Got a few questions for you if you do not mind:
1. Do you think it was a crime committed with these leak?
2. Do you think Flynn's constitutional rights were violated since
he was a private citizen at the time of these calls?
3: Do you think these leaks benefit anyone in anyway besides the opposition
party that trump is fighting on the left and the right?
4: Do you think these leaks are going to prevent anyone sharing intelligence now
with fear it might come back to them as the source?
5: Do you think the ones that leaked should be prosecuted?
Curious to your reply's.....

Can I remind you that Trumps ex campaign manager Paul Manafort has been under FBI investigation since last spring? You can bet part of that investigation is survailing his communications if they found anything alarming, and communications of others linked to him, like Flynn.
Intercepted Russian Communications Part of Inquiry Into Trump Associates
Survailing Russian inteligents officials is standard intelligence procedure, as is survailing communications with ambassadors. This is how this info was leaked. So no, I don't think anyone's rights were violated.
Some Leaks are illegal, other leaks are not illegal and whistle blowing is not illegal, it's a fine line.
Republicans in power are letting this happen. There is so much infighting in the Republican party and Trump has clearly been compromised. Trump is erratic and contradicts himself in the same sentence. Trump can't answer a single question without going off topic about winning the election, etc. etc.
These leaks benefit the opposition within the Republican party that want Trump gone. The leaks won't impact the future gathering or sharing of intelligence. Leaks have always happened in every administration. Trumps leaks are unprecedented because he's purposely devisive within his own party and trashed all intelligence agencies, he did it again today, so his opponents within the Republican party are getting info from inteligence agencies and leaking it
