U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin briefed reporters on the leaking of dozens of sensitive and highly classified documents Tuesday, saying they were "somewhere in the web."

"Well, they were somewhere…in the web and where exactly and who had access at that point, we don't know. We simply don't know at this point," Austin said.

Fox News learned earlier Tuesday through conversations with a variety of American defense and intelligence officials that as many as 53 documents were posted online, which were dated between Feb. 23 and March 1.

The documents, officials told Fox News, may have come from outside the Pentagon.

Austin hasn’t got a clue what’s going on. He’s hung up on social engineering and hunting down white people in his military. It sounds like this is going to be pinned on Mar-A-Lago.

“It sounds like this is going to be pinned on Mar-A-Lago.”

___________

Since they “were dated between Feb. 23 and March 1.” I doubt they could connect it to Mar-A-Lago.

From History-Computer.com

The deep web makes up between 90% and 95% of the internet and has many similarities to both the surface web and the dark web. Neither the deep web nor the dark web are indexed by search engines. The dark web is entirely unregulated by any entity. Feb 21, 2023

From CSonline
The dark web is a subset of the deep web that is intentionally hidden, requiring a specific browser—Tor—to access.... No one really knows the size of the dark web, but most estimates put it at around 5% of the total internet.

Sure it is. It true. More true than the woke and anti-white crap Austin throws around. He eff’n deserves that and more.
