    Washington Post (Moderate Left) • Factual Grade 72% • 4 min read

    Authorities say Jonathan Toebbe, who has a top-secret clearance, “has passed, and continues to pass, Restricted Data as defined by the Atomic Energy Act . . . to a foreign government . . . with the witting assistance of his spouse, Diana Toebbe."
    ...
    The information Toebbe turned over included details of the design, operations and performance of Virginia-class nuclear submarine reactors, according to court papers. Virginia-class subs carry cruise missiles and incorporate “the latest in stealth, intelligence-gathering, and weapons system technology." Each costs about $3 billion to build.
    ...
    The undercover FBI agent persuaded Toebbe to conduct a “dead drop” of information in late June in West Virginia’s Jefferson County after Toebbe received about $10,000 worth of cryptocurrency, according to the charging papers. The FBI later recovered the package and found a 16-gigabyte data card, [which] “was wrapped in plastic and placed between two slices of bread on a half of a peanut butter sandwich.”

Context: Proposal in Democrats infrastructure bill is for banks to report any transactions is accounts with $600+.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

No - What is the intended benefit of this information? Will the IRS need to create new positions or will they be able to manage this information with current staffing? With the small amounts in question, this seems to be targeted at lower-income individuals and families, why is that? Without answers to these questions, and others I probably haven't thought of, the government doesn't need to increase it's data collection and monitoring.


Yes - If they set sunset provisions, this is a way to start the process of findin...



Unsure - I have no idea what the dollar amount should be. Maybe $600 is too low. But I just can't understand why so m...
