Pete Hegseth, Trump Dept of Defense nominee…

Criminal Penalties:
Failing to properly safeguard or returning classified information can lead to criminal charges.
18 U.S.C. § 1924:
This law specifically addresses the unauthorized removal and retention of classified documents or materials.

But that would apply to those that compromised the docs, not the recipient.
 
So a high level official can send his political enemies to prison by simply shoving a classified document into their faces?

This guy has been "just asking (dumbass) questions" the hell out of this whole thing to distract from what a **** show it was. Now he's trying to turn it around on the journalist who didn't even **** up their plans even though he easily could have (and I have no doubt they would have nailed him to the cross if he had).

"On Thursday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “José Díaz-Balart Reports,” House Armed Services Committee Ranking Member Rep. Adam Smith (D-WA) said that he is calling for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to resign but didn’t call for the defense secretary’s resignation over the withdrawal from Afghanistan because “On Afghanistan, there was an endless array of investigations done by Congress, done by the White House, done by DOD, done by all kind of different agencies. There was a clear acknowledgment of that problem and the need to analyze it.”

Yes I remember now. Biden admin took full responsibility and fell on their sword.

Utter dumbazz
 
lol. So the minute he received the info hes at fault? You can't be serious
The minute he kept quiet about being there and making copies of the convo...say it was classified...he could have been charged...so while he is not entirely at fault he dodge a bullet when the admin tried to cover it own ass and said it was unclassified.....in no way am I blaming him.
 
How can anyone defend these clowns adding a journalist to a group text about battle plans who when called out defend their stupidity by attacking the integrity of the journalist, while saying it didn’t happen and that it wasn’t really a big deal that it happened. WTF?

im not blaming the journalist moron...I saying he is lucky they are claiming it's not classified info...cuz his copies would they be retaining classified info and could catch a charge with only without releasing it...it's written in the law I posted...I'm sorry your not bright enough to follow the concept. Or a huge mistake to add him to the chat...but it also an issue for JG to make copies and not report it...of it was classified..therefore the admin in covering their ass is also helping JG.

'Member when he went after Lloyd Austin? Me neither.
Chevy Tahoe Kelly doesn’t care and neither do any of the liberals here. This is their distraction to shift away from the debacle of their own party. They want it to be a big deal with the “what if” scenarios while they didn’t hold their own party accountable.
 

A government employee in trouble for adding a journalist to a digital exchange of unclassified info, journalist doesnt report it before the events took place, and the operation successfully goes off without anyone being hurt...but gets suspended.

Oh wait it's just a low level person.

"rules for thee but not for me." Heggseth and Waltz.

Hypocrisy thy name is Donald Trump and everyone who defends this mess.

When did liberals worry about low level people?

Did you even read it

“The DHS employee told colleagues she accidentally added a reporter from a conservative Washington-based print publication to an email that included information about upcoming ICE operations in the Denver area. The officials said the information was not classified but considered law enforcement sensitive because it included the time of day for the operation and possible home locations where targets could be identified.”

yes I did read it. sounds almost the same.

That stuff you highlighted doesn't include any of the bs excuses you guys made up for why Hegseth wasn't giving away a "War plan". that information doesn't include their attack vectors, doesn't name the targets names, doesn't say what weapons will be used, doesn't specify that it was a "real" attack and not just an "exercise".

its funny how much you guys will bend over backwards to defend a Trump appointee but won't even consider defending the small guy.

Hmm. Except the whole, time, day and possible locations. Which is not what you saw in the casual text. One actually put officers in direct harms way and the other is a text of times. Nice reach on this one.

Good to know you sympathize with terrorist over American officers.
