An anti-Trump FBI agent was arrested and charged for disclosing classified information.
Johnathan Buma allegedly disclosed internal classified documents and text messages to associates.
Court documents revealed that Johnathan Buma had printed 130 files from the FBI’s internal network, with many of the documents marked with warnings that the information is confidential.
Buma shared a draft of a book he was writing about his career in the FBI with colleagues, and it contained sensitive information, the charging documents said.
According to ABC News, the feds nabbed Johnathan Buma just as he was about to hop on an international flight on Monday.
ABC News reported:
An FBI agent who accused the bureau of political bias during President Donald Trump’s first administration was arrested Monday in New York on charges related to the alleged unauthorized disclosure of confidential information, according to court documents filed Tuesday.
Johnathan Buma, a 15-year veteran of the bureau, allegedly shared text messages, internal documents and other classified information with associates, including as part of a prospective book he began writing about his career as an FBI agent.
Beginning in Oct. 2023, Buma “printed approximately 130 files from the FBI’s internal network … some of which were clearly marked with warnings that made clear that the information was to be protected,” according to charging documents.
“Buma also printed nine text-file documents which contained text that had been copied and pasted from reports that were marked in such a way that made clear that the information must be protected,” the charging documents said..
In the ensuing weeks, Buma allegedly shared a draft of a book he had written about his career at the FBI with “associates” over email. The draft allegedly included details about “the FBI’s investigations into a foreign country’s weapons of mass destruction (‘WMDs’) program,” the charging document alleges.
Last year Johnathan Buma told Business Insider that political bias under Trump’s first administration pushed him to become a ‘whistleblower.’
Buma, a 15-year veteran of the FBI who speaks Russian, said that the FBI ignored his so-called leads linking Trump’s personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani to Russian intelligence.
“Rudy Giuliani may have been compromised by individuals suspected of being involved in Russian counterintelligence influence operations,” Johnathan Buma told Business Insider in an interview. “I saw important intelligence information being suppressed.”
He also said the Hunter Biden-Burisma story and the laptop from hell were a part of a disinformation campaign.
Buma was eventually prohibited from investigating anyone connected to President Trump.
