As a result of the investigation into leaks aiming to hurt the @realDonaldTrump administration, today the DOJ arrested Senate Intelligence Committee staffer James A. Wolfe for lying about his contacts with @nytimes reporter Ali Watkins. Ali was sleeping with her source for years. 
Think of the implications if major media organizations tacitly approve of reporters sleeping with security and intelligence sources. Wolfe was the Head of Security for this Committee. There’s no way around what a mess this is for @nytimes and the Committee. Disturbing to ponder.
The revelation that Ali was in a relationship with the Head of Security for the SIC makes you wonder about the ethics employed when she became a Pulitzer finalist for @McClatchyDC at 20 yrs. old for reporting on the Intelligence Committee’s torture report. pulitzer.org/finalists/mari…
MAJOR issue going forward: The man indicted, James Wolfe, was responsible for “receiving, maintaining + managing all classified information provided to the SSCI by the Executive Branch of the United States.” What he knows is critical to National Security.
What else has he done?
What else has he done?
James Wolfe worked on the Senate Intelligence Torture report that made Ali Watkins a Pulitzer finalist but who led the committee review? Daniel Jones. What’s he doing today? He’s working with Fusion GPS on their Trump/Russia attack. Was he a source too?
Oh look what a coincidence, Daniel Jones seems to have been big fan of Ali Watkins work for years!
You may be asking yourself what became of Wolfe and Ali Watkins relationship after they were questioned by the FBI? They stopped sleeping together and broke up when she switched beats and publications. Super ethical journalism.
