So the person who leaked US intelligence was a young white conservative gun-enthusiast and male.

A member of his Discord server described him this way: "He's fit. He's strong. He's armed. He's trained. Just about everything you can expect out of some sort of crazy movie”

Guns. God. Putin.

He and others like him get to handle our nations secrets. Think about that

It’s time to call conservatives what they are: domestic terrorists.

@flexghost It was pretty clear from the start that this would be the profile. Having seen it first hand, there is a lottttt of these insider threats because the feds aren't actually looking at white supremacist/nationalist groups when vetting for clearances.

@stephenczetty @flexghost Yeah.... This is my huge gripe with the clearance process now.
There's no reason that should disqualify someone from holding clearance.
But, it wasn't that long ago being gay would disqualify you.
