Sure every admin has leakers. I know that and never claimed it did exists in both tribes. But you appear to be OK with it.

Of course not. Government officials should never be allowed to convert government property (which information is) to the personal use. Whether they’re selling classified info to a foreign country or leaking classified info for personal purposes. Or stealing government money or even office supplies.

I just thought you were referring to people in the administration actively doing something like refusing orders in order to block the implementation of policies, which might warrant a structural change in how the agencies were set up if they were genuinely trying to exercise governmental power for themselves. Not something as prosaic as leaking dirt to the press.
