In America, whistle blowers are supposed to be PROTECTED.
Yet, when Wikileaks releases 20,000+ emails PROVING the DNC colluded against the Sanders campaign, nothing REALLY happens. Let's lay down exactly what DID happen:
1) Debbie Wasserman-Shultz resigns in "disgrace".
2) Debbie Wasserman-Shultz is appointed co-chair of the Hillary Clinton campaign.
3) Obama files an "electronic terrorism" case against Wikileaks in order to protect the DNC.
4) VP Joe Biden calls Wikileaks "high tech terrorists".
5) A potential DNC whistle blower is found murdered outside his apartment with a gunshot wound to his back and is treated as a "mugging" despite nothing being taken.
6) Near radio-silence from the media.
Even with clear proof that the DNC is corrupt, the Obama administration, instead of praising Wikileaks for bringing this to light, vilifies and demonizes them. And to top it all off, the media barely gives this any attention.
American politics is corrupt, and the people of the United States need to demand transparency and unbiased media.
Blockchain tech could fix many of these issues. (:
Thank you for posting. I consider many politicians these days terrorists. They are not my leaders, I pledge no allegiance to them and that includes the last few presidents. I pledge my allegiance to finding truth. I pledge my allegiance to learning and spreading the work of Bitcoin and all other application of blockchain tech I think would advance freedom and liberty for all people. Wikileaks is a truth factory in this sea of lies of what is a constructed reality for us through the MSM. I think Assange and Snowden are patriots. That is why I donate to them when I can in small amounts of BTC. Go send Snowden and Assange some BTC right now, even if it's just 10 cents!!
I am German but I've heard of all of your stated cases; whistleblowers, wikileaks, DNC... It was in the media all the time. In Germany, we are having the same kind of corruption. We for example have the BND (Bundesnachrichtendienst) that, due to certain laws, wasn't allowed to spy on the citizens so they just went to the American NSA and bought the data of German citizens.
The privacy of millions is being scammed but the only thing we are interested in is "who wins the world cup" or what will happen in the next episode of Game of Thrones".
