A forthcoming book by an ex-Trump administration aide describes an episode in which officials worried that then-President Donald Trump was cavalier in his handling of classified information while talking to reporters, according to a copy obtained by NBC News.
Miles Taylor, who was a top aide to Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, writes about the 2018 episode in a book set to be published this month. As a sitting president at the time, Trump had broad powers to declassify information. Yet the incident Taylor describes suggests that his aides still believed he needed to show more care toward state secrets — an issue that landed him in legal peril after he left office and took sensitive records with him.
Taylor is a prominent critic of Trump. He authored an anonymous op-ed while working at the Department of Homeland Security, in which he said that many senior administration officials were trying to limit Trump’s impulses and frustrate his agenda.

Queue the "Anonymous" source that claimed he was "The underground resistance at the White House". He was proven to have lied about many of his claims while others were presented with no facts.
You know, a typical mainstay of the Left's view that you need to believe all whistle-blowers, anonymous sources and of course all women - unless they are speaking against a Democrat than they are liars.

There is so much 'nothing' that gets marked classified and then people that have no clue in OPSEC get excited. Knowing our medical assets say in Syria right now is more of a classified material than probably most of what Trump has or had.
