| Ex-NSA worker is charged with trying to sell top secret material to Russia |
| 2022-09-30 |
| [Daily Mail, where America gets its news] ...in exchange for cryptocurrency and $85,000 This is not the trans Army major and his/her Johns Hopkins doctor wife, but another one, who also thought his personal undercover FBI agent was a real live Russian operative.
Dalke began communication on July 29, 2022 via encrypted email with an individual he believed was associated with the Kremlin, but who was actually an FBI agent. Dalke worked for just one month as an Information Systems Security Designer from June 6 of this year to July 1. In late July, however, he told the undercover FBI agent that he was still in the employ of the US government. Though he was not employed by the NSA during the time he was communicating with the undercover FBI agent, he re-applied to the NSA in August as he was actively attempting to sell US secrets. Allegedly, Dalke reached out to the FBI's online covert employee, who he thought was an agent of Russia, and said he'd 'recently learned that my heritage ties back to your country, which is part of why I have come to you.' He continued his traitorous messages by saying he was reaching out because he has 'questioned our role in damage to the world in the past and by mixture of curiosity for secrets and a desire to cause change.' In order to prove he had access to sensitive information, Dalke sent excerpts of several classified documents to the undercover agent - one at the Secret level and two at the Top Secret level. He also expressed financial need during the communications. Dalke was arrested on September 28 in Denver, Colorado, where he had agreed to meet the FBI agent to hand over classified information. The FBI says Dalke was a volunteer with the Colorado Rangers, a reserve law enforcement agency. In his own resume, Dalke described himself as a lieutenant and commander of the digital crimes unit of the Colorado Rangers, according to CBS. |

| #6 The military experiment with Transbots has come to its inevitable conclusion. Time to scrap it, bury it, and salt the earth afterward. Never, ever again. |

| #5 CBS News: Colonel Ronald M Abramson, agency chief for the Colorado Rangers, confirmed to CBS News Colorado that Dalke had been associated with the Rangers' reserve force, which has a little over 70 reserve officers. Dalke started working with the Rangers in 2019 after passing a full background check and psychological evaluation. "We are enormously disappointed in the allegations but we have to wait for the federal process to run its course," he told CBS News Colorado. He said his agency is learning of this at the same time everyone else is. Dalke is suspended, pending a resolution of the case. Dalke identified himself as a lieutenant of their digital crimes unit but no such unit exists, according to Abramson. He went on to say that Dalke is a sergeant who lead a small team of reserve officers. Dalke was based in Colorado Springs and had done work for Monument Police and Woodland Park Police in the past. |
