020 - Free Daniel Hale: Whistleblowing and the Despicable Espionage Act

We talk about the woefully underreported story of Daniel Hale, who leaked The Drone Papers to the press, and was arrested under the Espionage Act in May 2019. We go on to discuss whistleblowers, dissent, the persecution of Eugene Debs, US drone programs, and more.CORRECTION: The most successful third party run in US history was the Progressive Party in 1912, not Eugene Debs' Socialist Party run during that same year.Stop the Prosecution of Drone Whistleblower Daniel HaleTell Lawmakers to Reform the Espionage ActGeneral RecommendationsJNM's Recommendation: You Too Can Have a Body Like Mine & Intimations by Alexandra Kleeman (@AlexKleeman)JD's Recommendation: The HostFurther Reading, Viewing, ListeningEx-NSA official charged with leaking classified drone documentsFormer intelligence analyst charged Government Moves to Block Alleged Drone Whistleblower's DefenseVIDEO: Trump Steps up War on WhistleblowersDaniel Hale arrested for being the source of The Drone PapersJoe Biden told countries there'd be 'consequences'Joe Biden’s Love Affair With the CIAAll the President’s WhistleblowersThe Espionage Act's Troubling OriginsWhen America’s Most Prominent Socialist Was Jailed for Speaking Out Against World War ILocationless LocationsEvery show-related link is corralled and available here.Heat Death of the Universe - @heatdeathpodPlease send all Letters of Derision, Indifference, Inquiry, Mild Elation, et cetera to: [email protected] us Fan MailSupport the showSupport: patreon / buzzsprout
