And then they’d be put in jail

Warner, with Gabbard and Ratcliffe sitting in front of him: "If this was the case of a military officer or an intelligence officer and they had this kind of behavior, they would be fired."

This is a poor reflection on Trump’s judgment in appointing such unqualified people in positions of power not on merit but on personal loyalty.

We are less safe. Our adversaries are salivating at the sheer incompetence and most definitely are taking advantage.

One wonders just how many secrets they have stupidly given away. Then again it wouldn’t surprise if trump has been selling information to the Russians

"Willfully" using a non-government platform for Classified Information IS a Crime.

"Inadvertently" disclosing Classified Information on a non-government platform IS NOT necessarily a Crime.

One Guess as to what This Administration WILL claim?

Being a pessimist, I'm mad because I'm sure these dipshits won't face any serious consequences for this when literally anyone else would be sitting in a prison by now.

Destruction of records!! Leaking of classified material!!! Come-on guys - jail-able offenses all.

And, like @kairyssdal.bsky.social said, thrown in jail.

My son, proud Navy, said, he would be in Fort Leavenworth

As a message editor at CINCPACFLT, I identified a misclassified message (underclassified) regarding a Libyan operation and that was a BFD and it was in no way even close to this magnitude. I am appalled at their attitude like meh,
It’s no big deal. The AF officers understood.

Looking like Witcoff *was in the Kremlin* while participating in this chat.

It's not beyond the absurd to imagine that Trump instructed him to be there and show the live chat to Putin to impress him.

I'd be fired if I peeked at your colonoscopy results and texted them to your mom.

Each of them needs to be asked, “Are you incompetent or are you a traitor? There are only 2 options here.”

Their never-ending hypocrisy will always piss me off.

As little Gabby sits there like a little school girl being scolded, shuffling her papers so it looks like she isn’t paying attention and doesn’t care. B-but her e-mails…..

In my years of gathering and handling classified intelligence, I was always cognizant of 1) my duty to the country and 2) the threat of 10-years in prison and a $100,000 fine.

What was the answer to his question about the devices being collected?

Indeed. Military officers would be court-martialed, dishonorably discharged from the military, and perhaps even imprisoned at Fort Leavenworth or some other military prison.
