The White House has reportedly identified the official who was the author being an anti-Trump resistance book “A Warning.”
According to The Daily Caller:
The White House has identified and will soon part ways with the “anonymous” official behind a recently released book and a “resistance” focused editorial published in the New York Times, former U.S. attorney Joe diGenova claimed Monday morning.
DiGenova made his claim on WMAL’s “Mornings on the Mall,” but senior White House officials declined to comment on the topic when asked by the Daily Caller.
In the book, “A Warning,” released in November, the anonymous official states there is a group of White House staffers actively hoping for President Donald Trump’s “downfall.”

“Real authors reach out to their subjects to get things fact checked–but this person is in hiding, making that very basic part of being a real writer impossible,” she said in response to the news of the book’s release.
Before the book was released the Justice Department worked to reveal the author but it is unclear how the identity was determined. The Trump admin is axing some 70 Obama holdovers from the Security Council.
