Not only does this put the WB and anyone presumed to be the WB at risk, it smacks of a deliberate attempt to dissuade other potential WBers or witnesses from coming forward. It feels like intimidation!

and hysterical overstatement. Anyone who didn't think this was going to be a part of news and reporting .. is just plain naive. This is purely sh**-stirring by a person desperate for attention.

(by the way .. the people responsible for our "national security risk" .. are located in the west wing. get your head out!)
