Well Of Course They're Raiding The Washington Post! Did Jeff Bezos Think They Would Do *Not That*?
https://www.wonkette.com/p/well-of-course-theyre-raiding-theMarcie Jones
On Wednesday, Day 359 of the Donroe Doctrine for Don-minating all that He surveys, the FBI descended on the Virginia home of Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson, seizing her phone, her personal laptop and her work one, and a Garmin watch. And the Post got a subpoena too, though the feds are insisting that the reporter and Post are not the targets.
What flicked the feds' balls? They told Natanson they were investigating one Aurelio Perez-Lugones, a contractor and systems administrator in Maryland with a Top Secret security clearance that they suspect of accessing and taking home military classified intelligence reports that the FBI claimed in an affidavit had been found during a search of his lunchbox and his basement.
This morning the @FBI and partners executed a search warrant of an individual at the Washington Post who was found to allegedly be obtaining and reporting classified, sensitive military information from a government contractor - endangering our warfighters and compromising America's national security. The alleged leaker was arrested this week and is in custody. As this is an ongoing investigation, we will have no further comment.
No further comment, how rich from the guy who keeps risking the DOJ's cases and destroying their reputation because he will not shut up about suspects in custody who aren't, or talking out his ass about suspects who are in custody, or walking all over crime scenes to take pictures for content.
'Member when as an official at the Office of Director of National Intelligence during Trump 1.0, Patel set himself to declassifying politically sensitive documents from the Obama administration to try to show some RUSSIA HOAX and UNMASKING MIKE FLYNN, and then even Ric Grenell was like, those documents don't show that, go fish, dummy.
