— Pentagon Calls It a Crime and a “Betrayal of the Force”



quote:

The far-left Washington Post just did what the legacy media always does when American troops are in harm’s way and a Republican is running the Pentagon.

They published material from a classified Secretary of Defense Orders Book, the document that maps warships, aircraft, weapons systems, and personnel worldwide, and dressed it up as a hit piece on Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.

The Washington Post reported Sunday that several senior military leaders warned War Secretary Pete Hegseth that maintaining a force of more than 50,000 American troops in the Middle East is unsustainable and could weaken the United States’ ability to respond to threats elsewhere.

The newspaper acknowledged that its reporting was based on information contained in the classified Aug. 14 edition of the Secretary of Defense Orders Book, or SDOB.

The classified orders book reportedly details the worldwide availability and allocation of American warships, aircraft, weapons systems, and military personnel. It also contains sensitive assessments submitted by America’s senior commanders.

DataRepublican argued that the commanders’ assessments were not the most alarming part of the story. The real scandal, she said, was that someone apparently handed information from one of the Pentagon’s most sensitive force-allocation documents to the Washington Post.


quote:

As that article explains, the SDOB is classified and lays out the worldwide availability of warships, aircrafts, weapons systems, personnel, along with assessments from senior commanders. That includes which leaders "non-concurred" which you are amplifying.

This is one of the most serious leaks I have ever seen, and you are using this to score partisan points against Hegseth.

You and your miltwitter journalist sphere spent a whole week hammering a DOGE-affiliated analyst for refusing to leak sensitive documents, accusing her of violating "ethics."

Perhaps the ethics were just arbitrary conveniences all along. Perhaps the professional code exists to protect the true raison d'etre that you and the rest of legacy Pentagon press corps exist by:

By your twisted morality, it's fine to handle materials that might very well undermine an active war and publish whatever you'd like from them in order to score political points against Pete Hegseth. Just as long as you "disclose," that makes it fine for WaPo to protect traitors running in our midst.

And in your personal case, "disclosing" apparently doesn't extend to fellowships at CNAS and other engagement heavily funded by the military-industrial complex.

The United States is engaged in active combat operations. WaPo holds material that may very well undermine the safety of Americans in harms way. WaPo took routine discussion of a serious internal force-allocation problem, and elevated that into cheap partisan shots.

The one without ethics here is the entire staff of the Washington Post who did not immediately turn in this traitor as soon as they received the material.

So prosecute them, multiple people are committing serious federal crimes.

They need to face legal consequences not twitter/X warnings.

Sounds like there should be prosecutions.

Too bad we will never know when Data Republican is just being a paid government mouthpiece.

Treason is thrown around on this board like it’s a common or frequent crime. It’s almost never applicable.

I’d suggest this would be as close as it might get if you can establish a leaker is sympathetic to Iran since we’re in military conflict and info was disclosed which could aid Iran.

They don't even have to be sympathetic to Iran. If they gave material aid to the enemy during war it is treason.

The more dead US troops the better as far as the left is concerned. Someone should be executed for this but they'll probably get a book deal instead.

This is obvious to every rational person. Many people are fine with appearing stupid as long as they think it leads to some kind of gotcha. It's one of the worst things about our social media culture.

Putting it on the media and passing it to Iran aren’t the same. You’d have to prove they put it in media as a way to aid Iran.

Hence being sympathetic to Iran.

Leak classified information to the Washington Post? Brave reporter.

Leak classified information to Wikileaks like Julian Assange? Criminal hounded to the ends of the earth.
