I congratulate her as well.
But I have many reservations. What actually changed?
Has the US government stopped killing civilians? NO.
Has the US government stopped spying on us? NO.
Has the US government stopped its war mongering? NO.
Is the world safer for transgendered persons? Perhaps.
And are the current "leakers" actually helping We The People? I doubt it.
In spite of all the anti-Trump leaks, Wall Street still has its hooks firmly planted in our economy; Facebook still shamelessly steals our data; the military still consumes our life blood; and the deep state still rules over all of us.
Thank you for your service, Chelsea. I wish there were more people like you, and that their sacrifices could ACTUALLY help us. We've got a long way to go.
