Yesterday , Donald Trump ’s national security advisor H.R. McMaster evidence America that the report about Trump leaking classified information to the Russians were fake . That seems to havebeen a lie . But hopefully it will all get straightened out during today ’s resilient military press briefing .
you could watch the livestream of the McMaster press briefingon YouTube . It ’s scheduled to bulge out at 11:30am easterly time , 8:30am Pacific fourth dimension , and 6:30pm Moscow time . It ’s already tardy , but it could start at any minute .
Update 11:48am ET : The press league just started and McMaster is opening with a statement about Trump ’s trip subsequently this hebdomad to the Middle East .
“ There ’s nothing that the president takes more badly than the surety of the American people . The story that came out tonight , as report , is false . The president and the foreign diplomatic minister [ Sergey Lavrov ] review a range of mountains of coarse threats to our two counties , including threats to civic airmanship , ” McMaster say reporter last night .
But we ’ll see if he stay to that version of events .
White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer ’s daily briefing has been made into an off - camerabriefing today , which is unknown . So whatever McMaster say publicly in just a short while will be the face of this belated scandal .
Update 11:55am ET : McMaster does n’t back down from his word-painting that yesterday ’s story was false .
