Do I believe that? Given how weak the White House response has been? Based on how people inside the White House are freaking out? Yes. Reporters were tweeting they could hear Bannon, Spicer and Sanders screaming at each other. So they turned up the TVs really loud in the room the reporters were in.
This seems like a well-reported and solid story. Other news agencies confirmed with their own sources.
One of the reporters on this story is on TV. He mentioned they had this story shortly after it happened and there were discussions all day today about what information needed to held back to not further compromise national security.
You understand a story this big cannot be contained, right? Too many people know about it.
A former WP reporter just tweeted this
How to tell @gregpmiller and @GregJaffe have it right: They know which details Trump told Lavrov. Officials asked WP not to publish them.
EDIT:
Think I'll just keeping updating stuff here
Daily Beast: Comms staff, senior W.H.staffers were literally "hiding in offices" after the WaPo story broke.
If Trump didn't share highly classified info, why did officials ask WashPost to withhold info so sensitive it could harm US capabilities?
Did I misread that? Sorry, stupid mistake. That makes more sense. Turned up TV's would seem pretty suspicious though ... but that's what I would do too. Thanks.

Why is this propaganda?

JP is a lobbyist (and a world class underage sex slave op cover-upperer).
It's his job to push propaganda.
Any article promoted by JP is lacking in credibility imo. No matter the topic.

No matter the truth of the topic?

The life consuming job of a highly political, highly paid lobbyist and the thought of speaking truthfully don't much factor together.

Podesta is not the source of this story.
The story is the story. Not Podesta commenting on it.

"... according to current and former U.S. officials..."
These are the sources. Ghosts. Or worse. Do you honestly think Trump gave out "Highly Classified Information" to them pesky Russians?

See my latest submission. And quit watching TV.
And if there was shouting the reporters would have turned up their ears not their TV's. (Not that there wasn't any shouting.)

White House aides turned up the TVs so the reporters would not hear the shouting.
