Time to break out the polygraphs

FINDING LEAKERS SHOULD NOT BE THAT DIFFICULT

FOREIGN RELATIONS WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE

The Leaking of details of discussions of the President and foreign leaders must be eliminated now. Foreign policy will be impossible under these circumstances. No foreign leaders will engage in frank discussion until this problem is remedied. This is not all that difficult. Every employee of the CIA, NSA, or the FBI or any other agency engaged in national security must agree to take polygraph tests on request. It should be possible to determine which individuals had access to these recordings. Then line them for the polygraph, while it may not be used to prosecute them if they fail, they will be put into a situation that will make leaking much harder. And if enough evidence is there to prosecute, they should be prosecuted to the limit. This is not a situation of idle gossip that goes on in the private sector. These people know the rules when they accept employment. Their loyalty has to be to the administration and the country, not to former heads or political parties. If they cant stomach the administration and these restrictions, do the honorable thing and look for another job or transfer to the post office.  I would expect these leaks will be eliminated in the foreseeable future.
