leakiest
Letting most through
Leakiest is the superlative of leaky—having the most leaks or being most prone to letting things escape.
A roof, boat, or pipe can be the leakiest in a group.
Figuratively, the leakiest organization or administration is the one where confidential information most readily reaches the press: This is the leakiest White House in decades.
