Former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson suggested that the leak of nearly 2,000 Social Security numbers of Trump allies by the Jan. 6 Committee was "not an accident."
Carson, whose information was included in the leak, appeared on Fox & Friends First to discuss the circumstances. He revealed that he had not been issued an apology and said he believed that the leak was intentional given the nature of the situation.
"You would have thought that maybe they would have at least had the courtesy to contact the people whose lives have been affected by this," Carson said. "It's been horrible … Obviously, I've put credit freezes on and put credit monitoring things into place. I've already had two incidents of fraud. It affects my family as well. And they say, 'oh, it's just an accident.'"
"Why is that all these accidents tend to be focused in one direction? You know, you have to wonder about that. And I wonder if maybe some of these people suffer some of the consequences. Maybe we should expose their PII," he speculated.
Carson went on to decry the trouble the leak had caused him and the message it would send.
