“Either we’re the good guys, or someone else is. If it’s us, we are supposed to obey our own laws.”

I agree, but that’s why we have a Chain of Command and an Inspector General. Not the NYsLimes and Newsweak.

I just wonder how much the sleazebag was paid to sell our Country out.

See yazoo’s post 16 for the correct answer. And as I said to Mr. Jazzy, according to the article, he tried talking to people in his organization about the problem, and did not get any help there. Unless you consider the one person telling him “they're probably doing something illegal” to be help. I've seen the IG not working because people were afraid to use it because it whitewashed improper and possibly illegal activities. There is a reason we have constitutional protections for a free press specified in the Bill of Rights.

Also from the article, it doesn't look like he got any kind of payment or even protection. Barring info otherwise, I'm willing to presume that he did what he thought best after trying the other options. Finding out that sort of thing is what trials are for, after all.
