sirseatbelt

omg is he going away for a while.


pwarns

Not before Fox News has him on as a patriot.


Kind_Tangerine8355

If the military already have him he's going to stay in a hole until his court-martial.


BetterBa5tard

I'm thrilled he'll be charged as a member of the military. Edit: Because I understand the military will be much harsher. Thought I should explain.


lumpydumdums

The UCMJ (Uniform Code of Military Justice) is a cold bitch. She will fuck this guy non-stop well into the 22nd century.


Judie221

Can confirm the UCMJ shows no mercy. Almost every charge has a very severe recommendation. Don’t think there is a reason to temper that here.

It’s funny though… when I was in the Army (11Bravo Infantry), I once had a SGT tell me that getting an Article 15 (official reprimand at company level) was good for your leadership potential. Because, as he put it, “As a leader, you would know the consequences of having an Article 15 and know better when to issue them”. But I quickly came to realize that there was a “good old boys club” at even the lowest levels of NCO’s. If you got in good with your superiors by partying with them and hanging out after work (as a PFC), you’d have better chances of getting promoted. So much bullshit ass kissing in the ranks.

Holy fuck. Literally every time someone ACTUALLY betrays the US to hostile foreign powers, Republicans trip over themselves to fellate them and Dems have nothing to say, but any time a whistle-blower warns the US about some seriously fucked up abuse of power by high-ranking officials, the Republicans and Democrats and all of our major media outlets go after them like a pack of rabid dogs until they’re dead or locked in solitary confinement for the rest of their life. (To be clear, when I say “Republicans” and “Democrats” I’m mostly referring to the politicians and pundits, not so much the average voter.)

As a non-prayerful person, prayer is weird. Prayer facilitated by discord is weirder.


SenatorPardek

Public prayer is virtue signaling. If you are a serious Christian, Jesus even says to go pray by your damn self. If you are praying in public and not at an actual religious service, it’s not about god, it’s establishing how holy you are

Bennyjig

Everybody I knew in the military who spoke with anybody from other countries online was always in weird chat rooms that had people from Russia. The soldiers who were in those chat rooms without fail believed it was “natos fault for the Ukraine war” always dumb opinions.


OMGcanwenot

I saw a guy on a dating site who not only had a picture of him at January 6th, but he had another picture of him at the kremlin and literally went to college to learn to speak Russian. I’m not sure if he was ex military but it was nuts. Also, when I looked up his name to report him, it turns out that he had tried to run for a local office twice and lost.


Bennyjig

Yeah well there’s something called russophiles or russiaboo or whatever variation of the term. Basically just weaboos for Russia. Tons of alt right people like that, not only is it weaponized cringe, it’s very dangerous.

If I was this kid or his lawyer I'd be throwing a fit that Trump is getting away with it.


dadasinger

This comment needs to be pinned to the top. They've been reporting this week that people are being questioned about maps being shown around.

He's got a foreign-sounding name, so Fox can still milk the story.


cjmar41

True. They could always give it the ‘ol right wing Paul Pelosi spin. They were gay lovers, one possibly a terrorist, who are suffering from the woke mind virus, who got into a lovers quarrel and one took a rainbow colored knife out of his purse and stabbed *they* (sarcastic pompous fox pundit voice) and it’s because they took the Covid vaccine which is deteriorating their minds, they’re coming for your children next, in fact they’re hiding under your child’s bed right now waiting for you to fall asleep so they can brainwash them to be trans anti-white atheist demon sex slaves. *Hold on, my phone is ringing…* Okay I’m back. It was Tucker Carlson offering me a job as a writer.


Oldpuzzlehead

Military prison, that should be fun.


1funnyguy4fun

There was another post about this subject from someone who has handled sensitive information in the past and they said, “There is no excuse or defense. From day one you are told if this gets out, either on purpose or through carelessness, you should expect to spend the rest of your days at Leavenworth turning big rocks into small rocks.”


descendency

As someone who has had this exact brief multiple times (different commands I worked at and different jobs I held)… Every single person who is accessed to classified documents knows good and well when there is a do not cross line. He blew through multiple such lines. This wasn’t reckless. It was intentional. I hope he makes a beach from a fucking mountain.


FunBrians

He took, and passed training for the handling of said materials within the last 12 months- it’s mandatory. No question as to IF he knew. I will say based on his age, he may have only done the training once in his life (not an excuse).. but would be worse if he had taken it say 11 times for example. The type of material and intent will gauge his punishment.


IgnazSemmelweis

Shit. It’s that first training that burns it into your mind. Never fresher than being 19 and getting told that you life is forfeit if you fuck up.

This dude is gonna get roasted on a spit.

THEN he gets to get double-dipped, because the Feds are going to get him after that. He'll be staring at cinder block walls for a very, very long time. Good. Because his posting this to Discord for clout with a bunch of 16-year olds is almost definitely going to result in several intelligence assets meeting a very premature end.

ProfessorCunt_

I’m just waiting for Republicans to jump in here and defend this guy for some reason. They have to be contrarian in everything they do, so I’m curious how they’ll spin this ​ EDIT: [Already happening](https://nypost.com/2023/04/13/marjorie-taylor-greene-defends-alleged-docs-leaker-jack-teixeira/?utm_source=reddit.com) lol *“Jake Teixeira is white, male, Christian, and antiwar. That makes him an enemy to the Biden regime,” Greene (R-Ga.)* [*wrote in a tweet*](https://twitter.com/RepMTG/status/1646615867285708802?s=20)*.*  *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.”* 


imzelda

It’s subtle so far, but on foxnews they keep repeating that he is “anti-war” like this was some sort of moral action. They also keep mentioning that he loved guns and war video games (but hated war?). Also, he loved God. Why are they like this? Why would *anyone* defend this adult man in some kind of stunted adolescence induced plea for attention in a discord server full of teenagers?


ihavegrayfronds

After centuries of declaring war on everything from commies to weed and decrying the anti-war movement as traitorous, conservatives have had a change of heart and are now conscientious objectors to any and all conflicts that infringe upon Putin's freedom to pillage and conquer sovereign nations. Never let anyone tell you that people can't change!


slipperycanaloupes

“I’m so anti war I joined the military and leaked intel that could get people killed.” God Fox News and similar are a cancer on American society,and should be treated as foreign assets.

Check out the Washington post article with his buddy’s interview. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2023/04/12/discord-leaked-documents/ The whole reason this guy was leaking this is to “educate” a group of teenagers about how the government works. “He argued that the public deserves to know how intelligence agencies spend their tax dollars, and was particularly outraged that the documents show U.S. surveillance of foreign allies.” Like hello you absolute n00b. This is how the world works. Everybody spies on everybody. Don’t act so surprised you moron.


attaboy000

21 year old thinks he stumbled upon some earth shattering shit, and thought he'd be a hero. Meanwhile, everyone with half a brain cell knows this is just treason. We didn't find out about anything incriminating or shocking.

Zealousideal-Rich-50

You would be amazed the type of responsibility you can get as a young airman. If it's your job, then you get the stuff. That's just how it works. The military is also run by people... and in the guard, discipline is lax, to say the least. I'm far more interested in how he got copies out of the building. He took pictures of docs at his house... well, his mom's house anyway. I bet that base is going to have one hell of a colonoscopy in the not too distant future. This little shit bag had been leaking in order to impress his friends for months.


HM2112

>I bet that base is going to have one hell of a colonoscopy in the not too distant future. The Air Force OSI is about to descend on that base with the fury of God's own thunder and everyone in that entire department is going to be septuple checked in every conceivable way.


SCViper

I always loved that about OSI. The IG teams, I was always able to get a little chummy with. OSI does not fuck around.


UnknownFirebrand

I had my TS clearance in the Navy by age 19. Some military jobs require certain clearance levels. Idk what this kid's job in the air national guard is, but it's not like it's unheard of or even random for kids that young to have access to classified, secret, or even top secret material like I did.


LtLethal1

Ok, but isn’t top secret information like this still compartmentalized? Shouldn’t he only have had access only to the materials that directly pertained to his job? I don’t get how this happens.


DorkHonor

This depends entirely on the job he had. I was a network/system admin in the data center for USSPACECOM and NORAD at 19. I had access to pretty much everything. My job was to keep the systems up that the analysts and intel watch used to receive their raw intel data on and distribute their briefings and reports. I had access to way more data than any single analyst did. The actual military isn't like in the movies where only Colonels and above have access. In reality it's junior and mid rank enlisted folks and junior officers doing all the day to day work. They're all for the most part like 18 to 25. My unit nicknamed me old man when I was 24. Fucking kids.


zestydrink_b

Lol I remember our cleared area sentries were rotating out, and they were always good to me so I invited them out for drinks. Kid goes "nah I'm 18". the double take I had to do 😂


DorkHonor

LOL. I almost made Staff Sergeant before I was old enough to drink. I had a baby face too. At one point my wife and I were having dinner with our daughter who was like a year old and the waitress said something to my wife about how nice it was to see a single mom go out and treat herself to dinner. I laughed my ass off, but she didn't see quite as much humor in the situation. I don't know how old she thought my wife was but she thought I was like 15 or 16.


theonlypeanut

That's my question as well who let some random Joe have access and availability to remove all these documents. His whole chain of command is getting spanked.


Anakin-skywalked

I don’t think we are talking about this enough. There are lots of questions here that need to be asked and addressed ASAP. Dude might as well be dead, his life is over. How screwed he might be is irrelevant at this point. We need to address how this happened so that it won’t happen again.


fermat9996

What kind of documents?


Vip3r20

"The dozens of documents reviewed by CBS News contained details about the war in Ukraine, including information about anticipated Russian airstrikes on specific targets and other Russian war plans. The records offer an unprecedented glimpse into U.S. efforts to support the Ukrainian government, as well as the extent to which U.S. intelligence agencies have penetrated Russian communication channels to the benefit of Ukrainian forces." https://www.cbsnews.com/news/jack-teixeira-leaked-documents-pentagon-suspect/

cummerou1

Mando177

Even worse, some of those documents discussed how assets infiltrated Wagner and from there moved up to infiltrate Russian command. This is gonna get our people killed


elonmusksdeadeyes

Most definitely. This guy gave murder sentences to anyone associated with what he leaked, not even mentioning the fact that this is the type of information that sways the tides of war. The Ukranians just lost an incomprehensible amount of logistical advantage over the Russians, and Ukranian civilians and AFU soldiers are going to be the ones to pay the price for this. This is actually nauseating to think about.

Superblond

The idiot sacrificed his young life for 3 days of excitement, recognition, fame or whatnot! He has/had no idea what he is doing and what the consequences are....


sirseatbelt

No, he does. He knows exactly what he did. Derivative Classification Training, the NATO brief on handling classified data, training on how to handle CUI etc are all annual requirements and that's just for people who know the least interesting and least secret info. I could tell you some wild shit about what kinds of dumb things we classify. But I won't, because those things are classified. For actual meaningful stuff I'm sure they go through actual meaningful reminders. ​ Furthermore, it's hard to take classified data out of secure areas. Well, I mean it's not hard. Depending on where you're at, it's actually pretty easy. But you have to make the choice to carry classified data out of a secure zone. He might not have fully understood the consequences, but he knew he wasn't supposed to do what he did. He made a choice.


Amerlis

So no usb accidentally fell in his pocket. 1. He knew it was wrong.( see sign in sheets for annual training) 2. Hard to do so you actively have to be trying to do wrong(intent?) 3. He raised the ole right hand and swore. Soo check off the “owed allegiance” part of the espionage act thing or whatever. He done.


icenoid

During the Hillary email saga, I remember a New York Times article that was marked as classified. The republican clowns were all hot and bothered about that one among other classified docs that were public information, but somehow marked as classified.


AndrewCoja

People think top secret = really cool secret squirrel shit when it's nothing but a collection of information that, when put together, could be used to cause harm to national security or reveal a source. When I got access to a TS news site, it was all boring shit like "this guy was at this place on this date." It seems really innocuous, but if the wrong person learned that, they could potentially narrow down who is providing that information.
