Vicious hack job in the mainstream media, backstabbing Democrat military girls.
Working to overturn the presidential election, lawyer Sydney Powell leaned hard on the testimony of a secret witness. But "Spyder" says he is not the "Military Intelligence expert" court papers made him out to be.

>>>Spyder, it turns out, is Joshua Merritt, a 43-year-old information technology consultant in the Dallas area. Merritt confirmed his role as Powell’s secret witness in phone interviews this week with The Washington Post.
>>>Records show that Merritt is an Army veteran and that he enrolled in a training program at the 305th Military Intelligence Battalion, the unit he cites in his declaration. But he never completed the entry-level training course, according to Meredith Mingledorff, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Army Intelligence Center of Excellence, which includes the battalion.
>>>“He kept washing out of courses,” said Mingledorff, citing his education records. “He’s not an intelligence analyst.”
>>>In an interview, Merritt maintained that he graduated from the intelligence training program. But even by his own account, he was only a trainee with the 305th, at Fort Huachuca in Arizona, and for just seven months more than 15 years ago.
>>>His separation papers, which he provided to The Post, make no mention of intelligence training. They show that he spent the bulk of his decade in the Army as a wheeled vehicle mechanic. He deployed to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, where he said he worked in security and route clearance. He held the rank of specialist when he was honorably discharged in 2013, having received several commendations.<<<
Damn. That's pretty good for intelligence work. Actually, about as good as it gets, or would have gotten if the mainstream media hadn't been nosing into Army intelligence through the office girls chit-chat network.
