Ron Rockwell Hansen plead guilty to spying for China as part of plea agreement. Special agents of the FBI, IRS, U.S. Department of Commerce, the Department of Defense, U.S. Army Counterintelligence, and the Defense Intelligence Agency were involved in the investigation ... but not the C_A. Curious? I'm trusting Huber for the happenings.

The layers of protection are breaking apart. We're getting closer to seeing who is behind the curtain. I've heard rumblings that HC has requested a deal and that it was refused. I anxiously await to hear definitively if that is or is not true. Regardless, these are exciting days!

during George washington’s time, he would either bayonet or shoot turncoats without thinking about it, and he sent someone to kill Arnold after the betrayal..the nation has gone soft.

We have a plea deal with a signals intelligence expert, having both Chinese and Russian knowledge, headed up by US Attorney John Huber with assistance from the FBI, IRS, U.S. Department of Commerce, the Department of Defense, U.S. Army Counterintelligence, and the Defense Intelligence Agency, but not the C_A. Hansen is cooperating. Put those dots on a board and start connecting them. The shell is cracking.

Consider that he might be more useful alive. Little fish are used to catch bigger fish. And catching bigger fish is the real fun.

How about a former Secretary of State guilty of ACTUAL espionage for Christ’s sake.
