Daily Mail readers were shocked that the US government leaked secret Pentagon files to 21-year-old US Air Force National Guardsman Jack Teixeira.

Many have wondered how anyone in the Air Force National Guard could access maternity equipment.

“Why does someone in the US National Guard Air Force have access to classified documents?”, “The fact that a child has access to files at this level is depressing,” commenters wrote.

Users also pointed to government incompetence at all levels. Everyone takes secret documents home, but only junior employees appear in court.

Moreover, they called the young man a “victim of Jomentia”.
