But the news that Trump shared intelligence with the Russians that was provided to the U.S. by a partner country in the Middle East — a nation that had not given the Americans permission to share the information with Russia — has raised questions about the legal issues and protocols that surround disclosures of classified information.
The New York Times reported Tuesday that Israel provided the intelligence in question, potentially complicating the U.S. relationship with its important Middle East ally.
H.R. McMaster, Trump’s national security adviser, would not confirm or deny if Trump shared classified information with the Russian foreign minister and ambassador during a meeting at the White House last week. He downplayed the seriousness of the information Trump disclosed, saying that Trump in the moment made the decision to reveal the intelligence to the Russians.
"Having served as Assistant Minority Counsel to the late Senators Howard Baker and Fred Thompson, it borders on the absurd to hear the comparisons from a gaggle of politicians and pundits between Watergate and the firing of the FBI Director by President Trump. Leaving aside that numerous Democrats have themselves 'demanded' the firing of Comey and that Comey himself notes that the FBI Director can be fired for 'no reason' at all, the comparisons are not only blatant partisan nonsense, they diminish the historic process which lead to President’s Nixon’s resignation in the summer of 1974," Michael Madigan, former assistant minority counsel on the Watergate Committee said Wednesday.
