They don’t seem to be talking about this on tv. Weird, right?

So they nail some GS 7/9 schmuck while the Director class skates on their merry way.

You’d think that part of the vetting process for employees that handle highly classified information is that they are not living with or related to journalists.

Jail. Loss of any retirement benefits or any benefits period.

Next, the journalists who published the info and their editors.

This guy will probably get a slap on the hand. Meanwhile Roger gets 3.5 years.

Remember when Obama folks raided AP offices and their phone records for a 2 month period back in 2013? They were outraged. But they continued loving Obama and his wing man.

Oh and James Wolfe, Senate Intelligence aid, leaked info to a journalist he was having an affair with in 2018. He got 2 months in jail. He lied repeatedly to the FBI about his contacts with 3 journalists. He was facing up to 5 years in prison. Prosecutors wanted 2 years but the Judge gave him 2 months.

So, how come Vindman doesn’t face the same?

Bolton’s book supposedly contained TS/SCI info. And Vindman leaked it.

Certainly no 7-9, but since it doesn’t involve Dem candidate malfeasance it’ll probably be substantial.

He must be worse than Hillary. How many tens of thousands of felony violations did he commit?

If you ask me, the journalists and their employers should be prosecuted for knowingly accepting stolen property.

This case has been going on for a while.

The idiot, who’s twitter is now protected, is a virulent anti-Trumper

The reporter/traitor he was leaking to

https://twitter.com/amanda_m_macias

The first story Macias published based on his leaks

https://www.cnbc.com/2018/05/02/china-added-missile-systems-on-spratly-islands-in-south-china-sea.html

Apparently, some of his leaks wrt North Korea and China were significantly damaging.
