Feds arrest a government contractor for leaking secrets. Some of the documents were involving Russian meddlng in the election. |
The Department of Justice charges a former federal contractor with leaking classified information to an online news website. It seems like Donald J. Trump's "law and order" stance is coming to fruition.
Matter of fact, this incident will garnish sympathy for Trump.
They charge a 25 year old woman for leaking classified information to the junk food media. The woman, Reality Leigh Winner, is being held on the charges in a federal time out. She is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. She could face 35 to LIFE in federal time out.
The former federal contractor was arrested over the weekend after a National Security Agency report was leaked detailing an alleged cyberattack attempt by Russian military intelligence officials on a voting software company and local election officials.
The Intercept obtained the information on it. It published it anonymously. It "analyzes intelligence very recently acquired by the agency about a months-long Russian intelligence cyber effort against element of the U.S. election and voting infrastructure."
Winner is a former U.S. Air Force linguist who spoke four languages. She spokes Pashto, Farsi and Dari.
The very same assholes who support Julian Assange aren't coming to Winner's defense. They blast her on social media calling her a traitor.
See this whole ordeal is a part of Trump's relentless mission to stop classified information to be leaked.
Winner is a critic of Trump. She often posted on social media blasting him.
