Representative Tim Burchett Responds

Trying to discredit a decorated veteran like David Grusch shows the desperation of the group trying to hide the truth. They will fail.

Representative Jared Moskowitz Responds

In a way this only adds to David’s credibility. Why leak something if this is all made up. You do this because he might be on to something.

    You know, if there wasn’t a coverup, there’s no logical reason why that information was leaked.

      It appears to me that if the intention was to make this issue disappear, this action might have been one of the most counterproductive approaches to take.

      Edit:

      Personally, I believe this might anger and further motivate other potential whistleblowers to come forward, if they indeed exist.

        huh. I actually want to respect The Intercept. I wonder how the article will really frame things. If it’s framed as a way to dismiss him, and not just in passing as part of a larger comprehensive profile on Grusch… that’s quite rude.

        I also don’t understand why struggling with these issues would make someone unfit to be a whistleblower. And why that is assumed to be why it is included in a profile of Grusch. That’s not how things should work.

        And I also recognize it’s not cool to touch on this sort of stuff in a profile on someone if it’s not otherwise public info.

        Something is weird here.

        Edit: The Intercept says

        The records were not confidential, medical, nor leaked. They are publicly available law enforcement records obtained under a routine Virginia FOIA request to the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office and provided by the office’s FOIA coordinator. Copies of The Intercept’s correspondence with the sheriff’s office are being published with this story.

          I think it’s important to note that his PTSD diagnosis and treatment occurred prior to his latest positions, which means even the intelligence community found him fit to perform his job.
