There seems to be a stunning amount of bad (dis?)information going around about all this.
Broadwell is a prom queen and valedictorian from North Dakota who went to West Point. Hardy the MO of a spy...
She has top secret clearance herself. Since she has high level clearance, it is hardly surprising that she would have classified info, and the real complaint here seems to be a technicality that she should have had it locked up better.
We’ve now heard about the shirtless photo guy and Jill Kelley...Except now the NYT reports that the shirtless guy is actually a veteran agent who shot a gun-wielding intruder at MacDil a couple years ago. Also, the ‘shirtless’ photo was him posing with some shooting dummies in a silly picture shared between families that share goofy pictures with eachother. If it is true that there is nothing remotely sexual or private about the ‘shirtless’ photo, and no sexual relationship at all between shirtless guy and Kelley, why are we even hearing about a shirtless photo? It is like somebody is trying to make us think the guy is obsessed with her, when he is very likely just pursuing a weird email that knows too much about the movement of high level generals and CIA dudes.
It almost seems as if there are different factions within CIA and FBI that are at war with each other trying to shape the narrative.
Or perhaps it is just the fog of reporters trying to get to the bottom of a sex scandal, and hyping random details in order to make them more titillating?
Maybe there are still a couple of Americans left in those agencies.
