers and former officials, who view Russia as an adversary.
Even before he was inaugurated, intelligence professionals worried about sharing classified information with Trump, who often shoots from the hip.
If true, the breach was ill-timed, coming a day after Trump fired former FBI Director James Comey, who was leading an investigation into Russian meddling in the presidential election. Trump’s first national security adviser, Michael Flynn, was fired after he misled Vice President Mike Pence about conversations he had with Kisylak.
It’s unlikely that Trump has broken any law. As president, Trump has broad authority to declassify government secrets.
The Post said the intelligence partner had not given the United States permission to share the material with Russian officials. By doing so, Trump would have jeopardized cooperation from an ally familiar with the inner workings of the Islamic State group, and make other allies — or even U.S. intelligence officials — wary about sharing future top secret details with the president.
Afterward, White House officials took steps to contain the damage, placing calls to the CIA and the National Security Agency, the newspaper said.
The CIA and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence declined to comment Monday evening.
Congressional Republicans and Democrats expressed concern about the report.
GOP Sen. Bob Corker of Tennessee, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, told reporters the Trump White House “has got to do something soon to bring itself under control and order.”
“The shame of it is there’s a really good national security team in place and there are good, productive things that are under way through them and through others,” Corker said. “But the chaos that is being created by the lack of discipline — it’s creating an environment that I think makes — it creates a worrisome environment.”
Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said that if the story is true it would be “deeply disturbing.”
Reaction from Democrats on the House and Senate intelligence committees was full-throated.
Rep. Adam Schiff of California called the story “deeply disturbing” and said if it’s true, the disclosure could jeopardize sources of very sensitive intelligence and relationships with key allies.
“That the Russians would be the potential recipients of this intelligence and may be able to determine its source is all the more problematic, since the Russian interest in Syria and elsewhere is, in many respects, deeply antithetical to our own,” Schiff said. He added that he wants the House intelligence committee fully briefed on what, if anything, was shared with the Russian officials.
Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., tweeted: “If true, this is a slap in the face to the intel community. Risking sources & methods is inexcusable, particularly with the Russians.”

The story prompted Sen. Martin Heinrich, D-N.M., to tweet: “Protip: Don’t give the Russians classified information. #Classified101.”

Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore. — who had just had a root canal — read reporters a statement he scrawled out in the dentist’s chair after learning about the story.
“These reports, if true, are of the gravest possible concern. It could harm our national security by cutting off important sources of intelligence that protect Americans against terrorist acts,” Wyden said.
The controversy engulfed the White House. Reporters spent much of the evening camped out outside of Press Secretary Sean Spicer’s office, hoping for answers. At one point, an eagle-eyed reporter spotted a handful of staffers, including Spicer and Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, walking toward the Cabinet Room.
Muffled yelling was heard coming from the area near the room, but after a reporter tweeted about the noise, press staffers quickly turned up their television volume, blasting the sound to drown out everything else.

There's been a lot of talk over the past several weeks regarding late music icons Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G.
Funkmaster Flex and Wack 100 have both weighed in with their controversial opinions about 2Pac and the 1994 Quad City Studio shooting, in addition to Big's murder.
Treach, Spice 1 and now Mac Minister have clapped back. Mac made a call from prison to Siccness.net, in which he addresses all of the drama.
"That shit Funk Flex said about 'Pac ain't a real nigga and Suge and Pac came to the East Coast they in their hotel rooms. Let me shut that bitch down," Mac said. "2Pac is a product of his motherfucking mama. She is so real. She birthed that nigga in jail. She was feeding him the knowledge, the wisdom and gave him a certain understanding that other motherfuckers can't understand, 'cause you ain't on that level. The realness that's in him, his mama displayed that.
"Pac walked through a hotel lobby [and saw] two white jumping on a nigga that he didn't even know. [He] opened fire on these white boys. Found out out they was the police. Went to trial [and] beat it."
Mac goes on to talk about 2Pac getting set up to take a rape charge and speaks on Wack, Flex, Diddy, Biggie, Suge Knight and E-40. (listen here: https://youtu.be/stsueXN7Nqg)

Funkmaster Flex continues to catch heat from friends of the late rap icon Tupac Shakur. Treach of Naughty By Nature recorded a diss song titled "Whoooh." Now, West Coast legend Spice 1 is taking shots at the radio personality from New York City's Hot 97, in a new Instagram video.
"Look, check this out, nigga. If I hear you say one more thing about my nigga ... nigga I'ma come out there," Spice says in the clip. "I'ma get on a motherfucking plane, Funkmaster Bitch. I'ma get on a motherfucking plane and I'ma come out there and I'ma go to [Hot 97]. And I'ma drag your bitch ass outta there, nigga. And I'ma stomp your fucking head in, you bitch ass nigga.
"Say something else. You ain't no gangster, nigga," he continues. "Shut the fuck up, nigga. Before somebody catch a plane out there and choke your faggot ass. Fake ass nigga. Say something else [and] I'll be on a plane, nigga."
All of this drama began because Flex claims 2Pac caused The Notorious B.I.G's murder, by allegedly falsely accusing the Brooklyn rapper of having prior knowledge that he would be robbed at Quad City studios in 1994.

He then explained that it used to be the A&R guy's job to pick out the beats, and Cassidy pointed out that beats aren't more important than the bars.
Moving along, Cassidy addressed ghostwriting and said that with the lack of bars in today's hip-hop, the ghostwriter better be a good rapper.
