"Uhmmm ... civil disobedience ... if that's true, follow the same course as other great practitioners of civil disobedience: come back and face a trial for what you did. That's what others before you have done. And non e of those practitioners of civil disobedience EVER handed over secret documents to foreign countries and harmed the United State government. Think about that, spyboy."


Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-New York)
