Re: that guy in the senate hearing room

God I don’t give a flying fuck what two consenting adults do. I don’t care where they do it. God knows they did less harm than the senate does on a regular basis. I’m so tired of our community turning on each other because of some sexual nonsense between, again, consenting adults. It’s bad enough to face christofascists, stop doing their job for them.

Longtime U.S. Senate intel panel staffer indicted for allegedly lying to FBI

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A longtime staffer of the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee was arrested on Thursday on charges of lying to FBI agents investigating the illegal disclosure of classified information, the U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia said.

James Wolfe, who worked for the committee as director of security for about 29 years, allegedly lied to FBI agents in December about his contacts with three reporters, U.S. Attorney Jessie Liu said in a statement.

As director of security, Wolfe, 58, was responsible for safeguarding all classified information in the committee's possession, the statement said.

Wolfe, a Maryland resident, was expected to make his first court appearance on Friday in the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland.

Wolfe could not be contacted for comment.

The FBI was conducting a criminal investigation "into multiple unauthorized disclosures of classified information to one or more members of the news media," according to the indictment.

As part of the investigation into Wolfe, federal law enforcement officials secretly seized a New York Times reporter's phone and email records, the newspaper said.

The reporter, Ali Watkins, had previously had a three-year romantic relationship with Wolfe, who stopped performing work for the Intelligence Committee in December and retired in May, the Times said.
