BREAKING: Jack Teixeira, the Massachusetts Air National Guardsman who prosecutors said "perpetrated one of the most significant and consequential violations of the Espionage Act in American history," was sentenced to 15 years in prison on Tuesday.

The prison sentence will be followed by three years of supervised release.

Judge Indira Talwani issued the sentence on Tuesday in Boston federal court.

Teixeira pleaded guilty in March to six counts of willfully retaining and transmitting national defense information.

Prosecutors had asked the judge to impose the maximum prison sentence of 200 months -- more than 16 years -- in prison.

🤣🤣According to The Daily Beast, Michael Fonone is allegedly hiding at home, afraid Trump will soon mobilize the police.

“I’ll die right here on my f—ing house,” Michael Fanone, the retired police officer who was attacked during the January 6 insurrection and subsequently became a vocal critic of Trump, told The Washington Post. “I’m not going to be in some ‘Apprentice’ f—ing military tribunal.”

Fanone, who is holed up at his Virginia home, was alluding to Ivan Raiklin, a Trump surrogate and retired Army Reserve lieutenant colonel who has touted himself as Trump’s “future secretary of retribution.”

Raw Story reported in July that Raiklin had drafted a list of 350 people he wants arrested.

Fanone’s paranoia is also understandable: his mother was swatted earlier this year after he called Trump an “authoritarian.” She opened the door one night to a fully armed law enforcement team after someone falsely reported an active shooter at her address.

NBC News interviewed 10 other people who have crossed Trump, including former officials in his first administration, and they expressed varying degrees of alarm from a foreboding sense of dread to outright terror.
