Nothing surprising about this. What is remarkable is that anyone was able to distinguish the spies from the Biden regime appointees.
“Iranian Spies Have Infiltrated the American Government, Lawmakers Warn,” by Adam Kredo, Washington Free Beacon, September 27, 2023:
The Iranian government has infiltrated the Biden administration and obtained access to sensitive U.S. government information, according to a coalition of Republican lawmakers who are investigating the matter.
Iran has repeatedly demonstrated in the past several months that it has access “to restricted U.S. State Department emails or government servers,” according to a letter sent Wednesday to the White House by congressional Republicans and obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
The series of leaks, which have appeared in Iranian state-controlled propaganda outlets, “constitute a significant security breach of U.S. government property by a foreign adversary” and could indicate there is a mole inside the Biden administration, according to Reps.

That network, known as the Iran Experts Initiative, allegedly includes senior Pentagon official Ariane Tabatabai, as well as other “influential overseas academics” who reported to Iran’s foreign ministry and helped push Tehran’s talking points with American policymakers. Several of those identified as members of the Iranian government-run network include former aides to U.S. Iran envoy Robert Malley, who was suspended from his post earlier this year for allegedly mishandling classified information.
In August, when news of Malley’s suspension was just becoming public, the Tehran Times, a regime-controlled outlet, published reports containing what appeared to be sensitive U.S. government documents, including a “sensitive but unclassified” internal State Department letter that purportedly outlines why Malley’s security clearance was revoked. Just a month later, the publication published audio of National Security Council coordinator for the Middle East and North Africa Brett McGurk discussing in a private meeting what the lawmakers’ letter described as “national security options towards Iran.”…
