Discussion: Accused Top-Secret Leaker Reality Winner Denied Bond

ā€œI want to burn the White House down ā€¦ find somewhere in Kurdistan to live. Haha.ā€

Being highly knowledgeable in one area does not equate to equal knowledge or wisdom in other areas. Burn the Whitehouse down and go live in Kurdistan? Then you leak top-secret material. The first is a stupid statement to make on any forum. The later is an extreme high risk endeavor. When combined itā€™s bone headed stupid.

Her motormouth imbecile father can explain how we got her in this jam! Youā€™ve got the stage, pop, take it away!

Maybe start with the part how heā€™d not like to throw away money on a lawyer!

She wrote ā€˜hahaā€™ write next to the sentence. ā€œburning down the white houseā€ is clearly hyperbole, ā€œfinding someone in Kurdistanā€ clearly in jest.

To a prosecutor or a judge, itā€™s irrelevant that it was in jest.

No bond because they donā€™t want another Snowden taking off to Hong Kong or Russia.

Agree, this kid is naive at best.

Update Govnt is saying evidence is that she took more than one doc, had them on a flash drive.

I say again, this is not a patriotic act. I have only a casual sympathy for her.

Weird that the President of the United States is a more dire threat
to the country than a 25-year-old woman named Reality Winner.
