In this interview Pete Buttigieg says he's "troubled by" Obama's decision to commute Chelsea Manning's sentence. And he agrees Snowden exposed abuses but said "the way for that to come out is through Congressional oversight, not through breach of classified information."

@micahflee I read about that a while ago and it would be a deal-breaker for me too, if I lived in the US or could vote there. I hope that guy doesn't win the primary.
I don't agree with a fair bit of the things Chelsea Manning has done, but her whistleblowing is not one of those things. She served far more time in prison than any whistleblower before her. What else would Buttigieg want??
