The Snowden Job, Con't

Dudebro Defector Ed Snowden is now all but a Russian comrade, subject to whatever Daddy Putin wants him to do.

 

Edward Snowden swore an oath of allegiance to Russia and has collected his Russian passport, his lawyer said Friday.

The 39-year-old former intelligence contractor who leaked highly classified information in 2013 was granted Russian citizenship by Vladimir Putin in September.

He faces espionage charges and 30 years in prison in the United States if he were to return.

"Edward received a Russian passport yesterday and took the oath in accordance with the law," his lawyer Anatoly Kucherena said, according to Russia's Interfax news agency.

"He is, of course, happy, thanking the Russian Federation for the fact that he received citizenship," he continued. "And most importantly, under the Constitution of Russia, he can no longer be extradited to a foreign state."

 

At least, we think he's still alive. Who actually knows?

 

More importantly, who actually cares after handing over the crown jewels of American intelligence over to Vlad?

 

I tell you what, if there's a prime example of the term "traitor" here in the last decade, it's this guy. None of the Trump stuff happens without the Russians having the keys to essentially every US network out there. They knew everything and they leveraged it to do more damage to America than any bomb or weapon possibly could. 

I know as a Black man I don't owe this country any allegiance, but Russia has never, ever been our friend in my lifetime, either.
