The FBI has arrested a former Army employee for leaking classified information.
They caught her because the “journalist” she leaked to published her name with the classified info.
That “journalist” is recent Tucker guest Seth Harp.

Has Seth Harp been charged with anything, he knew he was printing info he wasn't suppose to also. What can be done to the Jewish "journalist" that received inside classified information on the pilot that was still fighting for his life?

All leakers (including those that hide behind a press pass) need to face consequences for their actions.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
