    in 2022, officials said Brannon, of San Juan Capistrano, placed calls to the governments of China and Russia hoping to offer himself as a “mole” providing US intelligence.

    I think this is actually funny. Like what is he going to tell them? About all the pushups he does?

      I think that, in his mind, he’s becoming a hero. He’s going to save the US from itself.

      Dude definitely needed psychological help a long time ago.

      Nah, this is the feds. There is no parole in federal prison. And once he served the 9 years the USMC will get him since he was active duty at the time of the crime.

          In addition there is this bit:

          “According to the government’s sentencing memorandum, in 2022, Brannon placed calls to two foreign adversaries, hoping to offer himself up as a “mole” by providing U.S. intelligence.”

          That will probably come up in his court-martial.
