The ''[[Washington Post]]'' reported that by 2013, Obama's ''Presidential Daily Briefing'' (PDB) was making its way to more than 30 recipients, including deputy secretaries of [[national security]] departments. Farkas was one such recipient.

Traditionally only a few people could access the full PDB. Under Obama however the President's Daily Brief went to almost everyone at top levels in his administration.<ref>While the practice was a laudable admission of Obama's weakness in foreign policy and national security matters, and his need of expert advisement, on the other hand it led a bloated feeling of self-importance and arrogance among the inexperirnced cadre of [[progressive]] [[liberal]]s Obama gathered around him. https://youtu.be/GPPx83VoLyY Farkas, [[Jimmy the Weasel]] Comey, [[Samantha Power]] are few examples, but a full accounting is too long to list.</ref> The ''Washington Post'' said:

{{Quotebox|"through most of its history the document has been marked “For the President’s Eyes Only,” the PDB has never gone to the president alone.

It is shocking that people outside of government readily admit to [[felon]]ious leaking of classified information. In January 2017 the ''[[New York Times]]'' reported, {{Quotebox|"In its final days, the [[Obama administration]] has expanded the power of the [[National Security Agency]] to share globally intercepted personal communications with the government’s 16 other intelligence agencies before applying privacy protections."<ref>[https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/12/us/politics/nsa-gets-more-latitude-to-share-intercepted-communications.html ]</ref>}} The expansion of the order made it difficult to narrow in on leaks.<ref>http://circa.com/politics/some-us-intelligence-officials-want-trump-to-rescind-obamas-expansion-of-nsa-data</ref> Farkas' use of the term "people on the hill" refers to people outside the [[Executive Branch]] - Congressional staff which numbers into the tens of thousands. Many staffers have press contacts and are sources of leaks. Once the materials fell into their hands, many partisan staffers then became armchair counter-intelligence sleuths, combing  through the leaked material, feeding their [[mainstream media|mainstream]] sources with their latest pet theories on Donald Trump being in the pay of the [[KGB]], and taking to [[Twitter]] threads with extended narratives full of speculation.

That Farkas was an active, willing participant in the [[leftist]] [[conspiracy]] to undermine [[democracy]] is undeniable.<ref>https://www.vox.com/conversations/2017/2/16/14630856/evelyn-farkas-trump-russia-flynn</ref><ref>One week before the 2016 election Evelyn Farkas told the Warsaw Security Forum "if Donald Trump were elected I believe he would be [[impeach]]ed pretty quickly or somebody else would have to take over government. And I am not even joking." https://youtu.be/pl_RATH89UM Farkas said "last summer I was getting winks and hints from inside that there was something really wrong here." https://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/04/08/ex-state-staffer-who-advocated-spying-on-trump-boasted-getting-winks-from-inside-obama-admin/</ref> The only question regarding her complicity is whether she was [[hoax]]ed by Brennan and the ''Steele dossier'', as the [[FISA court]] and millions of Americans were, as well.
