This Monday just after news broke of President Trump divulging classified info to Russian officials, reporters at the White House allegedly overheard an argument between Trump adviser Steve Bannon, Press Secretary Sean Spicer, Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, and Communications Director Michael Dubke.
The screaming was reportedly so loud that White House staffers turned up the volume on TVs in order to drown out the noise.
The alleged argument was relayed by BuzzFeed‘s Adrian Carrasquillo in a series of tweets after One America reporter Trey Yingst reportedly witnessed the trio walking into the Cabinet Room looking displeased with how the story played out.
According to Carrasquillo, “yelling” began to reverberate from behind the closed doors.

According to an exclusive report from the Washington Post, President Trump revealed “highly classified information” to the Russian foreign minister and ambassador during a White House meeting last week.
Drawing from current and former U.S. officials from inside the White House, the Post reported that the intel was related to a “critical source” regarding the Islamic State inside Iraq and Syria. The information Trump divulged “had been provided by a U.S. partner through an intelligence-sharing arrangement considered so sensitive that details have been withheld from allies and tightly restricted even within the U.S. government.”
