And to be completely fair, this was originally broken by Washington Post, which has a long history of corroborating their sources. I understand that an appeal to authority is hard to stomach these days, but I believe that Washington Post has shown more than enough evidence that they investigate their sources' claims thoroughly before publishing. If you don't want to trust this right now, that's your prerogative, and you can wait for the official comment by the administration.
