Karoline Leavitt accuses Democratic senator of leaking information to Russian oligarch

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt sharply criticised Democratic Senator Mark Warner, accusing him of leaking sensitive information to a Russian oligarch. She also charged that the current administration has used the encrypted messaging application Signal to conduct official business, raising questions about transparency and compliance with government regulations.

Leavitt's statements have generated controversy, as they put the ethics and security of communication within the US government at the centre of the debate.
