Trump is issuing pardons today; I hope they include Julian Assange, Edward Snowden and Reality Winner.

Why are the republicans so hate filled tonight? Trump lost, deal with it.
Displaying a healthy dose of Loserthink here.

Unfortunately these nazi 12 years olds feel like their opinion is wanted in any way
No it just means that Tucker is right.
Yes this meme was particularly powerful. Frankly I don't know how Trump didn't win the popular vote too...

Yeah but she was at least attempting to be a legitimate whistleblower. Snowden and Assange have very convenient foreign ties. She got screwed over by The Intercept and got a long sentence for documents that hurt nobody

It depends on the documents. I鈥檓 receptive to hearing an argument as to how Reality鈥檚 leak hurt anyone, but I鈥檓 yet to hear a convincing case for it. Assange and Wikileaks are basically a GRU front at this point, and you think Russia gave Snowden asylum cause Putin鈥檚 a nice guy?

The problem is Snowden doesn鈥檛 get to run off to Russia, deliver god knows what secrets to the Kremlin and then come back like nothing happened. If you don鈥檛 think Reality should be pardoned because of the message it says about contractors, why is Snowden any different?

I think this is where we disagree, I don鈥檛 believe him. I鈥檝e never known Putin to give anyone something for nothing, and I don鈥檛 think a symbolic middle finger to the US would have been enough for him to grant Snowden asylum.

If that鈥檚 the case then I have faulty information and you鈥檝e changed my mind. I鈥檓 skeptical of the fact that Snowden gave nothing to Russia, but skepticism shouldn鈥檛 be grounds for someone being exhiled or imprisoned for life
