That’s the first part of the title of an Epoch Times story as republished at Zerohedge: What We Know About Jack Teixeira, Accused Of Involvement In Classified Documents Leak There’s little enough that’s available, but I’ve extracted two bits. There’s also a link to
Inserting a memory stick into any government computer SHOULD automatically trigger security alerts that would trigger investigations by information security personnel. There are specialty memory sticks that are permitted, but they must be requisitioned with a justification. This is the process that I’m familiar with, and I think it safe to assume that DoD protocols are at least this robust.
I can hear Kamala now "Incompetence of those competent enough to secure the competent data of course showed how incompetent a job they performed and are therefore I have a great deal of incompetence in his supervisors to competently full fill their duties."
Everyone is puzzling about how this low-level, low-skilled airman got his hands on materials from nearly every IC group that should only be accessible to a few people within the DNI. I read yesterday or the day before someone's speculation that he got these documents out of a burn bag that had negligently not been emptied at shift end. To me, this hypothesis fits this otherwise incomprehensible access enigma.
"Far be it from me to underestimate the possibilities of government incompetence. I say that without intending to be snarky. In my previous life I knew many highly competent investigators and administrators, but for this narrative to be true would require a pretty epic level of incompetence—incompetence that would normally be shielded by system wide safeguards rather than personal judgment."
To quote that great sage Buckaroo Banzai, nothing is what it seems, but everything is exactly what it is. There have been multiple leaks, some of them disastrous, that at times have seemed beyond belief. Reality Winner and Ed Snowden being two cases in point. The IC is suffering from the same crisis of competence as the rest of the country. It's called Clown World for a reason.
I've listened to various people argue that this was a setup, the Deep State is sending this message or that narrative, or this can't possibly be real, and playing various forms of 5D chess. My take is that this is exactly what it looks like, an epic level of incompetence. And at the end of the day, the documents themselves are not signal, they're noise. Even if they are real, the information in them could be misleading or inaccurate because look at the sort of people who prepared them.
One of the problems with the IC is that it's too big. Secrecy requires that the number of people in on the secret be kept to a minimum. People like Teixeria are supposed to be weeded out by vetting, and this isn't being done because in part the manpower requirements of the IC exceed the number of qualified people and the number that can be effectively screened.
This seems more like complaining that your car has been stolen, but you parked on the street, left the windows open, with the key fob on the seat, and you’re indignant that a kid succumbed to the opportunity. So we have a leak of a trove of deep secrets about Ukraine, apparently stored in an unlocked file drawer or computer behind unlocked doors, next to an insecure copy machine that doesn’t keep track of who does what on it. And no one is looking, and it is easy to take them home with you to brag about to your friends online (motivation for that?) since no one will ever know or find out. It’s either real, and the incompetence is breathtaking, or it is all an engineered leak, doors left wide open, some truth mixed with lies, with this material left out in plain sight somewhere on the base hoping/expecting it would be pilfered. Who is this kid’s FBI handler? How many in the gaming group are feds? Feels like the plot to build support for this RESTRICT pet project of the SSCI.
Is it possible that he was 'set up' - enticed - by letting docs be available, and counting on his character to pick them up?
A possible reason could be that They wanted the info leaked, so that when things go South in Ukraine - as they certainly will - we (the public) won't be blindsided......
This is what happens when you have an incompetent fraud like Biden and a woke military....

Wow; incompetence is the key word. I realize it's used often with Gov't entities. Especially when it comes to Nord Stream 2.
We truly live in the age of incompetence. Every time I think it can't get worse, or more unbelievable - it does

And the top secret documents posted also included Taiwan, and how unprepared its air force is.
What an amazing coincidence that all the leaked documents favor a certain narrative.

So then - he was just a regular IT network guy.....
That certainly explains how he got hold of TS documents......
