Obama Commutes Bulk of Chelsea Manning’s Sentence

By CHARLIE SAVAGEJAN. 17, 2017

WASHINGTON — President Obama on Tuesday largely commuted the remaining prison sentence of Chelsea Manning, the army intelligence analyst convicted of an enormous 2010 leak that revealed American military and diplomatic activities across the world, disrupted the administration, and made WikiLeaks, the recipient of those disclosures, famous.

The decision by Mr. Obama rescued Ms. Manning, who twice tried to commit suicide last year, from an uncertain future as a transgender woman incarcerated at the male military prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kan. She has been jailed for nearly seven years, and her 35-year sentence was by far the longest punishment ever imposed in the United States for a leak conviction.

So if you get caught being a traitor, wear a dress and demand special privileges and off you go to freedom.

"Uncertain future"???   22222frying pan   He/she had another 28 years at Leavenworth. I'd hardly call that "uncertain."

Instead of serving 35 years for that breach, Manning is only going to serve 7.  Clearly a sop to the LGBT community -- no way Obama would have done this if Manning wasn't a man who wished he was a woman. Complete travesty, and sets a horrible precedent for mega-leakers moving forward.

He won't pardon her because she's not facing charges and pretty obviously isn't going to face charges.
