I see you like to deal with non-sequitors.
You can do your best to bend this any way you like.
At the end of the day this guy screwed up big-time.
He is not a national hero. He is a traitor.
He dumped massive amounts of information with no regard for national security, the lives of people working on behalf of the United States overseas, or anything else.
If his motives were altruistic, he could have taken care. It didn’t matter to him.
He didn’t reveal this to a public official, a local state or federal police agency. He didn’t release it to a judge.
He released it to the media. That’s right, the MSM.
Now, what do we know about the MSM around the world?
Yes, this guy is a real hero. /s
