Throw the book at the bitch.
FBI Director Kash Patel announced the arrest Wednesday of a former employee of the United States Special Operations Command, known as SOCOM, for leaking classified material to a journalist.
The announcement came just 48 hours after President Donald Trump promised that identifying a leaker in another recent case involving the Air Force pilot rescue operation in Iran over Easter weekend would be a top priority.
Patel posted on social media, “FBI and our partners have arrested a former SOCOM employee, who supported our top-level military warfighters, for allegedly transmitting classified information to a member of the media.”
“Let this serve as a message to any would-be leakers: we’re working these cases, and we’re making arrests. This FBI will not tolerate those who seek to betray our country and put Americans in harm’s way,” he added.
In a news release, the DOJ said, “The FBI arrested Courtney Williams, 40, of Wagram, North Carolina, yesterday and a federal grand jury indicted her today in connection with her alleged transmission of classified national defense information to individuals not authorized to receive it, including a journalist.”
The news release said, “As alleged, between 2022 and 2025, Williams repeatedly communicated with the Journalist via telephone and text messages. During this period, Williams and the Journalist had over 10 hours of telephone calls and exchanged more than 180 messages.”
“In one such message, the Journalist identified themselves as a journalist and stated that they sought information about the SMU [Special Military Unit] in support of an upcoming article and book. After these communications with Williams, the Journalist published a book and article that named Williams as a source and attributed specific statements to her. Some of these statements contained classified national defense information. In addition to her disclosures to the Journalist, Williams also made unauthorized disclosures of national defense information via her social media accounts.”
Looks like it was for money and publicity.
This is the journo that received the classified information. The FBI should arrest his ass too.
Disgraced former FBI director and “Russian collusion” hoax conspirator James Comey leaked classified information to a professor that was formerly employed ‘in a special position’ at the FBI, and to the New York Times, when it suited his purpose.
Corruptocrat Adam Schiff directed the collection and leak of classified fake information to subvert the 2017 election.
There’s a lot of that shit going on with politicians, reporters, and people in intelligence agencies who are entrusted with the nation’s secrets, but will betray the country for a political agenda and a price.
It’s time to make them pay a high price for their treason.
