I see your point, and I disagree. Conceptually I don't think the difference between a whistleblower and someone who has committed treason comes down to whether or not there is an official investigation or not, because we have no promises of being made privy to any of that information as citizens, regardless of what the findings are. That is why this woman sharing this information is remarkable to us, because a whole host of people have evidence of it and the public is still kept uninformed pending "an investigation." Having worked in government before, I can say with confidence that the difference between a criminal suit or not is the difference between forgetting a flash drive or remembering to delete a folder in time or not. If we truly prosecuted everyone who "jeopardized an investigation" or "leaked information" or did something insecure at the expense of the US or its citizens, we would probably have to fire and try 80% of government employees.
Samantha Lee Yes. So I'm sure you also agree that comey coming out with the Hillary investigation during the campaign, which she wasn't complicated in, is interference yes.
Maybe treason is not the correct word technically, but a lot of people are going to use the word "traitor" in this context and we must consider the merits of that accusation. Especially because doing something "to compromise an ongoing investigation" and "jeopardizing US security" on that basis sounds a hell of a lot like treason. And I agree there is a difference between intention or negligence, but not when that person has a duty of care. If a person has a positive obligation to keep their mouth shut in virtue of their position and are too incompetent not to do anything, that is absolutely just as blameworthy as intentionally leaking info. Either way, my argument does not rely on finding out the truth of that discrepancy. I am saying that plainly, that the entire concept of criminally punishing those who reveal information kept from the public (and which affect the public), is contradictory and philosophically contrary to what I believe the position between state and citizen should be. Based on this she is a whistle blower, and she should not be held responsible for revealing the failures of others who would wish to keep those failures private. The way I see it she has simply restated some matter of truth on a public forum, which should have been on a public forum all along.
Sole Sista, I concur. There will be powerful people who will forcefully push the 'treason' agenda with every living cells in their DNA to put this woman down, and try with all their might to drown any question with regards to the legitimacy of the election based on this 'leaked information', as illegitimate due to the nature of its leakage. Regardless of what people might argue about the morality of 'whistleblowing' and 'criminal act of treason', sadly, I think, politics will get the better in the law's eyes on this woman's efforts, no matter her intentions. They say people have the right to know, but what she did was definitely against the law, so it's hard to see any good will come out of this. I can only hope this'll push some people to hasten the investigation efforts really, for everyone's sake.
Trevor everyday you are growing more and more comfortable into your role. Keep up the great work and let the laughter ensue or as Trump would tweet "Enjoooooy!!"
So many reasons why i won't travel to the US, but privatised air traffic control is pretty much the nail in the coffin. I will start planning routes that won't even fly through US airspace now.
"Too many Times we've been asked to circle around instead of landing" I burst out laughing so hard my gum fell out of my mouth, Bra T your killing me!!!
i like this guy, he is pretty funny, his jokes a bit more unique, compared to other hosts who use most boring jokes, and plain swearing and insults against Trump.
Infrastructure is actually the only domain where I would expect that Trump has indeed some experience. However, on the other hand, you would have to fear that he ignores his conflict of interest and awards the contracts for the renewal of roads and airports to The Trump Corporation, because at his candidacy announcement in 2015 he said, _"I can build those things for one-third."_
Is no one else worried about the PRIVATIZATION of Air Traffic Control? The people are already the most stressed on Earth, with the pressure of turning a profit there are so many mishaps in the making. Also, the airports are still gonna be publicly owned right? So what, now we're gonna pay profit hungry businessmen to do a job that's already well done? We're gonna lose so much money like this.
Ive been a bit out of the loop being locked up in my office this week so i barely read up on the news and just glanced at all this ... i thought reality winner was a website :/
The sad thing is that this young woman will suffer for revealing the truth but the guilty parties will NOT suffer any consequences for corrupting the US democratic process.
For ten seconds I was waiting to hear the name of a woman who won a reality TV show. Also... We all know that one day there's going to be a oscar nominated film about Reality Winner and what she's done. Step on up Chloe Grace Moretz make sure you're free that year.
A minor point, but the dude with the batons is a Marshall. A Controller sits in the tower with the radar and binoculars and stuff. Also, privatised Controllers?! Yikes!
Wait, Reality Winner is her actual name??? Whoever is writing this Idiocracy knock-off we're currently living in has a REALLY on the nose sense of humour when it comes to naming the characters. (See also: Professional truth twister Kelly-Anne Conway and actual oil tycoon Rex Tillerson)
i thought she is the winner of a reality tv show
Same here ... what a name!
Or her parents are alcoholics
The air traffic controller Trump is too spot on ...hahaha
Trevor Noah, literally the best human to make this living political hell pure comedic gold
I thought she was a former winner of some reality tv-show. I didn't know why that was relevant, though.
same here
Michael Tøth Exactly
"So much reality winning folks, so much winning" read that in Trevors Trump imitating voice.
richard Winning! (Charlie Sheen's voice)
America needs Reality now.
and they got it now!
Jake Green this guy is misinformed. don't listen to the sheep of the media.
hey temperature is still feeling under the weather.
What do you mean Temperature is under The Weather ... She's only 15
He brought Condom, don't worry.
"But, Condom's our kid!"
"3 way"
"They're having a three way??"
"No, 4, because '3Way's the next door hottie."
Reality Winner.....? Seriously?
Only in America.
right? i swear to god. X"""D
I want to be her boyfriend so I can say "I'm fucking reality"
OMG, that's gold
...followed by "she bites often. And when she doesn't bite, she sucks..."
Whistleblowers should be rewarded not punished

Yes! Julian assange should be rewarded. A knighthood maybe?
«The Trump administration is now officially at war with Reality»
-Stephen Colbert
As is putting articles in sentences for some people, apparently.
Now? They've been fighting that war since the Crowd Size Battle started on January the 20th.
MexicanTacos 07 Your grammar is shit
Trump is not a clown, he's The clown.
No.YOU are mexican tacos and a Canadian flag?Are you bipolar?
"When reality hits US hard, literally"
Is this the real life,
Is this just fantasy...
caught in a landslide
no escape from Reality
Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
Because I'm easy come, easy go
little high, little low
Any way the wind blows
Doesn't really matter to me, to me
"The Runway is clear..." hahahahahah. That was great. Love it.
Holy reality fucking winner
Maybe its her online name....right? its got to be!
if only her real middle name is fucking
If only that was true.. :D But that's her real name
Reality always wins out in the end. And so it begins. the release of the cheesy jokes! lol Bravo Girl! be strong.
M A I don't believe your child exists
Trevor everyday you are growing more and more comfortable into your role. Keep up the great work and let the laughter ensue or as Trump would tweet "Enjoooooy!!"
If Trump was going to pick a superhero name, it would be reality winner.
Grace Hart I actually like "The Orange One" very much
Wouldn't he be a supervillain? But one of those obvious ones like 'Russian Spy' spelled backwards.
...or perhaps 'Russel Ian Patsy' (he goes by Russ).
HE IS THE COLOR OF THE SAFETY VEST OOOOOOOOOMG
So many reasons why i won't travel to the US, but privatised air traffic control is pretty much the nail in the coffin. I will start planning routes that won't even fly through US airspace now.
Hehehe, True that. Trevor more power to your elbow!
After "reality winner" I honestly can't wait for the day the president "Anal Probe" will be elected....and if he is gay it's just a double win.
Aye fuck you bitch!
jevry I wanna know too!
That sounds like a actual name just pronounced differently Annel Probe
Anal Probe has already been elected. He is in office as President of the US right now
Ahhhhhhhh, sick burn Tsiaps!
"Too many Times we've been asked to circle around instead of landing" I burst out laughing so hard my gum fell out of my mouth, Bra T your killing me!!!
Watching this while my name is literally Winner...😂😂😂
that name tho 😂
Fadel Alsadah I know someone named Technology and Internet
Haru Yanto ,what ? how?????
Samah Sparkfly I ask myself that everyday...
"La-sha (La dash sha). The dash don't need to be silent."
-still the most hilarious name I've read.
Oh, Trump can't stand anyone else being called "Winner"
"I'm inheriting a mess." My "president's" hair is a mess, what he's doing is carnage to my country.
The air control traffic gestures were over the top 😂😂😂😂👏👏
When I first heard the news, I started to google what kind of US show/lottery is reality winner. I thought someone cheated with the results of it.
Trevor is literally the only reason I will listen to the news
Trump the air traffic controller :) Gold Team-Trevor, just gold (with a shade of orange).
Wow, Trump just yaps about infrastructure but none of what he says tells us anyth--- wait, her name is Reality Winner?
Argumemnon yeah, exactly this is what's wrong with peo- wait what?!?! Reality winner?
Trump is the best thing that ever happened to comedy shows
Young Reality Winner, we shall watch your career with great interest.
i like this guy, he is pretty funny, his jokes a bit more unique, compared to other hosts who use most boring jokes, and plain swearing and insults against Trump.
Who the hell in the audience is laughing like she is playing tag and is about to be caught?? Who?!....Everytime.....*high pitched aahahaha*
He's the colour of a safety vest 😂😂😂OMG I'm dying
I love Trevor
I would actually like to see Barnacle Week.
I sprayed my coffee thanks to that last part 😂😂😂
the traffic controller bit ... i laughed so hard ^_^
we live in a simulated reality
Infrastructure is actually the only domain where I would expect that Trump has indeed some experience. However, on the other hand, you would have to fear that he ignores his conflict of interest and awards the contracts for the renewal of roads and airports to The Trump Corporation, because at his candidacy announcement in 2015 he said, _"I can build those things for one-third."_
Haha omg that was hilarious. watching from the UK. I love all these videos you are posting about trump!
I am SO HAPPY Trevor took over the Daily Show. He's doing an amazing job!
I'm convinced someone is pulling the greatest practical joke in the history of the galaxy on us.
Popcorn or Trump's hair - priceless!
Winner is my hero. I mean is this reality?
"Who knew air traffic control could be so complicated?"
Trevor's trump impersonation is my favourite cracks me up every time
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Trevor is just brilliant...
Is no one else worried about the PRIVATIZATION of Air Traffic Control? The people are already the most stressed on Earth, with the pressure of turning a profit there are so many mishaps in the making. Also, the airports are still gonna be publicly owned right? So what, now we're gonna pay profit hungry businessmen to do a job that's already well done? We're gonna lose so much money like this.
Air traffic controllers are the people working inside the tower, the ones with the light sticks are just ground crew.
I seriously need to stop eating when I watch these
the air traffic edit LMFAO :D :D :D
I think on voice, Trevor's Trump impersonation is the best spoof.
Ive been a bit out of the loop being locked up in my office this week so i barely read up on the news and just glanced at all this ... i thought reality winner was a website :/
Omg that air traffic control ending XD
i fuckin lost it at the air traffic hand cones ahhahhaha
for the record, that's a marshaller, not an air traffic controller. lol
best episode of all the series
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha aahhhhhhhhhhhh,,, you did it again Trevor loool
YEAHHHHHHHH ! Comey week !!! Can wait...
The sad thing is that this young woman will suffer for revealing the truth but the guilty parties will NOT suffer any consequences for corrupting the US democratic process.
Thing is... I kind of think "Perception" is a beautiful sounding word, might actually be a nice name.
I would subscribe if this is all they did... this is the best set of videos ever
Awesome!
In reality, she's a winner!
Trev you are the beast😂😂😂😂
America needs reality more than ever! 😖 That's right I went there.
so if Reality Winner was to participate in a reality show and win, the'd anounce her as "The Winner of this reality show is Reality Winner"
As an Ontarian, I plead you, PRIVATIZATION IS THE DEVIL!
OMG as English is not my first language I was sooo confused with "Reality Winner". What a name lol.
Privatize air traffic control? At least I can expect a lot more new episodes of Air Crash Investigation.
Okay that clip at the end was good.
LMAOOO! Trevor funny asf
Trevor is killing it
lolol rotflmao love trump's air traffic control. Hilarious Trevor
For ten seconds I was waiting to hear the name of a woman who won a reality TV show. Also... We all know that one day there's going to be a oscar nominated film about Reality Winner and what she's done. Step on up Chloe Grace Moretz make sure you're free that year.
A minor point, but the dude with the batons is a Marshall. A Controller sits in the tower with the radar and binoculars and stuff. Also, privatised Controllers?! Yikes!
How can they be lost? They're on instruments!
That one woman laughing so loud in the background is me on a daily
lol lol when I see things like this I know the universe is teasing us mocking us 👏😹😹
Someone should cloud source her defence, raise millions, to keep her safe.
I bet someone out in America is gonna be called covfefe
omg this is better than netflix....
You turn this insanity in to sanity Noah. A very humorous sanity at that!
😂😂😂good job
She's like a chosen one born to one day help US defeat an enemy of reality
Bringing you a brief interruption to Trump tiny hand jokes... The fringe on the lady behind Trump wowwww 3:45
Call it COMEY OVER WEEK.
Wait, Reality Winner is her actual name??? Whoever is writing this Idiocracy knock-off we're currently living in has a REALLY on the nose sense of humour when it comes to naming the characters. (See also: Professional truth twister Kelly-Anne Conway and actual oil tycoon Rex Tillerson)
Took me a ridiculous amount of time to realize it wasn't actually Trump speaking...
-- I live in Hong Kong and the local Chinese people choose an english name, these include: Milk, Microchip, Santa, Fanny, Zeus, Circle,
How about 'Reality Bites'?
Everyone better get extra buns in because you're all gonna be eating nothing burgers again. lol.
I've spent days trying to figure out this story. Just couldn't understand what Leigh winning a reality tv show had anything to do with anything.
Air traffic control by Donald Trump? Now that's really dangerous!
RIP all kinds of freedom and truth.
i dont really like This show política agenda, but i found that last montage really good, for a few brief seconds i saw comedy come back to this world.
Jesus Christ I thought she was a Reality TV show winner. Laughed my ass off.
love that slight of hand he used
the documents had nothing to do with Russian military getting into the Floridian election.
it was an idea, lol
