‘Warning’ book from prez mole

Before the whistleblower, there was Anonymous.

As Congress hurtles toward impeaching President Trump, the nameless official who rocked the White House last year has written a book detailing the disturbing inner workings of his rule.

“A Warning” will hit shelves next month. It promises to elaborate and expand on the shocking details about the administration, including revelations that officials sometimes whisked papers off Trump’s desk to protect the nation from his most destructive impulses.

“This is serious stuff, and this is a serious warning about our president, ” Sean Desmond, publisher of the Twelve division of Hachette Books, told CNN.

White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham lashed out at the author in a scathing statement dripping with sarcasm.

“It takes a lot of conviction and bravery to write a book anonymously,” Grisham said.

The publisher says “elaborate precautions” have been taken to protect the identity of the author. It’s unclear if the author is still working in the Trump administration and the publisher declined to comment on that issue.

The original September 2018 opinion piece in The New York Times was headlined “I Am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration” and was a bombshell at the time. Its revelations included shocking claims that Trump often made ill-considered and reckless decisions that aides undermined or even reversed for the good of the country.

Trump lashed out at the author last year, calling him or her a “traitor,” in what was in many ways a preview of his of the intelligence whistleblower who sparked the Ukraine impeachment scandal.

The president even directed then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions to mount an investigation to discover the writer’s identity.

The op-ed’s publication also sparked an intense inside-theBeltway parlor game trying to identify Anonymous. Politicos resumed the guessing game last night, with some suggesting boldface Trumpland names.
