Something is not right. No leaking charge...when he sent photos of the unredacted FISA document?
You are correct it smells
Possibly he rolled over on Warner, because it would have to be someone of that stature to justify him not being charged with the leak. I just can't see him getting a pass just trying to avoid involving that document in any type of discover whatsoever.
Quote:
Wolfe pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his interactions only with Reporter #3.
On Oct. 17, Reporter #3 asked Wolfe, using the encrypted messaging app Signal, to provide a contact information for the person subpoenaed, and Wolfe obliged, according to the indictment. Later that day, that reporter published a story disclosing the subpoena to testify before the committee. After the story published, Wolfe congratulated the reporter, using Signal, stating "Good job!" and "I'm glad you got the scoop," the indictment said.
Here's something else. This sentence and plea is not concerning the document exchange by text, this is another reporter and conversation. The indictment alleges that on March 17, 2017, U.S. intelligence agencies provided a classified document to the Senate Intelligence Committee. As director of security, Wolfe received the document. On that day, the indictment states, Wolfe exchanged 82 text messages with Watkins and that evening had a 28-minute phone call with Reporter #2. Ali Watkins Reporter #2.
This sentence is for Reporter #3 a separate leak about a subpoena on a witness.
Remember that there were 3 counts in this indictment and the 4 players are:
Reporter #1 Manu Raju at CNN
Reporter #2 Ali Watkins at NYT/Buzzfeed
Reporter #3 Marianna Sotomayor NBC
Reporter #4 Brian Ross ABC
Brian Ross was just the Barium leak that outed Wolfe
Never take a hostage you aren't willing to shoot,
Remember, America doesn’t negotiate with terrorists.
