While it's ok for the SEC def to leak....

The Justice Department on Friday rescinded a Biden-era policy that provided protections to journalists in leak investigations, paving the way for authorities to once again use subpoenas and compel testimony from reporters in probes targeting leakers.

"Federal government employees intentionally leaking sensitive information to the media undermines the ability of the Department of Justice to uphold the rule of law, protect civil rights, and keep America safe. This conduct is illegal and wrong, and it must stop," Attorney General Pam Bondi said in an internal memo issued on Friday and obtained by NPR.

Land of the free?....I think not..

I know leaking can be problematic, but I'd argue that government employees work for us, so that we own the work product.

Trying to suppress whistleblowers or intimidating journalists are not smart moves. If federal departments are as leaky as sieves right now it would be wise to step back and ask why this is so.

@SunshineGirl The only reason the entire tRUMP misadministration is up in arm s about leaks is the rampant crimes, lies, hidden agendas, grifting, bigotry, illicit drug use, scams and other instruments of evil that are the very fingerprints of this collection of incompetent misfits.

This isn’t a Presidential administration; it’s a crime syndicate! 100 days in and the populace is crying for impeachment!
