Federal contractor arrested for leaking top-secret NSA documents

June 6, 2017

  As you have heard by now a Federal contractor, Reality Winner, has been arrested for leaking top-secret NSA documents related to the Russia hacking scandal. When the news broke last night I hesitated in writing about it because of her name, I thought it might be a fake news story and I did not want to get caught up in it.

  But apparently it is true and here is more:

A 25-year-old Federal contractor was charged Monday with leaking a top secret NSA report — detailing how Russian military hackers targeted US voting systems just days before the election.

The highly classified intelligence document, published Monday by The Intercept, describes how Russia managed to infiltrate America’s voting infrastructure using a spear-phishing email scheme that targeted local government officials and employees.

It claims the calculated cyberattack may have even been more far-reaching and devious than previously thought.

The report is believed to be the most detailed US government account of Russia’s interference to date.

It was allegedly provided to the Intercept by 25-year-old Reality Leigh Winner, of Augusta, who appeared in court Monday after being arrested at her home over the weekend.

She was charged with removing and mailing classified materials to a news outlet, DOJ officials said.

“Releasing classified material without authorization threatens our nation’s security and undermines public faith in government,” Deputy Attorney General Rod J. Rosenstein explained in a statement. “People who are trusted with classified information and pledge to protect it must be held accountable when they violate that obligation.”

Not surprisingly it turns out she is an anti-Trump, Bernie Sanders supporter, climate change warrior, and supporter of the Iran regime.  She also believes being white is a form of terrorism. Obviously she is not handling the election very well…

  Did I mention she was given her security clearance by the Obama regime? I think that goes without saying, the only question is how was somebody with her background allowed a security clearance? But then again, she seems to be right in line with much of the former President’s agenda.

  One down, how many more to go?

    She must not be too bright either. If I was going to risk a long jail sentence, I would have leaked something more damning than what she leaked. Then again, I also know that when properly setup, a database that is certified for government use is capable of logging every person who even views a record.

      Maybe that was the most damaging thing she had and because she was so blinded by rage and disappointment she was not thinking clearly.

    I wonder if they knew she was doing that fed her some info – like a Mickie 😵
    That name still sounds too ‘manufactured’ – but, it would be wise to just arrest anyone Obama hired, just to be on the safe side (maybe one fine day he’ll be in orange).

      I wouldn’t doubt they are feeding quite a bit of info to find the leaks. I think she changed her first name but something is still strange about that.
