Doesn’t seem like a smart move. The last American held in North Korea came home in a coma and died shortly thereafter
I'm guessing he's asking for asylum and offering up some sort of secrets.
Yeah, but he’s a private. He can’t know too much
You'd be surprised what peons in the military actually know. and what he knows is probably more than what they know. (or at least, more confirmation of what they know.)
not saying it wasn't a dumb move on his part. or that he really knows much. He might, but he probably thinks he knows more than he does.
Yup. The recent discord release of top secret documents showed everyone how lax security really is.
Did you see the story about classified info regularly being sent to random people in Mali because they send it to .ml instead of .mil by mistake?
But yeah honestly I doubt it matters what he knows, having him parade Infront of people saying how awfull the west is would play well to the home crowd, they can pretend to have gotten great secrets from him and he'll be given all the luxuries North Korea can spare... A small concrete room and almost enough food to live!
Teixera had a very specific clearance because he had an IT job with access to those files. It’s not common
The last one that made big news.
He was the last person to enter, it is true a couple others were released shortly after
Imagine North Korea being your best option for a place to live.
They were flying him back to Texas, so North Korea is better than Texas. Wow
Least shocking thing about this. Someone needs to leave abbot on a freeway on-ramp.
Yes, 911...i saw Greg Abbott walking down the side of the highway in a diaper...
That one I can believe
Guess who is donating teeth to North Korea? This guy.
The plot thickens.
