A 21-year-old Massachusetts Air National Guardsman IT specialist has been arrested for allegedly leaking “highly classified” Pentagon documents. The leaker's identity was discovered within hours of the documents appearing online late last week.
Airman Jack Teixeira was arrested Thursday evening without incident at his North Dighton, Massachusetts home.
Jack was stationed at Otis Air National Guard Base on Cape Cod, Massucheutes. He is accused of publicly posting top-secret government documents on the U.S.’s illegal war in Ukraine. Questions remain as to how this E-1 National Guardsman acquired these documents and whether they are truly a product of US INtelligence as they appear to be on the surface, and how they came to be found free-floating on an internet gamers platform.
Teixeria, 21, who entered the courtroom wearing a tan jumpsuit with his hands cuffed in front of him, is charged with the alleged unauthorized removal, retention, and transmission of classified national defense information and removal of classified documents. The charges carry maximum sentences of 10 years and five years in prison, respectively.

The Discord Server
Discord is a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) and instant messaging social platform, AKA a Chat Room. Users have the ability to communicate with voice calls, video calls, text messaging, media, and files in private chats or as part of communities called "servers." The concept of Discord came from Jason Citron, who had founded OpenFeint, a social gaming platform for mobile games. A server is a collection of persistent chat rooms and voice channels which can be accessed via invite links” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discord.
RepiortedlyAirman Texilera was sharing Top Secret U.S. Intelligence documents on the private Discord as he and his friends were discussing and debating the current illegal proxy war between the United States and Russia/China.
How the documents came into Texilera’possession is unclear. He did work in an Air National Guard Intelligence-related billet. However, to date, there is no clear explanation for why these top-secret documents would be available even at that particular facility.
Top Pentagon officials have refused to confirm if the revelations in the documents were, in fact, true or even whether they were actually products of U.S. Intelligence. Or, conversely, if they are fake documents produced by either Ukraine or Russia. To date, U.S. sources have refused to confirm the authenticity of the documents. Independent Journalist Glenn Greenwald and White House Reporter Simon Atebaand Congressman Matt Gaetz are all demanding answers to these questions and more.

The Donbas Girl.
An American and former U.S. Navy NCO named Sarah BilsShe has actively spread disinformation about the war in Ukraine since its start in February 2022.
In reality, the person behind the pro-Kremlin account turned out to be a 37-year-old American woman called Sarah Bils. Bils is a former non-commissioned officer with the US Navy who was recently released from active duty and based in the state of Washington. She raised money for the Russian cause and mocked the death of Ukrainian soldiers on her accounts.
Bils also played a key role in disseminating the recently leaked Pentagon documents, according to the Wall Street Journal.
US Air National Guard technician Jack Teixeira was charged last Friday with taking and transmitting the classified papers – he now faces 15 years in prison.
Sarah Bils, who had top secret security clearances while serving, told the Wall Street Journal she did not help to leak the documents. However, screenshots of the documents were seen on her Telegram account before the arrest of Airman Texiera. Sarah has since locked down her Twitter account and is not talking. Why hasn’t she been arrested as well? There is more than enough probable cause to make a arrest at this point.

The Corrupt Main Stream Media
This is not the first time our government has tried censoring the news released by a media outlet. Officially titled “History of U.S. Decision-Making in Vietnam, 1945–68,” the Pentagon Papers contained valuable information about the 20-year involvement of the United States in the Vietnam War and even earlier in French Indochina in the 1940s. The papers told the true story behind the Pentagon’s illicit war in Vietnam, and it’s unauthorized expansion into neighboring Cambodia and Laos. In 1970-71, the Pentagon Papers were leaked to the press by an author who opposed the Vietnam War, and when journalists at The Washington Post attempted to publish the infamous Pentagon Papers, the Nixon administration sought an injunction to prevent publication. At the same time, Danielle Ellsberg, an analyst for the Secretary of Defense, gave a copy to the Washington Post, which resulted in a second lawsuit. The Supreme Court agreed to hear the case immediately rather than waiting for its October term. Instead, the majority held that the government failed to meet the “heavy burden” of proof required for prior restraints. Ultimately, the Supreme Court announced a 6-3 decision allowing the publication of the Pentagon Papers, first published on June 13, 1971. In this instance, the media stood up to hold the government accountable and ensure the people would know as well.

If it Walks Like a Duck….
Many on social media and in the Independent Journalism community noted the hypocrisy, the stark and disturbing difference in how the media responded to the original Pentagon Papers and how they reacted so-far the release of Papers 2.0 last week.
Major media outlets have confirmed that they have seen the complete files and on the advice from the U.S. Intelligence Services that they will not be reporting on the Papers and seemingly are ignoring the fact that the Papers 2.0 have confirmed that Joe Biden has secretly ordered U.S. Soldiers, Special Forces, and likely CIA to assist in the Ukrainian war effort against Russia actively.
In similar circumstances during the Vietnam war, the New York Times, supported by the Amicus Briefs of dozens of other media outlets, petitioned the Supreme Court to allow the publication of D.O.D. whistler blowers Daniels Elesberg’s documents in the public’s interest in the war in Vietnam.
Shamefully today, instead of protecting Airman Teixeira and Freedom of the Press and the public’s right to know, they are shielding the government’s repression of an illegal war. Just like during the Pentagon Pares 1.0.
Why haven’t the New York Times and others called for Teixeira to be treated as a whistle-blower and fight to release the documents to the public? I think we saw in the Twitter Files (Thank you, Elon Musk)
The media has decided to join hands with the Deep State in D.C. to hide the papers, and the truth from the public eye.
Sadly the Fourth Estate is dead. Consumed by the Swamp.

I Almost Forgot-The Leaked Documents
Reportedly there are 20-25 separate documents discovered on the gamer’s Discord server. Here are the ones I was able to find:
What’s Next?
Only questions at this point remain. If these documents are accurate, the war in Ukraine is unsustainable, and Russia is on the verge of winning. The U.S. Political atmosphere makes it doubtful, in my opinion, that it will continue for more than a few more months. The War is EXTREMELY unpopular in the U.S. regardless of what the media might want to portray to the public. The Campaign season for 2024 will be ramping up this summer, and Democratic candidates are not going to want to face voters and their growing objection to our involvement in the war in Candidate Townhalls and debates across the country.
No one supports World War three.
Or do they?
