On Feb. 8, the Air Force informed two Republican political candidates, also military veterans, that their information had been improperly leaked to a Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee contractor. That same day, the Department of Veterans Affairs’ chief technology officer met to discuss cybersecurity with his wife, the chairwoman of the DCCC.
“Meet w/Suzan’s technology team (account security)” reads the 3:00 p.m. calendar entry on Veterans Affairs assistant secretary Kurt DelBene’s official calendar, a reference to his wife, Rep. Suzan DelBene (Wash.), chairwoman of the DCCC. The calendar entry, a copy of which was obtained by the Washington Free Beacon, also contains a link to the DCCC’s Zoom account.
Just hours earlier, the Air Force notified the two veterans, Sam Peters and Kevin Dellicker, that a DCCC contractor had duped them into releasing their restricted service records during the 2022 elections.
Both Peters and Dellicker were running for Congress as Republicans when their military records were improperly obtained by a Democratic opposition research group, according to campaign disclosures. The House Weaponization Committee launched an investigation into the breach of military service records in March.

Watchdog groups say the DelBenes’ meeting warrants scrutiny.
“With the possible ethics violations of Biden Administration officials that we and other watchdog groups have uncovered, any initial skepticism about a meeting between a political organization and a high-ranking appointee would be more than justified,” said Protect the Public’s Trust director Michael Chamberlain. “We wish them all the best in protecting themselves from bad actors, such as people who improperly obtain the private military service records of political candidates.”
