An anti-Trump IT specialist the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) was arrested on Thursday for attempting to provide classified national defense information to a foreign government.
According to the DOJ, Nathan Vilas Laatsch, 28, of Alexandria, Virginia, was arrested on Thursday in northern Virginia, and will make his initial court appearance in the Eastern District of Virginia on Friday.
The Justice Department said Laatsch offered to transmit classified information to the foreign government because he did not “agree or align with the values of this administration” and was therefore “willing to share classified information” that he had access to, including “completed intelligence products, some unprocessed intelligence, and other assorted classified documentation.”

Per the Justice Department:
According to court documents, Laatsch became a civilian employee of the DIA in 2019, where he works with the Insider Threat Division and holds a Top Secret security clearance. In March 2025, the FBI commenced an operation after receiving a tip that an individual — now known to be Laatsch — offered to provide classified information to a friendly foreign government. In that email, the sender wrote that he did not “agree or align with the values of this administration” and was therefore “willing to share classified information” that he had access to, including “completed intelligence products, some unprocessed intelligence, and other assorted classified documentation.”

I don’t know who the demonicRAT nominee for President will be in ‘28 but this guy is a shoo-in to be they/them’s running mate.
NO soap-on-a-rope for him!!
Something the libtard feminist socialist press never points out...
You jever see these kinds of stories when the president is a democrat. Those not of the democrat party dont pull this crap because they are at odds with the CIC. Only when its an “evil Republican” TM
No, but when they book him in, along with the standard prisoner issue, they’ll give him some Walz-mart brand tampons, a weave and a lipstick.
Why not prison in El Salvatore?
They shoot spies, don’t they? POS.
The boy looks like he needs a hemp dance party.
Like the atomic spies in the early 1950s who felt the Soviets should also know how to make The Bomb.
There just MUST be a J6 dungeon holding cell for this guy!
“Why not prison in El Salvatore?”
Because you can’t spell El Salvador?
SHOOT HIM.

And you shall be hung by the neck until dead. 😡
Hmmm... I think they have a name for that.
And you shall be hanged by the neck until dead.
As soon as the next Democrat becomes POTUS, he’ll get pardoned and be labeled as a political prisoner in the meantime, once pardoned, he will become a folk hero in the Trump resistance and end up make a nice living off the image that will be created for him.
In earlier days, cowards and deserters were shot. Sometimes on the spot. Immediate death.
Traitors and spies were hanged. Maybe one minute, maybe 30 minutes to suffocate. Hanging is far worse than a firing squad. That’s why the worst of the worst were subject to hanging rather than just being shot. The Rosenbergs got it on old sparky.
These days, we are infested with traitors against our own country.
Don’t forget, Gropey Joe Biden, aka Pedo Pete, commuted all death sentences for Federal prisoners. Or at least the Autopen did. Except for Leavenworth.
Nidal Hasan, killer of 13 people and attempted murder of 32 others, sits in his wheelchair with a death sentence at Leavenworth. Decades.
Poof! goes his career. Come to think of it, he sort of looks like a White version of Obola. . . Poof!
