This is a prime illustration of the absurdity of the present political situation, and while the example is from the US, where everything is worse, the principle applies across the West. Thus, Lt. Colonel Alexander Vindman was the force behind Trump's impeachment, and colluded with the "whistleblower" who leaked the contents of the former president's call with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky. That call was about the Biden crime family and was done for national security purposes, but Trump was impeached anyway. Thus, Vindman became a hero of the lamestream Leftoid media.
But this contrasts with alleged Pentagon document leaker Jack Teixeira, a 21-year-old junior enlisted airman with the Massachusetts Air National Guard, who had top secret security clearance that allowed him to access Pentagon secrets regarding the Ukraine war. The media has roasted him, as the documents have a less than glamour US view of the war effort. As the Ukraine war is the big thing now for the elites and chattering class, that act is not to be tolerated, even though the same sources defend Vindman, as “orange man bad.” The only consistency here, is consistently corrupt.
