Cheesecake factory is actually Democratic-leaning so this analysis is wrong thread (1/70)
This line is getting praise on X, but it’s actually elitist garbage written by a speechwriter who clearly hasn’t spent much time in a Cheesecake Factory, which has none of the gaudy Trump aesthetic, and just feels good to say because it represents flyover MAGA “night out.”

The sloppiness here is insane. Call your source right before accessing classified material, they fundraise off publishing it, then group-edit the story in a Google Doc with the source who’s allegedly your romantic partner.

DOJ says Brinksman worked as a CIA contractor. “As alleged, Brinksman reached far outside his own duties to obtain some of our Nation’s most closely held secrets and handed them to a romantic partner he knew intended to publish them,” said DOJ national security chief John Eisenberg. Brinksman is charged under the Espionage Act. The allegations have not been proven. Full DOJ release and affidavit: justice.gov/opa/pr/us-govern…
