In 1971, Raskin received from Daniel Ellsberg, documents that became known as the Pentagon Papers. Raskin put Ellsberg in touch with New York Times reporter Neil Sheehan, whom Ellsberg had first met in Vietnam.

If Nixon had smugly showed off a photo of Daniel Ellsberg on which someone had added a crudely-drawn folder labeled "SEKRETS" I'm pretty sure the media would've been all over it.
Is the consensus among mainstream journalists that the White House slandering a man they delivered into slavery using a crudely manipulated photo in the president’s grasp in the Oval Office is just not a very newsworthy event?

The Espionage Act has been used to criminalize whistleblowers and journalists for years.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s landmark reform bill, the Daniel Ellsberg Act, aims to stop exactly that.

What better way for our Daniel Ellsberg Chair on Government Secrecy to further our late co-founder's legacy than by exposing proof that the administration is lying to justify atrocities abroad?
There are some extremely brave FOIA officers in the federal government - and this is a reminder that they often want to get the information out as badly as the public wants to read it.
In response to @freedom.press FOIA request, ODNI declassified & released an intel memo contradicting a key claim Trump made to invoke the Alien Enemies Act
Confirms reporting the Trump admin characterized as false & used to justify weakening limits on leak inquiries

Each sheet was stamped TOP SECRET. Each copy he made was a federal felony.
