The Sad Fate Of America's Whistleblowers
Paul Craig Roberts believes Washington persecutes America's greatest patriots...
John Kiriakou is an American patriot who informed us of the criminal behavior of illegal and immoral US “cloak and dagger” operations that were bringing dishonor to our country. His reward was to be called a “traitor” by the idiot conservative Republicans and sentenced to prison by the corrupt US government.
Manning revealed US war crimes and after years of illegal pre-trial prison abuse was sentenced to 35 years in prison for keeping the vow to the US Constitution. Some of the idiot conservative Republicans thought the sentence was too light.
Tom Drake was ruined, and he kept his complaints about NSA illegality within the chain of command.
Julian Assange is confined by the US and UK governments in violation of international law to the Ecuadoran Embassy in London for doing his job and publishing leaked documents revealing the mendacity, immorality, and illegality of Washingtonn’s policies.
Edward Snowden is protected by Russia against Washington’s retribution for revealing that Washington’s illegal and unconstitutional spying is universal and includes the personal communications of all of the leaders of Washington’s own vassal states.
The American people accept the persecution of truth-tellers, because they have been brainwashed into believing that patriotism means defense of the government no matter what. As truth is so unfavorable to Washington, Americans believe that it must not be revealed, and if revealed, covered up, and those who reveal truth must be punished.
A country with such a population as this is a police state, not a free country.
It is an irony of history that a government and a population that believes truth must be covered up at all cost parades around the world acting as if Washington is the history’s agent for ?“bringing freedom and democracy to the world.”
As John Kiriakou most recently noted at OtherWords.org, history may smile on these guardians of the public trust, but during their lifetimes they remain outcasts...
What is it about whistleblowers that the powers that be can’t stand?
When I blew the whistle on the CIA’s illegal torture program, I was derided in many quarters as a traitor. My detractors in the government attacked me for violating my secrecy agreement, even as they ignored the oath we’d all taken to protect and defend the Constitution.
All of this happened despite the fact that the torture I helped expose is illegal in the United States. Torture also violates a number of international laws and treaties to which our country is signatory — some of which the United States itself was the driving force in drafting.
I was charged with three counts of espionage, all of which were eventually dropped when I took a plea to a lesser count. I had to choose between spending up to 30 months in prison and rolling the dice to risk a 45-year sentence. With five kids, and three of them under the age of 10, I took the plea.
Tom Drake — the NSA whistleblower who went through the agency’s chain of command to report its illegal program to spy on American citizens — was thanked for his honesty and hard work by being charged with 10 felonies, including five counts of espionage. The government eventually dropped the charges, but not before Drake had suffered terrible financial, professional, and personal distress.
This is an ongoing theme, especially in government.
Chelsea Manning is serving 35 years in prison for her disclosure of State Department and military cable traffic showing American military crimes in Iraq and beyond. And Edward Snowden, who told Americans about the extent to which our government is spying on us, faces life in prison if he ever returns to the country.
The list goes on and on.
Baltimore Police Department whistleblower Joe Crystal knew what he was getting into when he reported an incident of police brutality to his superiors after witnessing two colleagues brutally beat a suspect. Crystal immediately became known as a “rat cop” and a “snitch.”
He finally resigned from the department after receiving credible death threats.
It’s not just government employees either. Whistleblowers first brought attention to wrongdoing at Enron, Lehman Brothers, Stanford International Bank, and elsewhere.
And what’s their reward? Across the board, whistleblowers are investigated, harassed, fired, and in some cases prosecuted.
That’s the conclusion of author Eyal Press, whose book Beautiful Souls: The Courage and Conscience of Ordinary People in Extraordinary Times documents the struggles of whistleblowers throughout history. Press’s whistleblowers never recover financially or professionally from their actions. History seems to smile on them, but during their lifetimes they remain outcasts.
This is a tragedy. Blowing the whistle on wrongdoing should be the norm, not the exception.
I recently visited Greece to help the government there draft a whistleblower protection law. The Greek word for “whistleblower” translates as “guardian of the public trust.” I wish our own government’s treatment of whistleblowers could reflect that understanding.
Yet even legal guarantees of protection from prosecution and persecution aren’t enough — especially if, as in the case of existing law, national security employees are exempt from these safeguards.
Instead, society must start seeing things differently. Like the Greeks, all of us need to start treating whistleblowers as guardians, not traitors. And if we value what freedoms we have left, we should demand that our government do the same.

"all of us need to start treating whistleblowers as guardians, not traitors. And if we value what freedoms we have left, we should demand that our government do the same."
Yes, let's petition the government to protect us from the government. Seems perfectly reasonable.
In particular, when you start talking about "what freedons we have left" you've completely missed the boat. It's like admitting that you already know all your freedoms will be taken away, but maybe we could protect one or two of them for a few years more.... if we're lucky.
Why not demand ALL your liberties? There's a document that describes them. I forget what it's called, but I'm fairly sure we don't use it much any more.
Yes, one of many things and all begin with turning off the TV and learning to think, to reject the propaganda.
Reducing the targeting of their propaganda, their understanding of you will help, also.

Clinton on Snowden: "He broke the laws of the United States. He could have been a whistleblower. He could have gotten all of the protections of being a whistleblower. He could have raised all the issues that he has raised. And I think there would have been a positive response to that."
Norman Solomon on Clinton: "Hillary Clinton gave hypocrisy a bad name. What she had to say had no intersection with reality. We have talked about how in the case of Jeffrey Sterling, but in many other instances such as the NSA whistleblower Thomas Drake, another brave whistleblower, going through channels actually marked them for persecution and prosecution. And the idea that Hillary Clinton was floating, that somehow there are channels for whistleblowers to go through in the so-called national security arena as whistleblowers, that is ridiculous. And either she was being mendacious or ignorant, or some combination."
I saw a docu where Drake was interviewed. It is worth noting how his charges were dropped. He said that ALL of the information he had revealed were in the public domain, so he did NOT reveal state secrets. He sold his house to be able to pay researchers/private detectives and proved that each an every bit of information was indeed publicly known. Only THEN were the charges dropped.
What is described in the article as absolute loyalty to the government and system sounded like the aboslute loyalty that people expressed for Hitler.
Ther fifth quote is the most apropos. It's slipping away in a hurry.

Who would down vote that.
No doubt it was a typical Statist. To support any State activity (Military, Corporations, Food Stamps, Currency, Water, etc.) is support of all state activities. All endeavors undertaken by The State being with theft, at gunpoint. To support The State, is to support theft (of all propery).
In France we leave unmolested those who set fire to the house and persecute those who sound the alarm bell. -- Nicolas Chamfort--d.1794
oh, such BULLSHIT!
Care to explain?
Crooks!!!
Reporter Michael Hastings was a whistleblower of sorts and he ended up being murdered and, based on the fast cremation of his body, tortured. There is a trail of dead bodies that show what happened to people who knew too much about the Saudi/Mossad/Bush 9/11 plot. One guy who worked at the World Trade Center and mentioned something about pre-planted explosives in the building wound up dead a few days later. America is just like Nazi Germany today with death squads available to carry out Obama's kill list orders here, not abroad.
When it happened, Spiegel had a list of tenents of the buildings. When I looked again two days later that had vanished.
There were some Australians who died there, and some relatives wanted to liaise with the the other relatives of the deceased. Department of Foreign Affairs refused to release any names so they could not get together. Obviously they would have had to ask every relative 'do you want relatives of other deceased to know your name and phone number'. They actively prevented group formation. One Australian was working on telecommunication, no further detail.
By contrast, the victims of the Bali bombings shortly after were all identified with picture, name, etc in the press. Not the 9/11 victims. I once read something about a connection with Yamashita gold, but can't remember the rather confusing details.
They can dismiss all of us as neurotic and paranoid conspiracy theorists. But when there are too many oddities and secrets we speculate, having every right to it.
They can give us the truth, we can take it. But they don't because they have something that has to be hidden. We haven't seen interviews with the parents of the deceased pilots either. Well coordinated, but the truth will come out one day.
The "Constitution" is just another government LAW. Your rights predate that. All sovereign individuals predate government.
You forgot Sibel Edmonds... a federal gag order keeps her silent
http://www.boilingfrogspost.com/about-us/about-sibel-edmonds/
http://www.justacitizen.com/
An FBI translator, she stumbled across intercepts involving US politicians, Turkish generals, arms dealers, drug dealers and 'terrorists'. The few Senators she talked to were 'alarmed' - but the response was to silence her.
You think things might have changed after Hastert (supposedly a key figure in all this as Speaker of the House) got nabbed paying hush money to cover up his sexual 'indiscretions' but DC protects its own
from the boiling frog link : " ....and the Congress of the United States has been gagged and prevented from any discussion of her case through retroactive re-classification issued by the Department of Justice."
I call bullshit on that statement. The Justice Department nor any other part of the Executive Branch has any authority over the Legislative Branch.
When these purveyors of conspiracy theory write a story it would behove them to get some very basic facts right. When they write something like the above which contradict basic knowledge of the constitution,. their entire story is suspect and so it is impossible to tell what is true and what else is bullshit.
I could easily rewrite this story to something lot more logical and believable. She did indeed find problems and reported them. The management buried it because it showed that they or their friends were incompetent. She like a good person pushed it but management being political hacks wanted it to go away so not to imped they career and they looked for any reason or pretence to fire her.
She did talk to some congressmen or senators but these are egotistical blowhards and they might have pretended to care all the while thinking about how to screw Joe public and she was just a bother to them. There was no upside for them in her story so they quickly forgotten it.... or better yet. What she discovered involved some private company that they were actually getting kickback ... ahh contributions from...
Considering the dereliction of duty that congress seems to be guilty of, I'm not that surprised that they are letting DO (anything but) J lord over therm.
Nothing new there.
The criminal and evil judges, legislators and government executives will go to any lengths to cover up each others crimes. Nothing new in that.
And, Gawd forbid it not be new. Why new is all there is! Doncha know that's why they call it news?
If it aint news dont fix it.
[Snowden is a traitor]
-Tea Party Rock Star Marco Rubio
-Tea Party Pedophile Marco Rubio
The TEa Party was conned by that creep Rubio. Most TP people hate him now.
Foolishly, many have fallen for TPP and Goldman Sachs boy Ted Cruz.
+100....Rubio and Cruz are the opposite of Tea Party
NOW do you understand why I say vote for the least-financed candidate to any elected government office and allow them only one term? It's about the only thing we can do without violence. And as ZHer's know, the government has much more ammo than we do.
Most know it's not the voters that elect,,, it's the vote counters. In this case the vote counters are computers with so many doors that if it were a structure it would collapse.
Whistleblowers tell the truth.
There's no place for truth in an extend-and-pretend economy.
Truth is treason in the empire of lies.
You'd have a point, if Snowden, et al, had only revealed illegal or immoral activity. But they didn't. They revealed a whole lot that they hadn't even looked at.
So, if they're heroes, they are careless and irresponsible heroes.
Bullshit. Snowden should have dumped everything on wikileaks rather than the very cautious approach he used.
Nobody has been targeted as a result of any of the, although the gov says that every time, they can never back it up. We left translators, etc. in Iraq when we left, army officers tried very hard to get the OK to bring them here, could never make it happen. That had nothing to do with any leaks, that was our State Department.
You can't back that up. You know you can't back that up.
Boy, that's a toughie. Careless and irresposible heroes or careful, resposible traitors, hmmm, toughie indeed.
He did reveal illegal and immoral activity and it doesn't matter how many times you and filth like you say otherwise. The NSA scandal isn't over. It's a rotting festering sore that won't go away, much like all the other scandals over the past few decades. IT IS WHY uncle satan has no credibility and no moral high ground.
Uncle Satan - always makes me laugh
Please do not slander Satan
your point, Miss?
In other words, fuck all sunshine laws, too. After all, they are LEGAL, usually.
Please rethink what you posted.
As a serial Federal Whistleblower, I assure ya'll that all of the above is correct...
The only even remotely thoughtful comment on Snowden during the Dem debate was made by Bernie Sanders who acknowledged that Snowden provided very valuable knowledge to the American citizen. The rest of his answer wasn't perfect - but was head and shoulders above the other scum (like Hillary).
Obama is much worse than any president ever when it comes to attacking freedom of information. Obama is a Neocon, Zionist. He wants zionsim to work in secret, he wants to keep the people ignorant of his sell out to total zionist control. That's why he seeks to put whistle blower sin jail for ever, Obama is no liberal, he is an evil fucking zio fascist.
As Bill kristol put it, a born again neo con. I don't think the Osama slayer has much choice in the matter, but you are right the man is a total POS.
Chelsea Manning is a he,,, not a her.
I personally will not partake of this sick and demented gender bender horse hockey.
Who are you to tell someone anything about themselves? It isn't your business, you don't define their reality. It is freedom, you know?
And why does it offend you? What skin is lost off your nose?
XY is male. It has testes. If he came out and demanded to be called and treated as Napoleon, he would be thrown in an institution, but for no good reason we are expected to allow and abide a man to be called a woman?
Sheer lunacy.
I own my body. I can do any gd thing I want with my body and it is none of your gd business.,
Chelsea Manning is an entity with full human rights, which includes wearing any body she wishes in whatever version she can attain. Your wants and wishes and offended mind are of no weight in her decisions and none in mine.
Think as you wish, speak as you wish, and we will laugh at your simple thinking, but very much condemn your attempts to force that simple one-size fits all culture on the rest of us.
This is a Freedom issue, of the same level as any human right, the 1st and 2nd Amendment. Living life to suit ourselves so long as we do not intrude on the lives of others is the issue, and I defend Chelsea Manning for the same reason I defend those issues.
Lunacy it is. You want to believe lies and in mutilation, well then I guess that is on you. Just don't ask me to pay for, subsidize, or accept your insanity. That is my freedom.
Just to record the event, I voted you up.
Also, note that those kind of opinions are exactly what the anti-gun people lay on us : no rational reason for anything, just unreasoning dislike for our understanding of how thngs must be, should be, and attempts to restrict our freedom based on nada.
ah, ya wound me up. The LGBQWTFBBQSAUCE things gets me wound up because of the insane ground they have taken in recent history. From Chic-Fil-A to Brendon Eich, and Hobby Lobby, and the bathroom and lockerroom crap. Chelsea Manning...rofl.
Unfortunately now that Obozo care has been rolled out, the government owns your body, my body, and everyone elses bodies. Soon we will be instructed at gunpoint(does the government give instruction in any other way?) to call each othe Ze, Zha, etc.
http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2015/08/28/call-me-ze-not-university-want...
Have you noticed that the only group making progress in civil liberties as of late are those in the LGBT community? Weird, no? Otherwise, we're all going backwards.
One of my two long-time friends is gay. He is a gun-owner, shooter, ... Fully as pro-Constitution, pro-Freedom as anyone here.
You do own your own body and can do with it as you please.
I also own my body which includes the brain and mouth and fingers.
The brain tells me that Manning is freak and is everybody else who does what it did.
My mouth allows me to say these things and my fingers allow me to type it.
You, stating that it is normal, also show yourself to be fucked in the head and frankly I do not care.
>> XY is male. It has testes.
There is no evidence that Chelsea Manning is XY.
People who are not XX and not XY are more common than is generally thought. 1 in 1000 or thereabouts.
sorry but if you are tall, blonde and male...saying you are short, red head and female...doesn't make it so
"And why does it offend you? What skin is lost off your nose?"
Dave Chappelle said it best (about Bruce Jenner): ‘I support anyone’s right to be who they want to be. My question is: to what extent do I have to participate in your self-image?’
Because you believe that red is green, that doesn't give you the right to ignore a traffic light. These cross-gender people are crazy - whether it's internal or externally caused, I can't say, but they are crazy. We've moved beyond putting them in straightjackets, and confining them to rubber rooms, but do we, as Chappelle notes, have to ACCEPT their delusions as reality? Not me.
You are not required to accept anything about reality. Labeling people as crazy labels the labeler as indeliably as the labeled.
Labeling is not the same as comprehension.

I'm not trying to be facetious or caustic but I think the rest of the "whistleblowers" that tried to move it through the bureacracy either were bribed to shut up with money or death threats or are probably dead.
Case in point. If nobody has heard of Colonel Gene Shue this is an example of the ones who "got fragged" for attempting to report what they had heard from those in uniform that knew about 9/11 and it's coverup!
Any others?... Even if this list was "20x" the number of individuals listed above how fucking more pathetic and scary could it possibly be that after the "false flag" of all "false flag" events 14 years ago in Manhattan and Washington D.C. that this is all we have to show as a Nation for the honor, courage and patriotism that comes with telling the truth in the face of the evilest of lies?...
Seal Team 6 all died by friendly fire-they were the witnesses (uneeded) at Bin Ladens "Traditional Muslim Burial at sea" lol

Or so we've heard...
Maybe "Seal Team 6" is on some beach sipping margaritas with the passengers from flight 93 in some exotic resort?
Always wondered why the story of a "flight 93" was never reported spotted by a number of ground crew at Hopkins International in Cleveland the day of 9/11?!! Wonder how many UA workers at Hopkins might have been sacrificed for what they mistakenly saw?...
At the end of my comment I mentioned how "scary" and "pathetic" it is when I provided that list... Did I forget to use the word "sick" when I left out the "for $" words?!!!
You can add Aaron Swartz to the list.

Amen to that brother. My apologies for leaving his name out of that list.
He was the next genius to Gutenburg's "printing press" and the internet that should be...
A brilliant light snufffed out by the Zionist's far too early!
It's amazing how so many mistake State Security for National Security.
State Security hides unlawful government actions by posing as National Security.
National Security will affect the security of the nation.
What these whistle blowers revealed never put the nation at peril,,, only the government.
If you blow a whistle in the USA you get put on a terrorist watch list lol.
Cant be blowing whistles in the USA without an updated passport and a plane ticket to a country that wont deport your ass.

You are Free to leave if you dont like the way our dear leader runs things, but you better watch your back because our dear leader may send his goons to black bag you one day while you are buying groceries.
Irwin Schiff Dies A Political Prisoner | BLACKLISTED NEWS
Published: October 18, 2015
Peter Schiff reported last night his father Irwin passed away, the US government failed to grant his cancer stricken father clemency despite his sickly state (which they caused by misdiagnosing him) and insisted he die shackled to a hospital bed with armed guards outside his door.
Peter Schiff writes:
My father, Irwin A. Schiff was born Feb. 23rd 1928, the 8th child and only of son of Jewish immigrants, who had crossed the Atlantic twenty years earlier in search of freedom. As a result of their hope and courage my father was fortunate to have been born into the freest nation in the history of the world. But when he passed away on Oct. 16th, 2105 at the age of 87, a political prisoner of that same nation, legally blind and shackled to a hospital bed in a guarded room in intensive care, the free nation he was born into had itself died years earlier.
As a tribute, Peter shared the above video (see link) of his father speaking at the Libertarian Convention 1996.
Irwin was an inspiration to millions of us, myself included, his brilliant comic-style book "How an Economy Grows & Why it Doesn't" explained economics to me in a way I never understood and changed my life forever as a result, hundreds or thousands of contradictions in my mind were wiped out in a few hours, no doubt it helped millions of people wake up to the simple beauty of real economics as opposed to the pseudoscience fraud of Keynesianism which is taught in schools.
Please celebrate this amazing man's life by spreading his works far and wide as a big F-you to the evil government which imprisoned him for standing up to their thuggery.
Irwin Allan Schiff (February 24, 1928 – October 16, 2015)

RIP
God speed, Peter
I'm not a big fan of Edward Snowden and I don't understand what his "revelations" have added to the public's understanding of the NSA's domestic surveillance apparatus. I find his behavior odd, his personality unstable, and his mood swings inexplicable. Ditto for "Chelsea" Manning. Anybody who pretends to be the opposite sex is certainly no hero of truth and transparency.
There's something weird going on with these folks. I would guess that their whistleblowing is rooted in their exaggerated sense of self and a desire to magnify their importance by sticking it to the government. And yes, it is treasonous. I wouldn't call what they did real whistleblowing. They put ordinary people at risk and damaged their country's institutions by doing things the way they did them. They used their supposed devotion to a higher law as a means of self-exaltation. This is the kind of sanctimonious grandstanding that detracts from legitimate attempts to expose breaches of the public trust.
If you are not just here to annoy, distract, your thinking is wierd indeed.
Edward Snowden speaks in complete paragraphs of very clear and connected thinking about the essence of problems he deals with. You don't come close to that level.
“Always look for the truth from the ground up, rarely from the top down. Journalists are never real journalists if they are the agents of power, no matter how they disguise that role. Real journalists are agents of the people." – John Pilger
“If you’re not careful, the newspaper will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” –MALCOLM X
“Why do we have wars? Because we are ruled by an elite group of psychopaths who own the banks that control the governments and media. They fund both sides of war for profit and they manufacture the consent of the public through the propaganda of the media.” –Libertarian Nation
“You must understand. The leading Bolsheviks who took over Russia were not Russians. They hated Russians. They hated Christians. Driven by ethnic hatred they tortured and slaughtered millions of Russians without a shred of human remorse. The October Revolution was not what you call in America the ‘Russian Revolution.’ It was an invasion and conquest over the Russian people. More of my countrymen suffered horrific crimes at their bloodstained hands than any people or nation ever suffered in the entirety of human history. It cannot be understated. Bolshevism was the greatest human slaughter of all time. The fact that most of the world is ignorant of this reality is proof that the global media itself is in the hands of the perpetrators.” --Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Please tell us who Manning put at risk.
https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/
You have named yourself very well.
well, lookee here, we have another dimwit liberal PhD Psycholgist!
The whole structure of whistleblowing, EEOC complaints, discrimination complaints, etc are stacked to protect the government (or employer). The person trying to make the complaint is never told everything - so many cases are tossed out on technicalities. The government or employer gets 'control' of co-workers so the person making complaints never gets to talk with them to flesh out a comlaint. The only real hope a complainer has is to get a good lawyer before they file anything (keeping that very quiet) - and build the whole case before they file.
Most people drink the cool aid because they are inmature and want some "Mutti" to look after them whether that Mutti is the State, the church or television. Perhaps they want freedom (or so they claim) but they don't want the responsibility that comes with it. In the end they just want to be part of 'something'. Cause it gives a nice warm feeling.
Most Americans I have met over about a decade have no clue about what the concept of freedom even means. I realized this about 3 years ago. They think it's somethig abstract that does not even exist anywhere
Paul,
You might have forgotten Harry Markopolus, the whistle blower to the SEC on Bernard Maddoff's pyramid scheme.
But, then again, where do we stop listing the real American patriots (whistle blowers)?
These people put their lives on the line for a purpose and an idea and future generations.
Let's not kid ourselves.
Let's stop wanting to believe in the lies.
America is not the dream of wholesome righteousness the propaganda would have you believe.
Once we get over it, then we can begin see the truth and correct it.
People will die. It will get ugly before the powerful die and the American people see what they have become.
My question to ZH readers is:
What the fuck have you done?
My answer to you is that I have WITHDRAWN FINANCIAL SUPPORT whereever and whenever it is possible as Financial Support is SUPPORT.
Own a business? Fire your employees and close your doors. Why pay them unnecessary taxes and why produce?
Live off of SAVINGS.
Elevate the unemployment rate and make it worse.
Drain the Beast of resources and STARVE IT.
What have you done?
Yes.
Go broke for freedumb!
its how religious people can be such suckers, they treat the goverment like their immediat family or some mafia ring the`ve sworn into, what needs to be defined here is what is true courage for its fellow man vs cowards of silence for fear of reprisal,, its not loyalty if its working against us...and it almost always is these days. Americans of all people fought and won the right to stand against their goverment , its what makes America great, and too few dont seem to get this.

TRUTH == GOD
America trusts in G.O.D. == god of death

telling the truth is a science
.
your wrong until your right and everyone agrees
.
then its just a theory of everything, which is why people are ostracized, misunderstood, ridiculed, and played off
.
thinking is hard work
It's fun to look at a genuine whistleblower like Drake compared to a limited hangout op like Snowden and compare the MSM coverage.
Peyton Manning?
Whistleblowing is a felony. Felons go to jail. The average American commits three felonies a day. Can you connect the dots?
This isn't about protecting government secrets, it's about silencing all anti-government speech. By anybody. Including you.
From Thieves Emporium:
******
"With enough data, my lawyers can always find a crime. They'll prosecute. Bury anyone under legal motions, make his life miserable. Maybe even send him up for some felony."
"Even if he didn't do anything?"
"Of course he did something. There are 100,000 laws on the books, twice that in regs. Somewhere, sometime, by accident or intentionally, he broke one. We get a moving x-ray of his life, all we have to do is find it."

That's what the surveillance state is really about.
Thieves Emporium is a very prescient book. For both the problem and the solution.

Whistleblower = regime opposer/deposer
What reaction would you expect from the regime to an opposer/deposer ?
All the commotion about the "Glamour Whistleblowers" .... I want to see an army of low level whistle blowers .... then work up the chain of corruption .... focusing only on the high flyers diverts attention .... from the pervasive corruption and cronyism at all levels .... ordinary workers and the middle class are the new "niggers" .... and it must be exposed and stopped .... another year with no COLA .... for people who paid into the system !
The whistle was blown on Hillary and Lois Lerner .... why aren't they in jail .... in Lesbo Lockdown ?
Several of the TEA PARTY actors have called Snowden a traitor.
Meanwhile, the TEA PARTY hasn't really done shit to reign in spending.
It certainly is.
