“Department of Homeland Security employees were told to report colleagues they suspected of sharing sensitive internal information, along with those who requested information that fell out of their day-to-day duties, according to an email obtained by BuzzFeed News. Randolph D. ‘Tex’ Alles, a senior DHS official, emailed all employees on Tuesday warning them to be careful handling “all classified, controlled unclassified, and draft information” and that unauthorized disclosures — whether deliberate or inadvertent — risked violating agency policy and potentially federal law.”
“Alles sent the email after ‘sensitive but unclassified’ information had been shared with ‘external entities.’ Alles did not specify that the ‘external entities’ were media outlets, but the Trump administration has repeatedly criticized leaks of internal documents and attempted to crack down on such disclosures” – BuzzFeed News.
