        This is funny, but just to keep things somewhat accurate the article says

        This means multiple people who are “need to know” on this are frustrated enough with the situation that they’re leaking it to NYT, but the fact that that’s happening is just more evidence for the same basic conclusion - they’re a bunch of morons.
