The disclosures that Edward Snowden revealed aren't only a threat to privacy but to democracy, when the most important decisions made affect all of us. Thank you to Edward Snowden. I share this with Glenn Greenwald and other journalists who are exposing truth.
Snowden has enough [sic] information to cause harm to the U.S. government in a single minute than any other person has ever had.
