Yeah, this is a bad situation either way. Snowden helped kill Americans. But he also has been key in uncovering the Deep State. Ditto Assange.

Snowden should get a pardon and a medal!

If PDJT says it, it is because he has the facts. He is PDJT, not us. His facts come from the actual sources, not what we see. He doesn’t tweet stuff that would make himself or the U.S. look stupid.

I think Snowden is a traitor until President Trump pardons Snowden. I do not have enough information to conclude that he was a patriot. A cursory glance shows me that he is a traitor.

So specifically, what Americans did Snowden kill? Let’s have some names.

Wanna know what really kills Americans? The intelligence agencies weaponized against the historic American republic in favor of globalism/the EU/and Islam. THAT is what has killed Americans.

He exposed a criminal network. He exposed that the intelligence world after 9/11 was turned on it’s head and is now aimed inward rather than outward. And the natural consequence of turning inward is using it to launch regime change and coups here at home, as we saw in 2016. It is the weaponization of information to suppress political opposition.

Snowden is a hero. The only sources and method he exposed were the sources and methods of America’s Stasi.

(FYI, the Stasi was reputed to be the most pervasive domestic spying operation on earth. In it’s 40 year existence, the Stasi collected between 900 million and a billion pages of information. The NSA conservatively collects and stores that in Utah every TWO DAYS...)

This is not to “keep us safe”. It is 100% for domestic political control.

Snowden exposed corruption in our ‘intelligence’ services... little did we know how corrupt they were... Snowden did the country a favor showing us what they were really like...

If Brennan, Clapper, Page, Strzok,and Comey are walking free, so should Snowden.

Grant the pardon to Edward Snowden...

Going to be a lot of D.C. folks calling lawyers it’s full on CYA mode.
