Stupid Treasonous Couple Who Tried to Sell US Submarine Secrets to Brazil Were BLM Supporters and Trump-Haters
2022-03-16
[GP] A disgraced Navy nuclear engineer and his wife are facing a combined 20 years in prison for trying to sell secrets about American nuclear-powered warships approached Brazil before they were caught.
Not France? Good to know.
Jonathan Toebbe and his Trump-hating teacher wife, Diana, were arrested for espionage charges in October. They had a BLM sign in their front yard.

The Gateway Pundit reported last October on the couple that was arrested for selling US secrets to a foreign power.

#7  We need some old style punishment for traitors to prevent others from getting any stupid ideas. I'm thinking we should look to the medieval period for possible solutions/examples.

#6  'Teacher', that figures right down to the ground. Of all the members of the wanna be commisariat I have ever encountered, the women are always the worst and gleefully so.

Not to mention redundant.

#2  From the Daily Mail article linked by Gateway Pundit:

According to officials familiar with the investigation, the Toebbes selected Brazil because they believed the nation was eager to acquire nuclear technology and wealthy enough to afford to buy their secrets, but not hostile towards the U.S.

The couple reportedly believed soliciting secrets to American adversaries - such as Russia or China - was immoral, text messages presented in court revealed.

I can see the BLM/ANTI-FA protests already supporting this pair and raking in donations.

With Biden needing their voter support and some $$ in 2024. Will have the US DOJ let this pair practically walk away with a minor slap on their fanny.
