Reply #9: We are here! Are you there to support us when we speak out? [View All]

[Edmond Dantes]

Have you read Jesselyn Radack's story? Have you donated to her legal defense fund? Have you at least written her an e-mail thanking her for her personal sacrifice in the name of justice?

I don't mean to be rude, but put your money where your mouth is. This courageous woman did the right thing and is now being persecuted for it. When other government insiders hear her story, and realize that whistleblowing is a thankless exercise in self-destruction, they are not especially inspired to speak out.

You can help change that perception by helping the Jesselyn Radacks of the world get back on their feet. Open your wallet and BE GENEROUS. Let government insiders know that if they speak out and are persecuted for it, you will be there to support them -- ALL THE WAY.

Ellsburg has the luxury of being able to speak out because his personal trauma lies in the distant past.

And, no, I am not Jesselyn Radack. Nor am I a friend of hers. I HAVE sent her an e-mail of support and I'm keeping my eyes open for possible job opportunities for her. I hope you do the same.
