      Trump’s statement — that “a lot of people “think Edward Snowden is “not being treated fairly” — is factually indisputable: https://twitter.com/KenDilanianNBC/status/1294243115381989382 …pic.twitter.com/H0d3VlXUF8

      In 2013, Trump agreed with many Democrats that Snowden was a “traitor” to the US and might even deserve execution. Good to see that he’s now open to the view of the ACLU and the New York Times, among others, that Snowden is a heroic whistleblower:https://www.huffpostbrasil.com/entry/donald-trump-edward-snowden-execution_n_3530162 …

      Glenn Greenwald Retweeted Thomas Massie

      That Trump is talking about a pardon for Snowden, & @RepThomasMassie is now explicitly calling for one, should not obscure that this is not a right-wing view. Includes groups as disparate as ACLU, NYT Ed Page, ex-Obama officials & Church Committee staffers https://twitter.com/repthomasmassie/status/1294252331131904002?s=21 …https://twitter.com/RepThomasMassie/status/1294252331131904002 …

      Even @lawfareblog published an article urging a pardon of Snowden by former Obama national security official Timothy Edgar, who signed a letter urging Obama to do it along with Steve Wozniak, Teju Cole and Yale Law Professor Bruce Ackerman:https://www.lawfareblog.com/why-obama-should-pardon-edward-snowden …

      And now conservatives see how easily NSA’s mass surveillance system, and the entire intelligence community apparatus, can be weaponized & abused for improper ends. What Snowden showed the world was crucial for it to know. He’s spent 7 years in exile. He should be pardoned.

          To see how ideologically diverse is the support for Snowden -- it's basically everyone except John Brennan, Jim Comey, James Clapper and Mike Pompeo fans -- see the list here:https://www.standwithsnowden.com/supporters.html

          both parties need to come together to curtail the IC and FBI's powers. but will they do that? I doubt it because they wanna use IC in their favor when its convenient for them

          Yep, there's a lot of things we now know about that we didn't before Snowden. You can question some of his methods but IMO the public benefit of his leaks outweighs any harm.

          You're extremely confused. Snowden didn't "release" any information. He provided it to journalists and news outlets and ask that they make the decisions about should be published. It was the Guardian, NYT, WPost, Der Spiegel and others who decided what was published.

          They are fortifying it right now. Research ‘Clear’ technology and Barr’s assault on it

          Yes I support Snowden but just pardoning him would be a hollow propaganda gesture, Greenwald has been consistently pro Barr meaning he is compromised on his signature issue
