Armed FBI agents have arrested a 21-year-old military reservist believed to be behind the leaking of classified Pentagon briefings, including on the conflict in Ukraine. The government was assisted in its manhunt by the same media organizations that published the contents of the files.
Although the NYT published a number of stories based on the files, it opted not to protect its source and instead outed Teixeira after partnering with “open source intelligence” outfit Bellingcat to identify him.

Interesting, when Ellsberg, leaked the Pentagon Papers to the NYT, the Times went into full legal defense. Now that the Times did not get this story, and they ardently support the war in Ukraine , NYT had no problem assisting the government in exposing and arresting the leaker.

Perhaps the NYT can assist in finding the leaker of the draft opinion of Justice Alito?

NY Times employee.

So if we are not officially at war against Russia, and it turns out the Biden Administration and Pentagon are lying to the American people about the supposed successes of the Ukrainian military, do we have a right to know?

Or would you prefer to be lied to?
