Trump after Flynn resignation: 'The real story here is why are there so many illegal leaks coming out of Washington?'

President Trump took a shot at the people who told reporters about former national security adviser Mike Flynn's communications with the Russian ambassador about sanctions after Flynn resigned Monday.

"The real story here is why are there so many illegal leaks coming out of Washington? Will these leaks be happening as I deal on N.Korea etc?" Trump tweeted.

Questions are being raised about what Trump knew about Flynn's conversations with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak in December, before Trump took office. Reports indicate transcripts of the calls showed Flynn may have indicated to Kislyak that the administration could ease President Obama's sanctions on his country once Trump took office.
