Two US Navy Sailors Arrested For Selling Military Secrets To China

 

FOX News: 2 US sailors hit with charges tied to national security, China 

1 sailor assigned to vessel in San Diego, the other based near Los Angeles 

The U.S. Department of Justice arrested two U.S. Navy sailors on national security charges relating to China on Thursday. 

It is unclear whether the two cases are connected in any way. The first sailor, a 22-year-old assigned to a vessel in San Diego, was arrested on an espionage charge relating to a conspiracy to share intelligence with a Chinese official. 

The second sailor, based near Los Angeles, is charged with conspiracy and receipt of a bribe from a Chinese official. DOJ officials have not identified either U.S. sailor by name. 

A DOJ spokesman detailed the charges against each of the members, however.

There are bound to be hundreds more just like those in the military. Same for intelligence bureaucracy.

married a chinese national. recruiter told me I would never get a clearance higher than secret. i told him i was good with that. first day in the service and my roommate is a person from California, who had emigrated from china 10 years before. can't make this shit up.

There is the term "alleged", which we are suppose to use. I am sure they are guilty. In the guilty column I put most Democrats as well. They weaken the country. When the country looks like a loser and you are discriminated against because you are White, Asian, or a
"White-Hispanic", you are not exactly encouraging people to stay loyal.

If my roommate was typical, then these two would rather have a white collar job out of college instead of the Navy. As soon as my roommate got a call that he got an engineering job, he quit the service inside of a week. So why these two spies in the military? were they discriminated by good fcking liberalas at college and during job fairs?

I would bet they were.

Interesting 🤔. I spent seven years in the US Army but I would never fight for that country again. I live in Canada and would gladly fight against it as long as Trudeau is in office. The west is very rotten indeed.

Freshmen compare notes. Weird, I know. They will compare college entrance tests, HS GPAs, HS class rank, and college class rank.

It does not take them very long to figure out that Democrats are screwing them or people that look like them.

up yours, twat. Have your served? I am a Dem and yes I served as has my son. Your condemnation is fucked up and so too you.

"Have your served?"

Desert Storm and after 9/11. So 2 wars and 2 war zones.

Does the maven of smart (3:08) know what twat means or its derivation? There is a town named Twat in Scotland. There are people whose last name means twat. The surname in question would be Thwaite.

"The name is usually from Old Norse thveit (also written þveit), but sometimes from Old Danish thwēt, both meaning "clearing" or "meadow""

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thwaite_(placename_element)

"https://www.dictionary.com/browse/twat

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twat

I know the usual meaning of the word. You would think that person with as much purported education as 3:08 that they could be a bit more clever in their name calling.

The paucity of their name calling could lead a person to believe that 3:08 got their degree out of a Crackerjack box.
