Trump admin in 'full panic mode' as ex-aide's documentary release looms: insider

An unnamed White House official tells Raw America the Trump administration is in “full panic mode” about a documentary by a former administration staffer.

Miles Taylor, who served as chief of staff at the Department of Homeland Security in President Donald Trump’s first term and later became a whistleblower, says the film will debut next week on Defiance.org. He says it shows “what Trump has turned Washington into.”

“[Taylor] potentially has information that the president wouldn’t want people to see,” the official told Raw America’s Brian Karem. “We’re anticipating the worst.”

Raw America doesn’t say what the film alleges, and the claim rests on one source. The White House isn’t quoted.

The outlet also describes a tense atmosphere, noting Trump told The Independent’s Andrew Feinberg to “be careful” and that Feinberg was then dropped from the traveling press pool. Feinberg called the move a “brushback pitch.”

All of this comes as a number of other damaging revelations are coming out about the Trump family.

A Vanity Fair article dropped on Thursday detailed extensive allegations about shady financial dealings of Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner, including payments to a warlord and a hitman, and a secret stash of $1 billion in the Israeli central bank.
