Jason Gray, 28, used the online chat platform Discord, where he was active in channels “in support of the Boogaloo Movement” and “dissatisfaction with the United States government,” to share at least one seemingly classified image with seven individuals, Air Force investigators determined in September of 2022.

The big picture: Investigators allege the now-former airman Jason Gray, 28, shared an image that "appeared to be classified" that he "likely obtained" from his access to National Security Agency (NSA) intelligence while he was stationed in Alaska.

Members of the Boogaloo bois, who typically wear Hawaiian shirts and body armor, join other gun rights supporters in Richmond, Virginia, in 2021.

Context: Gray was assigned to the 301st Intelligence Squadron with duty at an NSA facility at Joint Base Elmendorf–Richardson and was "upset and disgruntled" at his move to the base, per the affidavit, which is dated November 2022 and is accompanied by a search warrant.

Details: Investigators say Gray admitted to them that he created a Facebook page for supporters of the Boogaloo movement, which the affidavit notes is a "loosely organized anti-government/anti-authority movement" whose adherents claim to be "planning for, or seek to incite, a second American Civil War or second American Revolution which they call the 'Boogaloo.'"
