Transgender Chelsea Manning was convicted in a 2013 court martial of 20 counts, including violations of the Espionage Act, for illegally leaking more than 700,000 classified government documents to WikiLeaks. Chelsea Manning, known as Private Bradley Manning at the time of the crime, received a 35-year sentence, right after which she came out as a transgender and demanded that the army pay for sex change hormone treatment. Former President Barack Obama went one step further. Obama gave Manning a free “get of jail” card just days before the end of his term in office, granting clemency to the felon of all but 4 months of her 35-year sentence. She was released from prison last May, after serving only 7 years. In his last press conference as president, Obama doubled down on his clemency decision, declaring that "I feel very comfortable that justice has been served."

Democrats liked Bradley Manning. They love Chelsea Manning. Obama released Manning from prison and Manning may soon be a U.S. Senator
shouldn’t that be Chelsea Womanning?
Another politician without balls.
The only seat Manning deserves is the electric one.
Notice he/she/it is not running as a Republican. Good.
Bradley Manning.
Any Democrat who votes against him is transphobic.
Ive also noticed media outlets like to call him an officer.
One does not run for office without permission. He has sponsors. The question is just who they are?
The media gets confused very easily. Especially if they are not sleeping.
How does this thing run for office if it is a convicted felon? Never mind, I just looked it up. Maryland passed a law allowing this. Good going Maryland, of all the qualified people you want felons repping you.
Give me your seat!
I’m a GIRL!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Chelsea Clinton, that is - the DemocRAT's dream ticket!
I don't know about "running" and Maryland law, but I believe federal law denies the freak the ability to the office, having been convicted of mishandling classified documents.
So if the queer does manage to get elected, Maryland may well wind up picking some other RAT dirtbag.
Honestly, I don't think the Republicans would mind if he/she/it
ran as a Republican if they thought he/she/it could win.
That's how far the GOPe has sunk in the cesspool in my opinion.
Maryland has history of sending phony Republican/conservative
people to the Senate.
Cardin is running for re-election. Anyone who thinks Manning has a chance is crazy, and that includes Manning itself.
Point out where the Constitution says that.
Mr. Manning is NOT “running for a Senate seat”.
He is running for a party’s NOMINATION to run for a Senate seat.
Some people would vote for Milo if he was able to run.
Repeal the 17th Amendment.
Ben Cardin seems to be pretty well entrenched in the senate. I'll be a least a little bit surprised if this village-idiot manages to unseat him. I won't be "shocked", mind you, because such a high percentage of democrats these days are just plain stupid, but I will be somewhat surprised.
