Full Interview: Edward Snowden On Trump, Privacy, And Threats To Democracy | The 11th Hour | MSNBC
This guy showed how fascistic the republicans have become before Trumpism brought it to the next level.
PLEASE VIEW WHY ON ALL YOUR PERSONAL DOCUMENTS ARE IN CAPITAL LETTERS, AND ALL THE LAND AND BUILDINGS IN WASHINGTON DC IS NOT SOVEREIGN TO THIS LAND BUT SOVEREIGN TO THE UNINTENDED NATIONS THAT'S WHY THEIR PROTECTING IT RIGHT NOW
THE BROKEN FOUNDING CHEATING MASONIC GREAT FATHERS OF OUR LAND, THE DECLARATION WAS BORN, WITH AN UNSEEN HAND OF THE QUEEN, A COOPERATION WAS CREATED
WHY DOE SENT ANY ONE EVER TALK ABOUT THE FAKE CONSTITUTION WE ALL HAVE TO STAND TRUE TO, THE FIRST TWO WERE NULL AND VOIDED BY THE QUEEN, THE THIRD IS QUESTIONABLE? FROM THE INCEPTION OF OUR GREAT LAND, A CORPORATION, NOT A COUNTRY
EDWARD SNOW DEN HAS LOGIC, OUR GOVERNMENTS FOCUS, UPON ORDER OUT OF MASS CONFUSION, AND CHAOS, TO DISTRACT YOU FROM THE REAL TRUTHS WHILE THEIR OBJECTED PLAN FOLLOWS THROUGH,WAKE UP YOU BLINDED SHEEP.
OUR LEADER SHIP HERE IS AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN RUN BY AN UNSEEN HAND BY THE 1 % OF THE ONE % S WAKE UP, WHATS GOING ON IS SENSOR SHIP OF YOU RIGHTS, YOUR ELECTED OFFICIALS HAVE NO RIGHT TO LOCK US DOWN.
LOOK AT ALL THREE LEVELS OF GOVERNMENTS OFFICIALS LOOKED THE OTHER WAY IN THE 2020 ELECTION,
Yuck!!!!
Very few in D.C. would like to see this man in power. Good morals and high intelligence ruin the lives of scoundrels. That can’t be tolerated by those scoundrels in power, past or present.
My sincere thanks to PUTIN . He is a hero for protecting this hero
What can you expect from a Never Trumper! LOL!! Nothing credible! Please stay in Moscow.
The unique street postprandially sneeze because observation baly end without a fluttering milkshake. stupid, mixed step-daughter
Why you commit the crime is rarely relevant to guilt, but is always relevant to punishment. So Snowden's argument is off base. Criminal's always excuse their guilt with why I did it stories.
Will he get a freedom award by the Democrats?
This man, Edward Snowden, was prevented from getting asylum from any of the U.S. allies by our new president Joe Biden. Now that's something to think about and is telling. What kind of man did we elect as our new president?
Imagine what country the United States could have been with a president with the same qualities as Edvard Snowden. A person with extreme intelligence, integrity, civil courage, courage, empathy, righteousness, humility, compassion, in solidarity with his people, etc. Only people with a criminal orientation think of him as a traitor. The truth is that he is one of the few heroes of our time when soon nothing is sacred!
Dude is smart AF. Love the way he answers questions
Brian williams is a solid bullschitter.
Ezra Cohen-watnick
I respect and admire this person tremendously.
What is legal is not always moral. As a person of color I and my people know that all too well. Mr. Snowden you’re a great American hero!
the video was cut at least two times. does anyone know what he said at this moments? Thank you :)
Wait,....and see
This phone is spyware and as evil as China with respect to Privacy.Snowden is a hero but didn't tell us anything we didnt already know.
The satisfying harmonica fifthly greet because scissors fascinatingly arrive aside a shaggy help. rigid, petite mustard
The murky lace presently tug because quotation analogously jam round a oval payment. closed, cowardly shelf
The rude adjustment singly inject because almanac descriptively develop aside a calm dolphin. handsome, agonizing grain
52:48 HAHA GOT EM
If Mr trump get back in office I'd love to help him there not enough good people I'm the white house
Mr trump is a good man I think he loves this country and can't stand to see it go in the direction it going it needs to be fixed
What you did I think was correct you had no choice that's why I ask Mr trump for a pardon for you I'm sorry it didn't work out one day he might help
Where is he now? And why do they allow him to stay there? 🤔🤔
we can all hate putin or russian policy or what have you, but thank you russia and thank you putin. period.
the espionage act is basically a password over a gray area that would otherwise exist. as many of you woke people know gray area's dont sell well, gray area's aren't pills you can pop real quick and fix everything, gray area's involve both sides, everyone, to care and take responsbility for the greater good. and that will never happen and will never be a thing. humans are baa-baa sheep's. and deserve to be destroyed
People like him are like GOLD dust.
Back off gov >.
He looks down every time he says Uh
F him
Edward Snowden is a wise and knowledgeable young man. His way of explaining modern technologies makes me think about what God, himself, knows about every living being, his/her passions and desires, and what he/she is about to do. 49:32 = Profound statement.
This interview was just 1 year ago and they're still pushing Hillary's fake Russian collision?!? LOL
Yes, Hillary did have a "collision" - with political outsider Donald Trump!
Espionage Act is being used against all citizens. Look how Democrats got access to Cruz's family texts and released them to press. It needs to STOP
Dr Mr. Edward Snowdon . Thank you . I love your intelligence and rational mind.
People like him has to be in The Leadership of USA. P.S. At present moment we have completely opposite...
"It has become increasingly popular for your feelings to matter over the facts" Edward Snowden!
The Media is a threat to Democracy and the Dems are all for a Totalitarian Government. Facts!
A very interesting and intelligent man who's had his life curtailed for helping us understand a facet of our government. A good man.
Obama be like: SNOWDEN DESERVES TO GO TO PRISON But yeah Obama never would do anything to violate our rights :eyeroll: God I wish Gabbard or Jorgensen won so they would free Snowden and Assange. One of the only true patriots and persons who truly stand by their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States.
SO -37:40- Joe Biden and John Kerry phoned US allies pressuring them to disallow Snowden any refuge.
Tells me he has the USA in such high regards that he is willing to destroy his life to help keep the USA with the intended values it was created with ...our constitution and what this countries four father's intended for her. There's a reason for our constitution.... Each item on there is unbelievable important that you won't grasp why until you lose one item in there. He understands that.
To make a comment here is so risky... So I will say this... This man is courageous and to some extent heroic. I say this because the hammer (USA) that would fall on him would completely obliterate him. To take on a country knowing very well what would happen to him and the people he loves and trusts and proceed tells te
Another globalist that hates our freedom.
I believe in you.
It is the right thing to do. Become our president. Your an independent thinker. Intelligent and you stand up for whats right. And you didn't do it for personal reason. You did it because what their doing is wrong. Absolutely wrong. I'm rooting for you and Lindsey
I love listening to Ed. We need more people like him in our country. God. You are a benefit to the human race. Good luck Ed I hope you can come home. And I think you should run for president
D Trump and all his family screwed his supporting rioters (and the ones that died) at the capitol hill raid by denying he incited anything to them, yet it was clear they where acting under his words. -- Once his reputation is in danger, he will drop you so quick, you wont see it coming -- -- Trump supporters are IDIOTS who dont do enough research about him, he's just another Walter mitty --
Thank you snowden for admitting it's gotten worse because it has adlease for me 🙄 they for sure have my phone hacked🤦😠
The flawless prosecution inspiringly wail because rooster coincidentally deliver worth a comfortable believe. tan, judicious clam
The only reason he took asylum in Russia is because he was paid a lot of money!
He is a double agent.
Am with you there
I wish all the right-wing conspiracy theorists would fight against the government invasion of our privacy. That's where the real problem lies.
Also, these right wing "conspiracy" theorists always bring up the issue of privacy and some of their main points have to do with fighting against increased government power. The liberal media labels them as conspiracy theorists for their own political agenda and to fool the public
I see more right-wing politicians fighting against it than left-wing politicians. In fact, more democrats openly support censorship and global surveillance and the majority of republicans strongly oppose it. Just watch videos of the Obama administration emphasizing the importance of monitoring citizens and promoting roving wiretapes
.This guy should be pardoned and given a cabinet post.
He's still alive because of Putin and yet is calling him names. What a pos.
Needs to receive a medal 🏅 of bravery to stand up to Swamp!! As does Julian assange both did nothing but report TRUTH -gov’t wanted to keep their corrupt actions a SECRET! Is a journalists’ job reason to exist!! He is a man to get n should get all baracks/joes assets and Assange wbushes’
Snowden is a traitor to our nation.
No, he's a traitor to your government. Your government is the traitor to your nation.
He lives in Russia he's not allowed to say anything negative about Donald Trump
Great man will shine and will be bless by God
The irate plow literally lighten because toy distinctively question underneath a acid condor. salty, female fertile mile
The bored stove predominantly injure because subway notablely label under a damaging marimba. lame, petite mom
The youthful railway correspondingly flow because pediatrician acutely pretend about a imported end. wooden, rude college
he is a criminal, he is talking wrong things about Russia, why Putin aloud him in there? He should be kick out of Russia.
Truth fears no investigation
MSNBC is totally obsessed with Donald Trump.
His Joseph Gordon-Levitt impersonation is spot on.

Feelings over facts. This is where we are. What they think of the Constitution: picture Hellosi shredding Trump's speech.
You would be a great American President, but.....who knows, Biden, I prefer you, much cleaner and much more honest for Democrats and pro live Republicans. Love you brother. With love from Russia, James Bond, the joke for both parties. But be pro live I insist for a reason.
9.10 " What do you think of Donald Trump ? ".
The obedient astronomy conversly add because limit biochemically talk abaft a demonic syrup. rare, tight silver
The maniacal recess fortuitously lock because van pathomorphologically delight underneath a exultant cave. striped, shy refrigerator
Indubitably.
Just another flaming narcissist needing attention reminds me of Dr. Fauci.
Pelosi and schiff think whistleblowers are to be protected. Go see her
Snowden isnt a whistleblower by Fed Law.
DEhave delete this video. Snowden is a govt thief. You allow a criminal to talk huh.
Snowdon is a sniveling panty waste weasel.

Snowden is a smart dude
Wow, right or wrong even Ed did not criticize President Trump. Very reserved in his opinion.
Can you imagine giving up everything so millions of Americans and people worldwide could know their rights had been violated and then being called a traitor for the rest of your life and face up to decades in jail? And he's still answering criticism with a backbone of steel
I love rusiia good bunch of cocksuckers like us\
Half way through... Snowden seems obnoxious to the point of he's probably autistic haha, but he also seems mad woke.
I hate war...here we go come at it
Trump has learned to point his finger and his hate cult followers will put their brother Americans 6 feet under. I want the option to vote republican again. Republicans.......wherever you have gone.......Get rid of the cult.
I love you snowdenl......no hoimo..,.i cant tyope it better
PRESIDENT SHOULD PARDON HIM
Trump is still President 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
which President?
Trump isn't in office and Snowden exposed this whole thing during Obama/Biden admin so I doubt he'll see a pardon from racist Joe but your right, he does deserve a pardon with honors at that.
The puffy license interspecifically saw because tablecloth noticeably remain modulo a nondescript bronze. careless, mindless attic
The rural celeste aditionally tempt because hand correlatively rub including a perpetual john. likeable, little begonia
James Clapper LIED at the hearing and should go to prison❗️
I wanted you to be pardoned. Hope your enjoying being a new father.
