Tulsi Gabbard introduces bills to drop charges against Snowden, Assange

Quote:Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) tweeted her announcement of three new bills on Tuesday, which include two resolutions to drop espionage charges against NSA leaker Edward Snowden and WikiLeaks owner Julian Assange, and a third bill proposing reforms to the Espionage Act.

“Brave whistleblowers exposing lies & illegal actions in our government must be protected,” Gabbard tweeted. “Join me and urge Congress: Pass my bipartisan legislation (HRes1162, HRes1175, HR8452) calling for charges against @snowden & Assange to be dropped & to reform the Espionage Act.#PassItOn.”

Here is a woman positioning herself to lead the rebuilding of the Democratic Party.

Does she know what Assange is going to tell us? I suspect so.

She may be among the few Democrats left standing after all this clears.

Her sweaty cleavage could have given Trump a good run for his money. Hell...I could have tolerated her despite a couple of her stances. At least she is not bought and paid for by the radical Left.

I also disagree with some of her stances but I do respect her. Hopefully someone like her is the future of the Left.

I hope both have charges dropped. Both were just trying to bring truth and transparency to non insiders (basically everyone in this world)

I don't know. The Dems have pretty much tried to destroy her.

Political Theater. She should be above it.

Tulsi is the only dem I can stand. The Dems hate her though.... go figure

Can Congress do that?

If the executive branch signed the bill that the legislative branch passed, it would be hard for the judicial branch to ignore, IMO

true, I guess it just seems unusual.

Yes I can't think of a prominent example of this occurring in practice

Won't ever pass. There are too many in the Senate that the Deep State has in their pocket (they have some leverage over) for it to pass.

I wonder when Tulsi will realize that she is really more of a Republican than a Democrat? Yes, she still has some beliefs that are leftist but not all GOPers need to think exactly alike. If the dems continue to attack her maybe she will realize that.

She seems like one of the few Dems that are still sane.

Few assumes plural. I'm not willing to go that far.
