in my prior life, having dealt with highly classified information, I don't approve of a pardon.

just because you don't agree with whats going on, doesn't give you the right to violate what you signed up and agreed to never divulge and swore to protect.

if you disagree strongly, resign and go away. work it from another angle.

Believe it or not, Snowden hurt our operational capabilities against some seriously bad people with his divulging of certain programs.

I know this is not a popular belief here. He broke the law, regardless, and as a nation of laws he should have to be tried for it. This is not like a Roger Stone, or Gen Flynn thing. Snowden willfully broke several federal laws and gave our adversaries (CCP) advantages when he divulged some of our collection abilities. You scream about Feinstein and the chicoms, well snowden is no different than her really.
