JUST IN: Chaffetz asks Trump to explain security measures at Mar-A-Lago after missile test

Rep. Chaffetz is asking the Trump administration to explain how they kept private government info safe at Mar-A-Lago after the North Korean missile test caused an impromptu security meeting with the president and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe at his resort.

From the Hill:

House Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) has asked the White House to detail its handling of classified information at President Trump’s winter vacation home in Florida, amid concerns that sensitive information may have been exposed in public.

In a letter sent to White House chief of staff Reince Priebus on Tuesday, Chaffetz asked for information about the administration’s security protocols at Trump’s Mar-a-lago resort, including what documents were present at a Saturday powwow and how the administration vets club guests and employees to ensure they are not spies.

The unusual request came after it was revealed that Trump and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe held a meeting in plain sight on Saturday to discuss North Korea’s most recent missile test.

Greta talked about the issue on MSNBC last night:

This comes just after the ethics committee (that Chaffetz is on) asked, AGAIN, that Trump discipline Kellyanne Conway for violating rules about shilling for private companies when she told America to buy merchandize from Ivanka’s clothing line.

So is Chaffetz a back-stabbing RINO betraying traitor, OR is there really something here to investigate? If there is, I’m betting there’s gonna be a lot more these next four years.
