Jack Teixeira is making his first appearance in federal court Friday following his arrest in connection with the trove of leaked classified Pentagon documents posted on social media

Teixeira entered the courtroom wearing a tan shirt and pants from the detention center, as well as hiking boots. He entered the courtroom in shackles, though his hands were uncuffed before he sat down at the defense table. Nadine Pellegrini, the chief of the National Security Unit for the District of Massachusetts US Attorney’s Office, is sitting at the prosecutors’ table. The Boston courtroom is entirely full, including three people sitting on a bench reserved for family.

Worked in IT in Air National Guard Teixeira was an Airman First Class in the Massachusetts Air National Guard, where he worked as a low-ranking IT official. It’s still not clear how Teixeira had access to the classified material, and whether he was authorized to view the documents in his role as a Cyber Transport Systems journeyman. Several former high school classmates of Teixeira’s told CNN Thursday that he had a fascination with the military, guns and war.

Greene's newest hero.

American democracy and human rights are also false, and the rule of law is only used to punish the poor people.

This is a hero.

jaketapper Is MTGross in Boston to demand her “Patriot” be released?

All should know that the school system that this man went to has school committee members that are openly racist, anti-Semitic,and homophobic. The MAGA evil has even poisoned parts of liberal Dem. Massachusetts. The hatred is everywhere-scary indeed!

HiddenSecretsInQuran The only one who can erase all our sins is Allah Kabir who is the creator of the whole world. Allah Kabir

This kid was set up, framed..as fake as jan.6th CAPITOL Hoax

He a KID who made a stupid mistake stop being so DRAMATIC!!!

You ever notice evil people look a certain way. The worldly love em you could say.

Government lies, but the person who exposed the lies is criminal 🤷‍♀️ how does this works?

We know what America does to traitors

So you’ve been lying for the Biden administration huh?

A good man who has helped the world

He plays video games his a dem that found out the truth that there lying too you

If trump was in charge he would make him a national hero like that murderer teenager he praised

Found him quicker than Epstein's clients that they have a list of.

Send $1 to $Quejamhar please, anything will help!

The problem is the U.S. government, not the American people. The U.S. government has been monitoring its own country and other countries for a long time, and has seriously violated human rights.

It is important to remember that while the U.S. government monitors everyone, it does not interfere in domestic affairs or influence election results. Let's focus on finding the culprit responsible for these leaks.

Hero

I don't think it's news to anyone that countries spy on each other. RussiaIsATerroristState RuWarCrimes

Fall guy

I wish we treated traitors in America like the Russians do.

Finally, someone is being held accountable for criminal acts! Very un-democrat!

Sus

If this was the trump administration, he would be a hero to you guys. Fact Check that.

It’s a false flag to cram The Restrict Act down our throats. Don’t fall for it.

Does he get a Beer endorsement !

Why is Vinman a hero… and this guy isn’t ?

Are you the least bit interested in what the documents said about what’s going on in Ukraine? Of course not you are CNN State Propaganda.

Scum tRump supporter

Your frontal cortex isn't fully developed until age 26. You can't rent a car until that age. Maybe it could also be a qualification for access to the country's most sensitive secrets.

What's did he leak CNN common tell us.. . Smh propaganda nonsense

Are any pentagon officials joining him or is illegal, direct conflict with Russia not as bad as being snitched on for it?

You mean the treasonous war that this young man exposed

What a real hero looks like.

Had clearance to Top Secret documents since he was 19? Most people don't trust 19 year olds to bring their washing down - what were you thinking?!!

What is he in middle school?

The exact extent of the damage caused by the leak remains unknown. RussiaUkraineWar

Hero!! Exposing the lies and corruption. He's a patriot! At the same time exposing the NYT and WP as extensions of our government.

Little shit

How did this young man get those kind of classified info/ doc. from pentagon to share it on social media and handle it to the enemies There are other highly trained traitors behind this young man!!!!

Because of this boy, many Ukrainians will die. Russians are cheering.

Can't wait for the self loathing Americans to elevate him into a hero.

Escape goat for the worse admin ever

Yes, crucify a young person to shift the blame for the mess in your system from the persons responsible. Bravo! Meanwhile, crooks like Rumsfeld, Bush and Cheney responsible for torture and genocide in Iraq run free.

How is it possible that he had access to all that classified information?

Hero.

At 21 years old, he’ll be lucky if he even sees freedom at age 50. I’m glad and hope they make an example out of him to make these fake “patriots” think twice about their impulsivities.

A national hero for exposing the corruption of this sick government.

有罪的是美国政客,而不是他

radicalized & Weaponized in the USA.

OMG, he put so many people at risk. He is going to get the book thrown at him. yikes... his goose is cooked.

Dig up some weak shit on him too, so you destroy his life completely. Suggest he did it for evil reasons, so your left listeners can stop paying attention to the underhandedness of your great leader. Maybe you can make some money if people pay attention!

Will retention of classified documents. Wonder of Trump can be charged with that...

He looks like he plays Atari 7800

Now that he has exposed the wrong person, he will be in prison for a very long time. If it were another president, he would be considered a hero. Just my opinion.

oh oh, did we find out that Ukraine isn't winning, cannot win and we have been lied to again ?

He should have just kept the documents in his garage

If he was the president son ..he could sell paintings to china for hundred thousand dollars

How did a 21 year old guardsmen have access to the documents?

And nobody is bothered by US boots being involved in Ukraine? Y’all wild

With his training, he knew what he was doing was wrong. That is why he told the other in the group to only talk about the documents in that chat room. One decided to not listen and put them in another game chat room. The kid knew then he was in big trouble.

He should change his pronouns!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Vietnam 2.0 Our government is a bunch of corrupt lying piles of garbage

Biden should be impeached for this! Lying to us and sending troops. We are so lucky WW hasn't started because of this!

Another Snowden betrayed by the American people

Im not a fan of white supremacists, but if this pasty b1tch has dirt on ANY politician, it needs to be exposed.

Reality Winner got 35 years for 1 document. This IDIOT posted all the documents on his Discord account. He’s going to jail for the rest of his life.

Interesting how quickly the wheels of justice move when it benefits Democrats

Lock him up for 10 years minimum. There’s got to be serious consequences for this abuse of access. Need to ensure the next idiot with this access doesn’t do the same. While we’re at it, fire the people responsible for giving this guy high level access.

Many people are having laugh out of him. Very few will ever dare to act righteously as him. Action defines as a person, and this kid deserves highest praise and nothing else.

Hero

By the way, and more importantly, is it the real criminal here the US politicians and war machine for lying to us about ukraine? That's the big story, let's talk about that instead

MAGA hero Jack Teixeira is a traitor to 🇺🇸 that leaked classified information for the sole purpose of impressing 14 yr old Discord bro’s, which is honestly weird as well but MAGA loves pedos! Vindman Espionage Trump

He uncovered that Austin lied to Congress(felony) and Biden committed acts of war without congressional approval(impeachable offense) so who's the real criminal?

Wow that was quick. Arrested the court. Too bad the NY Times and Washington Post didn't help the Feds find the SCOTUS leaker. OH that's right you guys only report what the Feds tell you too. Good thing Obummer got rid of the Propaganda law for y'all in '16 huh.

They found him quickly, unlike the manifest from the Trans-shooter in Nashville

He’ll do his time. One day the media will report the content? Odd how they can pick this kid up in record time, but we still don’t know: Supreme Court leaker, who placed pipe bombs DNC/RNC headquarters, & who leaked sealed documents re: Trump’s indictment to the press…

It seems really strange that this person would have access to this sort of classified information that would never be something to come across his desk.

Gov serves the people, how is it allowable to keep secrets from the public. This security state why in are in the current mess, can't hold gov accountable without complete transparency

Silly lad! The conspiracy theorists are going to have a field day with this.

he seems too young to be a double agent, was money the reason?

He's a hero set him free! FUXUKRAINE ITS NOT OUR WAR

Who gave credentials to children?

The real question is how did this guy, the fall guy, have this information?

It looks as if the media is trying to exonerate JackTeixeira b/f his possible conviction by referring to him as a kid, young, & having no intent to do harm….the media & nobody else can clean-up the actions of this very unpatriotic grown man, he was aware, of his crimes

Hope he ends up sharing a cell with Trump!

what's the over/under on his number of pronouns? 7.5?

And now everyone knows we’re in a direct hot war with Russia.

He showed us all how much the government lies

Hero of history

He should get a pardon and the US government should be on trial for the things in those documents

VYundina They better stop selling his merch. ElfOnAShelf

jaketapper will SenRickScott ask for a pardon here too? WhatsUpPolitics RickScottWatch

How could the Biden Administration miss this Yea some defense department we have! WTF

Save this hero ...

How does junior enlisted even access to these documents? Is the intel community laissez-faire with permissions? Doesn't seem like the compartmentalization I've seen in the DoD.

Hero!

Damn, this shit moves quickly!
