CNN anchor Kate Bolduan lost it on Trump-supporting former Navy SEAL Carl Higbie during a Tuesday night roundtable interview. Discussing reports that President Donald Trump had shared highly classified information with Russian diplomats during last weeks White House meeting, Bolduan became enraged during the segment.

When asked by Bolduan if it frightened him as a military man that Trump may have shared classified information with Russian officials, Higbie fired back hard.

Ive been sitting here quietly listening to all this B.S. quite frankly, Higbie observed of the rest of the panel at the roundtable discussion. Did you listen to anything [White House National Security Adviser H.R.] McMaster said today? Where he said, I was in the room, that didnt happen?

Higbie was referencing McMasters comments, which alleged that Trumps conversation with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak was wholly appropriate.

As Bolduans temper rose, Higbie became more composed.

Higbie attacked outlets such as CNN over using anonymous sources who were purportedly knowledgeable of the situation regarding the Russian meeting and were running with the allegations.

Youre basing all of these allegations off of one or maybe two sources, Higbie said. Two former officials? Come out, name those people, then well have something to talk about.

Bolduan claimed that many other liberal outlets received the same type of tips from anonymous sources, such as ABC, NBC and The New York Times.

Yeah, but who are the sources? Higbie asked. Oh, because theyre hiding behind this anonymity.

Bolduan was triggered by Higbies dismissal of the anonymous sources and began shouting at the former Navy SEAL.

Oh, please! Please! Bolduan shouted. Do not even start with me, that youre just going to attack sources. That is ridiculous!

Higbie, undeterred, asked Bolduan outright if she felt that McMaster was lying.

Im not saying McMaster is lying, Bolduan countered. He didnt answer the question. You cannot attack do not attack the stellar reporters of CNN, who have their sources and would protect their sources.

Seeming to find the term stellar reporters entertaining, Higbie mocked, OK, the stellar reporters of CNN that I am going to attack right now and say: Guess what? I dont believe them because they are staying anonymous. If they stand behind the story, come out, face the camera.
