Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein is telling Americans to be "skeptical" of news stories that use anonymous sources.
"Americans should exercise caution before accepting as true any stories attributed to anonymous ‘officials,' particularly when they do not identify the country — let alone the branch or agency of government — with which the alleged sources supposedly are affiliated. Americans should be skeptical about anonymous allegations," said Rosenstein in a late Thursday statement.
He added: "The Department of Justice has a long-established policy to neither confirm nor deny such allegations."
Lots of chatter about this on twitter. The key point is that it seems to refer to other countries. There have long been rumors that our allies have intel on trump, and some of it may be about to drop.

They are going to keep up the drip drip drip to make him do something even crazier that implicates himself. They are running this like cops and the feds go after the mob. Create confusion and mistrust between all the "gang" and sooner or later the mad dash to the courthouse starts for the deals to be made.
My bet is that foreign IC will start dropping any dirt they have on the Republicans that are running interference for Orange 45. See if they are more interested in keeping their seats or bending over for trump and bannon.
There are rumors that one of our allied countries have had the Russian ambassador to the United States cell phone hacked, and recording for quite some time. Could be they've decided it's out so they might as well dump the data.
Holy sht, I've stayed away from this board the last few months - but we now have posters referring to those lunatics Louise Mensch and Claude Tsylor? Wow.
Or here's a try....Russia is looking to destabilize our country with a propaganda campaign, and the left and media are happy to facilitate it.
Rod could be looking to save his own ass as to why his special investigation is leaking.
The press release tonight from Trump’s DOJ is only three sentences long, but here’s the one that tells you everything you need to know: “Americans should exercise caution before accepting as true any stories attributed to anonymous ‘officials,’ particularly when they do not identify the country – let alone the branch of government – with which the alleged sources supposedly are affiliated.” link). It’s not difficult to read between the lines here: Trump has gotten word that something devastating about him is about to leak from a foreign intelligence agency, and he’s twisting the DOJ into preemptively debunking it.
Based on the fact that this was released late at night rather than first thing tomorrow morning, our educated guess is that the forthcoming leak is coming from the European intel community.

The leaks are NOT coming from the FBI, Mueller or his team.
THIS is the real story:

A legal news pundit was positing that it could have come from one of the people FBI has asked to speak to regarding the investigation or someone connected to those people such as their legal team or family/friends.
I actually heard the exact same statement on FOX tonight - amazingly, enough. Never watch FOX. Couldn't believe they were being truthful for once.

Ha - maybe the Brits - seeing as how Trump defamed them, too. Serves him right.
