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.”

We don't know anything except what we have been told by the NYTs and the government, both having no credibility. The government and seized all the evidence, so doubtful we will ever see anything beyond their spiel. Tucker Carlson seemed to think the 21 year old did nothing but reveal the truth. What we have seen is definitely more true about Ukraine and Russia than anything we have seen from the media or this government. There is a lot more to this than we have been told. There has been suggestions that the Deep State planted the data to get their law passed to monitor everything we do. That is very credible.

If we so quickly arrest a man who took classified docs, why isn't Joe Biden in jail as well?

I disagree with this woman on both issues. I support Ukraine and do not support any leaker of classified info.

No matter how you slice this he is a traitor if evidence in court with a jury of his peers finds him guilty. Color race religion has nothing to do with it. It is one’s actions that is being judged here .

So let me get this straight…… according to the MSM, Vindman good, Teixeira bad. Both leaked docs regarding Ukraine. One was deified as a patriot, one is deemed the modern-day Rosenberg.
Trump 2024. Civilization hangs in the balance

The Conservative Treehouse poses the leak as originating from the intelligence community itself. The goal? Increase surveillance and censorship over internet and other new outlets not already under Deep State control through passage of the Restrict Act.
Surely our government wouldn't do that would they?
By the way, the war in Ukraine is not what MSM claims it to be.

Despite the significance of the information contained in the documents revealed by Teixeira, he is dead wrong in releasing the classified documents. He is no different than Daniel Ellsberg, Channel Manning, Benedict Arnold. He is a airman holding a security classification that gave him access to the documents. His mission was to keep the documents safe from our enemies, foreign and domestic. He failed that mission, deliberately and on purpose. He is worth of scorn, not praise. His punishment should be the firing squad. Period. No joke.

No one is supporting a leaker. Treat all leakers the same. Did he have Chinese spy driver, did he have a Chinese girlfriend? Did they find the Supreme Court leaker? It appears the court has more narrow circle than this guy? Everyone wants a fair justice system. Ours is very one sided. Compare J6 to the year long riots to the Tennessee insurrection. By the way Biden is unconcerned about this incident!

For the Pentagon to discover that this leaking happened via the lying media, color me skeptic about the whole story. Highly sensitive Pentagon intelligence docs should not be this easy to leak. Maybe it's too much to expect in joe's Amerika though.

We’ve heard reckless pronouncements that Ukraine is going to recapture Crimea. That won’t happen no matter how much military aid Ukraine receives. Russia does not care how many troops they lose. And even if we assume the best case —- a cease fire and that Russia withdraws from all territory except Crimea —- the USA is on the hook for hundreds of $billions in rebuilding costs, as European countries hang on to their wallets like bulldogs.

For a moment, set aside MTG and the leaker. If the contents of what has been leaked (Ukraine is on the ropes AND US forces are actually combatants against Russia) then the US government is LYING to the American public about what’s going on there. Worse still, the media is NOT doing its job in determining the ground truth on what’s happening. Instead the press is acting like dutiful lap dogs of the state and are in fact attacking the leaker.
The press has come a long way from how it reported the Pentagon Papers, which was also true, by the way.

Every time I begin to think this woman has a brain, she disappoints. If the snowflake is antiwar, don't join the dang military, there is no draft. He took an oath to protect the country and keep its secrets, a real Christian would not break a promise like that. Why would they give TS SCI clearance to somebody who is barely qualified to play Dungeons & Dragons? This disaster is on SecDef and that fat general who is more concerned about gender than a safe country. Biden is even worse for attempting to brush this off. If he wanted to insult all of our allies at once, he accomplished that.

Revealing to us that we are being lied to, again, about another stupid war that is only happening to fill Joe's pockets and boost some egos in the SD and DoD is not treason.
It is patriotism.
He took an oath to the constitution, not to Joe's bankers.

Assuming it's the case here: In the clearance process, you read the documents about responsibility. You (presumably) agreed to the Ts & Cs and signed it / them. Regardless of your thoughts / feelings about the content, if classified, you protect. Or you're liable for consequences. Period. There may be many other issues in this case, but that doesn't release you from your responsibilities. Your age doesn't matter.

Actually, his race, religion, gender, etc. DO matter to the Biden Regime and the Dems. Transgender person attacks a Catholic Church in pacific Northwest and the DOJ recommends no prison time, but a Catholic father peacefully prays for women entering an abortion clinic and is attacked by a Leftie and the father is charged. Raid on Mar-a-Lago and aides and attorneys taking their time going through Biden's records and cleaning them up. Etc ad nauseum.

I suspect he was just a patsy and something bigger and more sinister is behind this but that changes nothing regarding his willing role.

And he leaked what exactly? How would an air force reserve 20 year old have access to anything of vital importance? I’m with 8 and Sundance. Our government has lost its moral fiber. Who trusts these sources? NYT/Wapo? None of this passes the smell test. It’s also a look squirrel moment for Biden cartel.

I love the fact that these documents show the Ukraine war for what it is. The money laundering capital of the world needs protection because the elites had easy access. That's all this war is about. The fact that they're losing badly and that they've obviously been sending our munitions elsewhere is on full display. Billions and billions of dollars of ordinance doesn't get used this fast unless they're shooting it into the sky 24 hours a day or selling it and kicking back the profits to the deep state. No more money for Ukraine. Negotiate a peace.

I know so little I probably shouldn't even comment. But a general rule I think is safe to follow is that, if lies/deception/fraud/corruption within our government are being exposed, and if the deep state doesn't like it, then I am predisposed to be in favor of it.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is correct. Listen to what her point is and maybe you'll get it. Look, during Trump's four years in office, sensitive and classified information was leaked to the media. The man couldn't make a freakin phone call without it being leaked to the NY times and the Washington post. Was anybody ever convicted of anything. NO. He was impeached because somebody leaked his conversation with the president of Ukraine. Anybody indicted, NO. This guy leaks information that proves Joe Biden has been lying to us while spending billions of dollars in a losing war. And we have troops on the ground there. DID YOU KNOW THAT. DID BIDEN TELL US THAT. DID CONGRESS KNOW THAT. Ukraine has been turned into a waste land, is that winning? Wake up and open your eyes already.

I am absolutely floored that so many have bought into the government/media narrative on this. Have the past 3 years watching events unfold taught you anything? The regime set this up, used this kid, and will now destroy him.

FTA: “Jake Teixeira is white, male, Christian, and antiwar."
And from his surname, add "Hispanic" to the list, in that the name is Portuguese/Spanish and both those countries are situated on the peninsula called "Hispania" by the Romans. Supposedly, that's how the term was originally developed.

It strains credibility to think this 21 year old Airman First in the National Guard had access to this information. IMO he is NOT the leaker but a conduit. Someone else with access gave this to him with motives we may never know because now that Teixeira is in Federal custody he may never be heard from again.
He is a handy and powerless fall guy.

I too applaud Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene. I think the editors and owners of the NY Times need to go back and review their role in the Pentagon Papers leak. Half a century ago, the New York Times conspired with Daniel Ellsberg to leak and print in their newspaper what was then classified material, portions of the so-called Pentagon Papers. It is worth reading about the Pentagon Papers episode today, because the similarities of what was leaked then and what the young Teixeira leaked today are uncanny. Both documents uncovered massive lies and deception the government made and is making to its citizens regarding the events of the Vietnam War and this Ukranian war. The Nixon administration stopped the Times from publishing more of the material, but in a 6-3 decision the Supreme Court overturned the administration and ultimately the Times published the Pentagon Papers pretty much in its entirety. Oh by the way, the Washington Post was also part of the New York Times' lawsuit. To this day, Ellsberg and the NY Times are considered heroes for exposing government lies and corruption. But alas, those "heroes" took action against the hated Nixon administration.
More than 50 years later, the New York Times is once again conspiring, but this time conspiring with the government to identify and out the young "leaker" of the Biden administration's lies and corruption. Just imagine for one little second, ladies and gentlemen, if Jake Teixeira had exposed secrets of the Trump administration. Today, like Alexander Vindman, he would be the left's latest national treasure and hero. Instead, he will be prosecuted by the Times, the WaPo and of course, our corrupt DOJ, possibly as a traitor and then God knows what will happen to him.
Leaking sensitive government information is wrong. All leakers should be pursued under an equal set of laws, and equal justice system affording them due process but if found guilty, met with swift and appropriate punishment. ALL LEAKERS! But in the United States of America today Jake Texeira's case is just another example of the media's corrupt role in conspiring with, and fostering, our corrupt government's dual systems of justice. Our beloved country is in so much trouble, and with each incident, each political imprisonment, prosecution and persecution, our country dies a little more, each day.

Like evertone, I was cheering on the Ukrainians when the war first broke out. Then, over time, I learned the US wanted this war to weaken Russia. John Meirsheimer predicted this war 7 years ago. It very much is a proxy war with Russia. One that the US provoked.
