Who? I don’t know who he is.
@595JX2P4yrs4Y
Edward Snowden is an american hero for exposing all the corruption in our government. He should be granted immunity and protected
@4YBKK3V4yrs4Y
If the government forgives Hillary Clinton it should forgive Snowden.
@8NK6PJ64yrs4Y
Yes, as long as he is still granted asylum status elsewhere. He can never reliably expect to escape retaliation in the United States.
@5DY9RNC4yrs4Y
Yes, he should be protected under the Whistleblower Protection Act, and the directors of the CIA and NSA should be investigated.
@594K78C4yrs4Y
If Hillary Clinton can do it then why can't he. Fix the system.
