Not surprisingly, another Trump official has been caught lying to the American people.
Turns out that former Acting Navy Scumbag Modly lied and exaggerated the number of people to whom Crozier sent the email.
Well he was already a proven liar, so this is no surprise.
Only fools swallow the WP's weasel words without closer examination. You left out this part :
But while the attachment circulated widely, Crozier’s email did not.
The leaked content was the attachment. The email was just the cover document, showing original distribution. 3 action addressees, cc to 8 info addees.
Since it was improperly unclassified, the attachment went viral & (not surprisingly) leaked to the media in short order.
Unprofessional & too cute by half.
hmmm, so one of that small handful of gentlemen, all of whom have what level of classified clearance?, should have been expected to 'go viral' with the memo and ultimately leaked to the press...
Probably one of the 7 info addees, ...who could share it with others without fear of disclosing classified intel.
The Navy is investigating the leak, but since it was unclassified & sent to so many, they'ii likely never find out who leaked it.
Crozier didn't even mark it FOUO (For Official Use Only).
It should have been a TOP SECRET, OP IMMEDIATE message, sent [PERSONSAL FOR] :
-- the Strike Group Commander
-- 7th Fleet Commander
-- PAC Fleet Commander
-- CNO
-- Sec of the Navy
