He was a Chinese spy for 5 years? And it’s Trump’s fault?
Basically all Mormons appear to be turncoats with no morals.
So you have to read the entire freaking article and then in the third graph from the bottom you get the money shot. Mormon. As retired Colorado Springs homicide detective Joe Kenda would say, “My...my...my”.
This is the first mention of Huber doing anything in terms of prosecution. Hopefully he has been busy behind the scenes and we will see a flood of Deep State traitors arrested and prosecuted...
Hang him.
the guy certainly has a high opinion of himself!
Your question should be restated. How many of the people who work for Our Government actually work for Our Government?
sleeper agent, probably since he was a Mormon missionary. Makes you wonder how many Chinese sleepers are embedded in the US Intelligence community. John Brennan?
I wonder if..................how many commie (AND muzzie) agents have been tunneling into our government since the ‘Nam war; and now, of course, in the years after 9-11.
BOTH with similar motivations—a hatred of the USA, and now the ‘progressive’—fueled hatred of DJT?
Have you noticed how many ethnic Chinese people we have in tech, theses days?
EVERY ONE OF THEM IS A TARGET for the commiechinks. Every single one of them.
Giving Huber a public win before he caves on Hillary (again).
I must be stupider than I thought.
I just don’t get the TIMELINE on this thing.
What war was President Trump going to start five years ago?
I admit I don’t always understand what Gertz writes.
All of these “Hansen’s” spying for Russia and China are going to give the Hansens a bad name.

I’m late to the game on Traitor Hansen, but it reminded me of Robert Hanssen, the former FBI agent working for Russia. I wonder if there’s a family link...just slightly spell the surname differently to throw on the family comparison? Not to mention Coastguard Lieutenant, Christopher Paul Hasson. Hansen, Hanssen, Hasson. Sheesh! No wonder people see conspiracies.
beginning in early 2014.....Obama must have said it was OK.

APRIL 10, 2018 : (RON HANSEN INFORMS FELLOW DIA EMPLOYEE, WHOM HE IS TRYING TO RECRUIT ON BEHALF OF CHINA, OF HIS CONCERNS ABOUT TRUMP POSSIBLY STARTING A WAR -— See DIA, CHINA, ESPIONAGE/SPIES/SPOOKS) ... A former Defense Intelligence Agency officer who spied for China worked secretly as a Beijing agent for five years and revealed in an intercepted phone call he was motivated in part by hatred for President Trump....Court documents in the case reveal Hansen was motivated by both money and an affinity for China. In seeking to recruit a DIA coworker as a fellow Chinese spy, he voiced fears that Trump would start a war and said that was a reason to cooperate secretly with several Chinese intelligence agencies or branches in providing information and trying to penetrate U.S. defense and intelligence agencies to obtain secrets. ...
Hansen’s feelings for Trump were disclosed in a transcript of an electronically intercepted conversation on April 10, 2018, between Hansen, identified by his FBI code name “Gray Willow,” and the DIA case officer who was cooperating with authorities.
Hansen explained in the phone call why he was making a risky spying pitch to the officer who was not identified by name.
“The fact, because I hate Trump,” Hansen stated. “I know he wants to start a war somewhere. I don’t want you to die for no reason. That’s the only reason we’re having this conversation.”
Hansen then said if the DIA officer were paid $500,000, he also would make the same amount.
Asked by the officer if the promise of getting large sums of cash from notoriously stingy Chinese intelligence agencies was sincere, Hansen said, yes.
But he also issued a blunt warning that Chinese intelligence is prepared to kill those who work secretly for them.
“Just share one other thing in having worked very closely the Ministry of State Security, Ministry of Public Security, [Beijing State Security Bureau], they’ll kill you if you fuck them over. They are not above sending someone here to hunt you down and kill you,” Hansen said, adding that “you’ve seen with the Russians’ that’s pretty easy to do.”
Apparently referring to the Russian intelligence assassination in Britain of defector Alexander Litvinenko in 2006, and the attempted assassination of another defector Sergei Skripal in 2018, Hansen said the Russians were sloppy in assassination tradecraft.
“The Chinese are not like that,” he said. “You’ll just be [killed] in a car accident.” —— “Former DIA Officer Who Spied for China Hated Trump, Court documents reveal Chinese intelligence targets ,” Free Beacon, March 20, 2019 4:59 am | Bill Gertz

MARCH 2019 : (RON HANSEN PLEADS ‘GUILTY’ -— See DIA, CHINA, ESPIONAGE/SPIES/SPOOKS)
Ron Rockwell Hansen... was arrested June 5 and pleaded guilty on Friday in Utah to attempting to sell national defense secrets to China. He faces 15 years in prison under a plea deal. Sentencing is set for Sept. 24. ....
Hansen admitted in the plea agreement he met frequently with Chinese intelligence agents beginning in early 2014.
“During those meetings, the agents described to me the type of information that would interest Chinese Intelligence,” Hansen stated in the pleading. “During the course of my relationship with Chinese intelligence, I received hundreds of thousands of dollars in compensation for information I provided them, including information I gathered at various industry conferences.”
Hansen also agreed to disclose details of his contacts with Chinese intelligence as part of the plea deal. He also agreed to turn over all electronic devices, including laptop computers and flash drives. ...
U.S. Attorney for Utah John W. Huber said the case was damaging. The plea agreement convicted Hansen of the most serious charge in the original indictment, he said. Fourteen other counts will be dropped.
“A former United States intelligence officer engaged in a multi-year relationship with Chinese intelligence operatives where he sold them information they wanted,” Huber told the Washington Free Beacon. “That statement, in and of itself, helps us appreciate the damage that Hansen has caused.”
Huber said Hansen admitted that the military secrets he obtained were to be used to injure the United States and advantage a foreign power.
“What should be sacrosanct in our character as Americans is this: we do not betray our nation,” Huber said.
“This case illustrates that the Peoples Republic of China has made a sophisticated and concerted effort to steal our nations secrets.” —— “Former DIA Officer Who Spied for China Hated Trump, Court documents reveal Chinese intelligence targets ,” Free Beacon, March 20, 2019 4:59 am | Bill Gertz

Mormon spying on the NSA facility in UT I bet.
I have suspected for a couple years that this is the real reason the Mormon power base has united against Trump.
They didn’t want anyone to know about why the NSA setup operations in UT or how they got the funding to do it.
This is the second Hansen, or variant thereof, to be accused of espionage.
