I ran into an interesting Youtube video hosted by Maggie Moda of Undoctrination about Ed Snowden.
Maggie Moda on Ed Snowden - Hero or Traitor screengrab
I’ll be honest. My first thoughts on Snowden when he decided to go rogue and become a Whistleblower about criminal activity against American citizens was he was committing treason.
These thoughts were linked to Snowden’s path to evade U.S. prosecution by fleeing to CCP controlled Hong Kong and ending up in Russia.
HOWEVER over the years, the more I learned about the NSA deeds exposed to the light of day coupled with the political tyranny that transformed medical science into political science. This political led to tyrannical control of spreading false information as science truth followed by persecuting dissent.
The information shared in this video has led me full circle. Edward Snowden is an AMERICAN HERO. Yes Snowden broke the law to become a Whistleblower. AND YET the NSA crimes against Americans is so egregious, the laws Snowden broke to expose the NSA need a Presidential Pardon.
AND NOW, the informative video.

It's been over a decade since Edward Snowden met with journalists in his Hong Kong hotel room and revealed that America was violating the rights of its own citizens. He remains a controversial figure to this day. As Tulsi Gabbard assumes the position of Director of National Intelligence, all eyes are on her to potentially free Ed Snowden. Will she do it? Does he deserve a pardon? Is Edward Snowden a hero or a villain? Loyal to the American people or traitorous?
