Journalists in intelligence leak case IDed as NBC and CNBC reporters

By Ben Feuerherd, NY Post, October 9, 2019:

The Defense Intelligence Agency worker who was arrested Wednesday for leaking classified information was passing secrets to journalists from CNBC and NBC News, a report said Wednesday.

The reporters aren’t named in the indictment against 30-year-old alleged leaker Henry Kyle Frese, but The Wall Street Journal identified them as CNBC reporter Amanda Macias and NBC reporter Courtney Kube.

Court documents in the case include tweets that correspond to messages sent by Kube and Macias, according to the report.

Frese, a counterintelligence analyst from Alexandria, Virginia, who had a Top Secret security clearance, was indicted Tuesday on two counts of willful transmission of national defense information to persons not entitled to receive it.

“Frese was caught red-handed disclosing sensitive national security information for personal gain,” John C. Demers, assistant attorney general for national security, said when announcing the indictment.

Demers cited ex-Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ vow to pursue leakers as the motivation for the probe.

Frese allegedly passed top secret intelligence information regarding a foreign country’s weapons systems to either Kube or Macias, according to prosecutors.

The Defense Intelligence Agency’s subversion surely does not shock anyone outside of the proverbial box. The leaking of classified information by Henry Kyle Frese is the Pentagon counter-terrorism analyst is, in all likelihood, not the first by Frese or others of the Deep-State embedded to invalidate or cause the downfall of the Trump Presidency. The betrayer’s audacious treason has ended by his indictment; there is no doubt he is but one of the copious conspirators working in tandem with the Deep-State under the direction of the Democratic-Subversive Party. The fact that these classified documents were handed over to NBC and CNBC is definitive proof that the Deep-State is no more than an extension of the Democrats and its seditionist mainstream media collaborator.

The smug, self-righteous traitors, the Democrats, or its confederates are not quaking in their high-heeled sneakers. They, to the contrary, perceive themselves as above the law, more so, the Constitution. Those whose task is to expose and indict not merely Frese but others of this subversive pact could likely be a part of this insurrectionist faction. It is troublesome for one to hold confidence in a government’s structure or integrity when it is profusely awash with informers, propagandists.The Democrats, Neo-Liberalism, and the collaborators endorse treason, as they deem treason as meritorious.

Throughout history, treason, in the DNA of human nature, brought down their governments.

In everyday experience we see the same traitorous crooked behavior described in this article. Once living in a secure building, thought to be impervious to burglary, our residents were victimized by a series of burglaries. How could this be? The HOA president apologized and exclaimed, “well, all crooks have to live somewhere”.

Let’s revive “Old Sparky” and give Freese the Julius and Ethel Rosenberg farewell warming party.

When I was in the AF they told us we could be executed for compromising classified information. It might be on the condition that it was in a time of war, I don’t remember exactly but it put the fear of G-d in you. Hillary does it and nothing. We need to get serious about this.

Thank you. Will pass this on. Maybe Trump jumped into the swamp to disrupt and slow down the “root rot” for the sake of his grand kids and hence our nation’s future generations too.
