>he’s the only one who spoke up.

Not true.

(1) Russ Tice: USAF intelligence analyst

(2) William Binney: NSA Technical Director.

(3) Thomas Tamm: DOJ lawyer

(4) Thomas A. Drake: senior executive at NSA

Each of them had a senior position relative Klein and Snowden and all these cases were shut down and you seemingly never knew about them.

So what was different with Klein? He surfaced the information so widely that it couldn’t be contained by the “machine”?

He wasn’t bound by the same clearance/confidentiality.
