🧵 Former CIA officer here. If I took classified intelligence - let alone Top Secret, Sensitive Compartmented Information about nuclear weapons - I would expect a visit from federal law enforcement. That’s the FBI’s job, to protect our national security. /1
We don’t know if the Top Secret nuclear weapons info was about the US arsenal or a foreign government - but this represents an enormous breach of our national security and if the latter, could compromise intelligence sources and methods and possibly lead to death of our spies./2
We don’t yet know why Trump took these Top Secret documents and refused to return them. But a question every American should be asking - after Trump’s actions on #Jan6 to retain power, how confident are you that he would not sell out our national security to benefit himself? /3
When asked just this morning about the news of the compromise of classified information related to our national security, Elise Stefanik stated “we don’t know the facts” yet continued her unfounded and dangerous attacks against law enforcement. /4
I’m calling on @EliseStefanik, House GOP messaging Chief and House Intel Committee member, to issue an immediate apology for her continued attacks against law enforcement and allowing threats of violence against the DOJ & FBI. /5
I am also calling on @EliseStefanik to publicly call for former President Trump to comply with federal law enforcement investigating this clear and grave threat to our national security. /6
Stefanik’s irresponsible rush to judgment, her dangerous attacks against law enforcement, and her continued defense of former President Trump despite evidence of serious crimes against America that threaten our national security - make her unfit for the office she holds. #NY21 /7
