Speaking of clearances I still want to know how we think we know that this kid has a “top secret” clearance for anything? He didn’t say so. Nobody who actually knows should be talking. So far it seems like the NYT or WAPO made it up. There are probly no more than three people on the planet who could find out what my old clearance level was and what it was for-—and they had best keep their pie holes shut tight. Most clearances are limited to the job at hand and we don’t really know what this kid’s job description actually is/was?
I don’t believe anything the government says anymore...period.
Sure
Bookmark.
Once again, TGP lets the morons write articles. The idiot author thinks rank determines who gets to see top secret material.
Everybody’s focused on the leaker and what’s going to happen to him and how evil he is or what a big hero he is. Nobody’s saying anything about what he leaked. We have boots on the ground in the ukranian war with russia. We are at war with russia and there’s not been any authorization for a use of force. The administration has been caught lying again and they’re trying to bury the lead by running this red herring across the path. Kringe von affirmative action hire binder reader will be passing on the administration cover story to the unquestioning media.
Of course this story does not hold water.
They lie.
My retired Colonel never saw it during his career. He told me, “At most, kids this age, might have a SECRET clearance.”Larry Johnson's Colonel friend may know all about SCIF's but he is out of touch with who is given a Top Secret security clearance. My AFSC in the Air Force was called Tech Control. To work in a Tech Control Facility requited Top Secret clearance. Some Control Centers required ‘TS/SCI’ such as AUTODIN or AUTOVON (now defunct in the digital age). I was an old timer in Air Force Basic Training, being in my twenties and married, plus I enlisted for six years so I had A1C (E3) stripes in Basic Training.
I point this out to show that thousands of 18 year olds passed DD Form 398 checks and FBI investigations for Top Secret security clearances. The Colonel needs to swim in his lane.
Yep.
Also it’s not a maybe I did!
What is the name of that movie the scene is from?
What really caught Johnson's attention (1:20), is the "CIA Operations Center Report - Top Secret". According to Johnson, that document is a internal use only report that does not go outside the CIA. He would know since he helped write them when he worked for the CIA.
Teixeira's security clearance is not the issue. No military base should have had access to several of the documents that were released.
Looks like “Wag the Dog,” 1997.
Yes, I caught that, and that should have been what he spoke about instead of wrapping himself around the axle regarding the age someone has to be to hold a Top Secret clearance.
