As we told you earlier, Anthony Scaramucci accused someone in the White House of leaking his financial disclosure form to Politico. But, it turns out, the form was actually already public and there was no leak involved in the Politico article:
My source for @Scaramucci financials was Ex-Im Bank. Period. https://t.co/seNUtnwQoz

An earlier segment on Fox & Friends, however, called it a “leak”:

Politico’s VP of Communications Brad Dayspring asked for, and received, a correction:
Hey @foxandfriends – please retract/correct this. His disclosure was not leaked, this is false, more here: https://t.co/Uqfo2f4qCc https://t.co/s8mrlrCpzx

Update: Scaramucci's financial disclosure is public. F&F did not say @politico committed a felony. We were citing his tweets.

Thanks for clarification & acknowledging facts @foxandfriends. @Scaramucci falsely said it was felonious, which was repeated on show. https://t.co/uYsyFRKvA6
