The monumental idiocy of leaker Reality Leigh Winner
Washington Examiner ^ | Jun 9, 2017, 2:26 PM | Becket Adams

Posted on 06/10/2017 2:11:02 AM PDT by GonzoII

The online news outlet that unwittingly outed the Georgia woman who has since admitted to providing them with classified National Security Agency documents may not be the dumbest entity in this story.

Reality Winner, 25, whose top-secret clearance gave her access to the now-leaked NSA information, has been coaching family members via jailhouse phone calls, which are monitored, on how to manipulate investigators and the press, according to prosecutors. Her plan, they said, is to portray herself as some sort of scared, doe-eyed neophyte.

This story doesn’t make sense. I’ve said that from the beginning. There were enough red flags to deny her security clearance. This is what George Webb would call a “school play”.

I think she was a patsy. It has been reported that she had to search for the leaked report. Who told her what to look for? How did she get a security clearance with her social media history?

She is nothing. The architect of destroying our national security is Barack Hussein. There are thousands just like this lesbo. The little queer was freed by Barack and most will never be prosecuted.

I’m thrilled that they caught this traitor, however I’m dismayed that the methodology used to track her down was revealed.

It worked once, but will probably never work again on other traitors. Now “news outlets” will never again publish an image of national security documents, only posting the text.

But see, none of that matters. What matters is she made a difference.

For today’s American women making a difference is all that really matters.

It just smells like a heavy handed attempt to bring the dying Russia narrative back to life.

Patsy? Most likely scenario is she was a tool, predisposed to the grand scheme.

At the very least it is/was breathtaking incompetence to allow her near classified info.

Clever enough to secure a top-secret clearance, but apparently not clever enough to keep her mouth shut.

Wrong. In this affirmitive action age she was the correct gender...she got the job. She seems so stupid because she IS that stupid. Once her shortcomings would have precluded her being hired.

Okay; but I’m not seeing what they did exactly. Was it because they had a conversation with her about how she would look and act in court? I’m not sure it rises to the level of a crime. I see it more as moral support for their kid like “okay if you think it will help”.

So far all I’m seeing about them is they are worried and distraught for their kid like any parent would be. Somehow I doubt they encouraged her to take this path or if they did; they didn’t mean to break the law and become a felonious traitor.

Are you seeing or hearing something about them I’m missing?

"All US Govt. security clearances need to be reviewed NOW! "

Especially in the company where Reality worked. The people working with her had to know she should not hold a clearance. It's not like she was carefully hiding things. Even if she was, they should have known. It is their duty to protect sensitive information whether it is in their direct possession or not.

I have searched but have not been able to answer the questions”

Where did she learn to speak in the foreign languages?
How is it she is fluent in three mid-eastern languages?
Was she sent to the Defense Language Institute to learn the language? Why this particular person.

As is typical of her millennial cohorts in general. Precisely the type Obama sought out for sensitive positions.

I don’t think this Snowflake realizes how much trouble she is in.

What she did was nowhere near as bad as what Hillary did. She's probably imagining that she will be treated as special too.
