Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign roasted former President Donald Trump on social media following a Wednesday night leak involving his campaign's senior officials.
On Wednesday evening, Puck News' Tara Palmieri reported that a leaked memo from Trump campaign co-chairs Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles warns staffers on no uncertain terms not to make unauthorized contact with the press in any way — or face termination.
"Throughout this campaign, we have sent periodic reminders of our communications and press policy when interacting with reporters and media members," said the email, which began with the subject line, "IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ."
"Unless you have been authorized by Senior Leadership or have received permission from an authorized member of the Communications Team, you should not be independently speaking or communicating with any member of the press — on or off the record," the email said.

The memo continued, declaring that they've "done a great job of preventing leaks, and that has been because everyone knows what the policy is and what we expect from everyone. Information is power — and the press doesn't give a d--- if you lose your job because you spoke out of school."
In response to the leak, Ammar Moussa, rapid response director for the Harris campaign, put out a mocking message: "We’re at the leaks about leaks part of the Trump campaign! We’ve all seen this movie before."
Trump has obsessed over rooting out leaks in past years, as embarrassing stories came out from confidential sources.
Nor is this the first leak that has emerged from the Trump campaign. In the immediate aftermath of the assassination attempt against Trump in Pennsylvania earlier this summer, LaCivita and Wiles put out a message to staff warning them against commenting on the event on social media and to avoid "dangerous rhetoric."
