I have trouble with putting Assange and Snowden in the same category as Daniel Ellsberg. For one thing, Daniel Ellsberg was willing to go to trial. He didn’t hide in an embassy or run to Russia. Someone who runs to Russia, the country which poisons dissidents and currently has a WSJ reporter in jail-isn’t a champion for free speech. Also…
I have trouble with putting Assange and Snowden in the same category as Daniel Ellsberg. For one thing, Daniel Ellsberg was willing to go to trial. He didn’t hide in an embassy or run to Russia.

Also, there is a difference between exposing wrong doing and putting one’s thumb on the scale to hurt a political candidate
I never even mentioned Ellsberg, you drug him into the conversation.
Now if you refer to Julian Assange (putting his thumb on the scale to hurt Hillary)
Bear in mind, that he was a hero to the left, until he released Hilary's emails.
And why did he release Hillary's emails? He did so because Hillary as Secretary of State, pursued his extradition so he could get tried in America.
And why did she pursue his extradition, because she is part of the cabal, or rather was currying favor with them.
The homegrown fascists had, during Dubya's administration, used the attack of 9/11 as an excuse to pull out of the drawer the PATRIOT act, which was already written during the Clinton Administration, and kept in the safe until something would justify it.
The PATRIOT is a fascist wet dream, they were jubilant, and if Obama and Hillary were really Democrats, they would have killed it, but worse yet, when Hillary became Secretary of State, She doubled down and did the fascists bidding.
Maybe you are a fan of Hilllary, but I am not, she is not a progressive, just a self aggrandizing , self serving, opportunist. The wife of the man who created swing states, the rust belt, and was owned by international financial institutions and the Chamber of Commerce. I don't trust her, because of her track record and her apparent insincerity
And why do they call themselves a Chamber. In politics a Chamber is a word for a legislative body. For instance. Italy's Chamber of Deputies. In this case the Chamber of
Commerce is not officially a part of Congress, but through their bribes, they are.
