He’s a bilionaire. Even if she’s a spy, he knew, and he gave her critical information, he’s unlikely to be punished meaningfully. Billionaires don’t go to gitmo.

What info did he give her? I've been trying to find this info

Oh yes, I totally get that. The right thing would for him to lose everything for betraying his country and company. This won't happen because wealthy people always get a free pass.

Agree, though it’s not yet clear that he betrayed anyone beyond his family.

When you are running a multi-billion dollar company you are held to much higher standard because of the massive responsibility. Being involved with a spy is a profound dereliction of his duty and shows a criminal level of disregard for his company.

Just being caught betraying his family should be grounds let him go, but this goes much deeper than that. I doubt anything will happen, but letting people in high levels of leadership pull this kind of shit without serious consequences is bonkers in my book.
