Leaked Documents Likely Came From Air Guardsman at Fort Bragg, Officials Say

WASHINGTON—Investigators believe the leak of purported highly classified documents on Ukraine and dozens of other subjects likely originated from an Air National Guardsman who was based at Fort Bragg at the time of the leak, U.S. officials said, and an arrest could be made as early as Thursday.

One of the officials identified the guardsman as Jack Teixeira, 21 years old, of Bristol, Mass. Mr. Teixeira couldn’t immediately be reached for comment.

The new details on the investigation are the latest in a fast-moving probe by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Pentagon and others to pinpoint the source of a leak of documents that appear to have exposed details of U.S. surveillance of adversaries and allies, touching off multiple diplomatic storms and raising worries about undermining Kyiv’s fight against Russia.

If they can prove he did it, he’s so screwed.

Y’all don’t let Democrats in the military and you won’t have problems like this.

Probably can. It was put on a gaming discord chat. They were probably arguing about the war and who is winning. So he wanted to prove his point and uploaded those docs.

At least he didn’t get paid for it like Joe Biden did.

Biden has thousands of classified he had no right to in at least 3 different unsecured locations with communist Chinese having direct access at a university (Penn Center). He is selling secrets and taking bribes with his son Hunter as bagman. Yet they are not under arrest.

Trump though has been arrested on false made up charges.

One wonders if this leaker will be treated differently than “Chelsea” Manning.

My position is consistent across all administrations, despite the fact that I am alarmed by the U.S. support of this war that does not seem to have any strategy for an ending while soldiers are being slaughtered in their thousands:

They need to throw the book at this guy. If the sentence can be life, the sentence needs to be life.

Which begs the question why someone so very low in the military could have access to this info. A guardsman? Not even regular army?

Even if he’s innocent, they’ll probably make him guilty, especially if he’s a Trump supporter.

He is supposedly a gun enthusiast and religious. Bristol County is “happy peasants who pay taxes”, one of the more conservative precincts in Massachusetts. Not a likely Democrat. You never know, though.

Snowflakes and Zeros don’t take an oath very seriously. They’re not into patriotism or America either. Just a bunch of cell phone pokers.
