Position of trust?...how can we have whistleblowing if people in positions of trust who expose the government will be punished to the full extent of the law? The government has to be accountable and that means we have to protect whistleblowers, not punish them.

Of the two - Snowden looks more like a whistle blower. Manning just did a massive data dump.

I'd argue Snowden is more deserving of a pardon than Manning.

Remember like a day or two ago when Wikileaks was a major security issue and responsible for the illegitimate Presidency we are about to witness?

Good times.

If Snowden could link Trump and Russia, Obama would pardon and give him the Medal of Freedom in one last Rose Garden party.

Assange's lawyer has said he will stand by the deal he offered to Obama. He will allow himself to be extradited to the US if Manning was pardoned. So long, Assange. Appreciated all the exposure you gave to corrupt regimes around the world. Hope your "heart attack" won't be too painful.

Who else thinks that Obama sticks the final thumb in our collective eye by pardoning Bowe Bergdahl on his last day?
