You've misunderstood the parent. They're saying watch out what happens to anyone in the Journalist's book who did not share classified information.

You seriously think this administration is going to get a list of 1,200 government employees who are (legally) informing reporters of the goings-on and just... Let it go? Those people are about to get punished.

And since we're at the point of an unaccountable, unidentifiable Gestapo going door-to-door and arresting / murdering citizens openly in the streets...

its pretty clear, even from the journalist's quote, that some of the things they informed her about was not done legally (classified information).

Now is overclassification a problem too, yes but that's bureaucracy.

		You are responding to a thread with the exact quotes: > But also note the government is punishing people for legal acts as well. ... > so watch what happens to sources that didn’t do anything illegal. So we, in this thread, are talking about what happens to the majority of her sources that are NOT sharing confidential information or committing any crime.
