The alleged Pentagon leaker has been found.
The suspicion that it was a member of our military was correct.
Authorities arrested a 21-year-old Air National Guardsman, Jack Douglas Teixeira, and he will be charged under the espionage act.
Treason?
Even though the leaked papers are devastating for the Biden administration in terms of the lies that were being told, this is treason in my eyes.
If Teixeira really wanted to do something about the deception of the administration, he should have taken the information to a member of Congress.
Some of the information that was leaked not only puts our country and operations at risk, but it could also severely jeopardize relations with key allies.
Marc Thiessen, the former chief speechwriter for President George W. Bush, stated, “It is treason, the idea that a 21-year-old kid can expose sources and methods of how we spy, how we have penetrated the Chinese People’s Liberation Army, because apparently, we’ve exposed the fact we know they have a new hypersonic missile that can reach the United States, that they exposed our penetration of the Russian Defense Ministry, that could affect the war in Ukraine. I mean, the incompetence is stunning.
“And it wasn’t, unlike Edward Snowden and Chelsea Manning, it wasn’t ideological. It was some kid trying to show off to his friends in a gaming chat room and has literally affected global national security by doing so. How this happens is just beyond me.”
Senator Tim Scott (R-S.C.) added, “We’re talking about imperiling likely American lives.
“We’re talking about weakening our relationship with our allies, emboldening the strength of our adversaries and revealing plans about attacks and coordination for Ukraine and other allies.”
I have seen one member of Congress almost tout Teixeira as a hero.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) tried to downplay the nature of what Teixeira did, but I sure hope that narrative does not gain steam among her MAGA followers, because there is no way around this… it was treason.
