He should also Pardon Obama just for giggles
Agree, pardon Snowdon.
I’m inclined to agree. I was conflicted on Snowden initially, but it seems like enemy of our enemy is our friend in this case, and our alphabet agencies have effectively gone rogue and need to get taken down a level. Pardon Assange too.
Both Snowden and Assange
I am in the other camp. Snowden is a traitor who stole classified information and disclosed it publicly. I don’t forgive that, but then I am old and still believe in our country.
Yes! Pardon Snowden and Asssange. Yesterday. It would be great to hear Assange come clean about where he got the emails. He probably will never tell, but maybe a deal could be arranged...
Assange’s crime involved an army intel analyst who was pardoned by Obama. I didn’t agree with that pardon, but it doesn’t make sense that Assange is still pursued while his accomplice has been freed.
The analyst was a US citizen beside violating his security clearance. Assange is not a US citizen.
The left wants him jailed because he exposed the Clinton gang. That, for me, warrants a medal.
What about film maker Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, director of the movie “The Innocence of Muslims”?
His home was raided in the middle of the night by Special Forces. He was led from his home with face hidden under bandage wrappings back in 2013.
He was forced to go into hiding after being blamed by Hilary as ‘the cause’ of the Bengazi Raid.
Does he need some sort of Pardon?
As for Snowden, I don’t see him as a hero. But again, it doesn’t make sense for him to be prosecuted while Brennan and Clapper roam free.
Pardon him. And jail Brennan.
Eric Snowden has two uninterrupted interviews FREE to view on Joe Rogan’s podcast. I have watched them more than once and I highly reccomend them to you fellow freepers (they are on youtube right now and will soon just be available on Spotify as Rogan has scored a BIG deal with them. Initially when this broke in 2013 I was conflicted but as time went on and I heard his version it was obvious that he could have ridden out his life grabbing a check from NSA or CIA for life....he chose to exspose the illegality that was initiated by Dick Cheney lawyer David Atkinson.....what he showed was eventually ruled illegal....yet he is a fugitive....I agree a Pardon is in line.
How did Snowden clear customs/immigration in Hong Kong AFTER the public release?
Why wouldn’t he FIRST travel to final destination prior to public release?
If wanted by the US govt would he be cleared to travel?
Who provided support to escape?
He would not have been able to get out of Hong Kong if CIA wanted him caught. He was an Obama tool all along.
What appeared in the MSN about what Eddie SnowJob’s betrayal had been in public domain for decades. That so man were unaware of what public data NSA collected is on them. There were at least two books and countless lectures.
The author does not believe he could have taken the Crown Jewels of NSA is based on his assumptions. He did, and what’s more he did it at the behest of his Chinese handlers - where he fled before moving on to Russia.
He was well paid for his theft of NSA’s Methods and Means of data collection - collection that keep this country and the world safe. As a bonus Eddie also got Project names, objectives, goals, and personnel files of foreign operatives, most of whom were rounded up and shot.
The German character that wrote this puff piece has the aim of glorifying not just Eddie, but to encourage others to follow in his footsteps.
After due consideration Eddie is in the same class as Aldrich Ames, Robert Hansen, the Rosenbergs, and little Missy Reality Winner. On further reflection Eddie should receive a full pardon of lead.
POTUS should have far more information on Snowden than Federalist.
I agree that Snowden is a hero to the American people and should be pardoned.
I agree with this pardon.
Don’t forget to pardon assange,Stone,Rittenhouse and Bannon.
#FreeAssangeNOW
#PardonSnowden
Waiting for the Russian Agent mantras.
I totally agree.
The Deep State hates Trump, Snowden & Assange.
Pardon Snowden & Assange for publishing about the Deep State’s crimes.
While I’ll give Snowden credit for exposing the NSA under Obama as being crooked, the fact still remains that by giving said information to the Chinese, Russians, and even to Venezuela (not to mention actual Communists such as Assange and that gay Guardian reporter), he committed treason ultimately, which ALSO is against the Constitution. So no, he’s still no hero to me, despite my dislike for Obama, or the deep state. Anyone who aids or abets Communists for ANY reason is an enemy to me. He’s certainly not eligible for pardon, any more than Bill Ayers or Roland Ames were.
If he really cared about exposing crooks that were occupying the highest levels of office, he should have done the same thing that the guys who made that documentary series, the Clinton Chronicles, did by assembling the data into a documentary, giving it to the RNC and those he could trust, and then release it, even if it meant a bullet in his head. At least those guys, one of whom actually DID end up killed in an “accident” arranged by the Clintons afterwards, didn’t sell secrets to China, to Putin (who while technically an ally back then is nevertheless a Communist based on stuff he himself said about Lenin and Christianity as well as certain speeches he made). Besides, did he ever call out Ecuador’s mass surveillance measures? No? And I’m pretty sure being tweeted thanks by the likes of Bill Ayers and even included on his wall of Revolutionary “heroes” (such as Che Guevara or Vladimir Lenin or Karl Marx) doesn’t paint me with the impression that Snowden’s in any way a hero.
Same goes for Assange, who BTW, was exposed around the same time by Lee Strahanan to be a Marxist-Leninist.
Despite the old maxim, the enemy of my enemy is NOT my friend, and just because he helped take down the Clintons DOESN’T make him our friend, nor does Assange.
