Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene defends alleged US intel leaker Jack Teixeira
NY Post ^ | 4/13/23 | Victor Nava

Posted on 04/14/2023 3:14:37 AM PDT by Callahan

Far-right Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on Thursday defended 21-year-old Air National Guardsman Jack Teixeira, the accused leaker of highly sensitive Pentagon intelligence documents, and said he’s being treated by the Biden administration “like a traitor and criminal.”

“Jake Teixeira is white, male, Christian, and antiwar. That makes him an enemy to the Biden regime,” Greene (R-Ga.) wrote in a tweet.

Greene, who is staunchly against the US providing military aid to Ukraine as it attempts to fend off a Russian invasion, has called the Biden administration’s role in the conflict in the former Soviet state “a proxy war with Russia.”

The Georgia Republican on Thursday praised Teixeira for telling “the truth” about President Biden “waging war” in Ukraine, suggesting that the Biden administration is “the real enemy.”

If the government does nothing wrong it has nothing to hide.

What was remarkable about the secret document dump was how unremarkable it was. With exception of some of the spying stuff (the US spies on everyone, especially allies), everything else we knew from open source. Yes, we know Ukraine is short of manpower, artillery ammo, and air defense missiles. Documents used to be classified to keep important information from adversaries, now they're classified to shield normal activities of the government and military from the American public.

The media decides whom are leakers and whom are whistleblowers.

Secondly, you also have to be anti leaking/whistleblowing as well as anti-Biden on sending billions to Ukraine or you are tied to the hip with him, the MIC, neocons, war grifters, ajd for 10 percent going to the Big guy, etc.

There are USCodes for leaking of classified documents. Punishable by jail and fines and loss of job.


Is that you, Hillary? LOL

“Far-right Rep”

Bias in the very first sentence.

Every single democrat member in the house is a far-left zealot but you don’t see the Murdoch Post describe them that way.

The neocon foreign policy imperialists and the globalist finance and business advocates are two sides of the same coin: American elites willing to sacrifice the interests of ordinary American citizens on the altar of global ideologies.

So at least MTG is being consistent.

“Documents used to be classified to keep important information from adversaries, now they’re classified to shield normal activities of the government and military from the American public.”

Worth saying again. It is analogous to the ubiquitous FBI and DA investigations used to lock down information about a person/event with a statement like “That information cannot be released as it is part of an active law enforcement investigation.” And then the whole thing disappears, along with a lot of info that should have been public.

The whole thing is a set-up to finally rid the #JihadJunta of the pesky Bill of Rights…the goons are already working to “clamp down” on Social Media.. pretty soon the only things left will be heavily censored garbage apps like TikTok, Lemon8 and Twitter…sans Musk, of course..

As Mayflower Madam said, when your government is committing treason, then committing treason to expose the government becomes PATRIOTISM!

The NY Post is looking more like The Washington Post lately.

“Leaking”, what is that, anyway? Many things are classified far above the level justified by the context and the content, many times to just avoid embarrassment or possible indictment of certain high officials.

Really high classifications merely means that only the enemy ever finds out.

We don’t even know the salient details behind the Kennedy assassination, now nearly sixty years ago.

The Neocon Murdoch owned post is still shilling for war and comes out against anybody opposing US involvement in yet another war that is not in the national interest of the US.

Because they called her “Far-right”?

You say that like you think there is something wrong with being known as far-right.

Ahhh but the democrats have perfected the ends justify the means way of doing things. Even when they act downright evil...its for the collective good. Like framing Trump, harvesting ballots, fighting Russians or understanding that grade schoolers need puberty blockers.... trust them , they know whats best.

” Guy is a traitor for leaking.”

Is he? I still do not know enough to make a judgement yet.

Unfortunately, FOIA led to over-classification. If I classify it, then I don't have to release the information to a future requestor of information, even though often, there is a public right to know.

“how does she know he is a practicing Christian?”

I’m sure she has access to info that we don’t. She’s very bombastic and mouthy (not that there’s anything wrong with that), but she’s hardly ever wrong.

“How does a 21 year old reservist have access to this level of secure information?”

I heard that he was an official note-taker, or scribe, in classified meetings where these issues were discussed. True? IDK. (DH said it was mentioned on something he watches — Kudlow, maybe.)

Paraphrased? I think you said it better than I did.
