Secret Pentagon documents leak suspect 'is gun enthusiast who ran gaming chatroom'
SKY News ^ | April 13, 2023

Posted on 04/13/2023 4:11:50 AM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

The man behind a hugely embarrassing leak of highly classified military documents is believed to be a young gun enthusiast who shared the secrets in a group for gamers.

Known as "OG" in the Discord chatroom, the man allegedly claimed to spend parts of his day inside a secure facility where phones were banned, according to a story published by the Washington Post.

He initially typed up versions of highly secret documents and posted them for the group of about 25 active members from various countries to read, but later switched to posting slews of photos of the documents themselves.

As well as sharing state secrets, OG would also forecast major events before they became headline news, according to another member of the Discord chat interviewed by the Post.

"He's fit. He's strong. He's armed. He's trained. Just about everything you can expect out of some sort of crazy movie," he said.

Agreed

The folks who leaked the Supreme Court decision are from the same crew

Sounds made up to fit a narrative, or a leftist wet dream.

That was the first thing I thought of.

The Supreme Court leak was from a much smaller, known circle. And they haven’t even looked for that person.

Funny how that works.

I’m wary of such reporting. Also, the media often describes someone as a “gun enthusiast” in order to portray the person as a conservative. Such a description also fits a member of Antifa groups. Also, gaming chat rooms are often a source of “misinformation” a term that the media is happy to apply to any information they do not agree with but will totally promote if it fits their world view.

I’ll wait for more information, but I do question why someone of such young age could have access to such documents. Does the military no longer properly vet people who have access to this level of information?

At this point I'm starting to think the "leak" is nothing but a psyop. A latter day Operation Mincemeat.

Leaning towards psyops.

______

I’ve thought that from day one of the “leak” reporting.

Thought I heard this morning that leak was coming from military base. Waiting to hear if they repeat the story.

Definitely got to wonder--with a demented meat puppet at the helm, surrounded by a diverse cabinet of incompetent buffoons, who would believe the leak was intentional deception.

What does being a 'gun enthusiast' have to do with leaking classified?

Saw a report that the documents sat on one server for “months”; then someone moved them and they were detected then.

interesting to note how they had to include he was a “gun enthusiast” in their description.

If the Government knows this much about who leaked the documents and the person is how they describe him, that person would already be arrested and paraded before the media as a giant “I told you so” moment.
