Trump Summit Paper Leaks

White House Mocks NPR Over ‘Leaked’ Alaska Summit Papers: “It’s Just a Lunch Menu”

The White House is brushing off NPR’s report about documents from the Trump-Putin summit being left on a hotel printer blasting it as a laughable attempt to gin up scandal.

“It’s hilarious that NPR is publishing a multi-page lunch menu and calling it a ‘security breach,’” deputy press secretary Anna Kelly quipped to NewsNation. “This is why no one takes them seriously anymore and why President Trump cut off their taxpayer funding.”

The papers eight in total were found on a printer in Anchorage. They included the summit schedule, lists of American and Russian officials, the phone numbers of three U.S. staffers, and even the seating chart for a canceled lunch. The meal, which never happened, would have featured salad, filet mignon, and halibut olympia.

While NPR painted it as a “serious slip,” Trump’s team waved it off as bureaucratic leftovers from the State Department’s protocol office.

One White House official summed it up bluntly: “The media is crying wolf over a tossed-out menu while pretending it’s a spy novel. It’s pathetic.”
