WALLACE: I want to pick up on the leaks. You say you’re willing to take drastic action to stop them. Now, these are leaks both coming from inside the White House and also from what’s called the deep state, people in the bureaucracy, particularly the intelligence agencies or law enforcement. What kind of drastic action?

SCARAMUCCI: I’m being very, very clear with people. As far as I’m concerned that staff has amnesty. We’ll see how they do with me at the helm. If the leaks don’t stop, I’m going to pare down the staff because it’s just not right, Chris. I think it’s not fair to the president. It’s actually not fair to America or the people in the government.

I’m not going to be able to stop the leaks in the intergovernmental agencies and all that other stuff, that’s a whole different ball of wax. But something is going on inside the White House that the president does not like and we’re going to fix it.
