Times are tense at the Secret Service.
The Business Insider reports that “the normally tight-lipped agency is now consumed by an intense, high-level guessing game over who was motivated to leak information to the Washington Post’s Carol Leonnig,” who first published accounts of misconduct at the agency.
Secret Service officials are angry and want to know who is leaking the information.
“There’s a lot of speculation,” said an insider, calling the leaks “problematic.”
Because the accuracy of some of the reports have been called into question, some officials are questioning whether the leaker is a disgruntled employee.
“Someone or some group of people who really have a bone to pick with the agency overall,” a government source said.
