The Spygate Leakers Aren't Whistleblowers, They're Criminals
Brian Cates

Commentary

To expose how former President Lyndon B. Johnson’s administration had been lying to both Congress and the U.S. public about the Vietnam War, in 1971, Daniel Ellsberg leaked a classified Department of Defense report to The New York Times.

That leaked report came to be known popularly as “The Pentagon Papers,” and the newspaper’s publication of it resulted in a landmark legal case.

Naturally, the U.S. government wasn’t too happy with Ellsberg or the newspaper, and argued that Ellsberg had committed a felony under the 1917 Espionage Act. The position of the government was that it’s simply illegal to publish classified information, no matter the reason.

The leakers were not the complainant in the dog-whistleblower report.  Therefore, none of the protections in the Whistleblower Protection statute apply to them.  They should be found, and punished.  The CIA person knew this, and they should pay for their ignorance.

And just like that liberal democrats develop a soft spot for spies, domestic surveillance and the CIA.

Let’s just say they’ve evolved.

I don't think turds with premeditated political agendas qualify for the definition of a Whistle Blower.

Just like the lie known as "climate change", the left generates false monickers, grabs the narrative by the  balls, and the complict MSM runs with it.
