Do you believe that Edward Snowden exposed unconstitutional actions conducted by our federal government in terms of the massive surveillance of American citizens?
Is Edward Snowden a patriot because he brought to light to Orwellian governmental survellience programs – or is he a traitor because he hampered the efforts of the federal government to win the ‘war on terror’ by conducting these programs that included every American citizen?
This year, a panel of judges on the Second Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the program Snowden exposed was NEVER legal. The Patriot Act DOES NOT authorize what the feds have been doing through the NSA.
“Statutes to which the government points have never been interpreted to authorize anything approaching the breadth of the sweeping surveillance at issue here,” Judge Gerard E. Lynch stated. “The sheer volume of information sought is staggering.”
Courts have ruled that this massive surveillance is NOT Constitutional.
Yet, Donald Trump has a concrete position: Edward Snowden is a traitor.
See Page 2:
In as much as I have been enjoying Trumps making mockery of the system that desperately needs mocked, he has sealed his doom with me here. Only one with elitist leanings see Snowden as a traitor.
So sorry Mr Trump. You’re dead to me now.
You CAN’T lose with CRUZ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I used to think he was a traitor. I don’t anymore.
Barry is the Traitor.
I agree. With out snowden we would have never found out about Prism and how much our 4A was being violated
I’ve had my own questioning doubts with Edward Snowden? Who is he really? I want to completely believe he’s true red, white and blue. and sincere? ..but he’s also a trained CIA agent and we still don’t have all the info.. We get a little installment, here and there? Also:Stalin (or was it Lenin?) used the ploy of allowing the secret out to the people that they were constantly spied upon and the government knew all about them.. Whether it did or not, it made the people ….cautious and it whips ’em down when they know, but feel powerless to stop it.
Trump is really a wolf in sheep’s clothing. He is a socialists and Clinton supporter, he is also a gun control advocate. I won’t vote for another liar.
When Mr Trump is advised of this onformation, I am confident that he will temper his view. I never heard of the second court of appeals decision either… Most likley because it has been buried by the liberla media.
I guess the question would be.. What would Trump do? Follow the law and respect the silent majority, no matter his personal feelings? That’s what we expect our president to do because that’s what our president is supposed to do…Respect our laws.. We don’t need any more hope and change away from our Cons$#%&!@*utional rights.
Has anyone ever thought for just one second that if the government was doing what it was supposed to that Snowden wouldn’t of had to tell on them about it…Unlike many politicians Snowden didn’t have the governments priorities on his list over humanities best interest. What’s even sadder is that know we know the truth we do nothing.
