Sen. Mark Warner, the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, is calling for an investigation into the leak of transcripts of President Trump's phone calls with foreign leaders.

The Washington Post published transcripts of Trump's phone calls with foreign leaders on Thursday.

The leaked conversations included those with Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull about refugees and Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto about the proposed wall along the Mexican border.

Warner, D-Va., told the Daily Beast the leak was "absolutely" troubling and that the president should be afforded confidential conversations.

Warner stated the leaks represent a "chaotic" White House, while suggesting that a Senate panel, such as the Judiciary or Intelligence Committees, investigate the matter.

  1. If Trump were smart, he'd vacate the White House and set up shop elsewhere. It's riddled with surveillance apparatus under "who knows" control. He should pick a totally unexpected new place to do business from, and just do it.

    1. Seems his people would have searched and gotten rid of it before he moved in.
