I hate when they say “more to come.” Why the delay? What if he’s offed before the next announcement?

->>but if people end up getting killed because of any further information he is going to release, then he is making his own bed.

He has been releasing policy information. If he hurts someone, that is naturally different. Could you image working for the NSA and then talking about overreaching abuses that you've seen. I would be very afraid to trust anyone for help( I would not work for them in a position to abuse others rights)

If he had taken this to the WaPo someone from the on-premises office of the White House Liaison would have had him arrested in about two minutes.

No... I’m witholding judgement until the rest of the stuff comes out. To my knowledge, he hasn’t done anything treasonous...

Tut tut. Patience, my boy!

So much Obama Administration left to run. So many newspapers to sell.

He would have to beat zer0, hillary, panetta and a whole host of others there first to tell the plan. Think I’m kidding?

Will you PLEASE read the comments below that Snowden story in the Hong Kong paper. There is another ‘spook’ who is trying to be heard.....and he claims Hillary has helped.

I don’t know if it’s true,,but it sure is intriguing.

I think we entered the era of Spook Free-Agency around 1975

That’s the Telegraph. Carrying Obama’s water...maybe..Someone has to help in the damage control.

I just have to wait and go with the leaker.

I don’t trust the government with Obama.

Idunno. Has he leaked anything that threatens national security? The ability to capture digital data on the World Wide Web is not a secret.

But he has exposed the abuse of power.

So far I think it's a net positive.

They’re gathering information on the rats that scurry for cover. Those who have nothing to hide are sitting back waiting and watching. Those in the wrong are trying to Alinsky him before the message is out and are trying to hide the evidence.
Patience!

"U.S. Media ... paid performers of the State ... Pravda anyone?"

News here is sponsored by the most influential political constituents, who at various times and in many practices have each announced their environmental, anti-family, anti-competition (being against so much as any moderately free business climate) and anti-American sentiments (global, anti-Second-Amendment, anti-Fourth-Amendment). They comprise the wealthiest demographic--a commonly known fact that's hard for most to swallow, even in light of policies implemented by both political parties. They're linguistic activists. They even defiled our language with terms in perpetual conflict with our natural world.

yes, few can see, fewer know the truth. It is as Churchill said ... Most Men and Women when stumbling across the truth, they quickly pick themselves up and scurry off as if nothing happened.
