My first though was that McGahn leaked it. Kingofalldems Jan 2018 #1

I can't believe McGahn would have leaked it without Mueller's permission More_Cowbell Jan 2018 #2

Where is McGahn right now? C_U_L8R Jan 2018 #3

Maybe Trump will fire McGahn and replace him with Jeanine Pirro dalton99a Jan 2018 #9
