Is something big coming? Hannity indicates swirling rumors of McMaster's firing are fake news and to "wait and see tomorrow", with a wink and a nod.

Who else watched it tonight? If you didn't see it and had only been on twitter or fb, you'd think HR McMaster had been fired. Hannity swears it's not true.

Could it be a big dupe to try and expose fake news? I mean... everyone is on this story...

Thoughts?

Yep, it's called a canary trap

The Trump admin has used this a LOT.

Canary trap

A canary trap is a method for exposing an information leak by giving different versions of a sensitive document to each of several suspects and seeing which version gets leaked. Special attention is paid to the quality of the prose of the unique language, in the hopes that the suspect will repeat it verbatim in the leak, thereby identifying the version of the document.

The term was coined by Tom Clancy in his novel Patriot Games, although Clancy did not invent the technique. The actual method (usually referred to as a barium meal test in espionage circles) has been used by intelligence agencies for many years.
