#Classified #Documents #Leak
source
I still don't understand how it was possible to leak secret documents so easily, But the one who is guilty must be punished to the fullest extent of the law, So that no one else would even think to do so
We need to improve the security system. This kind of information leakage is very bad! How could this even happen?
This whole story is pretty bizarre. Is it by any chance made up for a Russian propaganda trap?
Recent weeks have seen the emergence of leaked intelligence documents on social media platforms, containing classified US data
There’s no reason to justify a criminal leaking classified documents that were linked to the US military database Is a crime that threatens US national security as well as our allies
This whole situation is still super confusing and it just looks like a movie, it's hard to believe that he did it all by himself and there was no one to stop him. If it was really him behind this leak though, clearly he must be punished according to law disregarding his age.
The leak could also harm US efforts to combat terrorism and other threats to national security.
Tunnel kid stained eyes, airsoft gun
If he’s smart enough or not to do the crime then his family can visit him behind bars. No, staying at home with the family those days should be over. Yes, I Will agree this all so confusing how does a low level gets those types of documents in their hands? I’m sure there will be more to come. I see scapegoat written all over this but with all the heightened attention around documents being leaked me personally talked to my supervisor or I would have made the decision not to show or say anything.
Ummm…..duh! How basic do we, the common, law respecting and abiding citizens of the United States, have to break down this obvious situation? We expect you (the elected, enlisted, oath-taking, appointed and/ or promoted) to protect us from exactly these persons and situations, and, if you fail, to prosecute to the full extent of the law. This does not imply going back to Mommy and Daddy’s house. This traitor, who clearly has many, many, many contacts, needs to stay incarcerated.
Again I say. This young man is an air national gaurdsman. He has leaked clasified or higher documents useing his security clearance access to do so. This is not only espionage it is treason. He is as a serviceman subject to the UCMJ uniform code of military Justice and should be tried in a general court martial.
I have so many unanswered questions and I'm sure it will stay that way too!…
No, they don't want him talking because he's a patsy.
Former commander in chief (trump) should be accountable.
Wait, how? He was literally staying put in his parents house.
The reality is that incompetent military IT doesn’t have control so they are worried he still has access
With his family at home? This wasn't a traffic ticket, he needs to stay in jail and give a full accounting of everything he did.
I hope he pulls a Chelsea Manning, then he will be a hero for the Left!
We might have just avoided another mass shooting.
Of COURSE they say he's a flight risk. Just like all the innocent Jan 6th people still in jail without bail, anyone against the current thief in chief and his administration must pay the price of losing their freedom and being subjected to arbitrary rules they make up that goes against constitutional rights.
This crap needs…..to…..stop
Of course they do. They always play everything up. It’s what these liars do. Where’s the little boy going to go?
as a veteran i know the military has MANY leaders. the higher the rank the more toxic they usually are
You can throw the book at him and bury him underneath the federal prison if you want but that's not addressing the problem that the United States does not have control of its secrets rooting this boy's life will not change that
So the doc leaks was true and russia is winning in Ukraine and the united states government has been lying and been asking taxpayers to fund a proxy war
You can throw the book at him and bury him underneath the federal prison if you want but that's not addressing the problem that the United States does not have control of its secrets rooting this boy's life will not change that
doesnt glow bright as the sun at all
I don't trust the media they always saying someone is guilty B4 all the facts comes out
Oh! This is suddenly a story again?
He is just a baby 👶🏻
Traitor.
Thank God we got the truth because of this kid
He's such a nice looking boy.
Zelemsky blaming the US for the war now, and he finally got something right
Free that boy
his bosses should have called their troops to protect them… lol he ain't no flight risk, which airport will let him thru ?
Is Biden a flight risk, he allowed a Chinese surveillance balloon to cross over the country and gather information about our nuclear launching sites that is a national security threat too….why isn't he being brought up on charges
Wow, this kid is in deep trouble! 🇺🇸
Of course Trump is a flight risk! His daddy, pooty Putin is missing him.
Another right-wing traitor, absolutely disgraceful
Lol lol we are all so dumb only in America lol lol
Lol lol lol A National Guard reserve. Reserve lol a reserve Escape goat.
You mean the leak that includes the fact Biden expects the EUkranian "spring offensive" to be a total failure?
The kid is a patsy. I don’t believe anything the government tells me.
Another person entering the government “ solitary “ torture chamber.
How about that mass shooters manifesto?
The government hides the truth and some guy shares it so now he's the worst person on earth? Grow up
