Awesome thread as always
@AshaRangappa_ . Quick correction: Neither Scooty Libby nor Cheslea Manning were pardoned. They had their sentences commuted. -
I missed reading this story a few days ago about
#Hacker who turned in#Manning. Hopefully it remains non-suspicious, but way too young regardless. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/17/obituaries/adrian-lamo-dead.html … -
But Peter, Snowden's situation is quite different from most sources. Most don't turn over 1+ million (I recognize the exact # is publicly unknown) pages of highly classified information. Other than Manning, I know of no other. Ellsberg at least knew what was in Pentagon Papers.

@KrisParonto is an American hero for role in#Benghazi but political parties don't control who files to run on their ballot.@xychelsea could have just as easily filed as Republican. Good citizens of#Maryland, such as myself, will not vote for Manning regardless of party. -
#Manning's statements are absurd. She read 750,000 pages before leaking? SMH Nor shld 19 yr old make these decisions http://www.businessinsider.com/chelsea-manning-really-doesnt-want-to-talk-about-wikileaks-2017-10 … -
I bet if you came to US they would welcome your testimony. I could arrange. Weren't you supposed to come here after Manning's commutation?

Anyone who wants to take narrow position that no harm came from Manning's illegal leaks needs to read this thread

Manning is not a "spy". Prosecuted under Espionage Act for leaking classified information. Very different. Still bad decision by

I do disagree w/characterization of
#Manning as traitor. Legally & factually incorrect. But convicted criminal, yes. Bad@Harvard decisionhttps://twitter.com/CIA/status/908483795413798912 …

Get your facts right. Manning did not receive a pardon. Served (deservedly) more years than any leaker, and was eligible for parole.
-
Spot on article. These perceived ideological leakers, all young, are a real threat. Manning - 19. Winner - 25. Snowden - 29. https://twitter.com/KenDilanianNBC/status/872149573862600705 …

Nice deflection. Too bad you can't have a coherent discussion but this is typical of Manning/Snowden/Assange fans.
-
These were not "revealed" through Manning, & if true, could & should have been revealed lawfully. Would have been simple to do.
-
What "war crimes"? Apache helicopter incident was not a war crime. Red Cross was all over any allegations of mistreatment w/o Manning
-
You're totally accurate. I could have easily helped Manning take that video to appropriate govt authorities

#Manning should continue to acknowledge mistakes/unlawful conduct, condemn classified leaks and speak out for further#whistleblower reformhttps://twitter.com/thehill/status/822178091585912833 …

I think
@POTUS decision to commute#Manning's sentence was reasonable and fair under the specific circumstances https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/in-manning-clemency-call-obama-sought-to-reduce-sentence-viewed-as-nuts/2017/01/18/75b629d8-dd98-11e6-acdf-14da832ae861_story.html?utm_term=.3a9756100889 … -
Looking forward to talking w/
@BuckSexton on Wed at 12:30 pm to discuss#Manning and other#EspionageAct prosecutionshttp://www.theblaze.com/radio/ -

It's not that bad a decision.
#Manning had longest leaker sentence ever so message sent and was eligible for parole shortly.
