Jack Teixeira.

Here we go again. Teixeira is accused of leaking secrets that run the gamut from Confidential all the way up to Top Secret SCI or SAP.  He's part of the Massachusetts Air National Guard.

If he's convicted, he'll get the book thrown at him. They say he's some kind of a right-winger. Maybe, maybe not. We'll find out at trial.

Some of this stuff is embarrassing: you know, eavesdropping on the Mossad, Bibi or South Koreans while other things are already known by the enemy as in NATO special forces operating in Ukraine. That one was no longer news quite a while ago. Then there's the fun part about Bibi trying to elect Trump, by dishing the dirt on HRC, after getting a promise on the Jerusalem ask. No kidding.

But where my blood boils is when Putin is given a heads up about how deeply his Defense Ministry has been penetrated. You don't really get that with signal intelligence now do you...so the search is now on for traitors and moles which inevitably means some incredibly reliable sources will die. And not just a hand-ful, I'll wager.

That's unforgiveable and in my book should mean a court martial and firing squad, if convicted. Nothing can truly deter domestic traitors but this is the best we've got to serve as an example.

So, this guy will be held accountable if convicted. National security demands at least that.
