The Intercept is an American News Organization.

The Intercept is an online publication launched in February 2014 by First Look Media, the news organization created and funded by eBay founder Pierre Omidyar.

The editors are Betsy Reed, Glenn Greenwald, and Jeremy Scahill.

I hope this leaker is prosecuted to the highest extent possible by law. Winner was charged under the Espionage Act and faces up to 10 years in prison for leaking classified information.

Pluribus International should also lose its government contract. After that, they should sue her, too.

Actually she faces up to 10 years for each charge.

"Each count of 18 U.S.C. §793, the crime with which Ms. Winner is charged, carries a penalty of up to ten years in federal prison."

Presidents name is Trump, not Obama! Forget about the pardons! Federal prison is doing all the time, not reduced time!

She committed a crime and should be punished, but if you think revealing foreign interference in US elections is worthy of a life sentence then you are a complete and total traitor.
