The reports from The New York Times and The Washington Post both match reports from The Daily Caller News Foundation, which would appear to identify Stefan Halper as the FBI's secret informant that the bureau allegedly used to gather information about the Trump campaign during the 2016 election.
The most important story to come from The New York Times and The Washington Post's reports is not necessarily the identity of the informant, but the undeniable revelation that someone is leaking the information about the informant to the two newspapers.
A source familiar with the matter told The Daily Wire late on Friday night that leaks are most likely coming from the Department of Justice and the FBI.
"It appears that the DOJ and the FBI are burning their own sources by leaking information, that they have been refusing to give to Congress, to The Washington Post and The New York Times all for the purpose of spinning an embarrassing story," the source told The Daily Wire.
The source noted that if this is true, the officials are leaking key information about the alleged identity of the informant that they themselves claim would endanger the informant and the informant's contacts if their identity was ever revealed.
