The government needs to lie to the public to protect it from themselves. Their first goal is the security of the nation not an informed public. The founding fathers realized that the general public is not smart enough to deal with the truth about some things. The best example is who they have elected over the years. Especially 5 years ago. The general public believed in ufo's, aliens, Bigfoot, lochness monster, and make America great again. It needs to remain treated like a 7 year old. Someday it may grow up.

A paid spy ? An immature air force member with "over his head" responsibilities ? A low lying fruit scapegoat for something even more complicated and covert than we can imagine ?
