We are looking at safeguards that we can put in place that would prevent any individual in the future from ever being able to do this.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hokanson\u2019s vow was met with skepticism from lawmakers, who pointed out numerous concerning details that have come to light since the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2023\/04\/16\/airman-charged-in-pentagon-intel-leak-regretted-joining-the-military\/\" target=\"_blank\">April arrest of Airman 1st Class Jack Teixeira<\/a> for the unauthorized release of classified defense information. They said if senior commanders aren\u2019t held accountable for their mistakes, more leaks could occur in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis was not a deviation that came out of the blue,\u201d said committee Vice Chairwoman Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine. \u201cIn fact, [Teixeira] had been observed taking notes on classified intelligence materials. \u2026 It appears that this serious breach might have been prevented or stopped much sooner if the airman\u2019s guard unit had taken greater action to restrict his access to classified information.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/flashpoints\/extremism-disinformation\/2023\/05\/19\/alleged-discord-leaker-teixeira-remaining-in-custody-until-trial\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP23104591461067.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Feds holding alleged Discord leaker Jack Teixeira until trial<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">The decision came after prosecutors argued that Teixeira hid violent and racist views revealed in his online social media accounts.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Federal prosecutors have accused Teixeira, 21, of violating the Espionage Act by improperly accessing top-secret military documents using his security clearance as an information technology specialist, then posting excerpts to social media platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The leaks \u2014 which involved details of U.S. intelligence assistance to Ukraine and sensitive information on other allies \u2014 caused an international uproar. Along with unanswered questions regarding Teixeira\u2019s motivations, lawmakers have pressed military leaders for an explanation on why a low-level guardsman would have access to the top-secret information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hokanson noted that Air Force leaders have already initiated an inspector general investigation into those issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThat is just about complete and we look forward to the results soon,\u201d he said. \u201cAny and all recommendations they make will obviously be implemented immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/news\/your-military\/2023\/04\/16\/airman-charged-in-pentagon-intel-leak-regretted-joining-the-military\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP23103742632332.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Airman charged in Pentagon intel leak regretted joining the military<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">Airman 1st Class Jack Teixeira was charged Friday with unauthorized removal and retention of classified and national defense information.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, Hokanson said his office \u201cis looking very closely at the chain of command who was responsible\u201d for overseeing Teixeira\u2019s work. Several senior leaders have been temporarily removed from their commands, pending further review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIf there was negligence on [commanders\u2019] part, it will be addressed immediately,\u201d Hokanson promised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Court documents have indicated that the young airman was confronted multiple times for accessing systems outside the scope of his work, but no formal punishment or restrictions were put in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Committee members said they\u2019ll push for more reforms after the military\u2019s investigations conclude. Sen. Jon Tester, D-Mont. and chairman of the committee\u2019s defense panel, said the entire scandal puts the National Guard in a negative light and could jeopardize public faith in the force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Teixeira could face up to 15 years in prison if found guilty, but federal officials have indicated they may file additional charges against the guardsmen in coming months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gen.
