Washington Post:
Three White House officials linked to files shared with House intelligence chair

The White House role in the matter contradicts assertions by the committee chairman, Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.), and adds to mounting concerns that the Trump administration is collaborating with the leader of the House investigation into Russian meddling in the election.
The Post seems hell bent on ignoring the real scandal here and that is the Obama administration's using the intelligence agencies to spy on the political opposition.  The fact that the Trump administration is cooperating with the chairman of the intelligence committee is something to be applauded and not treated as if that is a scandal.

So many at the Post have become anti-Trump partisans that they collectively have lost the plot.  They are willing to overlook lawlessness to pursue their partisan objectives in much the same way the Democrats have.  Or perhaps they are trying to distract from the pursuit of their sources who have violated the law.

The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
