Remember the sentence commutation? It is now time for him/her to be released. I use both genders because I can't figure out which is really applicable now.

Chelsea Manning will be released from military prison next week, according to a statement from her attorneys Tuesday.

A former Army intelligence analyst and transgender woman, Manning was sentenced to 35 years in prison after being convicted in 2013 of stealing 750,000 pages of documents and videos before leaking them to WikiLeaks -- one of the largest and most embarrassing leaks of classified information in US history.

But then-President Barack Obama commuted Manning's sentence in January, thereby providing her with an early release date.

Expressing relief about the impending release on Twitter Tuesday, Manning said: "Freedom was only a dream, and hard to imagine. Now it's here! You kept me alive <3"

Manning has been forced to serve her sentence in an all-male military prison despite a request to transfer to a civilian prison.

"For the first time, I can see a future for myself as Chelsea. I can imagine surviving and living as the person who I am and can finally be in the outside world," she said in a written statement. "I hope to take the lessons that I have learned, the love that I have been given, and the hope that I have to work toward making life better for others."

Manning's representatives could not provide her exact release date when reached by CNN, but a statement from the White House in January said her prison sentence is set to expire on May 17.

"Chelsea has already served the longest sentence of any whistleblower in the history of this country. It has been far too long, too severe, too draconian," Manning's attorneys, Nancy Hollander and Vincent Ward, said in a joint statement. "President Obama's act of commutation was the first time the military took care of this soldier who risked so much to disclose information that served the public interest."

News of Manning's commutation set off harsh criticism from some Republicans and intelligence officials who opposed the move in January, but Obama said she had served a "tough sentence."

Bullshit. Made tougher by "its" own malfeasance. Our country isn't what it used to be. We show way too much mercy on those who don't deserve it.

that is really too bad that it will be back in society...

as if we don't have enough problems

And I bet he's a welfare case until the book deal, movie and icon status of some Progressives somewhere.

He tried to commit suicide at least twice in prison. No suicide watch out in society. I won't do death pools, but if I did I'd bet suicide not book deal.

There ain't no Chelsea about it.

Bradley Manning, convicted felon and all-round nutcase is who you're talking about.

I give him a year before he kills himself or someone does it for him.

FIFY.

Yes, I don't care if he 'identifies' today as a woman, sewer rat, kangaroo or a toilet brush. Unless he has somehow changed his chromosomal alignment, he's still a dude, just sans some of the original equipment.

I bet he will be on the Ellen Degenerate show within 3 months.

In military prison how the hell does he have access to Twitter?

He's a limp dick of a man.

Born that way.

Will die that way.

Let him stew with the rest of the filth in the liberal cesspool.

And people wonder why people hate lawyers?

Disclosing top secret information and endangering American lives is NOT in the public interest. I'd like his lawyers to name one person that the release helped, just one, that's all.

He could have been a whistle-blower by going through the proper channels, had his concerns heard and addressed.

Fuck HIM, I hope HE chokes to death on a giant dick.

If he settles anywhere outside of California, I doubt his future is likely to be too rosy. Reap what ya sow pal.

I hope he gets run over by a garbage truck as soon as he steps outside the gate

Well, at least he will be out of Kansas.

At least we won't be paying for his hormone shots any more.

Idaho falls isn't that big a city, I'm sure there's a number of folks that will like to say hello to him/her/it.

Coward and traitor.

And a highlight of Obama's legacy.....

I thought being a traitor was punishable by death and not much else? What else did I miss in my government classes during high school and college?
