A White House adviser on Europe and Russia issues has been placed on administrative leave pending a security-related investigation, two people with knowledge of his exit said Sunday.

Andrew Peek was escorted off the White House compound on Friday, according to one of those familiar with his departure.

In response to questions, the National Security Council, the foreign policy unit at the White House, said in a statement that “we do not discuss personnel matters.”

Security breach at White House, NSC Russia adviser escorted off premises


Oh Russia if you're listening... can you please return Andrew's phone

[riversedge]

1. "sexual honey traps" [via Malcomn Nance Retweet}...I am out of touch.

dah. I use my imagination to guess what that is.

[neohippie]

2. well the rumor is

people have said this refers to hookups with Russian hookers, who stole the adviser's mobile phone.

3. A Russian lady spy makes cutey eyes

at Andrew, then she steals his laptops and phones all the while she has video and photos of the 2 together.

That's just a guess on my part.

11. Russian women, often hookers, but sometimes spies themselves

their main goal is to obtain information. I highly recommend, The Americans series. An excellent show, that had unfortunate timing.

[Quackers]

24. Do you think it was Elizabeth? nt

[dewsgirl]

26. Of course..I miss that show so much, it's a shame the finale was

in 2017. Can you imagine the fan base they would have, if they premiered in when this shitshow started?

[Quackers]

28. Technically they still could.

Paige and Henry are still in play.

[dewsgirl]

29. Right. I think Henry's working with Stan by now.

[Quackers]

30. I just hope someone has covered the kids tuition by now. nt

[dewsgirl]

31. LoL😂 Stan's got Henry covered....hopefully he got Paige a good deal.

[NCjack]

4. No need to steal Peek's laptop and phone. At any time, Trump is willing

to answer all of Putin's questions.

[gab13by13]

6. You beat me to it.

[dewsgirl]

12. That's what I'm thinking, how do we even know about this? I'm surprised

they would bring attention to it, there must be more to the story.

18. I Believe A Reporter

Covering the Whitehouse observed what was clearly a security escort from the Whitehouse where the individual was determined to be Peck. Malcomb Nance is reporting that 2 people have been honey trapped. And this is the person that replaces Fiona Hill, who testified in the Ukraine scandal.

[dewsgirl]

22. She was wonderful.

I meant, I'm surprised they would punish and not promote him. There is something off with this story.

[atreides1]

32. True

But even Putin knows that he can't trust Trump to be forthcoming with all the information...so the Russians have other ways to insure they get every little bit...

[gab13by13]

5. Why would Putin have to use a spy?

All he has to do get information is to call traitor Trump himself.

[Lonestarblue]

9. Putin needs backup for anything Trump tells him.

Everyone but Trump’s supporters knows that he is a pathological liar. Plus, having access to personal messages where staffers may have called Trump an idiot offers much opportunity for blackmail for even more secrets.

15. Drumpf is a fuckuing moron

doesn't know shit. useful for sowing chaos and disruption, but other people have actual real info

[Mr.Bill]

7. This stems from these thugs

thinking that sex with hookers is just an expected perk of the job.

[C Moon]

27. There it is! I was trying to put it into words. Thank you!

[gab13by13]

8. Is this the real story?

Maybe Peek and the spy were working together and this is their coverup? Where is the Russian spy? Do we have her in custody or is she in the custody of William Barr?

[empedocles]

10. This kind of story can have many complicated levels

[lastlib]

13. We've had a massive security breach @White House since 11/9/16....

and haven't been able to stop it yet.

[Pacifist Patriot]

14. Beat me to it. I was going to say 01/20/2017, but your date works fine too.

[DallasNE]

16. Since This Person

Worked inside the Whitehouse there is a probability that listening devices have been installed inside the Whitehouse so security will need to perform a sweep to determine whether that has happened or not.

[gab13by13]

17. Fiona Hill was too honest.

[PSPS]

19. "placed on administrative leave" means awarded a paid vacation

We don't know if the hooker/spy goes with him on his paid vacation

[BlueIdaho]

20. You don't think Trump

Is going to talk to Putin on his own phone do you? Somebody’s got to carry the burner phone around the White House...

[Botany]

21. Is Andrew Peek married?

Just asking.

[gab13by13]

23. The most transparent administration ever, lol.

Too bad it isn't funny. When was the last daily press briefing? Can you imagine if president Hillary Clinton did that?

[maxsolomon]

25. Could be they found he was talking to the Press.

Asshole's been wanting to eliminate anyone who's not in the cabal.

33. Russians probing Donnie Short Fingers is NOT breaking news
