A former civilian employee of the Defense Department was sentenced Thursday to three months in prison after admitting to taking materials containing classified information to her hotel room and to her personal residence...

I’ll bet Asia Janay Lavarello did too.
Must be a Trump voter.
Proper protocol is to keep such material locked in your garage. Or something.

If ‘intelligence’ is leaking to CNN AGAINST Biden - then Biden’s toast.
Everyone know that there are two sets of laws. One for common folk and another, laxer set for the elite and ruling class.

And Jan. 6th non-violent protesters are still in jail for many more months or longer than any govt document mishandler including the late Sandy Burlar Berger thief who stole classified documents from the National Archives and even destroyed some.
The Democrats are more treasonous re the Constitution than the Red Chinese and Putin combined.
Nothing on Hillary and Huma yet?

I’m surprised the two of them haven’t come out as a lesbian couple yet. They would be a shoe-in for President and VP in 2024. “How brave, how strong”!
Some potatoes are more equal than actual people.

Hunter Biden’s driver’s license (above link) - same address as ‘the big guy’ and his trove of classified documents.
Now how about his boss Biden?
And yet Hillary gets a pass for a much worse violation. I wonder why. Surely justice is equally applied in the USA.
