It was not draconian. She leaked highly classified documents that were part of an ongoing investigation into cyber security in our elections. There was no good reason to do so, and doing so was a federal crime. She did the time for her actions.

The draconian treatment of #RealityWinner is repeated daily in the lives of hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions of people. Institutional cruelty within our criminal justice and prison systems is in direct contradiction to everything we are meant to be. thedissenter.org/mother-of-n…

Also, evidence that Russians were trying to hack the election shouldn’t be “highly classified material.” 50 million classified documents a year has more to do with government secrecy than with national security.

Intelligence reports are secret for a reason. They contain information on US intelligence efforts that could be used to undermine those investigations and put Americans at risk.

Some things of course need to be classified & kept secret. But things aren’t supposed to be classified just because it’s inconvenient to officialdom for them to be known. We’ve found out about torture, war crimes, gratuitous civilian casualties from leaks of classified documents.
