Yes! Reality Winner bravely alerted the press to Russian interference, and for her patriotism, she received the longest sentence, silenced! How is that ok?? How is she not a HEROINE?

I have NOT forgotten about #RealityWinner

Because whistleblowing is the legal way to bring those details to light rather than just leaking sensitive information to the press

Whistleblower protections don't apply to contractors. Reality Winner was a contractor.

interesting, to which add: Retroactive reclassification of unclassified documents or eMails to "secret"

Unfortunately, the "means" she chose was not the legal way to do it. (And didn't the reporter throw her under the bus?) That said, I do think a pardon is warranted in her case.

Not supporting #RealityWinner is the equivalent of not supporting free and fair elections. They locked up the Sybil Ludington of our time. She had the Classification Czar in her favor whereas the doc was *overly* classified. There are no provisions to protect NSA contractor WBs.
